NBA Building Cardinals

Chapter 96
With the reoccurrence of the Auburn Hills Palace incident, NBA president Stern, who was far away at the New York headquarters, completely lost his temper.

At this time, less than a month has passed since the incident at the NBA American Airlines Arena.

The league has only emphasized some time ago that this kind of incident must absolutely be prevented from happening in the future, and in order to express the determination of the league, Stern even made changes in his defensive actions in advance.

But the Pacers and Pistons broke out on such a large scale in this game, even worse than the incident at the American Airlines Arena.

The league obviously underestimated the temper of Big Ben and Artest.

Because of the incident at the American Airlines Arena, at most it was pushing and shoving between the players of the two teams.

As for the conflict with the fans, the reason was that the fans turned into the field privately to prevent the injured Liu Rui from being sent to the hospital.

And took the initiative to attack the players of the Bobcats, which was resisted by the Bobcats players.

But the occurrence of the Auburn Hills incident is entirely due to the Pacers Artest and others taking the lead in attacking the fans.

It even caused serious physical injuries to the fans. At present, two people have been sent to the hospital, and the situation is unknown.

When leaving the field, O'Neal clashed with the audience in the stands again, causing an old man to fall to the ground.

The entire scene of the Palace of Auburn Hills was full of violence, and the degree of violence was definitely the worst in Nba history.

This made Stern, who was far away in the headquarters, angrily throw the computer in front of him to the ground.

"Check it out for me!! If the complete process and solution of this incident is not sent to me within 2 hours, you will all get out of here!!"

The angry Stern roared loudly, smashing everything he could see in his office, venting his anger.

In this kind of atmosphere, the people below didn't want to stay longer, because every extra second seemed to be a torment.

After hearing this sentence, he hurriedly exited the room and started to investigate the specific circumstances of this incident.

In order to promote the NBA to the world, Stern traveled to many countries alone.

It can be said that the NBA has been promoted step by step to the current situation.

Although the American Airlines arena incident broke out some time ago, the entire American Airlines arena incident can be said to be caused by the fans.

Although at the end of this incident, it also brought a certain negative impact to the alliance.

But this kind of attention has also brought great benefits to the alliance.

Afterwards, anyone with a heart found out that the incident was due to the irrational and excessive behavior of the fans.

Let the platform of the alliance be more like an innocent lying gun.

And the league treated the fans generously afterward.

It also attracted countless traffic and compliments, which can be said to be a free hardcore advertisement for the alliance.

But this time, the occurrence of the Auburn Hills incident really made Stern very angry. In contrast, this was completely an incident of beating fans.

The impact of this incident cannot be described as bad at all.

And because of the incident at the American Airlines Arena, it brought huge attention to the Bobcats.

It also made Liu Rui, the head coach of the Bobcats who was punched in order to protect the players and almost died in Huangquan, became popular in the basketball world overnight.

So this makes Stern uncertain whether the Auburn Hills incident happened on purpose or by accident.

But it is undeniable that this is simply a bunch of second-hand goods! !

After this incident, all the teams called Stern, but Stern didn't answer them all.

Among them, Herbert Simon, the owner of the Pacers, even made multiple phone calls, but Stern chose to ignore them all.

Because the occurrence of this incident has completely risen to a very bad level, Stern does not want to engage in those useless intrigues with them anymore.

As the president of the NBA, he has every right to directly issue punishment decisions.

But this time, Stern only wanted to impose heavy punishments, and he would never allow his years of hard work to be ruined.

Otherwise, if the league repeats this kind of thing over and over again in future games.

Then there will be fans who dare to come to watch the game live? ?
Are the fans here to watch the game, or to be beaten? !

If a consumer place cannot even guarantee personal safety, then who would spend huge sums of money in such a place.

And if the shareholders of Nba want to overturn the decision made by Stern, they must take a vote.

And at least more than half of the shareholders vote against it in order to be overturned.

But this time the matter has risen to such a height, as long as there is no brain problem, no one will stand up to speak for the two teams.

On the contrary, the owners of other teams in the league are bound to make trouble for the Pacers and Pistons.

Because of their behavior, the interests of the entire alliance have been violated.

If the NBA is labeled as bad, reckless, and beat fans.

That will greatly reduce the attendance rate of the NBA and directly affect the income of all teams.

If it is just like the American Airlines arena incident and does not touch the interests of others, then these bosses are happy to sit together, with smiles on their faces, watching the two teams bite dogs.

Anyway, the matter has nothing to do with oneself, and the world of the rich is idle, and they are willing to watch the excitement.

But when this matter has violated their own interests and may bring them irreversible losses.

They will definitely tear off the masks on their faces immediately and suppress them most ruthlessly.

In the previous life, the racial discrimination incident of Clippers owner Sterling is the best proof.

Because Sterling, the owner of the Clippers at the time, was exposed to a racially discriminatory recording.

And this recording also made NBA fans boycott and protest against the Clippers.

At first, Sterling was unmoved, but as fans boycotted and protested, this brought a big shock to the Los Angeles market.

As the news spread, it gradually led to fierce resistance from other fans in the league.

More and more people jointly appealed, saying that if the Clippers owner Sterling is not kicked out, they will never watch another NBA game from now on.

Even if it is only a small crowd, in the face of this loss of fans, the owners of other teams have chosen to stand up and give a kick.

Because of the racially discriminatory remarks, it is no longer related to the first team of the Clippers, and has affected the interests of other people.

At this time, the Auburn Hills incident happened, and the consequences he has brought are far worse than racial discrimination.

At this time, there is no need for Stern to notify at all, and the owners of each team have already moved closer to New York for the first time.

Click!

As a bolt of lightning pierced the night, the sky in New York was thunderous, and the already gloomy sky gradually began to rain lightly.

With the lightning and thunder in the sky, the rain seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.

Depressed weather makes people feel chest tightness and difficulty breathing...

　This event is a real historical event, not a virtual one.
