Chapter 98 Three Idiots
The media reporters at the scene wanted to interview Ye Heping, but Ye Heping was a little unstable and had to give up.

Just then, Lakers general manager Kupchak received a call from NBA commissioner David Stern.

"Those three stupid referees, I promise to God, if there is no contract, I will fire them immediately!"

Stern, of course, was dissatisfied.

Tonight's game was so dramatic, breaking records in a row, the Lakers achieved a 20-point comeback without Kobe, Ye Heping's quasi-quadruple double, and the last spiritual roar... It can be predicted that this game will be a hot topic for fans to discuss for a long time in the future.

And this has inexplicable benefits for Stern to develop the Chinese market and promote globalization.

But it was all ruined by the referee.

Since you can tolerate James' walking for the sake of watching the game, why can't you tolerate Ye Heping's triple-double?

Anyway, they are all dispensable. Without technical means, who can see the time difference with the naked eye?
"..."

Kupchak didn't speak. There were things Stern could say, but he couldn't.

Who in the league doesn't know that referees wear the same pair of pants as the president.If I really took over, wouldn't it be the same as scolding Stern?

Moreover, Stern, an old fox, goes to the Three Treasures Hall for everything, and he should go to the Lakers owner Bass if he has anything to do. The call to himself is definitely not to say "Good night!"

Sure enough, Stern quickly got to the point.

"I heard that Ye Heping hasn't participated in the post-match press conference yet? Anyway, tonight, he must attend. Quadruple-double, career night, leading the Lakers to comeback after losing their core and trailing by 20 points, he should be qualified."

"You have to minimize the impact of those three idiots, and you Lakers can also maximize the expansion of the Chinese market, with no disadvantages."

Kupchak nodded. Old Bass had said the same thing before, so he naturally agreed.

But Tang Shuai has been protecting Ye Heping, saying that Ye Heping has just turned 19 years old, let him concentrate on playing, and Kupchak does not want to argue with Tang Shuai.

This evening, with Stern's backing, it's done!
Kupchak quickly came to the locker room. When he saw Ye Heping, he found that Ye Heping had changed into casual clothes after taking a shower, and had fallen asleep in his place.

In order not to disturb him, the other Lakers players were all careful, and no one made a scene.

The moment Kupchak came in, Divac shushed him.

"The kid is exhausted, don't disturb him!"

Seeing Ye Heping's pale face, Kupchak hesitated again and again, and finally backed out, picking up the phone again.

"President, I don't think tonight is suitable... Don't worry, I will talk to Ye Heping... You know, we also need more exposure from him!"

The two chatted for a long, long time.

……

Meanwhile, social media exploded moments after the game ended.

"Congratulations, my emperor, for mentioning the youngest triple-double record!"

"After breaking the youngest record of 1000 points and 2000 points, James broke the youngest record again. Is this guy going to break all the youngest records?"

"The Lakers are a bit miserable. The scoring record belongs to Kobe, and the triple-double record belongs to Odom. They were all robbed by James."

"The worst thing is Ye Heping. He was almost a triple-double, and he blocked a triple-double. A year earlier than James, he was declared invalid by the referee. There is no worst, only worse!"

"Miserable? The Lakers won and the Cavaliers lost. Do you mean the Lakers are more miserable? Losing the game, so what if they break the record? It's a black spot for a lifetime. Besides, the opponent's core is injured, and the lead is up to 20 points. I'm overturned. I don't know what the meaning of this triple-double is?"

"Upstairs, Zhan Hei, is this jealous of my emperor?"

"Jealous? No need. Do you know how old Ye Heping is now? He just turned 19. He still has a year to go. He only needs to get a triple-double. The record is his, and James will never have a chance to break it!"

"Hehe, is it so easy to get a triple-double? Jordan has 25 times in his career, and Kobe has only 13 times (as of January 2005). If he misses one, he may never get it."

It was really difficult to get a triple-double in that era, and it was not as difficult as in the small ball era. After all, defense was paramount, and the total data was inherently low.

"Fool, Ye Heping almost got a quadruple-double tonight, what is a triple-double, sooner or later!"

"Okay, okay! What's there to argue about in the future, let's talk about what has happened. I'm just curious. Was Ye Heping's roar really frightened Gooden's last ball?"

"Ye Heping yelled 'roll' in Chinese, or Chinese characters are cheating! I am a Chinese fan, and I am proud!"

"No, no, no! You should have noticed that at the last moment, Gooden has been helping James to get rebounds, and he didn't think about winning. It's really Gooden's success, and it's Gooden's loss.”

"Even if he doesn't want to win, the ball is just a matter of stretching out his hand, and Gooden is a famous tough insider in the 02 class. He is tougher than Stoudemire and Nene, so he shouldn't be scared like that."

"You don't know? Gooden and Ye Heping almost clashed in the preseason game. At that time, Ye Heping defended him without scoring a point. I guess there is a shadow in my heart."

"It's still a bit unreasonable."

"Ye Heping: If you are blocked by me 6 times in a game, you will also have a shadow."

"It's the truth upstairs!"

"Hahaha, really, of Ye Heping's 9 blocks, 6 were given to Gooden, it's too targeted."

"Brother Ping in society, people don't talk too much, just do it when you are upset, 666!"

"So don't mess with Ye Heping. Remember Boozer who was killed in seconds, and Stoudemire who was almost beaten to tears? Gooden is considered light."

"Golden: Lord, I was wrong!"

"You said that the Cavaliers will fight the Lakers in the future, and Gooden will face Ye Heping again..."

"Fuck, you didn't say anything, why do I expect so much?"

"To tell you a piece of news, Kobe may come back in a month. What's more, that game was the Cavaliers playing the Lakers 2.0."

……

The next day, the Lakers players organized a group to visit Kobe's house.

Although it was a serious injury, it only involved the right ankle and did not need to be hospitalized, and Kobe also had a private doctor, so after the examination, Kobe went home to recuperate.

"Little guy, you are great. Although I was not on the scene, I have been following the game."

When Kobe saw Ye Heping, he boasted greatly.

"You don't need to worry about my injury. The team will make an official announcement soon. It will take about 4 to 5 weeks to recuperate. I can still catch up with the All-Star Weekend."

Kobe seems to be in a good mood. It's only a month, about 14 or 15 games, and the impact on the team will not be too great.
