ace marshal

Chapter 1160
"A mere NBA head coach wants me to apologize to you. It's really whimsical~"

After chasing Lan Shengli away, Sterling returned to his study, looking at the turtle in the tank, thinking.

Having said that, Sterling's expression was still a little unsettled.

"What's going on with the public opinion now, has it calmed down~?!"

Sterling quickly called his legal team and asked.

"Mr. Sterling, the situation seems to be much worse than expected. The team of lawyers hired by the NBA seems to be planning to take us directly to court. If that happens, we will be very passive~!"

The lawyer responded with a worried tone.

"How could this happen~?!, then you should quickly find a way~!!!"

When Sterling heard this, he immediately became furious.

"The current situation is really not easy to handle. After all, the recording is placed there, it is very difficult to handle ~!!, we are really passive now ~!!"

The lawyer responded.

"Trash, a bunch of trash~!!, this matter can't be settled, what's the use of you~?!"

Sterling cursed very angrily, and hung up the phone directly.

You can tell from Sterling's tone that he hasn't figured out the current situation.

There is no sign of remorse at all for the very blatantly racist remarks on his own recordings.

"In the morning, I took everyone's thoughts and doubts to find Sterling, and met Sterling. We also expressed the current thoughts of our entire team, for the best interests of our players, for the best I have done my best to make Sterling realize his mistake~!"

After Lan Shengli returned to the team base, he explained to the players.

The team members heard it, but they didn't speak.

Seeing Lan Shengli's sincere state, the players all knew that Lan Shengli had really tried his best.

Lan Shengli should not be blamed for what happened today.

"I broke my promise, I didn't do what I promised you guys, I'm really sorry~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to speak, directly bowing and apologizing.

When the team members saw this, they felt bad. After all, the current situation was not caused by Lan Shengli.

"Perhaps you still have the idea of ​​strike, or this is the last way for you to fight for your own interests. If doing so can really help you, I think I will support you in doing so, absolutely will~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to speak. This passage has already shown Lan Shengli's current position, that is, he will no longer hinder the players from going on strike.

"Thank you, Coach Blue, you are a good coach~!!, although we failed to fulfill your promise, we have all seen your efforts. Even for you, I decided to give up the strike and continue to participate in the fourth round. The game~!"

Harden hesitated for a while, then spoke.

"The number one scholar has said so, so I agree~!"

When Hill heard this, he immediately followed suit.

"The captain said so, and I agree~!"

"I agree too~!!"

"I agree too~!!"

Soon, the team members echoed, and everyone gave up the idea of ​​strike.

Seeing this, Lan Shengli's expression also changed from very guilty to moved.

"Everyone~"

Lan Shengli looked at the crowd, and his eyes immediately became moist.

Although Lan Shengli failed to convince Sterling, Lan Shengli's behavior moved the players.

In this way, the strike storm passed, but the cloud of racial discrimination hanging over the Clippers has not faded, and the players will continue to play the fourth game under that cloud.

The two sides still wore the training uniforms backwards, still threw them into the middle circle of the court, and still protested silently.

"Sterling, rubbish~!!!"

"Sterling, rubbish~!!!"

"Sterling, rubbish~!!!"

The auditorium is still very lively, the fans are shouting and cursing, making the atmosphere of this game still so weird.

After the game started, the Clippers were still out of shape.

Shooting hard shots, breaking out of bounds, passing the ball wrong, the players still couldn't concentrate all their attention on the court.

On the Mavericks side, "Old Demon" Jason Kidd stood up.

"Swipe~!!!"

"Swipe~!!!"

The outside three-point shot is flawless, and the fast break after receiving the rebound is also very threatening to pass the ball.

Under Kidd's gossip, the Mavericks once again quickly achieved a double-digit lead.

"Several experienced players of the Mavericks are slowly coming to their form. After the fierce battle with the Trail Blazers, their physical fitness has undergone an adjustment period. After losing the first game and winning the last game by a big score, They have adjusted to the best state, but this state is very difficult for our Clippers~"

Lan Shengli thought to himself.

Although the current situation is very complicated, Lan Shengli still thinks about the game as much as possible and finds a way to win.

At the end of the halftime game, Kidd had already scored a quasi-triple double of 8 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists.

The Mavericks also ended the half with a 15-point lead.

In the second half of the game, the Mavericks still firmly held the advantage.

"With a double-digit lead, their winning percentage in the regular season is 80.00%. This is a very terrifying statistic~!"

Lan Shengli thought to himself.

"In addition to the lack of systematic training these days, the team's state is really terrible~"

Lan Shengli continued to lament.

At 116:95, the Mavericks made another victory in the away game. They also won two away games in a row, tied the big score at 2:2, and regained the home court advantage.

The Clippers are now at a disadvantage in any aspect.

In the following game, the Clippers were defeated by Dirk Nowitzki's god-like 40 points at the American Airlines Center.

The Mavericks held the home court and got the match point.

"Maybe tonight is our last game of the season, maybe not, anyway, I hope we can play the style that belongs to the Clippers~!!, Come on, guys~!!"

"3, 2, 1~!!"

"Clippers~!!"

Although the encouragement of Lan's victory before the game and the efforts of the players made the Clippers seem to have a lot of motivation to win the game, the reality is cruel.

Today's Clippers are like a spring that has lost its elasticity, no matter how hard it is, it will have no effect.

"Swipe~!!!"

Watching Nowitzki hit a three-pointer without pressure, the Clippers are basically drifting away.

105:99, the Clippers fought to the end, but still failed to bring the series back to Dallas.

The Mavericks fell behind 0:2 and won four games in a row, just like the way the Heat defeated them to win the championship. They eliminated the Clippers, the only hope in Los Angeles, and entered the Western Conference Finals.

Before the recording gate appeared, the Clippers played two games in a row with an unstoppable momentum. After the recording gate appeared, the team's situation took a turn for the worse, losing four games in a row and being out of the game.

For Lan Shengli and his Clippers, it was a bit wronged to be out in this way.
