Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area
Chapter 685 The Emperor of Extrajudicial Executors
In the second game of the shortened season, the Lakers still won.
It's just that the meaning of this game is a little different. After all, the NBA league headquarters is in New York, and as soon as the game was played at the Madison Garden Arena on the front foot... the league headquarters on the back foot immediately received the game status information.
Are the Lakers playing the Knicks again?
Li Shengli committed another terrorist attack?
Stern was going crazy, his brain was spinning at high speed, trying to sort out all these things.
Going forward, the league has just experienced the largest shutdown in history, and now the game has just started. It is time to restore the blood and restore the order of the game in an orderly manner, and maintaining stability is the official first priority. As for the violent conflicts during the game...
Looking at the major sports leagues in the United States, competition has always been the main theme. It goes without saying that friction and controversy among players mean that there are topics for speculation, which are detrimental to the enjoyment and attention of the game. Elevated, but the bottom line is... friction cannot escalate into violence!
…
Look at this fight...
Although no multi-player team fight broke out, Stern could see clearly that this thing was more terrifying than a multi-player team fight. Basically, Li Shengli led the Lakers' fighting team to stare at one person to death and cripple him.
Although it is aimed at the recently infamous madman Sprewell, who almost strangled his own coach to death.
Although Sprewell did have some dirty tricks during the game, which touched the bottom line of the rules.
But the problem is that since the development of the alliance, it has become an organization with continuously improving rules, and beyond the rules... Stern finally realized that Li Shengli had organized a group of extra-legal enforcers, which to a certain extent replaced the operation of the alliance rules. and penalties.
Speaking of punishment…
Sprewell had to deal with it because of the foul play; the Lakers' extrajudicial enforcers also had to deal with it because breaking the rules was not officially allowed.
But what to do?
Stern's head is going to explode!
If it were any other team, they would definitely have an iron fist to hold down all the perpetrators, and the decision on whether to punish or ban would be made soon, but that can't be done now.
…
Is there any news from the Knicks? What did James Dolan say?
Sprewell suffered a torn ankle ligament and a fractured thoracic vertebrae. Although Li and the others gave him a breath of relief, he will basically be reimbursed for this season, and it will depend on his personal recovery next season. As for more Lan's side...has a lot of opinions. After all, this is not the first time Li Yi led his people to beat the Knicks. You know, I'm talking about a different meaning of beating!
The assistant reported the situation, and Stern had an even bigger headache.
Knicks owner Dolan has an opinion, and this is the first question.
Although New York is rich and profitable, but to put it bluntly...losing games every day and being beaten every time, the devil is willing to watch this game, so it is understandable that Dolan has strong opinions.
A big opinion?
Very big!
Hold it down, I will talk to him when I find time, but for now, let him hold back the media resources in his hands, Li... don't touch him! Stern frowned, and the Los Angeles Lakers and Li Shengli were the second A question.
James Dolan, it’s easy to fool people with money, and the Knicks, a big money-drawing ship, won’t be able to capsize for a while.
But it’s different on the other side. The Knicks are still only one of the 29 teams in the league, but the market behind Li Shengli is related to the future value-added of all teams in the league, not to mention that the recent market development has been going very smoothly. The league can't condemn it and let domestic fans buy it, right?
Li Shengli is the key node in everything.
Stern cried, took out a roll of paper, and had to wipe Li Shengli's butt once!
So to sum it up...
Sprewell had several moves that were dangerous and caused injuries during the game. Even if there was no whistleblower during the game, they would have to be added after the game. The other one was Rodman. His fighting skills and back body slams were too brutal. No matter how severe the punishment is.
As for Li Shengli.
He fell headlong into a loophole in the league's rules and became a player with a bug that the league could not repair. There was no valid evidence to determine that he had the intention to subjectively hurt others. However, according to the principle that it can be done without prohibition by law... there is still no punishment. To Li Shengli.
But this isn't important either.
What Stern wants to wipe Li Shengli's butt is not about punishment or lack of punishment.
Now he wants to do his best to block all possible and heavy media attacks. After all, for the market behind Li Shengli... foreign media reports really affect this emerging market and emerging fans' first impression of the league, and even this is He was the starting point for all actions in handling this incident.
Hold Dolan down, Li, he can't touch.
Also tell Bas that he will handle this matter first, and our officials will cooperate with him.
In addition... this may also be a good thing. Let's release some news first, which we discussed before, to appease both parties first, and then talk about it after this season.
…
It’s only the third day of the new season and there’s already a commotion!
Fortunately, Stern was decisive in dealing with problems and very stable at the helm, and directly determined the direction of handling. On the other side... the post-game press conference between the Lakers and the Knicks also began. Amidst the uproar from all the media and fans, The Lakers didn't hold back at all. The fighting team all attended, and the press conference immediately became excited.
joke? !
Li Shengli attends press conferences not as diligently as playing games. This opportunity is rare.
Although the team will have requests, Li Shengli, as the absolute core, also has the right to refuse, and this time he led the team to attend... The reporters were not calm at first. The venue was in a mess. If the press officer had not maintained order, these reporters would have You can put a microphone into the mouths of a group of villains and listen to their voices.
What makes Li Shengli strange is...
Unlike before, this press conference even assigned him a young man and a fat man to serve as a bilingual translator in Chinese and English.
Isn't this common?
Li Shengli thought carefully...
Why do you need a Chinese translation for interviews with American media? It’s not like you don’t speak English yourself?
If there is an interview with domestic media, the audience will definitely be domestic fans. Then just speak Mandarin. Why bother to take off your pants and fart? In fact... Li Shengli thought differently. This fat translator is the tool for the Lakers to spread the word to the domestic market. , is not solely responsible for Li Shengli’s translation.
…
I didn't think anything more about it until everyone was in place.
Under the arrangement of the press officer, the interview questions for this press conference began, and Li Shengli pulled a fat translator. He looked about the same age as himself, and he didn't know where the management got him.
Translation? Brother, who called you? Li Shengli asked.
Me? Hearing Li Shengli take the initiative to greet him, Xiaopang was so excited that he was at a loss. He held Li Shengli's big cattail leaf fan with both hands and shook hands. He immediately said: Yes, yes, yes, I am a translator, a professional translator. I will help you in a moment... Let’s not talk about it for now, holy shit~ Lao Li, I finally see you, I’m so excited!”
Wait a minute...me? Lao Li? Li Shengli pointed at himself and asked.
Yes, we all call you that in our country now. You are now a national idol. You are so red and purple. When I heard that you were translating for you, I was so excited...
No, brother, please calm down, okay? I'm here, why are you so excited? Li Shengli patted the chubby guy and said, Also, what's Lao Li? Why do you call 'Lao' when you're not forty or fifty? '?
Age has nothing to do with it. It's just a matter of speaking habits. That's what domestic fans call it. If you don't like it, I'll think of another one for you. But several other members of your Lakers team also have it... You're just like your old man. bar.
Laoba?
Damn it, Barkley?
But how does the word 'your old man' sound like a curse? After all, 'old man' is a word with the same pronunciation and different synonyms, so it is easy to misunderstand it without looking at the literal meaning. At this moment, Li Shengli's face darkened, and he didn't know where the management could find it. Come on, this magical translator who emphasizes his professionalism, doesn’t he even consider the context?
No, no, don't give me nicknames, your skills...
Lao Li, you don't believe in my translation skills. Really, I...
Okay, okay, I believe it. The interview has started. Please sit down quickly and we'll talk about it after everything is over.
