Versatile Point Forward

Chapter 310 Continued Fermentation
Stadium violence has always been a topic that can easily cause disputes, especially when Ye Feng was a Chinese.What he said at the press conference soon appeared on major media platforms, causing an uproar.

Of course, no one dared to deny what Stevenson did to Roy before that. This kind of thing would be exposed immediately after a little verification. Anyone with a slightly normal IQ would not lie about it.However, Ye Feng's punch still divided all the people who eat melons into two distinct factions. One side thinks that Ye Feng did a good job and helped his teammates get back on the field, while the other side thinks that Ye Feng should not be there no matter what. Fisting and kicking opponents on the court, he can appeal to the league after the game, instead of simply and rudely solving the problem himself.

Soon this big discussion spread to the Chinese media.In fact, some Chinese media paid attention to Ye Feng very early. After all, his performance in the NCAA is very eye-catching, and UCLA is a top prestigious school. Although he followed his parents into the United States, he is still a Chinese in essence. Those reporters who originally wanted to do some NCAA news at will felt like they had been beaten to death, wishing to dig out the life stories of the eighteen generations of Ye Feng's ancestors.

Later, after Ye Feng joined the NBA as the No. 6 pick, domestic attention paid to him even more, especially when he led a trailblazer full of injuries to the finals last season, his domestic reputation At the peak, everyone rushed to tell the news that besides Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, there was a third Chinese in the NBA, and he was also a swingman!Although Ye Feng is still an American citizen and has an American basketball background, his basketball skills basically have nothing to do with the domestic half-money. The fans are still very excited. After all, he is also a Chinese with black hair and yellow skin. man!

But this time when the boxing opponent happened, someone immediately jumped out to accuse Ye Feng of ruining the country's image and being a sinner of the country. Some media called for the report of Ye Feng serving the country, and lashed out at him. People who didn't know thought Ye Feng had committed some crime against humanity, and even his own compatriots condemned him verbally and in writing.

In all fairness, most fans don't feel much about stadium violence, not to mention that Ye Feng only punched Stevenson once, but there are always people who want to hype this up with various ulterior motives. It is to cut off Ye Feng's chance to join the Chinese men's basketball team.There are still insiders among them, including some retired celebrities and basketball association officials. The reason is simple, because Ye Feng is Ye Ning's son.

They are very disgusted with Ye Ning, even after so many years, as long as they think of the man who once dominated the Spanish league, they can't help but want to tremble.This is fear, and fear brings more panic. They don't want to see Ye Ning have anything to do with Chinese basketball, and neither does his son.When Ye Ning was training with the national team, he was seriously injured and eventually retired, and there was more than one person who ridiculed him.

However, there is still a newspaper that stood up and said something fair. It was the "Yangcheng Basketball News" that was founded in the 80s. Firstly, their founder had a relationship with Ye Ning, and secondly, they were unwilling to block a good player. The way to serve the country.Therefore, among the officially published newspapers, the reporter of "Yangcheng Basketball News" appealed to everyone to look at this matter rationally, and not to associate Ye Feng's actions with the face of the country. He only represents himself, and now he is still An American citizen has neither the qualifications nor the obligation to represent Chinese basketball, so there is no need to go on and on about this matter endlessly.

In fact, there is a sentence they didn't say, the performance of the Chinese players is too gentle, it's time for a person to show the domineering Chinese players!Although what Ye Feng did was inappropriate, his reasons were very strong and could hold water, so maybe his punishment would be mitigated.

Ye Feng didn't know that there was an uproar in the country over his matter, Ye Ning and Guo Yu were very concerned about this, but they didn't plan to tell Ye Feng about it.Especially Ye Ning, deep down he still hopes that one day Ye Feng will be able to put on the jersey of the national team and play in world-class competitions for China. It is not good to give the Chinese people a negative image now, but things have already happened, so we have to treat them as Didn't see it, it's enough to do your own thing well.

Soon the NBA officially issued a ticket. For this matter, the Mavericks and the Trail Blazers often argued in front of Stern. Everyone felt that they were victims, which made Stern dizzy every day.After consulting the on-duty referee and technical officials, Stern patiently listened to the opinions of the two teams, and stayed up all day and night before dealing with the players involved: Although Stephenson was the one who was beaten, the cause It was him who interfered with the opponent's players by various means on the field, which was also the cause of the whole incident. He was given an 8-match suspension. The suspension was counted from the first game after returning from injury; Stadium violence must be severely cracked down, with a 15-game suspension and a fine of $20000 to serve as an example to others.

Both parties were not satisfied with this penalty decision. The Blazers believed that Stevenson had crippled Roy, and the suspension of only 8 games was not enough to punish him. Actually only need to suspend 15 games?What kind of severe blow is this?Even adding a $2 fine is just scratching the itch.But facing the representatives of the Trail Blazers and Mavericks, Stern slapped the table, saying that this decision is the final penalty decision of the league, and will not be overturned just because of the relevant personnel's sloppy words, and ordered the management of the two teams After the layer goes back, the penalty decision is executed.

In fact, the Mavericks don't care. Stevenson is not an important piece in the team's tactical system. It doesn't matter if he is suspended for 8 games. He can replace it with other players at any time.However, Ye Feng's suspension caused McMillan a headache. It's not that he couldn't guess that Ye Feng would be suspended, but at this time, he was a little at a loss. Of course, the Blazers had someone to make up for it, but now Ye Feng is already on the team. The absolute core of both offense and defense, can Batum achieve his level?

McMillan was skeptical, but what else could he do?Ye Feng will be suspended for 15 games, and for these 15 games, Batum can only be the team's starting small forward.
