NBA Building Cardinals

Chapter 94 History repeats itself (recommendation ticket requested)
Although the outside world is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the construction of the team is being completed step by step according to their own ideas.

But Liu Rui didn't have the heart to pay attention to everything in the outside world.

Because today is already November 2004, 11! !

Liu Rui was staring at the TV on the hospital bed.

Although my condition is almost better now, I don't want to be discharged from the hospital so early.

Because the deal between Duhon and Ariza has not been reached, and the team's main center, Brezek, is still under suspension.

Even if he returns to coach now, he will definitely not get any good results.

Therefore, after waiting for everything to be in place, Liu Rui is making a complete comeback to coach the game.

But today is obviously a special day. Liu Rui stayed in front of the TV very early, staring at the live broadcast of the game intently.

The Pistons sit at home to usher in the Pacers game! !

Today in the previous life, the largest conflict in NBA history broke out in this game.

It is also the conflict with the most suspensions in NBA history.

Due to the incident at the American Airlines Arena this season, it can be said that it shocked the American sports world at the time.

But because of the incident at that time, it was the fans who took the initiative to attack first.

It is obvious that the security work at the scene was insufficient, which led to the subsequent legitimate self-defense incident.

So no matter how many complaints Stern has, he can only go through the procedure of punishment and cannot say anything openly.

But after that, Stern also made it clear that the league is a place to play basketball, not a place to wrestle! !
Therefore, the league now has a zero-tolerance attitude towards wrestling and fighting on the basketball court.

This also caused all teams to restrain their actions in the game at this juncture.

Because once there is a serious foul like before, the referee is afraid that the players on both sides will lose control.

Therefore, the player's foul will be whistled as soon as possible.

The original rule should be after the Pistons and Spurs in this year's finals.

Due to the terrible ratings, Stern wants to let the league enter the offensive era to improve the ratings of the league.

So since then, fouls will be whistled for slightly larger moves in the game.

That is to say, it has entered the era of the dividing line that people in later generations call.

And the evolution of this rule has gradually developed into the so-called body hair foul, and the shooter has benefited from it, and it has also caused the proportion of three-point shots to rise linearly.

But in this life, due to the early outbreak of the incident at the American Airlines Arena, it also caused the league to make some reforms in advance of the rules of the game.

Although it is not as painful as later generations, for some big moves that may anger players on both sides, malicious fouls will definitely be whistled.

This also means that Jordan's law has completely become history in the league from this time on.

And today is the day when the incident at the Palace of Auburn Hills broke out. Liu Rui knew very well that with Artest's character and temper, he would never think about the current period on the court.

Presumably this incident will still happen nine times out of ten.

But I am afraid that the final result will be completely different from the previous life.

Because of the occurrence of the American Airlines Arena, the league believes that it has seriously affected the image of the league.

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

If the Palace of Auburn Hills incident breaks out again, Artesty will still take all his anger on the fans as in his previous life.

Then I'm afraid that in this game, the penalty of the two teams will be more serious than in the previous life.

Stern would definitely be furious, and maybe even angry.

In the American Airlines arena incident, it was because the fans provoked first, which made Stern angry and had no place to vent.

And let the old guy Robert take advantage of the league and rob the Heat of a draft pick for next year.

And if at this time, the Palace of Auburn Hills arrives as promised.

This is Artest's first initiative to the fans.

Although the fans threw things first, at this juncture, the league doesn't care so much.

After the alliance just said that it will put an end to all violent incidents, you are slapping the alliance in the face at this juncture? ?

I'm afraid Artest, Wu Sheng and others who did it will end in a very miserable end.

And in the previous life, Da Ben, who took the lead, didn't have multiple penalties.

The reason given by the league at the time was that Big Ben did not directly participate in the brawl with the fans.

So they were only banned for six games, and Billups, Campbell and others of the Pistons were only banned for one game.

But the Pacers were miserable. It can be said that it was the year closest to the championship, but they were ruined in this fight.

But if this is still the case in this life, I am afraid that the number of suspensions will rise in a straight line.

And this conflict happened at the end of the game, so in the fourth quarter, Liu Rui stared at the TV intently.

Although the defensive game was very ugly, Liu Rui was still fascinated by it.

Even more carefully than looking at your own team.

This made Chen Xiaoxiao next to him wonder why he was going crazy.

"Hey, if you go further, you will get into the TV if you go further."

"I really don't understand why you are so careful when you have already led by so many points. If you don't know, you think the Pistons are your team."

Chen Xiaoxiao glanced at Liu Rui with disdain.

When my team is playing games, I don't care at all.

He would rather use his laptop to play games than watch his own team's live broadcast, but now he is so fascinated by watching other teams. I really don't know which team's head coach this guy is.

"Hush! Don't talk, watch carefully, a good show is about to happen."

Liu Rui even put the orange in his hand aside, and asked Chen Xiaoxiao to lower his voice and watch the game carefully.

"Hey, I really made myself look like a prophet. Fortunately, a good show is about to happen. What good show is there?"

"You said that if there is a good show, there will be a good show?! After being fooled twice, I really regarded myself as a god, and really thought I could make a promise??"

Ignoring Liu Rui's nervousness, Chen Xiaoxiao picked up the chicken wings next to him and continued to eat.

With Liu Rui's gradual improvement, his vacation may have entered the countdown stage, so Chen Xiaoxiao cherishes this time very much.

With public funds, Liu Rui and he can eat whatever they want, play whatever they want, it's like a fairy day! !
And with only 45.9 seconds left in the game, the conflict came as promised.

At this time, the Pistons were already 15 points behind the Pacers, and there was no chance of a comeback.

In this game, Ben Wallace's data is not good, so he is still preparing for this dunk.

But during this dunk, Pacers forward Ron Artest fouled Ben Wallace rather rudely.

He directly hugged Wallace's dunk.

However, it may be because the Pistons have no hope of winning, Ben Wallace is in a very bad mood and angry.

In a rage, he pushed Artest hard, which pushed Artest several meters away.

After pushing Artest, Daben was still angry, and he was about to step forward to start a theory with Artest.

But then, more and more people discovered the situation here.

At this time, the incident at the American Airlines Arena had just ended, everyone was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled away the big book.

The Pacers, obviously aware of Artest's temper, rushed to protect Artest.

Even the referee was in a cold sweat from fright and hurriedly stopped the conflict.

Artest stood where he was, watching more and more people rushing over, and he might have a little worry in his heart.

Under the full resistance of Rasheed Wallace, the angry god, the flames of the two sides were gradually extinguished.

And Artest was also persuaded by the referee and others to return to the field, lying alone on the referee's bench, maybe he wanted to calm down...

　On this day in history, November 2004, 11, the NBA Palace of Auburn Hills incident broke out.

　　Don't ask me why I didn't participate, and I didn't help change it.

　　Because there is no ability to participate in it at all.

　　And in public or private, it is impossible for the protagonist to stand up and say something in advance.

　　Because if this incident is prevented from happening, history will change, and the Pacers who have not been suspended will reshuffle the Eastern Conference playoffs.

　　If this makes the champion change hands, it will be a big deal.

　　The entire ranking and draft will be divorced from history, and the protagonist's biggest guard of honor will be desolate.

　　So I chose to watch the fire from the other side, just to watch the excitement.
