Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 131: huge controversy

The advantage of the Nets lies in the interior. The Thunder's strongest point is naturally Durant. However, it may be a period of rest that cools Durant's hand. In the first three attacks after playing, Durant did not hit the ball. In, and West's mid-range jumper helped the team pull the score back to 110, and the two sides entered the same starting line.

Harden returned to the court after a two-minute break, and the Thunder returned to the stage where the strongest perimeter trio led the team's offense. At this time, the Thunder's tactics were simpler. At this critical moment, the Nets did not choose the previous defensive strategy. After all, that kind of defense is risky and easy to be easily scored by the opponent, which affects morale.

The Nets used a one-on-one defense to target the Thunder, but instead it was the way of the Thunder. What team is the Thunder? There is no team in the league that is better at singles than them.

At the critical moment, in the face of the shooting space given by Bledsoe's defensive shot, Westbrook, who had previously made two zero shots from beyond the three-point line, shot again. This time, the ball fell accurately into the basket. Westbrook, who made a big mistake in the first half of the fourth quarter, made up for it and helped the Thunder regain the lead.

Westbrook, whose morale has soared, made another shocking move on the defensive end. George singled against Harden at the top of the arc in the penalty area. Westbrook inadvertently touched George's elbow while running. A suspected foul move was not whined. For the foul, Harden successfully stole the ball and threw it forward. After Westbrook got the ball, the front was flat. George waved his arm to look at the referee to express his dissatisfaction. However, the referee did not respond.

As well as the powerful splits, the difference was widened to five points.

West, Lopez and others stopped George's protest, but the assistant coach failed to hold back the dissatisfied Stevens. Stevens ran to the technical table and discussed with the referee about the Westbrook knockout just now, trying to keep his tone gentle, gentle, and gentle.

The image of Marshal Stevens has always been gentle and calm. Take last season, even if there was a conflict with the opponent, Carter led the team. This time may be his most emotional one, as can be seen from his somewhat hideous face.

If you want fairness, come to sports, if you want absolute fairness, don't come to sports. This truth. Everyone in the sports industry understands, but when things happened at such a critical moment, when a Nets team had the hope of dealing with the Thunder to the end, the surge of adrenaline at that moment was absolutely unavoidable.

Take two technical fouls in a row and be sent off directly! The referee actually knew that this time the penalty was controversial, but Westbrook had already completed the next attack. In this case, the result could no longer be changed.

In just one minute, the point difference was further widened to 7 points, and the head coach was sent off the court. In the end, this is a young team, and the four main players on the field are still in the rookie contract period. In the face of injustice and chaos, it is difficult to adjust their emotions in time. This is inevitable.

The final score was fixed at 119:131, and the Nets lost the national live broadcast amid boos from the fans. It is precisely because this game is broadcast live across the United States that it is conceivable how much pressure public opinion will exert on the league.

The tnt guests watched the video playback repeatedly when the controversy first appeared. The playback clearly showed that Westbrook definitely clicked on George's elbow and affected his dribbling.

"Obviously, when George was dribbling, Russell's hand really touched Ya's arm. This was indeed an unintentional collision, but it was definitely a foul!" Barkley, who was an athlete, naturally understood. What will be the consequences of a touch in sports, his statement is very clear, this should be the referee's mistake

"But Russell's handling was very smart, and even if he scored on the fast break, it was too late for the referee to change the decision." Kenny Smith said, "There is no problem with the two technical fouls, Brad Stevens. His reaction really hit the referee. In the face of a misjudgment, his handling exposed his shortcomings as a young coach. In fact, in this case, the referee will make up for it in subsequent penalties. If nothing else, he will also Received a Lianmei fine."

Also because it was broadcast live across the United States, there were far more media reporters coming to the Continental Airlines Center players than before. Such a big event happened during the game, and the press conference hall was packed.

"First of all, congratulations to the Thunder for winning this game. It was a great matchup, and the Thunder were good enough. Our players were good enough, but I have to admit that Durant made me feel nothing. There's no way." Stevens congratulated the Thunder in a graceful manner.

Regardless of the controversy on the field, the Thunder's performance is definitely worthy of this victory. The Thunder dominated the Nets for most of the game.

"In the fourth quarter, Westbrook's defensive bet on a controversial ball affected the result of this game..."

"I don't think it's just an influence. I think it should be called determining the outcome of the game. This penalty and the subsequent results directly determine the outcome of the game. Many times, the referee hopes that he will become the The protagonist of the game becomes the focus both inside and outside the arena, just like this one!" Fines are fined, and Stevens earns 3 million a year, and if he really doesn't see him, he can't afford it.

Regarding the misjudgment encountered by the Nets in the live broadcast of the game in the United States, even the most biased media have to admit that this is definitely a misjudgment, but at the same time, many media are also using spring and autumn brushwork to emphasize one point. There is no problem with Vince's technical foul penalty, and his controversial remarks after the game are irresponsible!

In fact, the power of the media has played a huge role in the public. When all the pundits and the media are rhythmically trying to reduce the impact of this misjudgment, most people will forget what they see in their eyes and instead believe what they hear.

The league's fines for Stevens are also harsh enough. They contradicted the referee twice, fined $1 for technical fouls, and made inappropriate comments after the game. The $, the total $, directly set a new record for the NBA's fines against coaches.

In fact, Stevens set more records than that. Stern and the referee committee even considered suspending Stevens for the first time in the history of the league. Fortunately, in line with the principle of doing more than one less thing, Stern did not implement this idea in the end. After all, a fine It's just a matter of personal forgiveness. The public only sees an amount of money and won't pay attention to it, but if they make the first suspension against the coach in history to make a mistake, it will be a pillar of shame in the future.

Of course Jiang Mingliang would not let Stevens pay the money. The whining at the Stevens press conference was also for the team, wasn't it?
