"The way they steal the limelight is really unique..."

Having just brutalized the Celtics, Liu Manggang saw that his rogue value, which was improving at a rapid pace every day, rarely increased by 100,000 points from 7 to 9 in two hours, and then stagnated.

Because all the attention was "robbed" by the Pacers and Pistons!

"This is just right for us. We have been too popular recently, which is not conducive to our continued development of small ball tactics." McGrady didn't have any bad feelings about this matter. Although it was a fight between two strong teams and the matter was quite big, McGrady

I feel a little regretful. I beat the fans and the police department opened a case for investigation. It will probably lead to a long-term suspension for most of the two teams. It may be that the two strong opponents will collapse. It is a bit regretful for Tracy McGrady.

However, from a rational point of view, McGrady feels that this big incident is a good thing for the Hawks to slowly develop a new system.

"Tch!" Liu Mang rolled his eyes at Tracy McGrady and went to take a shower and go to bed. He had to leave Boston tomorrow morning and had three consecutive away games to play.

This first-round virgin, who was the one who cried and shouted not to play small ball, is now playing more happily than anyone else!

Liu Mang didn't expect that the Auburn Hills Palace incident would still happen! This made him feel a little regretful. This season was originally an opportunity for the Eastern Conference to turn from decline to prosperity. It was possible that Jordan's six championships in eight years would "drive away" the Eastern Conference stars.

Going to the west led to an opportunity for rise after the decline of the east.

In the original time and space, even without the Hawks, this season O'Neal and Webber traveled east, which resulted in the 76ers having a certain strength. This mainly made the Heat become the favorites for the championship. Coupled with the already strong Pistons, and soon

With the Pacers entering their heyday under the leadership of Coach Carlisle, the Nets' Three Musketeers, the Wizards' Trident, the Celtics with their twin stars reuniting, the Bulls' youth team, etc., the Eastern Conference seems to have reached the moment of re-emergence.

Ordinary playoff teams may not be that critical. The key is that the Heat, Pistons, and Pacers are the three favorites to win the championship, and they are all teams that are truly capable of defeating the favorites in the Western Conference. It seems that they can no longer beat the OK combination.

The Western Conference was on top because of the Auburn Hills Palace incident, which caused the Pacers to collapse. The Pistons were lucky to be at home and would definitely not beat their own fans. No one was suspended for too many games and the integrity of the team was maintained, so they only

The Pistons and Heat are left as the two favorite teams to win the championship.

At this time, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Heat have only been at their peak for two years, and only the Pistons are the only team left that can maintain their combat effectiveness for a long time, and this will indeed be the case in the future. Therefore, the Eastern Conference, which has just seen a return of stars, has begun to lose stars again.

The Pistons are indeed strong, but it doesn't make sense to just be the Pistons. The Pistons are a super team in the Eastern Conference. They compete in the Eastern Conference Finals every year. There is only one team in the Eastern Conference that can beat them, and it's not certain yet.

Which team it is, so the stars would rather go to the strong teams in the Western Conference to compete, which is a bit suspenseful at least.

In today's time and space, it is still obvious that the West is strong and the East is weak. Although the Lakers have collapsed, the Suns have risen, and if Kobe is still with the Lakers, he has a future. There are still many more top-level players in the West than in the East.

Moreover, in the original time and space, the Eastern Conference had a chance to rise. It was just a chance. Now, even if there are more Hawks in this time and space, it is just more opportunities to rise.

Liu Mang feels regretful for two reasons. One is that there is one less opponent and the Eastern Conference is much less interesting. The second is that there is an imbalance between the East and the West. The finals will not be a good thing for the Eagles at the headquarters. In the original time and space, Liu Mang

We have seen James reach the Finals for eight consecutive years, a total of nine years, and only win three times. No matter how great the advantage in the Eastern Conference is, facing the Western Conference champion who has fought his way out of the West and is in the strongest state, it is difficult to have a strength advantage.

.

Liu Mang originally thought that due to his influence, this incident might not happen, but it still happened.

At this point, Liu Mang doesn't think too much. It's time to sleep, it's time to train, and when it's time to play the game, just play normally. And as McGrady said, this makes them too high-profile during this time.

The momentum can cool down, and the obscene development...

The only unhappy thing was that Liu Mang saw that his rogue value had finally increased sharply, and all his limelight had been taken away!

…

…

The next morning, Liu Mang flew to New Orleans with the team. Before boarding the plane, Liu Mang picked up a sports newspaper.

Officials released details of last night's unlived brawl between the Pacers and Pistons, and quickly gave the public an explanation.

It was said to be an explanation, but in fact it was a suspension and other circumstances, and the league immediately provided details of the punishment.

Only then did Liu Mang realize the difference between the Auburn Hills Palace incident in this time and space and the original time and space.

Since Stephen Jackson went to play for the Pistons for a year, he had a bad relationship with Billups who held the ball a lot. When Billups and Stephen Jackson faced off, Billups took advantage of Stephen-

Jackson's weakness in lateral movement was average. When he rushed to the basket, Stephen Jackson pushed Billups angrily and gave Billups a big foul.

Because the Pacers were already leading by more than 20 points, Ben Wallace was very unhappy and helped Billups, pushing Stephen Jackson. Artest was unhappy and came to help Stephen Jackson, but when he saw Ben-

With Wallace's size, he still didn't take action directly. He is a man who can bend and stretch, but he didn't give in. Artest did his signature veneer and rubbed it intimately with Ben Wallace...

Because of two pushes from Stephen Jackson and Ben Wallace, players from both teams crowded together and started shoving, triggering a violent conflict between players from both sides. Detroit Hammers Chris Bosh came up to stop the two teams.

, there was no fight, the coaches of the two teams came up and persuaded the players on both sides to go back to the bench.

That's what happened. At most, it was a matter of a second-level flagrant foul and a few technical fouls. At this time, Mark Green, a man who destroyed the Pacers, stood up and threw a water glass at Artest...

Then O'Neal Jr. started one-on-three, and Stephen Jackson started one-on-five mode. The two rushed into the audience and started fighting with the fans. Artest chased the man named Green, and O'Neal Jr. and Stephen Jackson

Help Artest beat the people around who wanted to help Green, but... the man named Green was mixed in with the other eight people. The one who was beaten the worst by Artest was not Green...

It looked like there were a lot of people gathered around, but in fact it was mainly three against nine.

Finally, the security came, the police came, and the three players who hit were taken away. As the person who caused the conflict, Ben Wallace was also taken away, as well as Billups, and the unlucky player who wanted to

The Pacers player who went to the fan zone to start a fight was Fred Jones, who competed with Liu Mang for the slam dunk title. Because he was too strong, as soon as he entered the fan zone and before he could get close to Artest, he was surrounded by a group of people.

The fans mobbed him.

Fred Jones was the only one among the players who was beaten and bleeding, and he was sent to the hospital with nine injured fans without even recovering his hand, and became the "player representative".

This is no longer just a stadium brawl, it has also involved criminal cases, that is, the crime of intentional injury, the crime of seeking sexual trouble, the crime of gathering to fight... and other serious crimes.

Because the matter is so serious and has a bad impact on the public, the Detroit police have to remain impartial. After all, it is a matter of concern across the United States and even the world. So not only the players, but also the fans are facing prosecution. The players can be released on bail pending trial, but the fans have nothing to do if they don’t have money.

Already.

The police still have to investigate, such as whether the fan who threw the water has a criminal record, whether the player has a mental disorder, etc.

The league immediately imposed penalties. Ron Artest, who is currently ranked third in the MVP rankings, averaging 25 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists per game, and has a good team record, was banned from participating in all subsequent games.

Whether he can still play games next season depends on the police investigation. If he is jailed for a few years, the league can directly negotiate with the players union and the team to terminate Artest's contract.

Stephen Jackson and Jermaine O'Neal, as those who assisted in the brawl, were both banned from participating in the remainder of the regular season.

Several other players involved in the pushing and shoving were suspended from one to ten games.

Ben Wallace and Billups were exempted from criminal prosecution because they did not participate in the final fight. Billups was simply unlucky and was arrested by the police without doing anything and was also suspended.

For one game, Ben Wallace was suspended for ten games and can appeal.

The most unlucky person was Fred Jones... his nose was broken by a fan, and he was bleeding profusely and was sent to the hospital...

Mark Green, the representative of the fans, was banned by the NBA from purchasing tickets for any NBA-related games. The police were also preparing to charge him with up to six charges. Of course, Mark Green was found to have committed violent crimes, and other people involved in the fight were

For eight fans, league officials have also temporarily banned them from purchasing tickets for any NBA-related games.

This time, almost all of the suspensions were targeted at the Pacers players. Who said they were playing away games and they were the ones beating up the fans!

All of these can be appealed, but specifically, it depends on the police investigation report, the decision on whether to prosecute, and the final judgment to decide whether to reduce the punishment.

The No. 1 player in the Eastern Conference and the No. 5 player in the Eastern Conference were fighting together. All the fans' attention was focused on this incident. Liu Mang looked through the news, and almost all of it was about this incident.

Only then did Liu Mang realize that this incident had such a bad impact when it happened. Almost all sports media were criticizing Artest for chasing the fans and causing a group fight. Athletes from other sports also criticized Artest.

Especially to discredit black players.

Liu Mang was just surprised by this, and agreed with McGrady's suggestion that this would give them a chance to grow in obscene ways.

However, Liu Mang doesn't want to be upstaged!

Seeing that the rogue value is increasing rapidly again, enough is enough! We must beat the last one to vent our anger!
Chapter completed!
