Chapter 423 Public opinion support, post-match interview
"Oh! Man! Chris was punched out by Chen. It was obvious that Chris picked the wrong opponent. I wonder if he would regret it because of his rash punch. The two of them are not on the same level. It's like
A battle between amateur boxers and professional boxers." Buckley said with some unfinished content.
Feizhu likes to watch fights the most. When he was young, he was a troublemaker. He elbowed Rodman, fucked Laimbeer, threw O'Neal and overturned big dreams...
Kenny Smith said: "Chen's boxing speed was as fast as his speed on the court, and the victory or defeat was decided in an instant."
Barkley did not forget to joke: "This is the second time that Chen has KOed his opponent on the court. If he punches, he will KO. The KO rate of 100% is also a new NBA record."
Kenny Smith said: "Fortunately, Chris seemed to be fine. He regained consciousness after going into shock for dozens of seconds."
Kenny Smith responded: "Chen shot too fast. Chris may not know how he was knocked down. He can watch the slow-motion replay when he wakes up."
Barkley shrugged: "I don't think Chris would want to watch the replay. It's not something worth remembering."
Paul may not be willing to look back at the scene where he was just knocked out, but the fans must be very willing. The radio station is also constantly replaying it. They all know the taste of the fans.
Compared with basketball games, such player conflicts on the field are more exciting for fans. The ratings of ice hockey games in North America are so high. One of the biggest features of ice hockey is that it allows mutual fighting.
In 1922, the NHL introduced Rule No. 56, which regulated fighting in the game. After continuous revisions, it became like this: only bare hands are allowed, the use of sticks as weapons is prohibited, and protective gloves must be removed.
To avoid head injuries, it is forbidden to take off the helmet. Once the two people are separated, they need to follow the referee's instructions, end the fight, and both are sent off for 5 minutes.
Although fans love to watch it, the NBA will definitely not dare to imitate this kind of behavior. Without the protection of helmets and protective gear, these black and hard fights will really cause trouble.
And NBA president David Stern will not allow this to happen. David Stern has always been committed to the globalization of the NBA and will never allow such barbaric behavior to occur.
Chen Yan's statistics tonight were also fixed at 33 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists. After that, the game quickly entered garbage time. Although the Suns lost their leading scorer, they still had Stoudemire and Nash in the lineup, while the Hornets lost their only
An engine. After Paul came off the court, the Hornets' offense was terrible. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't stop it.
As the game enters the fourth quarter, it's time for the Suns to train their new players.
At this time, no one cared about the result of the game. Reporters who were relatively close to New Orleans were rushing here. Everyone was waiting for the game to end to interview Chen Yan.
In the end, the Phoenix Suns defeated the Hornets 117 to 93. Everyone was obviously more interested in the fight than the result of the game. Major media reported in the comment area, and NBA forum fans were discussing Chen Yan KO Paul. American fans
The focus is on whether Chen Yan has practiced Chinese Kung Fu, while domestic fans are more complaining about CCTV's schedule.
CCTV chose to broadcast the Rockets vs. Spurs game live today, which caused the fans to miss the wonderful scenes. Although they can be seen in the replay, it is always less interesting than the live broadcast.
The pace of the game between the Rockets and the Spurs was so slow that it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as ugly. The score was 76 to 72. The Spurs narrowly defeated the Rockets. This was a score that the Suns could achieve in most of the three quarters. Dayao played quite well, and throughout the game
He scored 11 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists in the game. Not long after he returned from injury, Adelman deliberately controlled Dayao's playing time.
Most of the discussions on the Internet were in support of Chen Yan. Except for the fans in New Orleans, almost no one spoke for Paul. Paul dirty Chen Yan's hands before the conflict, and he was the first to punch, so it didn't mean much.
People will sympathize with him.
Domestic public opinion is unanimously in favor of Chen Yan.
Although he received support from public opinion, Chen Yan felt very complicated after the game because he didn't know what punishment he would face next. Although he was the right side, he KOed Paul after all.
To be honest, Chen Yan didn't know that Brother Pao couldn't help punching. He had deliberately withheld his strength when he threw that punch, otherwise Paul would never have been in shock for just tens of seconds. You must know that the jaw is the most vulnerable part of a person.
First, if you suffer a serious injury and your head tilts back violently, your spine may collide. In severe cases, your nervous system may be permanently damaged.
At the post-match press conference, Chen Yan became the focus of the audience as soon as he appeared on the stage.
The reporter's first question was very pointed.
"Chen, the NBA's propaganda in recent years has been to stay away from violence. What is your explanation for the violent behavior on the court just now?"
"I'm sorry. I want to say sorry to all the fans who watched the game. I want to say sorry to the underage spectators. I set a bad example for everyone. This scene should not appear on the basketball court. The basketball court is
You should speak with the ball, what I did was wrong, I hope everyone will not follow suit." Chen Yan said in a sincere tone.
Apologizing is the smartest thing to do at this stage. It's not terrible to make a mistake. Jordan also fought and Kobe also elbowed, but the attitude of admitting his mistakes afterwards must be sincere. Chen Yan knows that David Stern now intends to praise himself. If he
It's a bad thing if he shows impatience and indifferent attitude at this time.
"You said before that you are not a player who advocates violence, but you knocked Paul out tonight. How do you explain this?" the reporter continued in the same article.
"I still say the same thing, I am against violence, especially violence on the court, but what I want to say is that when we encounter violence, we must know how to use both hands to protect ourselves."
The meaning of Chen Yan's words is very clear. He was purely passive tonight, and it was all because of Paul's fucking force.
The next reporter jumped out: "Chen, your punching is very professional. Have you ever learned boxing?"
"This is one of my hobbies. My purpose in practicing free fighting is to improve my physical fitness and reaction ability. Of course, I can protect myself when necessary, like just now."
Chen Yan once again emphasized that he was passively counterattacking.
Suns teammates also came out to speak for Chen Yan.
Stoudemire said in an interview: "No one wants to see such a conflict happen, but Chen is obviously not the one who provoked the trouble. He punched out of necessity. Everyone does not want to be the injured party.
Just imagine if Chen hadn't stopped Paul, he might have been the one who fell."
Nash said: "Chen is a humble and kind person. He is not the kind of person who will take action casually. The whole incident happened so fast that we had no time to stop it. I hope Paul can return to the game safely and soon."
"Mustache" D'Antoni: "I admit that it is wrong to hit someone, but I think the actual situation should also be considered to give a lighter punishment. Paul is the one who provoked the dispute and the one who took the lead. If the league imposes heavy penalties,
When Chen Na encounters similar incidents in the future, will players only be beaten or flee?"
The Hornets all spoke for Paul. They were teammates, and it was understandable that they would stand by him even if they knew he was wrong.
Fortunately, the results of the post-match examination came out quickly. Paul was fine, just a slight concussion, which is not considered an injury to a player.
The reporters tried their best but couldn't interview Paul. The Hornets protected him very well. Paul himself didn't want to be interviewed. The publicity was that he needed to rest. In fact, it was because he took the initiative and got knocked out because it was too embarrassing...
