Basketball: The Chosen Victim

Chapter 210 Xiao Hua, Dogs Are Worse!
"3-1!The Cavaliers won the match point! "

Is the Throne Going to Cleveland?Miami was slaughtered! "

"Galaxy Battleship was slammed by AK47, the legendary coach's name is greater than his strength? "

"Holding a group and hugging a lonely, the Big Three were slapped in the face! "

"Blood Coronation!Wu Di?No, invincible! "

"Next step, rule the alliance? "

……

In the early morning of May 5th, the situation of G25 in the Eastern Conference finals occupied the front page headlines of major media.

There are basically no reports of Bosh being injured or being reimbursed for the season.

Obviously, it's not that there are no reporters at the scene, but that the league has taken the same cold treatment of this incident as Bosh's abolition of Jordan.

But the Heat fans were furious. They used to ride on other people's heads to shit. This time the roles were reversed and they were pulled even harder. How could they not explode?

Especially after seeing all kinds of excited and carnival remarks made by Cavaliers fans on the Internet, they couldn't stand it!
Not only did they frantically write complaint letters to the league, demanding that the league impose additional second-degree criminals and more severe suspensions on Wu Di, some even went directly to the NBA New York headquarters to raise a sign to protest.

The league has taken a consistent evasive approach to this.

This made the other fans mock them even more. Bosh is tough when he abolishes others, but he is good when he is abolished. If he is abolished, he has to sue for a suspension to protest three times in a row. The Miami people play double standards too slippery!

At the same time, the ripples from the Cavaliers' victory in Game 4 and the match point were just beginning to spread.

Is it sure to win if you hold a group?

Holding a group and losing the game at the same time, wouldn't it be more hip?

Paul, who was out fishing, couldn't help thinking about these questions in his mind. He had already applied for a trade with the team, but where to go, he really had to think carefully...

In the evening, G4 of the Western Conference Finals was staged on time at the Ford Center Arena in Oklahoma City.

In this game, the original rhythm was that the Thunder had a strong output in the first quarter, mainly because Durant made 6 of 5 shots, leading the Thunder to sweep away the haze of the previous home loss, quickly expanding the lead to 10 points, and taking this The lead was maintained until the last two and a half minutes of the game.

Then a group of veterans of the Mavericks suddenly exerted their strength, tying the score in the last two and a half minutes, and at the same time defending the Thunder to a scoreless.

When the game went to overtime, the Mavericks took advantage of the momentum to pursue and won the game, winning the match point 1-3.

But this time it is very different!
Bad things come in pairs. Durant seems to be stimulated by the Cavaliers winning the match point first. In addition to hearing the rumors that Wu Di and Scarlett clinked glasses happily last night, the feeling is terrible!
All the unhappiness in Adu's heart greeted the basket's neck, so his original 6 of 5 shots became 6 of 1 shots...

The leader was like this, and the morale of the Thunder also plummeted. At the end of the first quarter, the score came to 32-22, and the Thunder fell behind by 10 points!
"David, who do you think will win the finals between the Mavericks and the Cavaliers?"

Xiao Hua covered his mouth and discussed with Stern on the sidelines of the Ford Center arena.

"Thirty to seven? Cavaliers seven, Mavericks three? It should be about the same ratio. The Mavericks defend the zone and specialize in teams like the Thunder, but the Cavaliers' three-pointers specialize in defeating the Mavericks..."

Stern also covered his mouth and replied, if the Cavaliers can really make it out of the Eastern Conference Finals, then there is a high probability of winning the O'Brien Cup.

Debut is the pinnacle, and the superstar who achieved this feat before was Magic Johnson in his rookie season.

However, the magician was holding the thighs of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Wilkes at the time, and now Wu Di is leading the team with a single core. up...

To be honest, Stern loves and hates the current Cavaliers...

What I love is that the topic of revenge between the Cavaliers and the Heat has brought the alliance's traffic to a new level. What I hate is that the Cavaliers are about to win in the first year, and the topic of revenge is about to end...

It's like holding a credit card with unlimited limit, but the expiration date of this card is tomorrow!

It's not enough to enjoy!

Thinking of this, Stern was very unhappy.

It's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. On days without traffic, doesn't that mean killing him?
But Xiao Hua proposed to him early this morning to add a second-level criminal to Wu Di, but he hesitated again...

Don't underestimate the difference between a first-degree criminal and a second-degree criminal.

Especially when Wu Di had already scored 3 points for two criminals.

Yesterday's foul against Bosh, if it was a first-degree criminal, would only be suspended for one game according to the rules.

If it is a second-degree offender, it will be suspended for two games.

The Cavaliers do not have Wu Di. With the remaining lineup alone, they have no power to parry against the Heat. The two-game suspension will cause the Cavaliers to lose their 3-1 advantage and go directly to the tiebreaker.

Doing so will first damage the authority of the alliance, and second, affect Wu Di's reputation value.

And, more importantly, in this situation, it is meaningless to drag it to the tiebreaker.

With the development of the situation to this point, people who are knowledgeable can basically see that it's not that Riley is weak, but that the Cavaliers' newly established offensive system is absolutely revolutionary.

Riley will be very difficult to crack for a while.

The Miami tactic was settled, and the Vice City tactic came again. I don’t know what’s going on behind it, and it will take time for anyone to react.

Anyway, this is definitely not something that can be solved in a few days.

But if it drags to the tie-break, with Riley's obsession with victory and the Cavaliers' revenge, it will really be a comet hitting the earth!
Not to mention that Wu Di, James, and Wade may all be injured, and Riley and Scott may fight on the spot. No one can afford such a risk.

Moreover, this will seriously damage the core interests of the alliance. There is no need to do this, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Stern doesn't want to reverse the trend of fighting and taking a ball in the 90s with great difficulty to revive again...

The two were discussing and discussing, but Durant's touch improved somewhat. At the end of the second quarter, the Thunder chased the score to 54-48.

Although they only chased for 4 points, the Goose City fans were as happy as crazy. They reveled and screamed, more excited than taking drugs!
Seeing this, Xiao Hua asked Stern again:

"How do you think Thunder fans will react if the Thunder lose this series?"

Stern shrugged:

"It shouldn't be a big deal, even looking forward to next season? That's the benefit of a young team, the fans will be more patient..."

Xiao Hua gestured excitedly and responded:
"Yes, that's right! This is why we wanted the Heat to win the championship before!"

Stern took off his glasses and wiped them. Why didn't he think this way:
"I know, I know! How many times do I have to say it before you give up your unrealistic idea? Now that Bosh is reimbursed for the season, with James and Wade alone, even if they make it to the Eastern Conference Finals, it will be difficult to keep up with them." Mavericks arm wrestling..."

He still didn't say a word. It's not certain whether James and Wade will be able to play at that time!
But Xiao Hua has a different opinion:

"What I want to say is, why can't it be the Mavericks? As a second-generation international player, Nowitzki has enough fans to support the honor of the championship..."

"Let the two sides of the Eastern Conference Finals fight more fiercely. It is even better for the Cavaliers to pass the Eastern Conference Finals but fail to win the championship. Then next season, the Cavaliers and the Heat will switch positions and become a revenge battle for the Heat..."

When Stern heard the back, his eyes became brighter and brighter!

He only considered letting the Heat win the Eastern Conference finals, but he didn't consider letting the Cavaliers win the game with a broken lineup and then lose to the Mavericks in the finals:

"Adam, you're so damn talented!"

Xiao Hua listened to Stern's praise, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising wildly!
The script he came up with after thinking all night not only saved the league's most valuable traffic topic, but also regained the league's control over the game, killing two birds with one stone:

"Next season, we can even let the Heat continue to strengthen. Didn't Chris Paul apply for a trade with us a few days ago? Just let him join the Heat to form the Big Four, and then let them succeed in revenge and even win the championship , so that we can easily save the golden sign of James, in short, the flames of revenge will never end..."

This time, Stern just laughed out loud!

The flames of vengeance never end?

Xiao Hua is really a master at playing with fire!

In the future, the NBA will be handed over to him, so I can rest assured!
However, there is another problem, and that is the health of the super giants, but after Xiao Hua broadened his mind, he has already thought of countermeasures:

"This matter needs to be controlled. Wu Di, James, and Wade must keep healthy. Others, like Jamison, Davis, Jones, and Big Z, don't care!"

"When Wu Di is added as a second-level criminal, an announcement will be issued at the same time. If there is another malicious foul that causes injury, the league will conduct a review and decide whether to suspend the game..."

When Xiao Hua heard the words, his eyes immediately lit up. After such an announcement, the two teams would not dare to let them do the dirty work in order to avoid their respective super giants being suspended in the finals, and the role players were not skilled enough , It is very difficult to destroy Chaoju!
As for Jamieson, Davis and the like, they only need to be abolished in the next two games of Wu Di's suspension, and they can basically declare that they are done!

And when publicizing it to the outside world, it is very easy to make sense. Wu Di was suspended, and veterans like Jamison and Davis were too burdened, leading to overwork injuries and stress injuries!
Tsk tsk, in this way, the intensity of the tie-break can be limited within the control range:

"The boss is wise!"

Xiao Hua paid his ass in time.

The two had a lively discussion off the court, but the game on the court was heading in an unexpected direction.

In the third quarter, the law of conservation of hand feeling came into play, and Durant's hand feeling began to recover further, leading the Thunder to continue chasing points and chasing the score to 73-70!

In the fourth quarter, Westbrook and Ha Shao saw that the big brother became more and more powerful, and they had an internal drive that could not be lost to the big brother, and began to score non-stop, sharing the pressure for Durant!
And the Thunder fans at the Ford Center became more and more crazy when they saw the home team evening out the points difference bit by bit!
Not just shouting and stomping, which is a routine way to affect the player's game state, the female fans in the front row even took off their shirts when Nowitzki made a free throw!

And Nuo Tianwang also missed two free throws to save face!

The rare miss of two free throws hurt so much that the Mavericks were a little bit overwhelmed. When just 4 minutes passed in the fourth quarter, the Thunder succeeded in taking the lead!
And maintained the lead until the end of the game!
Big score 2-2!

The Ford Center is completely boiling!

Listening to the endless shouts of "Kill to Cleveland!" and so on, Xiao Hua and Stern couldn't help but re-examine the script that they thought was foolproof.

Is Thunder going to learn from the knights and complete the following?
"Adam, just do as you say!"

Stern patted Silver on the shoulder, the finals, any team in the Western Conference finals can win the championship, even the Heat can win, only the Cavaliers can't!

So, on the morning of May 5, just after the Cavaliers' special plane landed at Miami International Airport, Wu Di learned that he was added as a second-level criminal!
Banned for two games!

Until G7!

The Cavaliers were completely blown away, the fewer words, the bigger the matter!
It's not just as simple as adding penalties and suspensions. From the jubilant performance of the Heat fans who came to "pick up" the plane, it can be seen that the league is playing with fire!

"Made, these people have really become pick-ups!"

Jordan looked at the cheering Heat fans and shook his head and spat.

"Look at what online fans said, "The league forcibly creates suspense"! This person is still a Trail Blazers fan. Alas, even neutral fans can't stand it anymore. What is the league doing? Don't they know that this will make Lai Lee, let the Heat die?"

Even Jamison, who was relatively taciturn in the past, couldn't stand it anymore.

Suspended for one game, they can steadily win the game at home in G6, suspended for two games, and go directly to the away game of G7, they will not only lose their previous advantages, but also face the disadvantage of away games.

To make matters worse, the Heat will definitely use dirty methods in the future!
In this way, the G7 is even more difficult to say!

"Huh? The league issued another announcement, saying that if there is another malicious foul that causes a player to be injured, the league will suspend the game according to the review... Does the league really want to impose heavier penalties to protect our health?"

Love was puzzled, but it attracted the rebuttal of the old player Davis:
"No, the meaning of the alliance is that, except for Wu Di, everyone else will abolish..."

"Byron!"

Scott stopped Davis from further revealing the truth.

Although what this guy said was correct, it really hurt morale too much, it would cause everyone to feel insecure, and it might also cause other players to become suspicious of Wu Di.

Wu Di, who was in the center of the storm, got on the team bus with a bad expression on his face.

There is no doubt that this game is aimed at the Cavaliers.

The league does not want to see the Cavaliers win the championship, and forcibly suspends Wu Di for two games to give the Heat the hope of winning. With Riley's omnipotent style, he will definitely resort to useless tactics again...

Mad, Stern is a real dog!

The day before yesterday, he said at the reception that he would be the face of the league in the future, and now he deliberately set up obstacles to prevent the Cavaliers from winning the championship!

Xiao Hua is even worse than a dog!

Without ten years of cerebral thrombosis, I would never have thought of this trick!

But the most important thing now is not to call the alliance stupid, but how to escape the trap set by the alliance.

After Wu Di thought for a while, he found Scott and said:
"Would you like to try connecting with Riley?"

Yes, connect with Riley!

The alliance wanted them to kill each other and hurt both sides, but it ignored one point!
That is, for the two teams, the championship is everything!
The Heat abolished the Cavaliers' role players, and the Cavaliers abolished the Heat's role players, so the finals still have a woolen yarn?

"No need!"

However, Scott stretched out his palm and refused.

Wu Di frowned:

"If Riley still has a bit of dignity, then the road should not be so dirty! Basketball belongs to basketball, and the intensity is controlled within a reasonable range. Both of us can escape the game set by the league..."

Scott sighed, patted the seat beside him and signaled Wu Di to sit down.

His eyes looked into the distance, and he explained with a complex expression:
"Riley is more than a bit of dignity? His creed is that he can manipulate anyone, but he will never allow himself to be manipulated!"

"Look, he will take the initiative to come to us. The alliance has already touched his red line in this matter..."

"In his eyes, if G7 lets go, they may not necessarily lose to us!"
