There are thousands of people with different views on the same thing. However, the 20,000 people present tonight reached the same consensus, that is, Lin Yu is a madman!
Lin Yu is a madman!
Everyone knows that crazy people should not be messed with, because no one knows what will happen if they are messed with.
However, the Jazz provoked the lunatic Lin Yu tonight, and it will definitely be difficult for them to be kind.
The team doctors were dispatched one after another, carrying a stretcher into the stadium, and carried the unconscious Ou out of the stadium. Malone and Stockton were not much better.
Ma Long was retaliated with tooth by Lin Yu, and his two front teeth were smashed out forcefully. He hit them hard again and again, even the gods couldn't bear it.
In addition, Ma Long had already fainted after being severely beaten by Ben and Miller before.
Stockton was not fainted, but his shoulder was bloody from being bitten by a madman.
The madman's mouth was full of blood and he looked like a demon. Seeing that Stockton was about to be carried out, he quickly stopped him.
"Do you have a damn disease like HIV?"
"I should have bitten your neck and sent you straight to God!"
The madman's words made the team doctors carrying the stretchers terrified. They were glad that they were not players and did not have to face such a madman on the court.
You must know that Madman was suspended for almost the whole season last season. Everyone thought that he should have learned his lesson. However, Madman lost his mind and behaved not like a normal human being at all.
"let's go!"
Lin Yu didn't want to wait for the referee to blow the whistle. Tonight, everyone from the Wizards, from Lin Yu as the coach, to the four assistant coaches, to the twelve players, almost all took action after taking the field. No one was spared, and they would definitely have to do it. All were expelled.
"Lin, wait."
Sloan looked anxious and quickly stopped Lin Yu. He knew very well that if he didn't surrender in front of Lin Yu tonight, the Jazz would definitely suffer a devastating blow in the future.
"Lin, if you want to blame, blame me. No matter how you treat me, I will never complain."
"I bear a lot of responsibility for what happened tonight. Everything is my fault."
Sloan looked like he was going to kill him at the slightest opportunity. He wanted to make Lin Yu extinguish the anger in his heart as much as possible.
Lin Yu sneered: "Jerry, you are indeed responsible."
"However, it is no longer your responsibility alone. I will destroy Jazz bit by bit. I will slowly crush you and turn you into dust."
"The day I acquire the Jazz, there will no longer be any trace of the Jazz in the world."
"Malone and Stockton will become lonely ghosts without a team, and their names will not appear in the history of any team."
"Your team is dead. Even if God comes, he can't save you."
After that, Lin Yu led everyone back to the locker room.
That night, everyone stayed in the hospital. Xiao'ao's condition was extremely serious. It was not uncommon for the Wizards to lose consciousness after being elbowed by an opponent before. However, he soon woke up, while Xiao'ao was in a coma all night. .
It wasn't until noon the next day that Xiao Ao woke up leisurely. Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief. If something happened to Xiao Ao, he didn't know how to tell Xiao Ao's mother Angela Jones. Account.
Jones is a great mother. Her husband ran away like most black fathers. Jones raised her two sons alone. Less than two weeks after giving birth to Little O, in order to earn money to support her two children, she returned to the hospital to work as a caregiver after work. I also had to work part-time as a receptionist in a bank.
In order to give Xiao Ao a good growing environment, Jones lived frugally and moved away from the lower-class streets, in order to prevent the Xiao Ao brothers from becoming that kind of street gangsters.
With such a great mother, Xiao Ao's personality is not like those black people who come from the streets. He is very polite in dealing with others and is a well-behaved boy who is loved by everyone.
If Xiao Ao had any shortcomings, Lin Yu could not imagine how sad Jones would be.
"Child, just wake up." Lin Yu sat beside Xiao Ao's hospital bed and never closed his eyes.
"Boss, what happened?" Xiao Ao lost one of his front teeth and his words were leaky. After he was hit by an elbow, he passed out on the spot and had no idea what happened.
"It's nothing, just take good care of yourself."
"Good boy, when you recover from your injury, sign a contract with us. I will renew your contract with a maximum salary in advance."
Lin Yu sighed and said to Xiao Ao.
He felt sorry for Xiao Ao, and at the same time he was blaming himself for being too careless. If he had warned Xiao Ao earlier, maybe such a tragic thing would not have happened on the court.
Xiao Ao weakly forced out a smile, "Can I stay? Thank God, I won."
"I made a bet with Kobe and Steve that it was time for all three of us to sign."
"I originally thought it would be Kobe, after all, he is very capable, and I also thought it would be Steve, after all, he can partner with Bus."
"I never thought the winner would be me!"
After Xiao Ao said that, he fell asleep again.
Lin Yu felt sour in his heart, what a good boy, damn Ma Long should go to hell!
In the 1996 golden generation, Lin Yu originally had five players in his hands, and Ben has already left for the SuperSonics. Peja entered the league in 1997, so he has not yet reached the time to renew his contract in advance.
The remaining O'Neill, Kobe and Nash will all be able to renew their contracts in advance after this season.
It is impossible for a team to sign three maximum-salary players, and Daba's contract can also be renewed in advance, so the three of them know that only one of them may stay.
Xiao Ao never thought that he would be the lucky one to stay. He was already ready to be traded by Lin Yu.
However, today Lin Yu promised him a maximum-salary contract. Xiao Ao let go of his worries, no longer had any worries, and fell asleep sweetly.
Lin Yu shook his head and stopped thinking about these upsetting things. Now he just wanted to take revenge on the Jazz and make the entire Jazz pay a heavy price.
"Ding ding ding!"
Lin Yu's cell phone rang. It was Dick Motta, the retired old coach.
Lin Yu had a very happy chat with Mota before, and they could be considered a lifelong friend.
However, Lin Yu did not answer Mota's call this time. He knew that Mota came to plead for Sloan, and Sloan was Mota's disciple.
Half an hour later, Zen Master Jackson also called, but Lin Yu still didn't answer. Zen Master is Sloan's fellow disciple.
It's useless for anyone to intercede now. Lin Yu can no longer let Jazz go.
He said those words in front of tens of thousands of fans. If the Jazz were let go, Lin Yu would become a big joke.
"Squeak." The door of the ward was pushed open, and a black woman who looked about forty years old walked into the ward with a worried face.
Lin Yu knew that this might be Angela Jones, Xiao Ao's mother.
"Ms. Jones, I'm sorry that I failed to protect Jermaine." Lin Yu stepped forward and apologized in a low voice.
Jones is a great mother and a woman who understands the general situation. "No, Coach Lin, how can I blame you?"
"You are Jermaine's noble man. If it weren't for you, Jermaine would still be just a fringe player that no one knows."
"Every time he calls me, he mentions you and says he is a lucky kid who met the best coach in the world."
The more Lin Yu listened, the more uncomfortable he became. He waved his hand and said, "Ms. Jones, I will make Jazz pay a price that they cannot afford."
"This is my promise to you!"
…
With Jones taking care of him, Lin Yu could finally leave the hospital with peace of mind. He had not slept for more than 24 hours and was planning to return to the hotel to rest first and discuss other matters in the long run.
After returning to the hotel room, Lin Yu received a call from Stern.
"David, if you want to come to plead for Sir, I can only tell you, it's impossible!"
"I will never let Jazz go, and no one can stop me."
"This is my promise to a great mother!"
A wry smile came from Stern's side, "Lin, you are really too reckless. Even if you want revenge, you shouldn't say it in front of so many people and put yourself in a difficult situation."
"Your handling of this incident was too immature. Five Wizards coaches and 12 players were involved in the fight. How do you want me to punish you?"
"The punishment is too light, and there is no way to explain it. The punishment is too heavy, and you will definitely not be convinced."
Stern said with a sigh.
Lin Yu slowly said: "I'm not even thirty years old. I don't need to act maturely. I just need to be worthy of my own conscience."
"Besides, you can punish me however you want. No matter how severe the punishment is, I don't care."
"But you can't be partial to the Jazz. Malone has been doing evil for so many years. Sloan is responsible, and your league officials are also responsible. If you hadn't condoned him, how could he hurt people so unscrupulously?"
"Isaiah Thomas was only suspended for one game after his elbow was like that. The Spurs Twin Towers were bullied like that by him, and you didn't even show a suspension."
Lin Yu is very tired. When people are tired, they will always lose control of their emotions. Lin Yu is also full of resentment towards the league officials.
He is actually right. The reason why Malone is so rampant is not the result of the official connivance of the league.
There was absolutely no way to refute what Stern said. He also knew that what Lin Yu said was completely correct. If any other small role player dared to elbow the Smiling Assassin like that, it would definitely not be a penalty of a one-game suspension. It would be a suspension for the entire season. Totally possible.
"Lin, I can't refute you. What you said is correct."
"Maybe it's time to make some changes."
Stern sighed and said that he has been working hard to create stars over the years and opened the door to top stars. Now it seems that there are successes and failures.
The one who succeeded was naturally Jordan, who brought unimaginable wealth to the NBA.
The one who failed was naturally Malone. He enjoyed the treatment of a top superstar, but because of his dirty style of play, he did not have much commercial value.
After hanging up the phone with Lin Yu, Stern called over Xiao Hua.
"Adam, take this penalty report and go to a press conference."
Xiao Hua looked shocked. He usually drew up the punishment report by himself. This time, Stern actually wrote the punishment report himself, which shows that Stern takes this incident seriously.
He briefly glanced at the punishment report, and his expression changed drastically.
"Mr. President, do you really want to give Lin such a heavy punishment?" Xiao Hua always felt that Stern looked at Lin Yu differently, but in the current penalty report, Lin Yu's punishment was extremely severe.
A 20-game suspension and a $1 million fine were the most severe penalties in NBA history.
Stern shook his head and said with a smile, "Look at the severity of punishments given to Wizards players?"
Xiao Hua looked at the punishment of the Wizards players and found that it was much lighter than he thought. He immediately understood Stern's intention.
Transferring the punishment of the Wizards players to Lin Yu, based on their understanding of Lin Yu, I am afraid that Lin Yu will not only not resent the league, but also thank the league.
"Mr. President, if Lin Yu said something like that in front of so many fans, I'm afraid there's no way it could end, right?" Xiao Hua asked again.
An impatient look appeared on Stern's face, "What did you say? Are you talking about acquiring the Jazz and then moving them?"
"Why should it end? If Lin Yu can do it, I support it with all my hands. Utah does not deserve to have an NBA team."
"In terms of population, their population is less than 3 million, which is less than a fraction of California's 40 million population. Texas' population of less than 30 million can accommodate three NBA teams, and California is enough to accommodate four NBA teams."
"In terms of residents' income, compared with Connecticut, which has a similar population, they are just street beggars."
"New York State has a population of 20 million. In addition to New York City, Buffalo, Rochester and Albany do not have NBA teams."
"I can name at least twenty cities that are better suited to be home to an NBA team than Salt Lake City, with their damn altitude, tons of rednecks, and damn Mormon polygamy."
"Even if Lin Yu can't do it alone, I can help him. After all, this is a good thing for the NBA. Running a league is like running a store. You want your store to open in a remote place full of poor people. Or do you want to open it in a bustling metropolis where rich people gather?"
"Adam, think more about it. If you are still at this level, how can I trust you to hand over the league to you." Stern said to Xiao Hua with an attitude of hating iron but not steel.
Xiao Hua nodded repeatedly, how dare he contradict Stern.
Half an hour later, Xiao Hua held a press conference and announced the punishment results for last night's game.
The first is the result of this game. The league determined that the Utah Jazz won the game.
There is no way, everyone in the Wizards has been expelled, but the Jazz still have players to play with, so even if the Wizards lead the score when they leave the game, the winner is still the Jazz.
The last time Lin Yu led his team to fight against the Knicks, the situation was different. That time, all 24 players from both sides were expelled, so the side with the lead won.
At the moment, no one cares about the outcome of a mere regular season game. Nearly a hundred reporters came to the scene, and everyone was waiting for the league's penalty.
"For the vicious brawl last night, the league imposed the following penalties."
"Washington Wizards head coach Lin Yu has been suspended for 20 games and fined US$1 million!"
The reporters in the audience gasped, good guy, a direct fine of one million US dollars? Are there rumors that Lin Yu and Stern have a close relationship? Is this false news?
The penalty of 1 million US dollars directly broke the NBA's historical record. The penalty of 20 game suspensions was also quite serious. No coach has yet been sentenced to so many suspensions.
Reporters all wondered whether it was what Lin Yu shouted into the microphone that offended Stern? And then he incurred such a severe punishment?
"Washington Wizards assistant Joe Bryant has been suspended for seven games, Ray Jackson has been suspended for seven games, and Bernie Biskduff has been suspended for five games."
"Washington Wizards player Monk Battle is suspended for 10 games, Brad Miller is suspended for 14 games, Latrell Sprewell is suspended for 21 games, Paul Pierce is suspended for 11 games, and Vince Carter is suspended for 7 games. Kobe Bryant was suspended for 5 games, Tracy McGrady was suspended for 3 games, Wang Zhizhi was suspended for 8 games, and Ricky Davis was suspended for 1 game.”
The reporters in the audience looked weird. The league’s punishment for the Wizards was not too light, but no one was fined. They were simply suspended. Kobe and McGrady were suspended for very few games, at least compared to others. For example, much less. The two of them beat Jose Hawkins half to death on the court. Logically speaking, the number of suspended games should be similar to that of Pierce and Carter.
There are 17 Wizards coaches and players in total. Except for old Bob, the nonsense expert, the injured Ou and Nash, everyone else has been suspended.
Nash's injury was not serious. He was injured by Stockton's elbow. He recovered after leaving the game and was not seriously injured.
Reporters are curious about what kind of punishment the league will give the Jazz.
"Utah Jazz player Karl Malone was suspended for 45 games and fined $15,000, John Stockton was suspended for 37 games and fined $15,000, Jose Hawkins was suspended for 17 games and fined $15,000, Gugli Ota was suspended for 16 games and fined $15,000, and Jeff Hornacek was suspended for 10 games and fined $15,000."
Because Sloan was trying to break up the fight after he came on the court, he did not take action, so no punishment was imposed.
When there is a conflict on the court, the players on the bench are not allowed to play at all, but the coach can come on to stop the fight. Of course, the premise is that he cannot take action. Someone like Lin Yu will definitely be suspended.
The reporters gasped. They suspected that they were hearing hallucinations. Are you kidding me? Malone was suspended for 45 games? !
Malone has been playing in his career for more than ten years. He has injured countless people before and was only suspended for two or three games in total. But this time, he was suspended for 45 games?
In addition, this season's games are already halfway through. With so many games suspended, Malone will not only be unable to play in the playoffs, but will still have to make up for many games after the start of next season.
The same goes for Stockton. He won't be able to play in the playoffs this year.
The Jazz still failed in the playoffs this year. No matter where they entered the playoffs, they would definitely be swept out.
Reporters felt that the person who was most unfairly accused might be Jeff Hornacek. He actually didn't do much and was almost always being beaten. As a result, he was suspended for 10 games.
Stern clearly wanted Jazz to die and did not leave any way for Jazz to survive.
Originally, reporters were still wondering why Lin Yu was fined so heavily, but now they understand that this is Stern's balancing act.
The Jazz feel that the punishment of their players is too serious. Then look at the Wizards. The coach and three assistants were suspended, and ten players were suspended. The coach Lin Yu was fined one million US dollars.
For Lin Yu, this mere million US dollars is just a small amount of money, and he doesn't care at all.
