When Artest hurried over from the locker room to join the group, Su Xi was already being interviewed in the player tunnel.
"I don't understand why Ben Wallace would do this."
Suhi told TNT's sideline reporters: "This is not the image of him."
"I did not participate in the fight, I was a victim, and I hope the league will revoke the penalty against me."
"I just completed a beautiful steal. I was about to charge when I was hugged and thrown to the ground. I was trying to break free. This was a conditioned reflex. It's like a drowning person reaching out to flutter."
Su Xi continued. 'I am innocent' was written all over his face: If the perpetrator was really hurt, it was an accident.
The female reporter kept looking at Su Xi's torn jersey. The muscle lines inside made it difficult for her to stay focused.
She kept nodding. She also felt that Ben Wallace went too far. Su Xi just beat him up, so he beat Su Xi angrily and even caused Su Xi to be sent off.
What a heinous crime.
But at this time, TNT's slow motion revealed some clues: Ben Wallace punched Su Xi, and Su Xi kicked him... This was the direct reason why Ben Wallace's face was swollen like a pig's head when he left. .
But...from the picture, you can't tell whether Su Xi did it intentionally or was struggling in panic.
And, morally speaking, emotionally speaking, logically speaking. Susie is the victim.
After Ben Wallace was repeatedly ravaged by Su Xi with his ball skills, his ferocity became fierce. He grabbed Su Xi and tried to solve everything with his fists.
Even in a legal sense, Su Xi fought back in self-defense.
So... TNT's position is all on Su Xi's side, and the audience in front of the TV also has sharp eyes.
Except for Detroit fans, public opinion was overwhelmingly supportive of Susie. Especially on the Internet, everyone said: Even if Ben Wallace was beaten into a pig's head, he deserved it. Who asked him to hurt Su Xi. God bless the kindhearted, Susie's struggle just hit the perpetrator.
No one sympathized with Ben Wallace.
Except for his primary care physician.
His attending doctor looked at Ben Wallace, who had a splitting headache and could not even count three fingers when shaking them. He was thinking: How on earth was playing on the court to end up like this?
After watching the video of the game, he learned that Ben Wallace had been kicked, punched and kicked by Susie and Tony Barty.
Conservative estimate, moderate concussion.
Be hospitalized.
The doctor gave this plan.
After Su Xi received the interview, she returned to the locker room.
The team doctor carefully examined him and confirmed that he was not injured. There was a party in the visiting team's locker room. This victory meant a lot to the Pacers.
It totally vindicates the Larry Bird trade package.
It completely establishes Suhi's legitimacy as the core of the team's tactics.
It completely condenses the centripetal force within the team with Su Xi as the core.
The season is not yet halfway through, and less than a month after the Suxi trade, it is a matter of course, and the world is back.
Artest personally gave Su Xi a bottle of Gatorade to express his 'surrender'.
This is a small tacit understanding between men.
Men in real life don't just bow to you like they do in the movie. From now on, I will mess with you after saying "big brother", and then die.
Ron Artest is particularly like Dennis Rodman in some aspects, pointing fingers at weak leaders and completely obeying strong leaders. When he was with the Spurs, he made the Admiral look like a fool.
When he got to the Bulls, he completely surrendered to Jordan. When he first came to the Bulls, there was a game where Rodman played very poorly and messed up everything. After the game, he knocked on Jordan's door for the first time and asked Jordan to borrow a cigar.
This proactive act was Rodman's way of apologizing to Jordan.
Jordan knew it.
Since then, Rodman has never had a problem. He is even the most stable person in the Bulls dynasty. In some games, he was the one who forced his teammates back when they did not perform well.
Now Artest gave Su Xi a bottle of drink.
Su Xi also understood it, and everyone in the locker room saw it and knew what was going on.
Su Xi raised her head and took a big sip. He said, "Ron, if you were on the field, Ben Wallace was going to be carried out."
"Hahahaha, that's natural. When we join hands, we are invincible." Artest said cheerfully.
Later, he asked Su Xi in private: "Jack, you fell down on purpose. I don't think it was a coincidence that Ben Wallace was punched and kicked by you. After all, you punched my dad into the hospital." A man from the ministry.”
Su Xi smiled, he had a unique Chinese way of handling things. "This question is not important. Let's talk about my triple-double tonight. Also, do you think you can keep up with the fast offensive pace we played in the fourth quarter?"
Don't criticize everything and leave enough room for imagination. You can interpret it however you want, but I won't admit it. I did it, don't expect me to claim it.
Coach Carlisle strongly criticized the violence in the post-match press conference. He said after the game: "Jack suffered a cervical spine injury and a concussion. The doctor said he will have to rest for at least a week."
"What did Jack do wrong in this game? He shouldn't have scored 28 points against the Pistons' brutal defense, he shouldn't have connected the team with an astonishing 16 assists, or he shouldn't have been in the paint with his point guard height. District tried his best to grab 10 rebounds. Oh, by the way, he also stole 6 times and blocked 2 shots. Are these his mistakes that lead to revenge and being punched by others?"
Carlisle was furious and launched an army to investigate.
At the post-game press conference at the Palace of Auburn Hills, facing a room full of reporters, he looked like an old hen guarding her young.
Of course he knew that Su Xi was not injured.
However, it would be unreasonable if Su Xi was not injured at this time.
After Carlisle vented his anger, the Detroit reporters below knew they were in the wrong and did not continue to ask questions.
After all, it is a fact that Ben Wallace went crazy and rushed towards Su Xi after being intercepted.
Moreover, Su Xi was so small and Ben Wallace was so strong, even though Su Xi was photographed kicking him and punching him. How heavy can Su Xi's fists and feet weigh? Wallace was a former five-star football player. Bless Suzy.
TNT reporters were concerned about Su Xi’s injuries.
Carlisle made an exaggerated statement, and then emphasized that Indiana would appeal to the end to seek justice for Jack.
Finally, a reporter from TNT asked an interesting question: "Coach, the Pacers have lost two games against the Pistons before. Tonight, the Pacers won. What do you think was the winning factor?"
"Needless to say? It's Jack. He got a super triple-double, 28 points, 16 assists, 10 rebounds, 6 steals and 2 blocks. I don't think anyone except Jack can get such data at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Not Jason Kidd, not Tracy McGrady, not Allen Iverson...no one can! That's why I think Jack can be an All-Star starter."
"Of course, that's why he got a concussion."
"The Pistons are very good at pressing. They not only like to pressure the ball handler, but they also like to pressure the player without the ball."
“We lost the first two games because they were suffocating the pace of our scorers in the mid-range.”
"But now, we have the smartest point guard in the league. He can attack the paint hard and he can easily penetrate the defense with the basketball."
"The Pacers are firing on all cylinders under his tandem, and that's why we win. And that's why we keep winning."
Carlisle gave Susie very high praise.
Fifteen minutes later, Larry Brown appeared at the same interview table.
Larry Brown looked depressed.
TNT asked him about Ben Wallace's stadium violence. He said: "It cannot be characterized as Ben Wallace's stadium violence yet. Five minutes ago, we received a confirmed report from the hospital that he had a severe concussion and he has been hospitalized. .”
"You have to know that two Pacers were flanking Ben Wallace. He was helped out, while the other two walked out. So, can you say that this was unilateral violence by Ben Wallace? This is unfair and the media must report responsibly."
Larry Brown is trying to regain some ground in public opinion.
But before he could declare Ben Wallace a concussion, Carlisle had already declared Sushi the Lamb a concussion.
So, there is nothing to be shocked about.
Moreover, Su Xi was indeed knocked down by Ben Wallace. With his physique, he was entangled with Ben Wallace, the most muscular man in the league. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell who suffered more.
Larry Brown's reaction to the media was lackluster, and even local reporters didn't talk to him.
He was a little depressed. Isn’t Ben Wallace miserable enough? On the court, she was trash-talked by the little sheep Su Xi, and outside the court, she was beaten with a concussion and was lying on the bed with little stars in the sky, but she didn't care? No one feels sad?
The TNT reporter asked Larry Brown an interesting question: "Coach. Before this game, the Pistons defeated the Pacers twice at home and away. But tonight, the Pacers won by a big score. What do you think is the reason for this result? What?"
"Suzy the Sheep!"
Larry Brown blurted out. "He is an extremely cunning point guard, he is very good at psychological tactics, and his trash talk is the best in the league. He made Ben lose his temper tonight, and he kept our defense exhausted. He is an extremely insidious guy, Everyone underestimated how dangerous he was."
"Uh...you mean, he defeated the Pistons with his mouth?" a TNT reporter refined Larry Brown's central idea.
"Yes. That's it." Larry Brown was sincere.
The scene was filled with laughter.
This is an April Fool's joke.
"Carlisle said it was because you couldn't defend Su Xi's attack, and he seized the opportunity to activate the entire team. He also said that your pressure strategy was ineffective against Su Xi..." TNT continued to be incensed.
"I don't think so." Larry Brown interrupted him and said: "Why can't we guard a point guard who can't shoot with the ball, a point guard who can't kill from mid-range, and whose breakthrough skills are straight and lack of change? ?That’s kind of ridiculous.”
Larry Brown was unhappy.
Then he stopped accepting interviews.
Larry Brown left the press conference, which meant that the game came to an end.
However, Susie's super triple-double and the violence at the Palace of Auburn Hills quickly made the headlines of the sports media, and public opinion spread wildly.
At this time, the entertainment media also exposed a breaking news.
It directly changed the All-Star voting process.
