The league's $20,000 fine did not soothe Min Congda's wounded heart.
The $6,000 loss fund he had prepared for this series has been depleted.
The promised 4:2, the Clippers have already achieved this 2 in advance, the Spurs, your 4 is still 0!
Are you okay? It was in vain that I had high hopes for your careful selection, and I did not hesitate to have a big quarrel with the coaching staff and players.
Is this how you repay me and the San Antonio fans?
What spurs? What you have is donkey spurs, dog spurs, and mouse spurs!
In my mind, I was furiously attacking the Spurs, but that was not enough.
After returning to Los Angeles, Min Congda quickly wrote a post-game article to criticize the Spurs' loss in the second game.
This post-match article is all about emotions and no technical analysis.
Compared with the first game, Ginobili's comeback has indeed greatly enriched the level of the Spurs' offense.
In this game, Ginobili scored 23 points and was the team's leading scorer.
The Clippers don't have much to do with Ginobili.
But correspondingly, the Spurs have nothing to do with James Harden.
In the first three quarters of the game, the Spurs were relatively successful in suppressing the Clippers.
They always maintained a more than 5-point lead over the Clippers.
At the end of the fourth quarter, the Clippers suddenly exerted their strength, and Curry and Harden hit consecutive three-pointers.
Both sides quickly returned to the same level.
As Ginobili missed the final three-pointer, the two sides entered overtime.
Harden scored 8 points alone in overtime, and he only scored 18 points in the game.
The Spurs were assassinated by a second-year shooting guard.
In the final stage, the Spurs showed their age.
Their strength is not at all technical and tactical.
It's a failure of state and energy.
They made consecutive turnovers and missed some open shots.
Compared with the Clippers, who are full of vigor and vitality.
The Spurs simply looked like they were dying.
It's incomprehensible that the Spurs kept going forward in the regular season and won 60 games.
Why did it end up like this in the playoffs?
"Before the collapse of an empire, there is often an exciting reflection, which makes people think that the empire is about to get out of trouble and fly again, but they don't know that it is a climb before a dive in order to fall even more miserably!"
At the end of the article, Min Congda wrote a paragraph with emotion to express his anger.
Those who didn't know better thought he was a Spurs fan for ten years, but in fact he was only a one-week fan.
After the article was published, Min Congda calmed down and wondered if there was any possibility of a comeback?
In fact, there is. Being behind 0:2 is not the end of the world.
Throughout history, there are many examples of comebacks after falling behind 0:2 in a series.
Like the Spurs and Clippers, it's not uncommon for first place to play eighth and still fall behind 0:2 in first place.
In 1993, the first-place Suns in the Western Conference faced the eighth-place Lakers in the first round, losing the first two home games.
This result was shocking and put Charles Barkley into a huge crisis.
The Lakers were almost on the verge of completing the Black Eight Miracle a year ahead of schedule, and it was a sweep that would be extremely embarrassing for their opponents.
Fortunately, Barkley withstood the pressure and won the third and fourth games with his teammates.
The series was brought back to Phoenix, and the Suns naturally would not let the victory slip away again.
Therefore, in 1993, people only remember Barkley's MVP and the wonderful story of playing 6 games with Michael Jordan in the Finals.
It's easy to forget that they were in danger and on the precipice in the first round, and almost became a big joke in the annals of history a year early.
Barkley also avoided adding the pearl of "MVP who was hacked in the first round" to his hat without a crown.
Now that this pearl is worn on Nowitzki's head, you will know how uncomfortable it is for him, just look at the various comments in public opinion.
The pressure is undoubtedly coming to the Spurs. Min Congda wants to help, but can't find a way.
How can I help? With the Spurs' lineup and this state, he really couldn't come up with any ideas.
We can only hope that Duncan can be like Barkley and fight back in order not to bear this shame.
All day long, Min Congda was so anxious that he stayed in the office in a daze.
He faced the 2k10 game and switched to playoff mode.
Clippers vs Spurs, two rounds of simulations, the Spurs won!
Once 4:2, once 4:1.
"I'm Gan Liliang, what kind of simulation test are you doing at this game company? It's pure nonsense! It's still 4:2, 4:1. If the Spurs lose another game tomorrow, it will be 0:3!"
Trailing 0:3, no team could make a comeback, not one.
Therefore, in the third game, the Spurs must win.
Just when Min Congda was distressed, Racheli knocked on the door and entered the office.
The fat man went with him to San Antonio a few days ago and witnessed the Clippers' two away wins over the Spurs.
That was such a joy. It allowed Peele and Key to shoot a lot of material, and the theme of this year's documentary can be decided.
As soon as Racheli came, Min Congda felt that something was wrong and asked angrily: "If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly and don't delay my game play."
Min Congda is now playing games unscrupulously, and no one has any complaints. Who is letting the team win?
Racheli said: "Mr. Smart, I want to report to you on the tracking status of the NBA-Batman account."
When Min Congda heard this, why were he still tracking my account?
Are you engaged in media propaganda or are you an agent? Are you staring at me?
Min Congda said: "It's just an account. Why are you always staring at him?"
Racheli said: "You have to keep an eye on it! Not only are we keeping an eye on it, the league is also trying to figure it out. This account always spreads rumors about the Clippers and Mr. Smart. You must find him out! Yesterday, his blog posted another After the game, I read the article and it was so sincere. I guessed that this person must be a Spurs fan and has something to do with the Spurs!"
Min Congda didn't want to talk to him and said, "It's up to you. Go check it out. If you need funds, ask Rosser and I will approve it for you."
This fat man, to be honest, is here to get more funds. Why are you going around in circles with me?
Why are you checking NBA-Batman? Are you Inspector Gordon?
The account IP address and information have long been hidden by the system.
Even Twitter itself doesn’t know who is behind the account, so where can you check?
Racheli smiled and said: "One more thing, you should know that the league punished you with a $20,000 penalty for slamming a reporter with a popcorn bucket."
"Yes, I've already paid the money, what's the problem?"
"That...the league called me. In addition to apologizing to the reporter, there was an additional condition that you must attend the media interview in the third game. You have refused interviews several times."
Ever since the Clippers entered the playoffs, Min Congda has been in a bad mood and has been pushing back and forth in various interviews.
At the Spurs' home court, he had no choice but to push a popcorn bucket over the head of a beautiful reporter.
This incident caused quite a stir in the NBA, which has always attached great importance to cooperation with the media.
If someone like Min Congda doesn't accept an interview, how can he not arouse public outrage if he dunks on a beautiful reporter?
But even so, the league's fine was only 20,000 yuan, and Min Congda was afraid that Min Congda would scold him if the fine was too much.
As the team's media director, Richele naturally has to bear the pressure.
Finally I couldn't bear it anymore and came to my door to beg the general manager for an interview.
Min Congda thought for a while and suddenly asked: "Carrot, in 2003, Tracy McGrady was interviewed after the game. What did he say that angered the Pistons?"
Richley said: "Oh, he said it felt great to get to the second round and then get eliminated by the Pistons."
"Well... very good, then before tomorrow's game, please arrange a pre-game interview for me!"
Racheli finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Min Congda agreed.
But thinking about why he asked about Maddie, I felt a little nervous again.
Mr. Smart wouldn't be talking nonsense again in the pre-game interview.
