More than three hours later, Zhou Quan was lying on the hospital bed. His face was swollen and he had 19 stitches in total. He had gauze taped to him in several places. There was also gauze taped to his right eye, making him a cyclops.
He needs to rest for at least a month. External injuries don't matter, but the vision in his right eye and internal injuries will take time to recover.
This is because he is born with high bone density and hard bones, otherwise the injury would be more serious.
But the bones are hard, and internal injuries are unavoidable. There must be some internal injuries on the body, and the head is a little dizzy now, with a slight concussion.
McCloskey and Chuck Daly stood by the bed, their faces still ugly.
"Zhou, we already know what happened. I can't say you were impulsive or wrong, but you must bear the consequences," McCloskey said.
"I am willing to respect them, but it is a pity that they cannot tolerate me and humiliate me wantonly. We Chinese have never taken the initiative to cause trouble, but we are not afraid of it. Teaching them a lesson is what I must do. Now I can leave, and the team can To buy out my contract, the Los Angeles Kings have contacted my agent." Zhou Quan said calmly.
McCloskey immediately shook his head and let you go. Then the Pistons were really finished. He quickly said: "No, no, no, Zhou, the consequence of what I said is that you will face a lot of pressure from Pistons fans in Detroit.
You are a newcomer, there is no fan base here, and the vast majority of fans are very subjective, and you have not shown any performance yet, so not many people will support you, and they will not think you are right. "
Zhou Quan was startled, it was good to stay, he was not afraid of Ranbir and those guys, they were all weaklings who didn't dare to fight alone.
As for pressure, fighting against heaven and people is endless fun.
"In addition, because your injury was caused by an internal fight, according to regulations, neither the team nor the insurance company will be responsible. Therefore, during your recovery period, the team will compensate you for your medical expenses and lost wages in another form. .
In addition, the team will be responsible for your rental costs, and I will arrange for someone to help you find a safer senior community. "
McCloskey and Chuck Daly didn't say anything more, then left and went to Laimbeer's ward.
Ranbir came off the operating table an hour ago. The bridge of his nose that was kicked down has been repaired and he has woken up from the anesthesia. Now his nose hurts.
He was kicked twice in the head, but what hurt him more was the punches from Zhou Quan when he was pinned to the floor, causing a mild concussion. Now his entire head has almost doubled in size and is now bigger. The original appearance is no longer visible at all.
Zhou Quan's hands are naturally very hard. When he was eight years old, he practiced Iron Sand Palm with his grandfather for three years. After his grandfather died, he stopped practicing. The bone density of his hands is very high. With a real pair of iron fists, hitting people is very painful. .
"Bill, he just reported in today. How did he offend you? I heard that he was going to polish the shoes of you old guys according to the rules. Tell me, what do you think? Is your brain broken? He is your teammate , is the newcomer the team needs, not your opponent..."
McCloskey was calm when he first spoke, but as he spoke, he was almost roaring.
Chuck Daly also said with an ugly look: "Bill, you really did a stupid thing! I asked you to bleed the blood of your opponents, but not your teammates. You ruined this team, you ruined it." Thanks to everyone’s efforts.
Four people fight against a newcomer. The important thing is that this newcomer has not offended you at all and made no mistakes. If word spreads, what happened today will become the biggest scandal in the league. The Bad Boys Legion will become a joke, and you will become a joke.
From today on, no new players will be willing to join us. When you retire, the Pistons will also withdraw from the league because there is no one left. "
Laimbeer is in a very depressed mood now. He knows that he is finished. He defeated one of the four and lost. Especially that rookie is still a small point guard. They have two 211-centimeter centers here. He has lost his prestige in the Pistons. , no one will be afraid of him anymore.
Moreover, that rookie is too cruel, I'm afraid he won't let him go. He will be sad in the Pistons in the future. Thinking of this result, he has the idea of death.
At this time, he couldn't help but think of retiring.
However, what kind of reputation can he get if he retires in such an embarrassment?
Being beaten out of the league by a rookie, and a rookie on the team? Then he will definitely become the biggest joke in the NBA.
He was unwilling to give in.
"You are suspended for five games in the regular season and fined US$30,000. Anyway, you have money. Also, you should know that you are responsible for your medical expenses and lost wages."
After yelling at Laimbeer, McCloskey took Chuck Daly to Thomas' ward.
Thomas's wife was crying by the bedside. After the two entered, she cried even harder.
Isiah Thomas's nose bridge was also collapsed and several teeth were knocked out. The teeth have not yet been repaired, but the nose has been repaired. He has just woken up from the anesthesia and is crying in pain.
Like Ranbir, his head was enlarged, and his face was swollen to the point where he couldn't see its original appearance. He received at least five heavy blows from Zhou Quan. In addition to trauma, he also suffered a mild concussion. This was still Zhou Quan's general. The injury he hit by pressing it on the wardrobe was mainly due to injuries, otherwise the concussion would have been more serious and the injury would not have been less serious than Ranbir's.
After a long silence, McCloskey asked in a low voice: "Tell me, Isiah, do you not need a substitute? Do you not want the team to have new players? Do you hope the team has no future?"
Can you beat Jordan without the help of your teammates? Without the addition of new players, can you beat Jordan? If you can, I will trade the week immediately and clear out all the newcomers immediately. "
"In that case, you will be rubbed on the floor by Jordan's Bulls. Do you still want to be swept by the Bulls?" Chuck Daly added.
Thomas was so angry that he groaned. With this groan, his nose and teeth started to hurt again, his brain also hurt, and he became even more angry and wanted to vomit blood.
Chuck Daly added: "You really went too far this time. Zhou is a newcomer, he is your junior, and he respects you, but you teamed up with Ranbir and others to beat him. Where is your conscience?" Seiya, you disappoint me so much! Your behavior is more abhorrent and disgusting than a street gangster!"
McCloskey then scolded: "The impact of this incident is too bad. No young people will be willing to join the Pistons in the future. All rookies will reject the Pistons because they will worry about being beaten to death by you in the locker room. You guys The bastard has ruined the Pistons."
"well!"
Thomas' face was hot from being scolded, and he sighed deeply. His reputation in this life was completely lost in one fell swoop.
His wife didn't dare to cry anymore. After all, four of her husbands bullied one of them and lost the fight. She really didn't have the face to cry, so she just kept crying secretly.
McCloskey then said again: "I'm telling you my decision now. I won't trade Zhou, and I won't touch you. I don't care what you do, this team is like this, it's already like this.
Either you stick together and fight against Michael Jordan; or you keep fighting and fall into the abyss together, it's your choice. "
Thomas's eyes were suddenly as cold as ice, and when he thought about continuing to stay with that damn rookie and hugging each other as brothers, his brain felt like it was about to burst with pain.
As for continuing to fight, Shet, although he is fearless, he is not a masochist. He is a character ten times more ruthless than Rick Mahon. Anyone who fights that damn rookie again will be a fool.
Chuck Daly said: "Isiah, you have enough time now, think about it slowly. In addition, you will be suspended for five games, fined US$10,000, and you will be responsible for medical expenses and lost wages."
Thomas closed his eyes in anger, his brain ached, and he opened his mouth to breathe heavily.
For the other two, Johnselli's main injury was that his left foot was stepped on by Zhou Quan. Fortunately, it was protected by sneakers and there was no fracture. However, the nail of his big toe was stepped on and blood flowed all over the sole of the shoe, so he had to rest. Three weeks.
The one with the least serious injuries was Mark Aguirre, who had some problems with his jaw, bleeding gums, and several loose teeth. He left after treatment in the hospital.
Both were also suspended for five games and fined $10,000.
This matter is like this for the time being, suppressed by the management, and the media has not received news for the time being.
Five people entered the injured list at the same time, and the Pistons announced that they had contracted the flu, temporarily fooling the media.
