Chapter 422

Due to the high degree of attention in the NBA, the league has always had zero tolerance for fighting.Even if the stars in the league fight, they also need to be fined and suspended, but the specific number of suspended games is extremely critical for the Lakers.

The Lakers management submitted written materials to the league's top management, stating the facts that happened at the time, and striving to reduce or avoid the punishment of Xu Tian.

The league's high-level office ignored the Lakers' written application and discussed a penalty decision. Xu Tian was fined $10 and suspended for four games.

The magician is very harsh on the employees under his opponents, but he is very good to the Lakers players. He called Xu Tian to inform the league of his punishment decision. down the series.This is the first time Xu Tian faces a suspension. Not only does he need to face his teammates, but he also needs to face the media's inquiries about him. The test is still to come.

Woj had access to the league's first-hand sources and tweeted the news to fans around the world.This is undoubtedly a big bad news for Lakers fans.

Bickerstaff was preparing for the offensive and defensive tactics of the second game, when he heard unusual cheers from the next room, he walked out of the room with doubts, and knocked on the door next door.

Beverly lived in this room, heard the knock on the door, went to open the door and saw the head coach standing outside, couldn't help saying excitedly: "Coach, have you read the news? Xu was suspended for four games, Here's our chance to win!"

Bickerstaff thought Beverly was suffering from the aftereffects of being hit by a ball on his head, so he couldn't believe it, and asked, "What? Don't you feel very comfortable?"

Beverly didn't understand what Bickerstaff meant, so he raised the mobile phone in his right hand and pointed to Bickerstaff the tweet posted by Woj.This is equivalent to official news, and it can basically be confirmed that Xu Tian was suspended for four games.

Bickerstaff couldn't believe his eyes. He took the phone from Beverly and checked it several times. He didn't return the phone until he couldn't be more convinced that Xu Tian had been suspended for four games. Beverly.He was a little excited, as if the door of victory had been opened to them.

After Xu Tian was sent off, Kobe and George struggled to lead the team to stabilize the situation. In the end, they narrowly beat the Rockets and won the first series.But that was based on Xu Tiantian's huge point difference before the game. If Xu Tian's help was not there from the beginning, no one would know what the Lakers would be able to do.

Xu Tian recently moved to the quieter Walnut City in order to reduce his energy in life.This time it wasn't at Boss Jin's house, but a small residence he newly bought. The environment was very comfortable, and he and Alice lived here.

Boss Jin learned that Xu Tian was suspended for four games due to fighting, so he called him, comforted him and asked him to be patient, believing that his teammates would surely create miracles.

This is not the first time Xu Tian has been suspended, but he was suspended for four games in the playoff series, which still made him feel unusually self-blaming.If the team is eliminated by the Rockets like this, his hard work and commitment to fans and teammates throughout the season will be in vain.This is a cruel thing, and he doesn't want to think about it.

Scott originally thought that the first round of the game was a safe bet, but with this unexpected situation, everything needed to be reshuffled.Four games are enough to affect the entire series.

ESPN urgently summoned several ace commentators to the headquarters to discuss the possible impact of Xu Tian's suspension on the Lakers in the late-night program, and where the first round of the series will go.Stephen A. Smith was naturally invited.

Stephen A. Smith said straight to the point: "In the history of the NBA, it is rare for a core star to be suspended due to impulsiveness, let alone in the playoffs when he is facing elimination. This phenomenon will undoubtedly make him, The Lakers and Lakers fans all over the world will face a huge test. Xu has experienced a lot of negative news at the beginning of the season and may be able to withstand the pressure, but what about the Lakers? Can they still break through the first round? This has become an uncertain answer .”

McGrady also came to the scene. After listening to Smith's words, he said: "I should remain neutral in this round of the series, but since I am here, I still have to express my own views. Before Xu's suspension, I never thought that the Rockets could advance to the second round. , but he was suspended for four games, so I kind of believe that the Rockets can go straight to the cut."

Chauncey Billups sat next to McGrady and said: "Most of the gap between the Rockets and the Lakers is because Xu is an undefendable point. Now that he is suspended, the Lakers are no longer superior to the Rockets. And the Lakers The bench is weak, as long as the Rockets make good use of this, they have a chance to take advantage of these four games to win the series."

Stephen A. Smith said: "I agree with Chauncey's point of view. Although there are many good young players in the Lakers' bench, they didn't play very well in the first game. Te Capela, Patrick Beverley and Donatas Motiejunas are still far behind."

McGrady said: "But the Lakers still have Kobe and Paul George. With these two stars, it is still impossible to say that the Lakers will be eliminated directly."

Chauncey Billups said: "Kobe was once the most dazzling superstar in the league, but he no longer has the ability to change the results of the game with one hand, but after all, he has won several championships. It is really not easy to say that he cannot perform. But the chances are slim."

Xu Guangcai couldn't accept that Xu Tian was suspended for fighting, so he called overseas and scolded his son.He thought that Xu Tian was now a father-to-be, no longer a child, and he was responsible for all his words and deeds, so he didn't show mercy.

Xu Tian has experienced several setbacks, but this time he really felt different. He comforted his father a few words, returned to the living room and lay on the sofa, and couldn't help worrying about the team's prospects.He hated the feeling that he might not be able to play in the playoffs this season, but it was all caused by himself, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Alice was more gentle than usual. She sat beside Xu Tian, ​​let him rest his head on her lap, and asked with a smile if she heard her son's heartbeat.Since the United States does not restrict fetal sex identification, they already know that they are about to welcome a son. Of course, this is ridiculed as having no Mamba spirit.

Xu Tian didn't understand the development process of the fetus, so he leaned closer to Alice's belly to listen, but he didn't hear anything.But he knew that there was indeed a little life there, which made him less depressed.

The next morning, the Los Angeles fans who didn't stay up all night waiting for the news knew the bad news, and began to worry about this team that made the playoffs again after two seasons.Whether they will be eliminated by the Rockets is really unpredictable.
