Yang Rui was in a good mood, and he was smiling when he went to the stadium. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Alan Houston quipped: "Seeing you smiling like this, did you soak in a big beauty last night?" ”

"Isn't it worth rejoicing that the team is one step closer to winning the championship?" Yang Rui asked rhetorically.

The season is still going on, and it's better not to let anyone know about it when he contacts other teams, although assistant coaches generally don't affect the morale of the whole team.

"This is the Bulls, we only won two and lost two in the regular season, don't be too optimistic." Van Gundy walked over from behind and said to Yang Rui.

"Jeff, can you not put pressure on the players, intentionally or unintentionally? It's right that we had a draw in the regular season, but we have reservations, and now that Patrick can shoot from mid-range and attack the basket, and he can play with it, we're going to win." Yang Rui didn't deliberately lower his voice, and some players heard it.

Oakley responded immediately. "Well, the playoffs are different, even if the opponent is Michael, I won't show mercy to him!"

Turning from teammates to rivals didn't alienate Oakley and Jordan. Whenever Jordan came to New York, Oakley would always pull him to find a secluded, elegant place to have a full meal. Even on the court, Oakley, who has always been overly defensive, usually "shows mercy" when facing Jordan.

Of course, it's a way for Oakley to cheer himself up, and he's never been polite to Jordan in the playoffs.

"Let's go, let's get started." Van Gundy smiled and entered the playroom.

In Game 4 of the Heat's home game against the Bulls, the Knicks players and coaching staff went to the arena to watch the live TV broadcast, intending to study the opponent and arrange tactics through this game.

Unexpectedly, after the game started, they unexpectedly watched a big uproar. In the third quarter, Rodman and Mourning clashed violently.

Yesterday, Van Gundy also said in an interview that the Heat was not strong, but only relied on violence, and today such a play came, and the image of the Heat team was completely ruined.

As early as last season, the Heat were blacklisted by President David Stern, and they not only reversed the Knicks by brawl, but in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Mourning also had an argument with Rodman, and neither of the players in question was a first-time offender.

Last season, the Bulls easily took a 3-0 advantage in the first three games, and the Heat were unwilling to be swept to try to get one back.

In the worst case, the two fell off the court without giving in to each other, and Rodman pressed Mourning under him, and Mourning tried to hit Rodman in the head. In the end, the two were separated by the referee, but only a technical foul was blown, and no one was sent off.

The Heat narrowly defeated the Bulls 87-80 in that game, the first time in the history of the playoffs that the Heat won against the Bulls, but they still lost to the Bulls in Game 5 and were eliminated.

This year, history repeats itself, the Heat are 0-3 down, Mourning and Rodman have a lot of defensive moves, skirmishes turned into wrestling tournaments, and then into boxing tournaments, and there was chaos on the court, but "Zen Master" Phil Jackson was not like Van Gundy, and did not rush to the court to hug Mourning's thigh and protect Rodman.

The result of the PK was that Rodman was beaten by Mourning, and the referee sent both off the field.

Rodman is a person, there are always fans who don't know the truth who think he fights very well, but in fact, he rarely makes a move, as long as the other party does it, Rodman will achieve his goal. He used all kinds of lewd actions to provoke the opposing star, just to provoke that person, which he learned from Ranbir.

Although Ranbir is known as the worst man in the NBA, he uses all kinds of bad tricks on the court, but he rarely sees him compete with others, and every time his opponent pushes, he rolls in pain with his face covered in pain. Although Rodman was not obscene to that extent, he would sit in the place where he was violated and demonstrate to the referee whenever he felt that he had been violated and was full of grievances and the referee turned a blind eye, and the referee would not be able to rely on it if he did not change the verdict.

Rodman's performance was smashed this time, and Mourning had a worse temper, so he just did what he said. And Rodman is also on Stern's blacklist, because in 1997 he brought an ugly scene to television, in front of the world, he lost his center of gravity and fell on the sidelines and kicked the photojournalist in the crotch.

After Mourning was ejected, the Heat collapsed in the final quarter, losing the game 80-101 and being swept out of the game 0-4.

The Bulls players also came off the court with black faces, and Rodman could not be suspended, which would put them at a disadvantage in the Eastern Conference finals.

The Bulls are unlucky, the Knicks players are happy, and schadenfreude is really the foundation of happiness.

Van Gundy turned off the TV and walked onto the stage, directly using the two teams as negative teaching materials. "In the next game, everyone must control their emotions, don't do it because the opponent provokes, endure for a while is not soft, our goal is the championship, not to defeat the opponent with fists, do you hear clearly?"

"Clear!" Two restless villains, Johnson and Oakley, led the shout. As long as they don't go crazy, the others generally can't fight.

Van Gundy was in a good mood and laughed: "I won't say much about morale, I think you guys are the best, and then, discuss tactics." ”

The next day, the league announced the penalty decision.

After 2005, brawls of this level would have been banned for at least 10 matches. President David Stern was angry but didn't give heavy penalties to Mourning and Rodman at this juncture.

The two were only fined 5,000 plus one ban each, Rodman will miss the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, and Mourning will accumulate into the regular season next season.

This arrangement is for the sake of the excitement and ratings of the Eastern Conference Finals, if Rodman misses more than one game, I am afraid that the game will lose suspense, and no one wants to see Jordan go out and retire in this way.

Another reason for the alliance's tolerance is that labor negotiations are imminent, and Stern knows that it will be difficult for the two sides to negotiate, and if they impose heavy fines, it will inevitably make labor negotiations more difficult and tarnish the alliance's image.

The world is so wonderful and the players are so grumpy, not good, not good.

Of course, the boss is not willing to raise the salary of such people, watching them take a high salary and fight savagely on the field.

The news media condemned the violence on the court, and only a few Heat fans trumpeted Mourning's "iron blood", believing that he was a superstar and that he was mad with the spirit of not admitting defeat.

Yang Rui thinks it's funny, why is it iron-blooded? This thing is obviously a player who can't afford to lose, and he has been virtuous for two years in a row, and he is completely first-class, and his iron-blooded actions are fouls no matter which basketball league in the world he plays.

The reason for the conflict between Mourning and Rodman is even more speechless, if they are not on the field, but on the street, then the scene is similar to "What are you seeing?" "What do I look at you?" Then the two of them fought.

This kind of thing is normal, who would say hot-blooded? It is more appropriate to describe it as brain-dead.

Sometimes, there is a basketball court between brain-dead and hot-blooded......
