Chapter 203 No one can get better
There used to be only one mortal enemy of the Miami Heat, that is, the Knicks, not only because Pat Riley came from the Knicks, but also because they fought in the playoffs in the late 1990s.
Sometimes the winner is the Knicks, and sometimes the winner is also the Heat, although not many times.
It is nothing new if the NBA playoffs meet for several years in a row, but the collision between the Heat and the Knicks is definitely a very strange phenomenon, because from the 1996-1997 season to the 1999-2000 season, the Miami Heat played against the New York Knicks in the playoffs for four consecutive years, and this After four encounters, they all hit the seventh game.
"BloodandMuscle" is the most accurate word to describe the confrontation between them.
And these four confrontations were played when the Heat had a home advantage. They only succeeded in turning over once, and the rest were dragged to the last game, and then watched the Knicks leave.
At the beginning, the two teams also had a fierce group fight on the court. The picture of Comrade Van Gundy lying on the floor and hugging Mo Ning's thighs. Now he is still being turned over and said that it is a model for the coach to protect the players.
There are so many grievances entangled in it. Don't expect that there will be any peace between the Knicks and the Heat. Anyway, if the two sides meet, they will step on each other. Whoever wins will celebrate crazily.
Even if the person who fought in the group at the beginning has almost retired, the relationship between the two teams is a little deeper and deeper. Every time they meet, the scene will be very hot.
It's just that where the Knicks' strength is now. New Yorkers have been a little timid when they encounter the Heat in recent years, and this situation has become a little more and more serious as the Heat wins the championship.
But Miami fans can guarantee that after this night, the Heat's rival list will put the Celtics side by side with the Knicks, and even they dare to say that they hate the former more.
There's nothing we can do. The last time the last conflict was at the home of the Knicks. Anyway, it was an away game. Mo Ning was given a fight by Larry Johnson. In the end, because he was banned, the Heat lost the final battle.
But this scuffle happened in front of my house! Those Bostonians are obviously coming to the door! In the face of this situation, how can Miami people swallow their anger? Don't forget, they are the champions!
This is the territory of the championship, but it makes others wild! I guess no one can stand it, and in the last few minutes of the game, almost more than 10,000 Miami fans were jumping and roaring at the Celtics!
Get out of here! You damn Bostonians! Hurry up and get back to your territory! You are not welcome here!"
There is no demeanor at this time. The already enraged Miami fans have completely gone away.
The security personnel at the scene were really a little confused, because they found that if something really happened, they really couldn't stop these fans who were already a little violent.
If the Auburn Hills incident is repeated, there will definitely be a more fierce conflict than that in the American Airlines Center Arena.
These security personnel probably regret most now that they don't have a high salary, but they have to face a high risk. If the two sides pinch, it will be lively.
But fortunately, God takes good care of these unlucky people, and there is little time left for the game.
And the game seemed to have become dispensable after the conflict in the last few minutes. No one shouted for a timeout. Both Rivers and Riley chose to be silent. They seemed to have completely separated from the game.
There was no tactics, no adjustment, no substitution, and even the head coaches on both sides did not continue to speak.
Especially Rivers, he didn't carefully prepare any tactical arrangements at all, that is, to let Scala Bryan replace the senter Chen Feng, and then use Tony Parker to take Pierce's position.
In fact, these substitution movements were all made by Thibodeau, because he saw his partner's watery expression, which was really too scary. He dared to promise. If possible, Rivers didn't mind walking to Riley firmly, because all this was because of the tactical arrangement of the damn old man. !
Without his black hand's order, the game might have just become more intense, and it wouldn't have become like this!
However, Siebodeau's substitution is just to give the players on the court a complete lineup. When Pierce and Chen Feng get off the court, it is equivalent to weakening their 50% of their combat effectiveness.
As for the result, it is estimated that few people care about it at this time, including the referee. Everyone expects the game to end early, because the chaos in the scene just now is almost broken.
And there is also a group of excited fans in the stands around the stadium, which are what they are most worried about now.
Rivers didn't have any tactical adjustment, and so did Riley. He just let the players control the remaining few minutes by themselves. Even when the Heat led all the way in the last few minutes, he was expressionless.
Not only is Riley's expressionless, but the players of the Heat are also very silent after winning the game. They usually like to nagging about Peyton endlessly, and they are not interviewed by any media.
In fact, everyone refused the interview from the media. It was not only the Heat, but also the Celtics. At the end of the game, the whole team, including logistics personnel, got into the locker room and the door was closed.
Before the reporters over there could react, the Celtics had already slipped away. These guys didn't even take a shower in the locker room, so they changed their clothes and left in a hurry.
As for the post-match press conference, Riley and Rivers are also very tacit and absent at the same time. Anyway, there are any penalties in the future. For them now, it is no longer a matter.
Compared with the follow-up events that may be caused by this conflict, it is no longer a problem not to go to the press conference. Instead of talking to those reporters who are looking for news, it is better to go back and think about how to be responsible for the fight. After all, the most severe punishment in the NBA league now is this kind of violence in the field. Conflict.
Well, although the process of the conflict was only a short half-minute, it was really a violent conflict. Chen Feng and O'Neill, at least in the process of the fight, damaged the two cameras on the sidelines.
In addition, the cameras in the hands of two reporters have also suffered. Anyway, this is indeed a little big deal. Rivers's frown has not unfolded at all since the outbreak of the conflict.
The situation on Riley's side is not much better. Even if he is experienced and directs Lao La, he has been in the league for more than 30 years, but it is not so easy to solve such a difficult thing.
And the most troublesome problem for Riley is that no matter what caused the conflict, O'Neal is the one who did it first, and I'm afraid it can't be avoided.
Although Riley now knows why O'Neal did it, it can't be used as direct evidence.
Don't say it's shameful to say this, just because it doesn't have much strength at all. After all, when playing NBA games, you will always encounter the other party talking rubbish.
Just like Peyton, his big mouth has also sprayed countless people in those years. If he wants to beat him, I'm afraid this guy will not live today. Similarly, what Chen Feng said is not the reason for O'Neill to do it.
At the critical moment when the team won the game, Riley really didn't expect that such an ordinary regular season would cause him the biggest trouble.
Although the final winner of this game is the Heat, looking back now, Riley even feels that it is not as good as losing. At least after losing, he only needs to deal with the criticism from the media and fans.
Now it's all right. In addition to the pressure on the above two aspects, he has to consider how to explain to the team's boss. After all, the people involved now are O'Neal, Wade, and Haslem.
If this is really in the face of a ban, who knows how many games to defend the title? If they are all banned, they will defend their title! Riley may only think about keeping a place in the playoffs at that time.
Rivers is actually very uneasy. He didn't say anything for nearly six or seven minutes on the sidelines. He is also planning for future games.
This was originally a season of the rise of the Celtics, but this damn group fight may destroy their future, especially the possible severe punishment, the consequences are more and more unimaginable.
Riley's men can't live without Wade and O'Neill. Similarly, Rivers can't live without Chen Feng.
Everyone knows that David Stein is a standard dictator, and this small man's wrist is still very tough. If someone dares to disobey his meaning in the NBA, he will definitely die very miserably. Some people have also tried to challenge Stein's limit, and the result is three Out of the game.
That's an old guy who dares to change the rules of the game in order to create a god, so don't mess with him if you have nothing to do.
Was the rogue army in Detroit strong enough? Even Master Joe felt a headache when he met them. Dumas and Thomas led the double defenders, Bill Ranbir and Mahon, Rodman and others can firmly hold the inside.
But it was such a tough rogue gang, and finally lost the opportunity to win three consecutive championships because of those damn rules. Master Qiao also broke through their blockade, which was the beginning of his own hegemony.
Detroiters have not only suffered a loss from Stein. In the melee of Auburn Hill Palace, there was a ban on Stein, and the Pistons were also implicated. Of course, the most heavy losses were the walkers.
Miller also left the league and chose to retire. His last season was ruined in that melee. If he could give him a full lineup, maybe he could take a step closer.
Of course, all this is just a hypothesis now, and Miller's original ending can only be regarded as his bad luck.
However, it can be seen from these things that the president of Stein is definitely covering the sky with one hand. No matter what happens in this alliance, he will get the news as soon as possible.
So the fight between the Heat and the Celtics is estimated to have been reported to Stein for a long time. As for the subsequent punishment, Rivers and Riley are now speculating uneasily.
Anyway, both of them have feelings. After this damn group fight, it is definitely a mess left to them.
No one took advantage of it this time. It's really a result of both defeats...
