116. Public Opinion (1/3
April 25.
If there is any NBA event that is the most popular today, it must be the fight between the Thunder and the Nuggets.
Even the Jazz beat the Lakers 93:89 away, they could only stand behind and wait and see.
Although the fight on the court happened too suddenly, when Mason rode on Jones and punched, many fans on the scene took out their mobile phones to shoot, and then posted it online.
As soon as these videos were released on the Internet, the number of clicks began to rise at a rocket-like speed.
At the same time, news about the description of this game emerged one after another, as if there were only two teams left in the entire league overnight.
In addition, there was a fight and conflict between the Nuggets and the Thunder, and the NBA League also issued a penalty immediately regarding this matter.
It is not difficult to see from the league's penalty results that the league has absolutely zero tolerance for fighting behavior, especially in such a highly anticipated playoff occasion.
According to the latest penalty results released by the league, Mason of the Thunder was too bad in the field, so the league finally decided to ban Mason from two games and a super high fine of $20,000.
You know, Mason's personal salary this season is only $1.5 million.
Another fuse for the fight, Jones, was eventually given a fine of $15,000 by the league for one game.
As for the final Kenyon Martin avoided being suspended from the league, but at the same time he also received a $5,000 fine issued by the league.
It can be said that when this result was announced, fans from outside kept clamoring for fun.
After all, since the Auburn Mountain Palace, although the league has been constantly having small frictions on the court every year, the boxing behavior of blood on the ground like yesterday has not happened for many years.
In other words, there were not many players involved in the fight yesterday, otherwise in a sense, "Martial Saint" Jackson could definitely be truly recorded in history.
Do whatever you go! If you don’t do it yourself, let your teammates do it. This is simply a cruel person!!
That's right, there are too many statements in the outside world at this time, and some people say that Mason's behavior on the court was definitely approved by the protagonist Yang Fan.
Otherwise, Yang Fan would suddenly take the initiative to switch Mason to the court in such fierce playoff confrontation, which would have been a very suspicious behavior.
As for why Yang Fan suddenly switched Mason to the court, it was because Jones kept harassing Jackson in small moves and attacking trash talk throughout the first half.
Therefore, in order to stand up for his players, Yang Fan asked Mason to come on the court to educate him, and planned to adopt a strategy of one-for-one.
No one expected that in the end, Kenyon Martin jumped into this vortex and was eventually expelled by the referee, successfully helping the Thunder defeat the Nuggets away, rewriting the total score of this round of series to 2:0.
In addition, many people on the Internet said that Yang Fan treats people more gently on weekdays and does not look like someone who is too irritable.
So although Yang Fan gave this arrangement a pity, it is very likely that the "Martial Saint" Jackson had enough of Deng Tai Jones' harassment. When he was unable to take the initiative to take action, Mason came on the court to vent his anger for him.
But no matter how many versions there have been rumored to be reported in the outside world, there is one thing that is, people are surprised to find that in addition to playing better than before in the new season, this Thunder team seems to be much better in the fight than before.
"Martial Saint" Jackson and Mason, this pair is not only an invincible match for the league, but at least no one who is blind will take the initiative to provoke these two thorns...
As for this, Jones, who was still lying on the bed for resting at this time, undoubtedly became a classic negative teaching material.

"Don't worry, Desmond's fine team will pay him. It's not your fault for this. I watched that game too. The Nuggets obviously want to use Deng Tai to anger Stephen."
"They certainly didn't expect that they would shoot themselves in the foot in the end."
Looking at Yang Fan, who seemed to be not concerned about this matter, Prosti was in a very good mood.
In addition to the team's score of 2:0, it is more because the boss praised him on the previous phone.
Among them, he gave a very satisfactory affirmation about his signing of Yang Fan as the head coach under the offseason.
He even said that he would implement his incentive clause in the contract in advance, and this bonus could definitely be regarded as a considerable salary for Prosty.
"By the way, the outside world is not very friendly to you at present, and many people think this is a way for you to deliberately deal with the Nuggets."
"But I think there may be a shadow of the Nuggets behind this incident. They are manipulating public opinion and trying to pour all the dirty water of this incident on you."
"Because I probably took a look at these reports, and the whole process was full of personal criticism of you, but the Nuggets' behavior was not mentioned at all."
"But don't worry, I have arranged public relations for this matter. Although it is impossible to completely suppress these public opinions, at least it can be significantly alleviated."
I picked up a cup of coffee casually. I wonder if it was Prostie's illusion, but Prostie found that today's cup of coffee was more delicious than before.
Even if this is no different from what I drank yesterday.
"Bah! These guys want to be bitches and set up archways, but that's nothing. Anyone with a discerning eye can see what's going on."
"As for those who keep shouting and setting the pace online, they think they have discovered the true meaning of things, but they don't know that they are the group of fools who are finally kept in the dark."
He lit a cigarette casually and Yang Fan sucked nicotine into his lungs hard. At this moment, Yang Fan also felt unprecedented relaxation.
Because the Thunder will play at home in the next game. Although judging from the current situation, the Thunder may not have any home advantage, but fortunately, the players finally don't need to play in the ghost place in Denver.
As for the public opinion in the outside world, Yang Fan didn't take it seriously at all. After all, for Yang Fan, who was a human being for two lifetimes and had truly seen the Internet era, all this can only be said to be a minor meaning.
What's more, Yang Fan knows better than anyone that in business alliances like NBA, people who can arouse external discussions have always been people with extraordinary status.
So the more doubts a person has, the more he can prove his personal influence.
This is even stronger than Michael Jordan.
Of course, the above point does not include Bogut, because it must be an individual on the premise of this point.
But sorry, Bogut is not...
