Reverse Growth Superstar

At the end of the game, the two young guards, Irving and Waiters, were quite frustrated.

One wants to be ashamed, the other wants to be the team boss. Today, however, they are all defeated by the same person.

The Cavaliers lasted for three quarters, they mistakenly thought they could create upsets. But the more they hit the back, the more they felt that the gap was huge.

Owen looked at the big screen at the scene, then secretly shook his head. The gap of 108 to 95, 13 points, faithfully reflects the strength of the two teams.

Irving scored 30 points and 4 assists, and it stands to reason that his performance is not bad. But in the fourth quarter, Irving’s disappearance in the decisive battle made it difficult for people to praise him.

Under the cheers of the Grizzlies fans, Owen walked into the player tunnel. However, as the league's popular fried chicken, Owen naturally would not avoid reporters so easily.

At the entrance of the player passage, Owen was intercepted by a reporter.

"Kelly, can you tell me why you suddenly played abnormally in the last quarter?" The reporter's question is not tricky. This is already Owen's luck.

However, this seemingly simple question embarrassed Irving.

"We were completely suppressed by Link. He ended the game. It's a pity that we didn't take away the victory. With Link here, I guess it would be difficult for anyone to take away the victory from the Federal Express Arena."

Irving said, recalling the horror of being dominated by Link in the fourth quarter.

The reporter didn't ask any more, just put Irving back to the player channel. He didn't want to embarrass Irving anymore, because in Irving's eyes, the reporter saw a lot of fear.

This kid is pitiful enough.

On the other side, Link was in a good mood. He not only accepted interviews with most reporters, but also met many fans' signature requirements.

After doing this, Link rushed into the locker room and took out his phone.

Sure enough, on the front page headlines of the official NBA website, it was not the news that the Grizzlies won, nor the remarks that Irving admitted to being defeated by Link.

The headline on the front page clearly read a headline, "NBA officials strongly condemn Morey's inappropriate remarks and demand an apology."

The photo is a photo of the Grizzlies home fans wearing uniform clothes to support Link.

Link leaned against the locker happily, and now the matter was completely resolved.

It was not the first time that Morey saw David Stern, but never had he been as nervous as he is now.

Although Stern is still the president of the NBA, in fact everyone knows that Stern is now interested in cultivating vice president Adam Xiaohua. Many things in the alliance are actually handled by Xiao Hua.

Now Stern, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is honorary president. He no longer does many things by himself.

But this time, Stern flew to Houston himself and sat in front of Morey. This general manager who has a background in data analysis knows that things have become quite serious.

"Darrell, you should know what we mean?" Stern looked at Morey seriously. In the 90s and early 21st century, it was the players that were difficult to manage.

Stern really couldn't think of it. Now even the general manager with a high level of education is starting to get muddled?

"I know, I also accept punishment." Morey nodded slightly, very regretful.

The league's penalty decision was relayed to Morey through the Rockets last night.

First, Morey will be fined $20,000 for his inappropriate remarks.

In an era when the stars were only fined a few thousand dollars for fighting, the league's fine for Morey can be said to be very heavy.

After the fine, Morey must also hold a press conference. Apologize to Link and those who were hurt by his remarks.

Morey should be thankful that he has not been suspended. But having said that, it hasn't been stopped, and I don't know if this is a good or a bad thing.

After all, Morey's reputation in the NBA is now completely rotten. With his current interpersonal relationship, it is really difficult to reach a deal with the other team.

However, even if the punishment was so heavy, Morey readily accepted it in front of Old Man Stern.

Is Morey not afraid? No, this cunning fat man knew he would lose a lot.

The reason why he accepted the league's penalty decision so readily is because he knows that he has no retreat.

You have to accept if you don't accept it!

The NBA caring action is a very important part of the NBA to close the distance between stars and fans. Stern doesn't care whether Morey's original intention is to deny the caring action, he only knows that once you make the people think you are like that, you have to shut up.

After Stern left, Morey still sat blankly in his office.

Kouhi is refreshing for a while, but when a person is responsible for untimely Kouhi, it may not be so refreshing.

On March 9, the day after the Grizzlies and Cavaliers match. Rockets players who seem to have nothing to do with this game, but met a large number of reporters outside the training hall.

Today, the Toyota Center was surrounded by water!

Harden was stunned. This is probably the most time he has seen reporters at the Toyota Center.

The purpose of the reporters' trip is not the players, nor is it to interview the Rockets against the Suns tomorrow.

These reporters gathered here today, all for the afternoon press conference.

Everyone knows that Link and Morey's tumultuous incident is finally coming to an end.

At four in the afternoon, the media reception room in the Toyota Center was overcrowded. I don't know, I thought the Rockets made some blockbuster deals.

There are no stars, no Rockets owner, and no other people on the stage. Only Morey sat there alone.

No one would choose to stand with Morey on matters such as NBA Cares.

Morey looked at the densely packed reporters underneath, with a desperate expression on his face.

Those people underneath are all preparing to take their own operations!

The press conference is about to begin, and reporters are doing the final equipment debugging.

Morey sat on the stage, waiting. But at this moment, the phone in Morey's pants pocket rang.

At this time, who will send a message to himself? Could it be the official PR draft sent by the Alliance?

Morey couldn't wait to turn on the phone, and sure enough, the Alliance did not abandon itself!

But the moment the phone screen turned on, Morey was disappointed.

It was not the league who sent the text message, nor was it Rockets owner Alexander. Morey is very familiar with the name and number of the sender. Because at the beginning, he made this phone call and let Link get out.

Morey looked at the text message from Link ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and couldn't help shaking his hands.

"This is a gift I returned to you, Darrell. Of course, I am glad that you were not fired. Because of this, I will have more opportunities to embarrass you again and again in the future. I believe, you are also very reluctant to me. ."

Seeing those simple words, Morey was puffed up with anger. In the beginning, he opposed Link, not NBA care. But Link was stunned to use his influence to completely tilt the building.

To put it bluntly, Morey's current position in the field was the result of Link's frantic fanning.

But no way, who made Morey the first thing to do? Although he is very angry now, he is so angry that he yells at Link's stinky Sabi, and he is so angry that he swallows the phone.

But in this room, Morey could only lower his hypocritical head, and then whispered to all reporters.

"I solemnly apologize to Link and to everyone who has been hurt by my inappropriate remarks."

Morey clenched his fists. This was the most humiliating day of his life.
