The alliance finally announced the penalty decision at noon the day after the Battle of Tianwangshan in the East.

This is the attitude that NBA headquarters should have. They even gave a detailed investigation report.

The public opinion about this matter is too great.

Moreover, it will directly affect the direction of this season's finals.

Especially after the situation in the east becomes clearer.

The specific penalties are: Dwight Howard is suspended for 1 additional game and fined 2,000 US dollars. Kwame Brown is suspended for 2 games and fined 5,000 US dollars. Jimmy Butler is suspended for 4 games and fined 20,000 US dollars. Chris Paul is suspended for 7 games and fined 20,000 US dollars.

$35,000.

Paul's additional suspension is a combination of two penalties. The league added 2 games for his stepping on the ball, 5 games for elbowing Kwame Brown, and fighting with Jimmy Butler.

Judging from the penalty standards, they are consistent.

But both the Lakers and Clippers are very dissatisfied.

They all expressed their protests and complaints upwards.

The Lakers believe that the league's penalty to the Clippers is too light, while the Clippers believe that this penalty is too severe.

The media’s general perception of this additional fine is that the league left some room, but not much. Moreover, the penalty standards are consistent and fair.

For the Clippers, the landing of this boot means that they will have difficulty in the finals.

The famous sports commentator Bill Simmons even jumped out and said: Jimmy Butler gets a legal vacation. By the time he returns from the suspension, the Finals will be over. My suggestion is that he can book a vacation ticket in advance now.

Of course, there are also a small number of people who firmly say: "The Clippers will get through this difficulty. As long as they win one of the first four games, they will have a chance to drag the game into a tiebreaker, and Fan Xi is best at

A key play in a key battle.”

The schedule of the finals is different from other playoff series. It is a 2-3-2 game system. To a certain extent, this game system is more conducive to teams with weaker regular season records than 2-2-1-1-1.

A team.

However, the Clippers' attrition situation is too serious.

In particular, Jimmy Butler will not return until the fifth game. If he encounters the Heat, the Heat's forward and defensive line is the strongest partnership currently, and can even compete with Jordan Pippen as the strongest in history.

There are many rumors in the Los Angeles media that this is the sour mentality of Lakers supporters after being eliminated.

Fan Xi slowly became calm.

He even asked Yao, Nowitzki, Hill, Billups, Hamilton and Vince Carter to go fishing together.

This is an activity for the old guys.

"We're probably going to play the Miami Heat."

A group of people were sitting by the calm lake, chatting. It was a very pleasant scene and very clean. Not far away, the security personnel of the big stars were examining the surrounding environment, and the chefs they had brought were preparing exquisite dishes for them.

Lunch.

Wherever you have money, you will be happy.

"The Heat have nothing to fear." Nowitzki said nonchalantly while biting an apple from Asia: "If the Dallas Mavericks entered the finals last season, we could easily eat them one bite at a time."

Fan Xi has no doubt about this.

King Nuo has a great psychological advantage over the Big Three.

"Actually, there's nothing to worry about, Jack. We old guys are not idle. We have been recovering throughout the season. Now, it's time for those young guys to rest." Billups said next to him.

Vince Carter, Hamilton, and Grant Hill on the side nodded repeatedly.

These people are all heroes of the moment.

Although some of them have never played in the finals, they have seen many big scenes.

"Chauncy, I'm not a young guy." Stephen Nash complained next to him.

Billups' big head shook. This man nicknamed "Flounder" actually debuted later than Nash. Nash was born in 1996, and Billups was the third overall pick in 1997. Billups is also two years younger than Nash.

age.

"Who asked you to take away my playing time?" Billups said pretending to be angry. Then he was full of pride: It's time to let them know my power. I don't come to Los Angeles to make a living. I am Mr. Key.

,I am the finals mvp!

Billups is so proud.

While he was talking, his fishing rod was pulled away by a big fish. He hurriedly went to close the rod and almost fell into the water, which made everyone laugh.

However, he soon caught a big fish weighing over 10 kilograms.

He boasted: "I've always been a winner."

Everyone laughed for a while, and Grant Hill stood by the lake and sighed: "I never dreamed that my first trip to the finals would come like this. This is the wish I want to achieve most in my career."

"I'm mentally prepared to burn everything for the championship."

Grant Hill said firmly.

His chiselled face bore an unprecedented firmness of faith.

For this former Jordan successor, perhaps his legendary story has long since dissipated in people's dusty memories. Perhaps for young fans, this man should have retired due to injuries many years ago. Perhaps

All he left behind was the image of being overpaid and incompetent.

But for Grant Hill, all the past twists and turns are real, and the original belief has always been firmly concentrated in his heart.

Now, Duke's greatest and most outstanding superstar is fighting for the most dazzling honor of his career.

"Me too."

Yao Ming agreed softly beside him.

For Yao Ming, he is already a player who has "died" once. After returning from retirement, every game is extra money. Now that he has the opportunity to win the championship, why not give it a try?

He no longer wants to sit on the bench and wait for his chance.

He no longer wants to hold his watch and play every game.

He has emphasized this topic with Fanshie many times. After Kwame Brown was injured, he once again asked the coaching staff and the physical fitness team for additional training.

But he was not satisfied.

Fan Xi will not satisfy him either.

"Fishing is obviously a matter of self-cultivation, why do you old guys turn it into a swearing-in ceremony?"

Fan Xi teased everyone angrily.

"Let's talk about something lighter. Hey, Vince, I hear your wife is pregnant again?"

"You didn't delay anything." Fan Xi teased Carter.

Carter said to Fan Xi: "Jack, you should also hurry up. At your age, most of us are fathers."

Fan Xi shrugged his shoulders. He didn't want to talk about having children. He was not an expert in this area. Moreover, in Fan Xi's impression, it seemed that only black people gave birth to children so early, usually in their teens.

Become a father.

Then he started to change the topic.

"Let's guess what kind of gossip TMZ will break out on Friday. I heard it's unprecedented breaking news. Leonardo told me it will be a super big name in Hollywood."

Fan Xi said: "But he promised it wasn't him. He said his relationship was stable recently and there was no big news."

Even these multi-millionaires and billionaires are nosy, and they begin to discuss who will fall into the crosshairs of Hollywood's largest media website.

Although by Friday night, they might have been on a plane to Chicago or Miami.

It's Tuesday now.

Tonight is the sixth game of the Eastern Conference Finals. If there is a seventh game, it will be on Thursday.

…

Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals will be held at the United Center.

On the way back from fishing, Fan Xi and Derrick Rose had a phone call that lasted more than 20 minutes. Fan Xi told Rose on the phone: Slow down the pace and never play fast with them. Although you are fast, you are unstoppable.

, but your teammates don’t follow up in time, and occasional sneak attacks and counterattacks are okay. However, don’t expect that you can kill LeBron and Wade alone.

"Let Caron Butler hold up James. If James wants to post up, Luol Deng can attack him appropriately. His post-up skills are not great, but he has a good combination of strength, speed and explosive power. As long as you find the key

, he will give up this attack point by himself."

Fan Xi gave a lot of advice.

Fanshi has a very high basketball IQ. Moreover, his post-up skills are very gorgeous, which is inherited from Michael Jordan.

In the evening, Fanci was sitting in front of the TV, with Taylor Swift sitting in his arms. They had just completed a very intense and perfect communication.

Now that Taylor has no strength, she lies happily in Fan Xi's arms and watches the game with Fan Xi.

"Jack, they said that this year's finals will be more difficult for you because the Lakers' guards used machinations to cause you to lose three players, right?"

Taylor Swift also pays attention to news in the basketball circle. In fact, she is a shareholder of the Clippers.

But she really doesn't care much.
