Chapter 453 Persuasion Failed
Detroit was once a well-known Motor City, the fourth largest city in the whole of Mimi, but now with the transfer of industries, the decline of U.S. automobiles has led to earth-shaking changes in the entire city.
With the serious problems brought about by the economic structure of Detroit in the 80s, its social problems became more and more serious. Among them, the serious confrontation between black and white groups, and the deepening contradictions, led to rich people and white people moving to the suburbs or even other cities. Today, 75 percent of the city's population is black.
Therefore, the former Motor City has now become an out-and-out "City of Sin". The unemployment rate, poverty rate, and crime rate have all risen sharply, and Yan Ran is sinking into the abyss step by step.
Like this city, the team in this city is now stepping into the abyss step by step, degenerating into devils, just like their city.
Brutal, bloody, dirty, etc. These words are very suitable for the Pistons, even Pistons fans think so.
However, just like watching WWE, they like such bloody performances, oh, by the way, the name of this wrestling union has not been changed yet, it is still called WWF.
When they saw their own players knocking their opponents to the ground, the audience erupted into cheers. The fans liked to watch those powerful opponents fall under their own iron palms.
Just like now.
In the face of the savage collision of the Pistons players, the Warriors fell down almost every time they scored, and every attack was accompanied by physical collisions. Coupled with the home whistle that still exists tonight, the Warriors are in a very difficult situation .
However, even so, the Warriors still overtook the score in the third quarter after trailing by 5 points in the first quarter.
However, it can only stop here. Entering the fourth quarter, facing the trailing score, the Pistons have already turned their eyes red. Stopped the Warriors' score.
At the same time, in addition to defense, in terms of offense, Dumars and Thomas both broke out in the fourth quarter. Dumars continued his miraculous state in the previous game, and he got whatever he wanted under Richmond's defense.
In addition, Thomas, who was suppressed by Li Weisi in the last game, finally got tough tonight, and used a sharp breakthrough to tear the Warriors' defense and scored consecutively.
In this way, the Pistons finally led the score until the last moment through a two-pronged attack and defense.
But even so, in the last offensive round, the Warriors still had a chance to tie or even kill.
However, at this moment, Li Weisi's breakthrough was tripped by Thomas again, and the referee didn't blow the ball, resulting in a mistake and lost the ball. In the end, the Warriors missed the lore and had to foul the Pistons.
Dumars made two free throws and sealed the victory. The Pistons finally defeated the Warriors 114:110, regained a game at home, and made the big score 2:1, which was given to the Warriors in the playoffs first defeat.
No matter what the means are, the Pistons fans don't care. They sent a lot of cheers to the Pistons players who left the field, hoping that they can make persistent efforts and equalize the big score in the next game.
And this game also attracted a lot of topics in the outside world. Li Weisi's last goal mistake was repeatedly broadcast by the TV station and became a classic clip.
When Li Weisi fell down on the TV again, Frank pointed to the TV and said, "Did you see that? Uncle Stern, is this the game you want?"
"Click!" Stern ignored Frank and turned off the TV.
"Aren't you angry looking at it?" Frank said indignantly.
"Why am I angry? The ratings are so high and so many people are talking about it, I'm too happy!" Stern said nothing, his face was very calm.
In fact, Stern really didn't lie. This year's ratings have reached the highest in history, reaching 16.1. You must know that since CBS broadcast the NBA in 76, it has only reached 15 last year and this year.
"Really? Then why can't I see a little joy on your face? Everyone knows that this year's ratings are so high because of West, and even I'm sure that if Michael and West The ratings will be even higher in the final matchup." Frank directly pierced Stern's disguise and said bluntly.
"I believe this, but I also feel sorry for Michael's failure to enter the finals, but that is because his team is not strong enough. You can't let me interfere with the balance of the game, right?"
"Oh, it's as if you haven't interfered?" Frank despised Stern fiercely in his heart, but of course he didn't dare to say this, he was worried that if he said it, Stern, the dictator of the alliance, would Putting shoes on the Warriors, he can't bet on whether Stern is narrow-minded.
"Of course I don't want you to interfere with the game. On the contrary, I hope the referee can strictly enforce the law and maintain the fairness of the game." Frank said righteously.
Stern was unmoved, he had already seen it, Frank pouted his butt, he knew what Frank was going to fart, so he continued to pretend to be confused: "Isn't the current game unfair?"
"If it was fair, replays like that wouldn't be repeated on TV all the time."
"Hey!" Stern got up, sighed, came to Frank, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I know what you want to say, but things have to be done step by step. The rule modification for malicious fouls is now over. After finalizing the implementation of the next season, you can't let me overturn the league's policy and directly change it to the next game, right?"
"Of course I didn't mean that. I just hope that the referee can see clearly and not let the Pistons commit violence." Frank heard that Stern's attitude eased, and hurriedly took advantage of the slope to go down the donkey path.
"Hehe, what violence? The referee has his own considerations on the court, not to mention, for West and the others, isn't this a challenge? Isn't defeating such an opponent more proof of their hard-won victory?" ? Is it more legendary than one-sided?"
Having said that, no matter what Frank heard, he felt that Stern didn't want the Pistons to be swept in the finals, and wanted to buy a few more tickets?
"But... I just hope that my team members don't get hurt!" Frank finally didn't choose to refute, but changed to sell miserably, hoping to win Stern's sympathy.
However, as the head of the NBA, Stern has no emotions and is ruthless to the end, "There is nothing but this is a test for them. If you want to win the championship, you must first defeat your opponent to prove your strength."
"Okay!" After trying all the methods, but still unable to get back a word from Stern, Frank finally chose to give up persuading Stern, and instead hoped to see if there was a better solution from the team. Method.
