"I don't want to say that we were treated unfairly in this game, but in the Delta Center, we became victims of the game because of some of the penalty. It was not a normal foul. Such an action should have been discovered, but they did not make that penalty and left that guy on the court all the way!"

It was almost early in the morning at 11:00 on May 30, 1994. After the Jazz's home game with the Rockets, the media room filled with reporters was almost quiet and terrifying. The head coach of the Jazz team, Jerry Sloan, who was the winner of this game, looked at the angry Rockets head coach beside him in a daze.

In this game, the Jazz defeated the Rockets at home again. For very reporters, this game is a good material. Although the score of this game is not very intense, the content of this game is too rich, and it is even unbelievable, because Lin Han gave his first playoff fight in this game. With Lin Han's current popularity and popularity and Drexler's popularity and popularity, the conflict with Drexler can be compared to Jordan, who entered the finals for the first time, would have the same effect if he had a conflict with the Magic.

So although the score in this game is not very good and the final result is not very good, when Jerry Sloan and Tom Janovic appeared, the group of reporters at the scene were still extremely excited because they could already imagine the sales of newspapers tomorrow. As long as the fight between Lin Han and Drexler can be hyped up, there will be no worries about not being able to sell the newspapers. So they are really planning to "should [information] confession" these two head coaches at this time, so they can let them say more materials. It would be best if the two fight each other on the spot.

But what the reporters who had already prepared very well never expected was that the Rockets head coach Tom Janovic and Jerry Sloan had just sat down, and the reporters at the scene had not asked a question. The Rockets head coach took the lead and said angrily. When the group of reporters at the scene heard what Tom Janovic was saying, the reporters who were originally prepared very well looked at the Rockets head coach in amazement. Of course, Jerry Sloan on the side was almost the same.

Although Lin Han and Drexler's conflict in this game, although Lin Han's behavior and actions were even worse, even in the current NBA, which still advocated the so-called iron-blooded NBA, it was just a foul. Compared with that, sitting on the opponent's side and hitting the opponent, after the opponent stood up, he chased the opponent's bench. This kind of arrogance and domineeringness is not comparable to that of Anthony Mason, the Knicks player who likes to chase people on the court. Similarly, it is hard to say whether such behavior will be suspended, but it is absolutely not an exaggeration to be sent out. Therefore, if only Lin Han chases a Rocket player like him to play, Lin Han is not sent off in the end. There is nothing wrong with Tom Janovic's statement.

However, the key is that although Lin Han's actions and behaviors are very bad. Drexler's behavior of the Rockets is not much better. This guy pulled Lin Han's hind legs behind him and finally exerted force. This behavior is the same as Malone's side foul on Thomas, and it is a retaliatory action that has lost control of the game, and it is a bad retaliatory action. The only difference is that after Thomas was elbowed by Malone, the Pistons' king of football was stunned and could not play the game. Lin Han has stronger ability to resist falling and nothing happened. In this case, if Lin Han is sent off, Drexler will also be sent off.

Therefore, the whole world can condemn Lin Han for his arrogance and domineering on the court, but no one in the Rockets is qualified to say anything to Lin Han chasing Drexler, because Drexler and the Rockets also take advantage.

Therefore, when Tom Janovic came up and disguised himself as a victim and his team as a victim, everyone at the scene was looking at Tom Janovic as if he was watching a monster.

But facing these eyes, Tomjanovic, who was already in the state at this time, didn't care at all, but was still accusing the referee and Lin Han of the game with anger.

"Lin Han is a very outstanding young man. His strength has reached a very high level. However, because of his age and his youth and success, many of his behaviors on the court are outrageous. He should have become a benchmark player, but many of his current practices are slowly moving to another path. His behavior against Clyde in this game reminds me of his many behaviors in the regular season. He is now slowly moving to the brink of losing control!"

"And what is even more incredible is that because of the league and fans' favor for him, he avoided many punishments again and again, and the league and fans' favor for him will indirectly ruin him!"

At this time, Tomjanovic was extremely immersive and inflammatory, whether it was his expression or tone. If anyone who had not watched this Jazz and Rockets game heard the Rockets head coach's accusation against Lin Han and the referee, he would probably really believe it, but at this time, the atmosphere at the scene was a bit weird.

Because the fans and Jerry Sloan looked at Tom Janovic more and more strangely. Although everyone was still silent, they didn't know what the Rockets head coach wanted to do at this time. They really didn't know what the Rockets head coach wanted to do at this time.

There is no fool or idiot who can sit here. Jerry Sloan is not, nor is the reporter at the scene. Although many times reporters need to pretend to be idiots and fools, this will facilitate them to make brainless sprays and brainless blacklists on players, but this does not mean that they are really idiots. Those who treat them as idiots are idiots.

At this time, didn’t Tom Janovic just treat him as an idiot? But the key is, is Tom Janovic an idiot? Of course not. Neither Jerry Sloan nor the reporters on the scene think that Tom Janovic is an idiot. But since he is not an idiot, why did he say such idiot words at this time and do such idiot behavior?

"I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people. I swear!"

So, when Tomjanovic was still running and fighting against Lin Han and the referee in this game regardless of the situation, some younger reporters below had already started to whisper. However, after the scolding, they were all stared at by the older seniors around them.

But there was a sudden noise like this at the originally quiet press conference, even if the sound was not loud, Tomjanovic could hear it.

When hearing the extremely harsh remarks from these reporters, the Rockets head coach had a hint of helplessness and pain in his angry face and eyes. If ordinary people did not concentrate, they would not have captured this change in Tomjanovic.

Of course, Tomjanovic was constantly squirting, and some reporters at the scene had to interrupt him, but there was no chance. What was even more speechless was that after Tomjanovic accused Lin Han and the referee alone for more than ten minutes, the Rockets head coach did not give any interview opportunities to the reporter on the scene. After saying this, he patted his butt and left, which made the reporters at the scene speechless.

In the end, the only material that the reporter who was presented by Tom Janovic could get from the Rockets head coach was his "accusation" against Lin Han and the referee.

At this time, the reporter at the scene had no idea what Tom Janovic wanted to do, but Jerry Sloan frowned at this time. Although he couldn't figure out what Tom Janovic wanted to do, as the head coach of the Jazz, he was a head coach who was extremely cautious. He would not allow any strange situation to be spared, so after being stunned at the beginning, Jerry Sloan was the first person to guess what this guy was going to do.

"Does he want to make this matter bigger and cause public opinion to cause serious punishment for Lin Han?"

When Jerry Sloan thought of this, he was a little stunned, but he quickly turned off this idea because if Lin Han was punished, he would never let Drexler go. Although Drexler was completely defeated by Lin Han in this game, the importance of the Rockets is the same as that of Lin Han to the Jazz. And if this situation really occurs, Drexler's penalty may be heavier than Lin Han's! Without Drexler, Lin Han can focus his defensive attention on other players. At that time, the Rockets will be really finished!

"Is he really just a simple quibbling to find a scapegoat for the team's failure so that the Rockets players will not lose confidence in the game?"

Although the Rockets lost two consecutive away games. This is very bad, especially the two consecutive losses are completely different from the two consecutive losses they encountered in the Suns in the first round. Losing to the Suns is because the two leading players of the team are in extremely poor condition. They are still adjusting their state. As long as they adjust them properly, they can win. This is also proved later, so they really don’t feel that they can’t win the game 0-2.

However, it is different to lose to the Jazz two consecutive games, because the two leading players of their team have fully exerted their strength, but they have lost the same, and the more they lose, the more they lose, it is normal for the Rockets to doubt the strength of their team at this time.

Therefore, in order not to let the Rockets players really think that they can't beat the Jazz no matter what, then they need to find a reason for their team's loss and a reason to point it. So it is understandable that Tom Janovic does this. At least it will give the Rockets players a way to lose because of the referee. Regardless of whether this statement is tenable or not, it is finally an air outlet.

Moreover, this approach is never uncommon in the NBA. Many coaches in the league will squirt at the referee when the team encounters almost devastating failures. This is not that they are really dissatisfied with the referee, but that when the team cannot find a way to win, they look for a reason to lose that the whole team can accept.

However, even so, is it necessary for Tomjanovic to do so tremendously? You know, his squirting against Lin Han and the referee can really cause a sensation. If he just wants to find a place for the team to lose and find the referee, he can completely accuse the referee of other aspects of the game, and there is no need to make himself like an idiot.

Since the Rockets head coach pretended to be like an idiot, it is naturally impossible to just find a reason for the team to lose.

So, after watching Tom Janovic's back as he left, Jerry Sloan thought for a while. He really couldn't imagine what this guy was going to do, so he finally gave up.

After all, for him, he won the game, and the team led 2-0. Even if Tomjanovic had any conspiracy, it would always appear later. He just had to wait aside.

"We played very well in this game, especially Lin Han. His defense was very tough in the game. His defensive efficiency was very good. The conflict between him and Drexler? I don't want to say anything more. Any player has times when he is not calm on the court. Lin Han is like this, and Drexler is like this, so this is not a big deal, because neither of them has any problems."

"Are you considering the finals now? This is not possible. Although the 2-0 score is very beneficial to us, don't forget that the Western Conference Finals have four wins in seven games. Moreover, the Rockets are not an ordinary team. They beat the Suns in a more difficult environment in the first round, and in this year's playoffs, for example, the 2-0 score is not insured. Even the 3-0 score is not insured."

After Tom Janovic's unexpected departure, Jerry Sloan, who had been in high spirits for a while, naturally became the protagonist of the press conference. He obviously wanted to compare the conflict between Linhan and Drexler, while Jerry Sloan obviously wanted to downplay the conflict between these two people, so almost every question about the conflict between Linhan and Drexler in this game, Jerry Sloan almost made a very understatement.

It's just obvious that although Jerry Sloan has been constantly downplaying the conflicts in this game, he still underestimated the impact of this game.

The game between the Jazz and the Rockets is called the finals that were staged in advance. Since it was the finals that were staged in advance, even if the ratings were not as high as the real finals. However, because of the playoffs of Lin Han, Malone and Stockton, Olajuwon and Drexler, can the ratings be low?

, which set the highest ratings for the division finals in NBA history, and at the end of this game, the statistics of ABC were still maintaining 12%!

You know, before the Magic and Bird entered the league, the highest ratings in the NBA Finals was Julius Irving, the number one player in the NBA that year, Bill Walton, Bill Walton. Therefore, the attention of this game in the United States is really not bad at all compared to the finals more than ten years ago.

Coupled with the media's boost, how should Lin Han and Drexler be punished in this Jazz and Rockets game almost caused discussions in the entire NBA.

Fans who like Lin Han naturally accused Drexler of malicious foul first. Lin Han is innocent. The referee's penalty for Drexler was too light. Although fans who don't like Lin Han will not ignore Drexler, they basically agreed that both of them should be sent off, not only should they be sent off, but they should also be suspended.

Not only were the fans discussing this matter at this time, but there were cases where fans on both sides criticized each other and almost started fighting on many TV shows, even in the professional field of NBA.

"This is an obvious malicious foul. Both Linhan and Drexler should be sent off. However, for the sake of the game, I agree with Bavita's judgment and sent off both Linhan and Drexler. This is not a decision that anyone dares to make, because they are the two most popular shooting guards in the league now."

This is what Larry Bird, the commentator of ABC, said in an interview. Although Larry Bird is Lin Han's brainless honey, it seems neutral, but in fact it is affirming the penalty.

"This is not the first time for Lin Han. He is a butcher. Since David Stern has always advocated that the NBA team needs a more civilized game environment, now is a good opportunity to reflect David Stern's determination."

This is Barkley's answer after being caught by a reporter. His tone of disdain for Lin Han and his dissatisfaction with the league was almost obvious. The league was punished for the All-Star Western Conference because the group of bigwigs refused to play. If they took action this time, it would be really unreasonable. And for the Suns, whether it is Lin Han's Jazz or the Rockets who eliminated them, it would be best if two teams were biting their dogs and were the best to watch the fun next to him.

Of course. This time, most professionals prefer to choose between Lin Han and Drexler's penalty. However, what is surprising is that Bill Lan Bill, the former NBA first butcher of the Pistons, who just retired this season, has a grudge against the Jazz, actually stood up to support Lin Han.

"I don't think there is anything wrong with Lin Han's behavior. You can ask Kal Malone, what did we do when he fouled on Isaiah. Faced with such a provocation, you need to go up and do it head-on. I watched this game. I admire Lin Han's behavior very much. Drexler is a sissy. He was timid in the end, so the Rockets lost in this game."

"Can fouls of this level be considered fouls? Is it necessary to argue like this? Did Drexler break his hand or his leg?"

What is even more surprising is that Rodman, a Spurs player who is also on vacation in Casino, had a completely different answer from Barkley when facing this question. It really made people not expect that this Spurs player who has a grudge against Lin Han and who has been "ruthless" with Lin Han more than once in the game will actually support Lin Han.

Of course, for most people, if neither side has any objection to this penalty, even if they are aggressive, it will be useless. The league can pretend not to see it and ignore it. But what is speechless is that Tomjanovic's speech at the post-match press conference, which can be said to be "shameless".

In this case, although Tom Janovic's remarks are very despised, the Rockets are not satisfied with the penalty in the game, and the league cannot be regarded as non-existent. Since it cannot be regarded as non-existent, David Stern, who has been calling for civilized NBA, and the league naturally have to make a move.

Soon, this posture came out.

Drexler was fined 35,000 US dollars and was suspended for one game due to inappropriate actions during the game.

Lin Han was fined 25,000 US dollars and was suspended for one official game.

As for Rockets head coach Tom Janovic, who was slandered for referees and slandering the league's reputation, the Rockets head coach was not suspended. However, he was fined $100,000.

When this penalty was made, the already noisy league became even more noisy. Although the league made a penalty on Lin Han, the popular romance, and it seemed not light, it seemed that it was really determined to purify the NBA arena, but everyone could see that the league's penalty on Lin Han was a heavy pick-up and let go, and even the vocabulary of the judgment was understatement. What is an excessive behavior? Improper behavior? It is too vague. People who have not watched the game did not know what Lin Han did and were punished. Judging from the results of the penalty, they are indeed suspected of protecting Lin Han.

However, the league has already punished all the players of this season, which is better than Jordan and Reggie Miller's conflict. It was obviously Jordan's wrong, but the league punished Reggie Miller hard, which also reflects the league's determination to purify the field.

What really caused controversy was not that Lin Han's penalty was lighter or that Drexler's penalty was heavy. There was no problem with the punishments of these two people. The key was Tom Janovic's $100,000.

In the current NBA, generally speaking, the referees are basically accused of more than 5,000 or less. This time, it is serious. Generally speaking, 25,000 is the matter, but no one can think of the league as dark as it is, and it is 100,000 at the beginning, and it is not just accusing the referee. It seems that most of the penalty in this is a punishment for Tomjanovic's "nonsense".

Of course, for many people, especially Lin Han fans, Tom Janovic deserves to be punished nonsense, no matter what purpose he is for, it is his worthy.

However, many people still think it has passed. After all, the annual salary of the top NBA coach is only 1 million US dollars. I went there one-tenth of the Rockets head coach's salary. If calculated after tax, one-fifth of the salary is lost. It is really miserable, and with the poor wealth of the Rockets boss, the team is not likely to give Tang Shuai a penalty.

Although Tom Janovic was revenged by the very unhappy David Stern, as if he was warning him not to talk nonsense in the future, for some people, even so, he was still very dissatisfied.

For example, Lin Han!

On June 1, 1994, when Lin Han and the team came to Houston, he was very dissatisfied with the league's punishment for the conflict in the hotel. He was not satisfied with his punishment. In Lin Han's heart, David Stern has always been a good person and takes good care of him. Although he punished him this time, he admitted it. After all, he hit someone.

But Lin Han was really angry with the Rockets head coach Tom Janovic, especially when he saw his nonsense at the post-match press conference, Lin Han was even more angry.

"This guy should have been fined so much that he lost all his money. 100,000 US dollars is considered a cheap price!"

After Lin Han threw the newspaper in his hand to the ground, he said angrily.

Seeing Lin Han like this, Kal Malone on the side smiled and even narrowed his eyes.

"Okay, Lin, don't be angry. Isn't it just a ban? In this game, just watch how we show our power."

Lin Han, who had come to his senses a little at this time, was stunned when he looked at Ma Long's expression at this time.

Since entering the playoffs, Malone has never shown such a happy expression. In fact, since entering the playoffs, he has been the focus of other teams. The goal of the Trail Blazers' three inside line is mainly him, not to mention the Warriors' old Nelson. As for facing the Rockets, the most popular one in the first two games is naturally Lin Han. Lin Han has 5x5 god-level data in the first game 30+20, and even now, many media and fans are still talking about it.

And his team boss, the MVP in the regular season seems to have been forgotten. In this case, although every time he interviewed, Malone always said that as long as the team wins, he doesn't care. But with Malone's personality, can he do it? If it doesn't matter, then his MVP speech will not be impatient to come out and build momentum for himself before the second round of the playoffs begins.

There is no doubt that this year's playoffs are not just for the championship, but also targeting the honor of MVP in the finals, and he will complete the Grand Slam this season!

And now, Lin Han's suspension has indeed given him a chance!

Although Malone wants a Grand Slam, he is not a fool. Without Lin Han, he and Stockton will not be able to defeat the Rockets led by Olajuwon and Drexler. So, when the team defeated the Rockets, he really doesn't care about Lin Han stealing his limelight.

Now, when the team leads 2-0, Drexler is also gone, and the Rockets are restrained by the Jazz's pressing tactics, which makes Malone, who was originally a little cowardly in front of Olajuwon, no longer so cowardly at this time.

At least in his opinion, he was able to lead the team to defeat the Rockets without Lin Han!

And he is ready to reshape his team's position as the leader in the third game against the Rockets, so that those who call the Jazz win the championship and Lin Han is the biggest contributor to see how strong his presence is!

Therefore, for both Lin Han and Drexler, the happiest person will definitely not be the head coaches of both sides or the fans of both sides, but the Jazz's boss, Malone!

Therefore, when the league's penalty came out, Malone almost always had a smile on his face. Although as a teammate, he knew that this was wrong, he still couldn't help but feel excited.

When he soon proved that the team could defeat Olajuwon without Lin Han, he was excited. He had already begun to imagine that after he led the team to win in this game, those players who said that Lin Han was indispensable for the Jazz began to change their words, and also began to imagine whether Lin Han would be completely suppressed by him when Lin Han saw that he could defeat Olajuwon and assisted him with peace of mind. You must know that Lin Han could not win Olajuwon when he led the team!

As a player who desires success, Malone hopes to have a very outstanding teammate. Lin Han is very consistent with his requirements. However, in recent times, especially after the playoffs, Lin Han has been a little too popular, which is a bit over. So he now needs an opportunity to rebuild his team's status, which is not only for the outside but also for the inside.

Although Lin Han has a low IQ, he is not a player who is sold to others for money. Malone is also not a player with an IQ as high as Stockton. This guy sticks out his butt. The whole Jazz team knows what he wants to do.
To be continued...
