Patrick Bowman, chairman of the Americas Regional Committee under the International Basketball Federation, feels that he has been exiled. A year ago, he was the deputy secretary-general of the Fiba Central Bureau, but now he has become the chairman of the Americas Regional Committee. It seems that he has been promoted.
, but in fact, it is far away from the core place. More importantly, the position of chairman of the five major regional committees of Fiba and the Americas Regional Committee is the most difficult to fill. The committee was established to develop basketball in the region and organize continental or regional tournaments.
competitions, supervise the implementation of FIBA's charter and regulations, and report to FIBA the results of international competitions held in the region. However, in the United States, such things are unnecessary because no one goes to watch other basketball games. NBA
The NBA has always looked down upon Fiba. They have their own rules and have no intention of intervening.
"The weather in New York, USA is really not suitable for Europeans to live." Late at night, Patrick Bowman held a glass of red wine and looked at the night view outside the window and complained that it would take at least four years before he could leave this hellish place.
Return to Geneva.
"Lost to an Asian in a power struggle, damn Cheng 1
Just when he was complaining about his failure in the fight for fiba rights with Cheng Wanqi, the phone rang.
Patrick Bowman walked over with red wine and picked up the phone. It was an unfamiliar number. After thinking about it, he answered the call. On the other end of the phone, a voice that sounded angry sounded:
"Hello, is this Mr. Patrick Bowman? I'm sorry to interrupt your rest on a beautiful night. Let me introduce myself. I am Sam Presti, the vice president of the New York Knicks of the NBA."
After hearing this, Patrick Bowman's first reaction was that the club president of the NBA League called him just to see if he could go to other countries to hold activities like summer camps. However, after thinking about it, he didn't think so.
Maybe, this season, no team will think about anything other than the championship, not to mention, this kind of thing is not worth a late-night phone call.
"Hello, I'm Patrick Bowman."
…
The next day, all sports media reported on the massive brawl that took place last night, and it seemed that the sports media sided with the Miami Heat. They called last night's brawl the "Miami Massacre," which, of course, was
Everything does not include the New York media. Although the New York media reporters are also unhappy with Blake Dolan, if they choose to stand in the trenches with other regional magazines at this time, they will probably be dragged out and hanged by New York fans.
The "Florida Express" had extremely harsh words for the incident that happened last night, calling the New York Knicks players a group of complete villains, and also published a picture of Blake Dolan knocking down a fan. The article suggested that the NBA would be better off expelling the Knicks.
In this league, playing with a group of thugs is a nightmare for any professional player.
The one who counterattacked was the "New York Observer", a media that was involved in a bankruptcy scandal some time ago. The media directly pointed out that the referee Salvador was the trigger of this lose-lose incident because his penalty was too biased towards the Miami Heat.
That led to this tragedy. At the same time, the New York Observer article also believed that compared with the Knicks, the players of the Miami Heat were more like thugs, because only six Knicks players participated in the brawl, but
The Heat had nine. "Miami people thought they were hurt, but look at the picture, nine players beat the Knicks players on the court, but were defeated. I suggest that the first thing the Heat have to deal with now is not to solve this problem."
There was a fight, but these players were replaced. Their physical fitness was terrible 1
The New York Times analyzed this unexpected incident from another angle. They invited some NBA players overnight and asked them what they thought of the game. At the same time, these interview scenes were temporarily put on HBO by Babbitt Levine.
The news station broadcasted that these players had the same attitude towards this matter, that is, they were dismissive. The original words of Ansu Sase, the NBA MVP winner last season, were: "This kind of thing happens every day in NBA. It's nothing good."
I don't care, if Stephen Jackson's action was in NBAL, it would only be a foul, and there would be no T at all. Basketball is a sport with frequent physical contact. If even such an action will result in being sent off, why not ask them to put on a suit and stand
