Chapter 260

"All of you, if you think it's necessary to punish the pioneers severely, please show your hands!"

About four or five teams raised their hands.

Seeing the result of the vote, stern almost didn't slow down

There's no need to vote anymore. Most of the bosses are on the side of the pioneers. I don't think it's necessary to punish Richard severely.

"I feel that there is no need to vote next. Then our management committee will make a preliminary punishment decision before 8 o'clock tonight, and then inform each team. If there is no problem, tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, the Management Committee of the League will announce the punishment result!" Said stern.

"Mr. stern, I have a suggestion that you might as well listen to..." Paul Allen is talking again.

"Think about the penalties in last season's Western Conference semi-final. I don't want Richard to be banned more than five times!"

"First, Richard didn't do it!"

"Second, although it has something to do with Richard, you can't find any direct evidence to prove that Richard caused it!"

"Third, although the benefits of the trailblazers are nothing to me, I am also a fan. I don't want to see my favorite players treated unfairly!"

"Fourth, now the situation outside, you must also know that we do not want to see the NBA become a racist League, which will make us very passive!"

"You are the one we invited to help us generate revenue. Please remember your role at all times!"

Paul Allen stared at stern with deep eyes, which made stern unable to step down

The fool can also hear the threat in Paul Allen's words. Stern is the one we invited to help us work and create benefits, not our superiors!

Maybe some small owners of the alliance will succumb to Stern's obscenity, while giants like Paul Allen will not really take stern seriously.

As long as he wants, he can contact more than half of the bosses in the League to oust stern!

But Paul Allen certainly won't do it. Under Stern's administration, NBA has developed well and created benefits for them. Such talents can be used as long as they are not out of control.

……

Stern is already sweating behind him. He is very glad that he did not show too much bias in this meeting. Otherwise, Paul Allen may change today's meeting to the stern conference.

After that, Paul Allen got up and left, and asked olsey to continue the meeting instead of himself. He had other things to deal with.

Stern was relieved to see Paul Allen leave.

He now hates Richard to the bone. Without Richard, he may not have the same situation that made him face dead!

"Well, let's discuss the matter of the players' Union. They want to raise the salary cap and raise the players' salary. I think this is a scene that you all don't want to see..."

“……”

……

"David, how many suspensions are you going to give them?" The meeting was not finished until four o'clock in the afternoon.

Larry Miller asked directly from Stern's office.

"Larry, how many games do you think Malone will be banned?" Stern asked with a wry smile.

"I don't know. Of course, the less, the better..."

"Yes, less is better, but less Malone is, less ban Ben Wallace has!"

……

At eight o'clock that night, the management of each team received the punishment decision from the NBA Management Committee.

Sir carmelon's six game ban!

On the Trail Blazers side, Kobe Bryant suspended 9 games, Big Ben suspended 8 games, as for Richard

Ban two games!

Of course, in addition to these suspension penalties, there are also fines.

When Richard learned about the punishment decision from olsey, he was also stupid.

He didn't expect the punishment to be so light!

For players, suspension is a big loss of revenue, and fine? That's almost negligible.

In 84-85, the maximum fine of the alliance was raised from $100 to $500. Ten years later, 94-95, the alliance raised the maximum fine to $20000.

The trailblazers were fined a total of 60000 US dollars. It's really drizzling

As for the income lost in the suspension, the combined loss of the three is estimated to be about the same as that of Malone alone

……

For this punishment result, Richard naturally knows that Paul Allen has played a great role in it.

This also made Richard feel lucky. Fortunately, he chose the pioneer at the beginning. If he chose the Bucks, he thought it might be over this time

……

At eight o'clock the next morning, the League held a press conference and announced the punishment decision!Although the pioneers fans are still dissatisfied, the result is much better than they expected, at least not to hurt the pioneers.

In particular, Richard has only two suspensions, which is more exciting for the pioneer fans.

It's only two suspensions. Three or five days have passed. There's no need to worry!

Their trailblazers still have a great future, although Big Ben and Kobe have been banned many times

But at present, the lineup of the Blazers is quite deep. Even if the two are banned, the strength of the Blazers will not be reduced to a fish belly!

On the Jazz side, it's not so lucky!

Stockton's return time is uncertain, Malone has been banned, and their next schedule will be very difficult!

……

All the trailblazers were very excited when they heard the good news.

"Kobe, it's more than half a month since the suspension. Go home and have a good rest. When you come back, I will make you take more responsibility!" Richard said to Bryant with a smile at the team meeting.

"Coach, are you going to increase my shots again?" Bryant asked excitedly

Richard waved: "no, after this, you are not a child in my eyes. You are a man!"

"Men should take their own responsibility. In the future, I will not limit your hand again!"

Hearing this, Kobe was so excited that he couldn't control himself. Finally, he got rid of the shackles and turned over to be a serf to sing

But with the excitement, it's a huge sense of pressure!

……

"Ben, in this period of time, you should take good care of your injuries. You don't have to worry about your achievements. Since the Jazz side is finished, then it's time for our pioneers to taste the taste of the top of the western performance list!"

Richard said to the general with a smile.

The Jazz's achievements will be greatly affected, and there is no gap between the exploiters' achievements and the supersonic's. as long as the exploiters make steady progress, it's not a big problem to hit the first place in the West!
