Chapter 811 [The first drop of blood]
In December, after the Clippers played three games, something big happened.
It wasn't that the star was injured, it wasn't a fight in the locker room, and it wasn't that Yang Rui was practising at home and his neck was broken by Scarlett, but the owner Donald Sterling was exposed to a racial discrimination scandal.
Character determines a person's life, and a person like Sterling will sooner or later be unlucky because of his stinky mouth.
In Yang Rui's previous life, at the end of April 2014, the online media "TMZ" exposed a recording of a conversation between Sterling and his girlfriend Stiviano. In the recording, he accused his girlfriend of putting a photo of him with a black friend on his personal website. on, and named by name, "especially don't bring Magic Johnson."Once this racially discriminatory remark was exposed, it caused an uproar and drew unanimous condemnation from all quarters.
Now the scandal has advanced, and TMZ has exposed a recording of Sterling and Stiviano in the summer, without "Magic" Johnson, the situation is much more serious, because he is talking about active stars.
Even the exposed media is the same, it is clear that someone wants to engage Sterling, but they don't know whether Stiviano is being used or the mastermind of this matter, and the tapes flowed out of her hands.
The two quarreled on the phone. The reason was very simple. Stiviano was a Paul fan and hoped that Sterling would let the management keep Paul. She also called for this on Facebook and released Paul to the regular season. Photos from MVP and FMVP.
Yang Rui proposed not to renew Paul's contract, and the two sides had a good time together.But Paul won the FMVP in the finals last season. Sterling felt that it was a pity to let it go in vain, and he couldn't control Yang Rui's thoughts, so he got angry when his girlfriend mentioned it.
After the Clippers won two consecutive championships, Sterling was already crazy and felt that he was the king of Los Angeles.
"Can you stop spreading the word that you like black stars? You know, that disgusts me? Shouldn't we re-sign Curry in the summer and let him be the core of the team? He and Griffin also won MVPs, They are much whiter than Paul!" Sterling said angrily: "Don't mention Paul on your social networking site, the Clippers are not without him!"
As soon as the recording was exposed, it immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the entire league.
Originally, Paul left the Clippers happily and said good things about the Clippers to the outside world, but now Sterling has messed up.Curry and Griffin were equally angry because they were both black despite their white appearance.
According to medical research, the genes of black people are the strongest of all races, and when combined with any other race, they are descendants of black people, regardless of skin color and hair.According to this regulation in the United States, there is a first drop of blood principle, as long as 1% of the black blood in the family is black.Black and white children are also black.
This rule is clearly racist!It's as if white people see themselves as pure water, and black people as ink. If you dye it, it's not clear water, and it's useless to dilute it, not even a person like Griffin who smiles is "silly white sweet".
Dale Curry is of typical black ancestry, and his wife Songya Curry is African-American.Therefore, Stephen is a pure black man, and you can tell by looking at his hair that it is a hairball when it grows.
Griffin's father is black and his mother is white.His curly hair, physique, and rough voice were all black, and his skin was his mother's white.
Therefore, Sterling offended Paul who had left and the two nuclear stars in the team with a few words.When the players discussed in the locker room, they were very angry because except for Nash, they were all black.
The most angry is Rudy Gay. He now wants to stab Sterling to death because it was exposed on the Internet that Sterling is not only racist, but also discriminates against GAY.
In the United States, racial discrimination is a "high-voltage line". If a well-known person has words or deeds involving racial discrimination, they will inevitably be criticized by all parties.
The so-called "freedom of speech" is not absolute freedom, you can express your views, but the premise is not to cause harm to others.Although Sterling's remarks are not illegal, the Ye Liangchens in the United States have a hundred ways to keep him from getting along.
Many NBA stars and coaches expressed their dissatisfaction with Sterling.
The owners of other teams didn't speak for Sterling either. The Clippers' ability to make money was enviable, and the owners wanted them to die.Leading Bobcats owner "flying man" Michael Jordan angrily said that Sterling can never be forgiven.
More player agents said that as long as Sterling is the owner, he will no longer send his players to the Clippers.
The first African-American president of the United States described Sterling's remarks as "the fools are showing ignorance."
Even the president was alarmed, and Sterling knew it was going to be a big deal and began to be afraid.He defended himself in a bizarre way, saying he was not a racist because he provided "food, clothes, luxury cars, luxury homes" to black employees.
The tone of his speech made people look down on black people, as if black people couldn't live without him.
In just one day, many people in the basketball world have asked the NBA to expel Sterling from the league, suggesting that the Clippers players stop the game.
In Yang Rui's previous life, of course, the Clippers would not strike in the playoffs. Once they strike, they will be sentenced to lose and directly eliminated from the game. They are irresponsible to themselves and the fans.
It’s only the regular season now, and it’s possible for Clippers players to strike. It doesn’t seem like a big deal to lose a few regular season games. You can also put pressure on the league to let Sterling get out as soon as possible.
Even Tyron Lu, who is an assistant coach, had a similar idea. He asked Yang Rui if he wanted to strike in protest. Of course Yang Rui didn't want to mix with them. In the future, the Clippers would be their own team. He called everyone to the arena. and meeting.
Yang Rui said: "Today we don't train, and we asked everyone to discuss how to deal with it. It is definitely not acceptable to strike the game. Think about it, we are not only playing for ourselves, but also for the fans. Sterling made such remarks, I It's disgusting too, but it's definitely not worth it to protest that he offends the fans who have always supported us."
Everyone calmed down immediately, of course it wasn't worth offending the fans, they just wanted to change the boss.If the fans are dissatisfied, the popularity of the stars will also decline, especially the Clippers stars may be elected MVP of the regular season. If the game is on strike, how can the league give them this award?
Yang Rui continued: "Continue the game, don't have to say too much, everyone will treat everyone as a victim and will support us. We just have to wait for the result. Why should other people's words hinder our great cause of the dynasty? We shouldn't stop."
Griffin asked, "But, is that the end of it?"
"No, but if everyone has an opinion, it will make things worse if they say the wrong thing. My advice is that all players don't do interviews about it and leave it to me. Now we are working on it for Dream hard, Sterling or those who suggested we strike have nothing to do with the dynasty dream."
Taking the dynasty as the topic, Yang Rui successfully took the initiative in his own hands.
He wants the players and the coaching staff to be in a position where they don't have any opinions.What he has to do is to neither offend the players nor offend Sterling, let Sterling toss himself, and the result will definitely develop in the direction he expects.
He is so confident in Sterling's ability to kill, anyway, it is very clear in the contract that he has the right of first refusal to buy the Clippers shares.Watching Sterling and the league torn apart for a while, as long as the team is forced to sell, the Clippers are his.
