If you want to watch the excitement without worrying about it, this NBA off-court "drama" will definitely satisfy your appetite. Not long ago, the NBA officially announced that because of the more than one consecutive basketball smashed at the audience in the game, coupled with the bad attitude towards reporters after the game, Beverley, a player with a lot of fire, was banned for four games and had to be suspended! It's even better than the script, don't you say?
Let's talk about this game first, the Bucks vs. the Pacers, which was originally a matchup full of gunpowder. As a result, Beverley may have been red-eyed at the last moment of the game, and actually used the ball as a weapon to smash it at the Pacers fans on the sidelines, and more than once! Can you imagine the atmosphere at the scene, is it more tense than the fight scene in the movie?
Not only that, but when a female reporter came forward to interview after the game, hoping to understand Beverley's mental journey, the big brother said: "If you haven't subscribed to my podcast, don't want to ask me questions." This attitude can be said to be quite faceless. How could journalists buy it? Now it's okay, not only the fans glared at him, but even the media was in an uproar.
Such behavior has certainly attracted the attention of NBA officials. After all, it's not just about the game on the court, it's about the image of basketball as a sport. The NBA did not hesitate to give the punishment, and Beverley was suspended for four games, which will be enforced starting next season. Not only did this affect his career, but it also put pressure on his team, the Bucks. After all, every time a main player is missing, the team's combat effectiveness will be affected.
Now let's talk about your reactions. Of course, the fans are talking and laughing, some people think Beverley is a straight man, some think he is too much, and the basketball court is a place for games, not a place to vent personal emotions. The media is even more polite, and all kinds of comments are overwhelming, analyzing the impact of this behavior on the image of basketball from a professional point of view, and some people interpret Beverley's actions from a psychological point of view.
This whole thing, if we were to comment, can be said to be a very typical case of emotional management failure. As a professional player, controlling your emotions and respecting your opponents and spectators is the most basic professional quality. Beverly's behavior clearly crossed the line, and such consequences are inevitable.
In short, this incident is not only a warning to Beverley personally, but also a reminder to all professional athletes: to fight for skill and physical strength on the court, and to abide by the rules and be polite off the court. Hopefully, this ban will make Beverley reflect, and hopefully all athletes can learn from it, after all, on the basketball court, we want to see a good game rather than conflict and discord.
