The Nuggets beat the Timberwolves by 45 points! Malone bombarded NBA match-fixing, and Edwards blew up Murray
On May 17, Beijing time, in the semifinals of the NBA playoffs, there was a loud bang on the court, the Nuggets were bombarded by the Timberwolves, and lost miserably with a huge score difference of 45 points, which caught everyone off guard, as soon as the game started, the Timberwolves played a 20:0 offensive, this wave of attacks was like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, and the Nuggets could only watch the score gap widen. This game was a crushing of the scores, but also a complete mental crush.
But the development of things is always inscrutable, as soon as the game is over, the head coach of the Nuggets shouted that the NBA manipulates the game, bluntly saying that this is naked match-fixing, this is really "the authorities are fans, the bystanders are clear", from his point of view, this is not 5 to 8!
Winning or losing is a common thing in soldiers, but if even the fairness of the game becomes a mystery, then we will not carry this pot! The coach's remarks are tantamount to directly blaming the NBA's referees and management, implying that there is a "shady scene" in this game. Thinking about it, he is also angry from the heart, and evil is born in the guts, so he will openly express his dissatisfaction like this.
Let's talk about Murray, who was "unworthy of the name" today, locked up by Edwards, and only scored 10 points in the whole game. A main player is suppressed by the opponent to such an extent, a typical "cat and mouse"? Edwards, like a bohemian wild horse, ran wild on the field, slashed 27 points, played vigorously, and the plus/minus value was as high as 43, who looked at it was red!
And our "traffic niche" Edwards, today's performance can be said to have beaten Murray to the north. If the basketball court is a big stage, then he is definitely the most dazzling protagonist today. 27 points in the account, this score is placed there, what is not called explosive performance? This young guy seems to be telling everyone that I am the protagonist of this play, and everyone else is a green leaf. And Murray, who is simply a perfect "foil" today, can only be eclipsed under the aura of Edwards.
And when the matter fermented on the Internet, all kinds of speculation and doubts came like a web of non-woven fabric. Some people say that the referees really helped the Timberwolves? The referee's performance in this game was really confusing, and for a while, all kinds of conspiracy theories were flying all over the sky, along with the old accounts of "the referee blowing the penalty was unfair".
In the program, the famous commentator Su Qun also expressed his opinion on the game in a rare way, hinting that there may be match-fixing. As a veteran of basketball commentary, Su Qun's every word has a lot of weight, and this hint undoubtedly makes the Nuggets' accusations more "grounded".
And Jokic, as the leader of the team, also expressed his dissatisfaction in an interview with the media. He mentioned that the refereeing scale of this game was indeed different from the previous one, which made it difficult for the players to adapt. Although his words did not directly blame the referee, they indirectly expressed doubts about the impartiality of the referee.
Many people believe that the NBA league manipulates the results of the game in order to make the matchup see-off to the tiebreaker, in order to attract attention and increase ratings. This season's glittering big-name teams have left the playoff stage early, leaving only the league and the hot media chasing the hot spots. In this context, the NBA must also be desperate and have to use this method to maintain the enthusiasm of the audience. But this kind of behavior is undoubtedly playing with fire, and if this is the case, won't the credibility of the NBA be compromised? It's no wonder that some fans shouted, "I've watched the game for half my life, and I feel so disappointed for the first time!" ”
Angry fans have begun to denounce the NBA's actions on major social platforms, accusing them of blatantly violating the fairness of sports. The basketball court is supposed to be a place where strength and sweat speak, but now it can be reduced to a chessboard of calculation and layout. Many loyal fans lamented: "Basketball is our faith, but now, this belief is being eroded by some people's selfish interests." "Justice and fairness should be the soul of sports, once these two things are lost, those slam dunks that jump high and flutter in the air can still make people's blood boil? All of this has seriously damaged the image of the entire NBA.
In the world of sports, questioning impartiality is fatal, especially for a top-tier professional league like the NBA. If the suspicion of match-fixing comes true, many basketball critics and professionals are now calling for a thorough investigation by the league to set the record straight and rebuild trust. In the face of this situation, the NBA officials do not seem to have responded much, and in the midst of this controversy, what will be the future of the NBA? One can only hope that one day the truth will be revealed.
