When facing such a powerful team, Scott naturally dared not underestimate the enemy.

That is, before the team went to Cleveland, Cousins ​​was in the locker room and apologized for the players for their impulse to play.

When Cousins ​​apologized, Rondo also stood up to apologize to Cousins.

It was like overthrowing the domino, and the originally tense atmosphere quickly became harmonious.

Cousins ​​and Rondo made up their past grudges, and Kobe couldn't help but turn to look at Tang Hao. In his heart, he actually felt a little admiration for Tang Hao.

Just after the training of this day, Cousins's agent issued a statement to the media. The main content of the statement was that Cousins' team made a decision. In future games, every time he was sentenced to a technical foul, he would donate $200,000 like the Red Cross, with no upper limit.

As soon as this statement was issued, the sports media and a group of reporters were in a panic.

In the NBA, in order to support charity, players will set some rules for themselves to a greater or lesser extent. For example, Stephen Curry once said that every three-pointer he scored, he would donate $2,000. Going forward, free throw expert Jose Calderon once said that every time he scored a free throw, he would donate $200.

Choosing the best aspects to set rules is actually to show that they really want to support charity.

Cousins ​​used his best technical foul to do charity, which seems to be fine.

But $200,000!

This amount shocked everyone. This amount was really big and a bit too much. It is no exaggeration to say that this is definitely the largest amount in this area in NBA history.

Some media and reporters expressed their support for this approach, believing that Cousins ​​was really cruel to make changes in this regard, but more people think that this approach is purely

It's just to make gimmicks to attract attention.

"De Marcus can only attract attention in this way. Maybe his previous bad temper was to make people pay attention to him~" Sacramento media even joked like this.

There are mixed reviews from the outside world, but everyone knows that this will be a big challenge for Cousins ​​himself.

Amid the huge discussion, the Lakers boarded the plane to Cleveland.

Cleveland is located on the south shore of Lake Erie and is the second largest city in Ohio, USA. But in fact, it is a small city with a population of only 300,000. The small city brings a small football market. For most of the time, the sports industry here is in a long-term downturn.

However, the appearance of "Basketball Emperor" LeBron James changed all this. Cleveland chose James in 2003. Since then, the team has become a strong team in the league. This time, James returned from the King of Miami to bring the first championship trophy to the city.

With such a goal, the team naturally strives to do its best in the regular season.

Facing the Lakers, winning the game is obviously their only goal.

"I returned to Cleveland and won every victory for the city." James did not hide his determination at all.

For the Lakers, what is more deeply rooted in this game is that Kobe went to Cleveland with the team this time. After more than a month of quit, he chose to return in such a focus battle.
