How many top superstars have become ordinary players or even unable to play because of serious injuries.

Take Greg Oden for example, this guy was once called the Great Emperor.

He averaged 23.2 points, 11.3 rebounds and 3.5 blocks per game in the NCAA league, which is simply a bug-like existence.

Then, he was selected first overall in the 2007 draft, beating out Durant.

As a result, the poor guy only played about 100 games in the NBA and was cut at the age of 26.

In stark contrast to him is Karl Malone.

Even though he was injured in the 03-04 season, it was mainly because he was old.

In Malone's 19-year career, he played more than 80 games in 17 seasons.

In other words, he was rarely seriously injured.

Thanks to his rare injuries and high attendance rate, Ma Long ranks third in history in total points.

"It seems that attribute points are still in urgent need!"

"It's time to challenge Kobe Bryant again!"

Lin Hao was extremely anxious.

Although he can redeem the third-level skills soon, he still needs to stock up some physical strength and injury potions for use in critical moments.

……

NBA headquarters.

At this time, Stern was convening a management meeting overnight.

"I think the 'anti-isolation singles rule' should be reintroduced!"

Xiao Hua said in a deep voice.

"what?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the conference room, and everyone showed an expression of disbelief.

Stern, in particular, looked at him as if he were an alien.

The so-called anti-isolation singles rule refers to:

Once the offensive team gathers three or more players at the top of the free throw circle or on the side without the ball, a violation will be called and the ball will be returned to the other team.

This rule was introduced as early as 1988, and its main purpose was to limit players with super single-player abilities like Jordan.

When Jordan played one-on-one, other players would overspace the floor, making it difficult for the defense to effectively help.

After the rule was implemented, Jordan suffered a considerable impact, with his average points per game dropping from 37.1 to 35.

Later, in 1994, when Jordan retired for the first time, the rule was lifted.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Xiao Hua's suggestion was clearly aimed at Lin Hao.

But wasn't Xiao Hua the one who admired and cared for Lin Hao the most? Why did he seem like a different person today?

"I agree with Adam Silver's suggestion!"

NBA President of Operations Byron Spruell said.

"Lin Hao is good in singles, but his stamina is also good."

"As Magic Johnson said, he humiliated the league by scoring 85 points."

"In the last game, Sanders used the inhumane 'Lin Hao Rule,' but he still scored 31 points."

"If the Knicks trade for one or two more helpers, what suspense will there be in future games?"

he went on.

His words made everyone fall into deep thought.

Yes, isn’t the greatest charm of sports like basketball and football the suspense of the unknown?

If the result can be guessed before the game even starts, how can the audience still be interested in watching it?

"Byron is quite right, but I would like to add one more thing!"

"We also have to consider ratings and ticket sales."

Xiao Hua took over his words.

"We must be clear that Lin Hao is a Chinese after all."

"What will happen if we allow a Chinese person to dominate the NBA?"

He looked around and spoke confidently.

What Xiao Hua said hits the nail on the head.

In fact, American people do not have the same patriotism as Chinese people.

However, they also have their own national pride.

If a Chinese player pressed the American players to the ground in every game...

What will the audience think? Will they still buy tickets to watch the game?

"I agree with what Adam said!"

Stern looked at Silver approvingly.

This guy is becoming more mature now.

Perhaps, in a few years, I will be able to step down and let others take over!

"I agree too!"

"I agree too!"
