Angry! Irving: Nigger! Get out!
Embiid's knee suffered a serious injury. This time, it's completely ruined.
In yesterday's game between the Mavericks and the Thunder, facing the top team in the West with a four-game winning streak, the Mavericks were under great pressure. Fortunately, in this game, Alexander of the Thunder was absent, and the Mavericks eventually defeated the Thunder 106-98, ending their winning streak.
It should have been just another normal game, but it became a hot topic because both sides almost got into a conflict.
Here's what happened.
In the third quarter of the game, there was an unsightly moment when PJ Washington pulled down Jalen Williams during a defensive play, causing him to fall to the ground from mid-air, resulting in a level one malicious foul! At that time, players from both sides surrounded them, talking incessantly.
There was a dramatic moment when a journalist captured the scene, and PJ Washington's expression was intriguing, as if he was ready to fight at any moment!
And today, through the interpretation of a lip-reading expert, we have become clear about the dialogue between the two sides.
At that time, Caruso pushed PJ Washington away, and Irving came forward to argue, but was pushed away by Joe. Then, Irving said to Caruso: Brother, don't do unnecessary shit, what are you doing? Brother, don't do this!
Faced with Joe pushing him away, Irving got angry and said directly: Don't push me! Nigger, get out! You're not that tough! Joe didn't let Irving off either, retorting: Damn, go back!
Later, Caruso explained his behavior to Irving, saying that he wanted to stand up for his brother. For this, Irving responded: Why are you all pushing us? Why is everyone pushing us? Why are you pushing us? Stop pushing us, damn it. Let's stop, brother.
Obviously, what made Irving angry was being pushed around by the opponent in the chaos. He wasn't trying to get involved in the fight, but just went up to check the situation and was inexplicably pushed away. While not understanding, he was indeed quite angry!
Those who know Irving well understand that he rarely gets angry. Sometimes, when he sees an opponent fall beside him, he will take the initiative to help them up. At least in terms of character, there's nothing wrong with Irving.
After the game, Irving also praised the Thunder players, saying: This is personal enmity. I think this is the beginning of healthy competition. They are excellent, they have many young people. We will often encounter them in the next few years.
Although Irving's character is beyond reproach, sometimes some of his remarks are quite surprising. Here, talking about his move from the Nets to the Mavericks, Irving jokingly said: That was the best deal in this industry. We won that deal, we won that deal! I used to be a 'defective product'.
For these words, many people don't agree, making it seem like the Nets did something wrong to Irving. What do you think about this?
