Beijing time on January 30, the NBA regular season Lakers lost to the Rockets 119-135. During the game, several fouls by Rockets player Dillon caused controversy. Nongmei talked about him in an interview after the game.
Nongmei said: "There will be fouls in the game, which is part of basketball. But you can't blatantly push someone's back because the player can't control his body in the air. I think he should be ejected. And it's very Obviously everyone knows about the conflict between him and James. In my opinion, when he slapped James in the face, he was clearly going to attack James."
In this game, Dillon first pushed Van from behind when Vanderbilt was attacking the frame. Debilt looked at it, and the referee thought this action was just a common foul. The dissatisfied Vanderbilt complained about this and was ejected from the game after taking two T's in a row.
Then Dillon hit James in the face again while fighting for a rebound. James fell to the ground in pain. The referee upgraded the foul to level one maliciousness after review.
And James also refused to talk about Dillon in an interview after the game.
