Zhang Hao watched the uneventful fourth quarter of the game through a live broadcast in the locker room.
Normally, in a game with such a large score gap, garbage time is too long and there's a high chance of conflicts.
Because the side with the advantage would definitely put on their water cooler roster, with a gap of over 30 points, there's no need to play the main players anymore, saving energy is one thing, but more importantly, it protects the players from getting injured by the opponent's rough fouls.
And when the water cooler roster players get on the court, they will definitely try hard to score, regardless of the score difference, possibly causing conflicts as well.
But since the referee made the smart decision to eject Mr. Zhang, no rough fouls occurred from New York Knicks players during the fourth quarter, almost every play resulted in them tossing the ball in the shooting area, whether there was defense or not, as if the ball was a hot potato.
