NBA: The start beat Kobe Bryant in his old age

Chapter 345 That Man Is Coming Back?

Visiting team locker room.

The Lakers team is filled with a depressive atmosphere.

After being pulled back by the Warriors for three consecutive games, Lin Tian didn't know what to say to comfort Howard and the others.

In terms of momentum, the Lakers have lost not a little bit.

Without Lin Tian, ​​they had little hope for the next tiebreaker.

Soon, the general manager of the public relations department walked into the locker room and asked Lin Tian if he wanted to attend the post-match press conference, but Lin Tian shook his head and refused.

He didn't play a game today, so there is no need to attend the post-match press conference, and if he does, he will definitely be asked a lot of questions about injuries.

Oracle Arena Media Room.

"Coach Scott, after the start of the Western Conference Finals, you were beaten by the Warriors from 3:0 to 3:3. Do you think your coaching level is overestimated?"

"Next question."

"Since Lin was injured, the Lakers have collapsed across the board. Do you think there is a problem with your coaching? Or do you rely too much on Lin?"

"We really rely too much on Lin. His injury has an obvious impact on us. As for the coaching issue, I don't want to say more."

"Can you reveal how Lin is recovering? I heard that he is already participating in shooting training. Is this true? Will he come back in the tiebreaker?"

"Sorry, I'm not very clear about Lin's injury. I'll have to ask the team doctor for details after I go back."

Scott was frowning almost throughout the interview. He has been asked countless times about Lin Tian's injury these days.

Every time he said official words that he had nothing to comment on, after all, this kind of thing should never be said indiscriminately.

Soon, it was Wade's turn to be interviewed.

"Dwyane, you made 18 of 6 shots today under Clay's defense. The efficiency is not high. Do you feel that you are restricted?"

Wade adjusted the microphone: "No, I just don't feel that good today, but Clay is indeed a difficult opponent."

"After Lin's absence, you have lost three games in a row. From almost locked in the finals to the current situation, how do you feel?"

"Honestly, it's really unacceptable. Lin's absence is fatal to us! I played terrible games these few games!"

"As the team's main attacker after Lin Tian's absence, you didn't lead the team to victory. Do you feel that you have failed Lin's trust in you?"

"Yes, I am responsible for everything. I don't know how to describe my feelings anymore. This feeling is very uncomfortable." Wade sighed.

"Is Lin's current situation better? Will he come back early in the tiebreaker? Can you give us some information?"

Wade suddenly looked at the reporter angrily: "Didn't you see his ankle injury? He can't recover early! Don't have any illusions. It is impossible for any player to recover after a week of injury with this kind of injury!"

……

Lin Tian watched the team's post-match press conference in the hotel.

Wade's speech made him full of emotion.

He couldn't help but glance at his left foot again.

There are still two days before the start of G7. In these two days, his injury will definitely recover, but it is impossible to recover very well.

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to play in G7 with such an injury!But the current situation makes him have to consider playing in G7!

He opened Penguin Sports, only to find that the Eastern Conference champion had been announced tonight.

The Cavaliers led by James defeated the Celtics led by Thomas Jr. and stood at the top of the Eastern Conference for the third consecutive season.

If Lin Tian didn't delete it, they should have eliminated the Warriors long ago and joined the Cavaliers in the finals.

And now, everything is overshadowed.

Had a sleepless night.

After getting on the special plane to Los Angeles the next day, Lin Tian said to Scott in front of all the players: "Coach, I can play in G7!"

As soon as these words came out, all the players including Wade, Howard, Nick Young stood up and looked at Lin Tian.

Nick Young walked over first, and he said excitedly: "Lin! You are crazy! You can't walk very well and still want to play?"

Howard also looked puzzled: "Now is not the time to joke, you definitely can't participate in basketball!"

Kupchak hurried over, cast his eyes on Lin Tian, ​​and said earnestly: "Lin, I can understand your current mood. I feel the same as you. The team lost and everyone was very sad, but now is not the time for you to be impulsive. Your injury is serious. G7 is definitely not the best time for you to pay. The only way you can help your teammates is to bring strength to everyone on the bench."

Lin Tian shook his head: "I didn't fall asleep all night last night. I know how to really help the team! I am ready to play at any time! Maybe my state is not at my best, but I believe that my role is not just to wave the towel on the bench."

Kupchak was also lost in thought, and he said after a while: "Every one of us hopes that the team can win the championship again! But compared to the present, we want to win in the future. If you take the risk of coming back, the consequences may be unbearable for you, and the team can't afford it, and it's not up to you whether you can come back. It has to be checked by the team doctor. Only after passing their inspection can you play."

Lin Tian spread his hands: "Don't tell me these are useless, I want to fight, no one can stop me!"

"Don't worry. After returning to Los Angeles, I will call the team doctor and assistant team for a meeting. The boss will also show up. Let's discuss your injury first. If the team doctor thinks you can play, no one will stop you." Kupchak said anxiously.

Lin Tian nodded, and he knew it was not a joke.

After the special plane landed in Los Angeles, the players immediately returned to the Staples Center for training.

Lin Tian also started recovery training.

An hour into recovery training, he attended a meeting arranged by Bass Jr.

More than a dozen people, including team doctors and training teams, attended the meeting.

The final suggestion they gave was that Lin Tian was not yet fit to play in any games.

But Lin Tian insisted on playing.

In the end, everyone reached an agreement after discussion, and decided to wait and see for two days, and wait until the day when g7 starts to decide whether Lin Tian will play.

In the evening, the Lakers released the latest injury report on the official media: G7 Lin Tian is suspicious.

Once this injury report was released, it instantly ignited the excitement of the fans. In less than a minute, the following comments have exceeded 1.

"It is doubtful to play? Does this mean that Lin Tian has hope to play in G7?"

"That man is coming back?"
