Chapter 177 Injured
PS: I slipped my hand, and I sent it without writing the chapter name. I don’t have permission to change the VIP chapter. I will change it after I ask the editor for permission. Forgive me!

The atmosphere between the two sides was very good before the game, but after the game started, all the friendship was an illusion. This is a tough battle.

The Heat's strongest attack point is shooting guard Dwyane Wade, and this game is difficult to play.In order to defend Wade, Jackson, who is better defensively, must focus entirely on the defensive end, and all the offensive pressure is given to Li Zhi and O'Neal.

Perhaps due to the exhaustion of the journey, O'Neal's state is not good this time, and he failed to put the ball into the basket several times in singles.

The Heat's center is Udonis Haslem. Haslem is not tall enough as an insider, but he defends fiercely and is very active in rebounding. He is not afraid to confront O'Neal's basket at all.Coupled with O'Neal's bad touch, this led to the Warriors' inside offense stagnating.

In this way, only Li Zhi in the starting lineup can rely on breakthroughs to continue the life of the Warriors.

The Heat's Wade performed even stronger, holding the ball into the paint one after another, scoring points in the face of O'Neal and Barnes, and Barnes fouled twice in the first quarter.

Nelson can only replace Milicic, but the situation has not improved. The new No. [-] Beasley has excellent physical fitness and will use his physical advantage to attack Milicic. Therefore, the Warriors' power forward position is also at a disadvantage in confrontation.

Wade performed bravely, and faced Stephen Jackson's entanglement, he became stronger and stronger. He scored 16 points in a single quarter in the second quarter. The Warriors trailed by 20 points at 33:13 in the first quarter.

Sean Marion also defended Li Zhi well, and the Heat double-teamed him from time to time. Li Zhi only scored 7 points in the first quarter.

Li Zhi was a little depressed, this Wade was too perverted, Stephen Jackson couldn't guard him at all.

After winning the championship in 06, Wade established his superstar status, and then, like James, became a popular star in the league.Wade is very good at using the referee's penalty scale to win opportunities for himself. In the last season when he was recovering from his injury, Wade realized "Wade's fall".

In this game, Wade repeatedly broke through the inside to seek physical confrontation. When O'Neal and Barnes touched Wade in the first half of the quarter, this guy fell back wittyly.

This means that Wade is in good health. If he were replaced by someone with average physical fitness, he would have a heart attack within a few strokes.

After the Warriors replaced the substitutes in the second quarter, the situation did not improve.The Heat kept Sean Marion on the field in the second quarter, and the years in the Suns created Marion's excellent chaotic ability, so in the second quarter of the Warriors' bombardment rhythm, Marion was like a fish in water.

There is also Daquan Cook on the Heat's bench. This is a rookie in the same year as Li Zhi. He played for the University of Oklahoma in college. He was the right-hand man of Oden and Michael Conley at that time, and he has good physical fitness.

In addition, like Marion, he has a three-pointer with a shooting rate of more than 40%, helping the Heat quickly grab points in a short period of time.

The Heat's second team didn't suffer at all when fighting against the Warriors' bench.

In order to win the game, Nelson only allowed Li Zhi to rest for 5 minutes before sending Li Zhi on the court. He wanted Li Zhi to chase the score after Wade did not play.But just 2 minutes after Li Zhi played, an unfortunate thing happened...

Beasley, who had just entered the field, dribbled the ball to the inside and broke through. Li Zhi hurried to help defend, but Beasley didn't look at anyone. After jumping up, he stepped on Li Zhi's ankle. Li Zhi's first thought was that it was over...

This is a key part, the replacement that athletes are most worried about. The great Kobe Bryant was reimbursed for the season because of ankle problems.

With the support of his teammates, Li Zhi went back to the locker room step by step, and received a call from Avril Lavigne. Avril Lavigne, who had never watched the game, called in time. She panicked on the phone and asked Li Zhi crying if he was seriously injured.

Li Zhi was having the team doctor examine him, grinning and said, "It's all right, it's just a little painful, and he hasn't become a cripple. It's definitely okay to do something shameful."

Avril suddenly said shyly: "In this case, are you still in the mood to joke?"

Li Zhi smiled and said: "Otherwise, don't worry, I think I will recover soon." Li Zhi still has confidence in the Super Saiyan's physique, even if he is injured, he can recover.

Avril said angrily: "Shut your crow's mouth and listen to what the team doctor has to say."

"Well, okay, then I'll hang up first."

After hanging up the phone, Li Zhi saw the team doctor Merkel looking at him with an ugly face, and couldn't help having a bad premonition in his heart.

"Li, the situation is not as good as expected."

……

Because of an accident, Li Zhi did not play this game again. He only scored 7 points and 2 assists, which made the Warriors lack a strong offensive point again.

The Warriors lost the game 99 to 109.Li Zhi was injured, the Warriors players were not in the mood to play, and O'Neal didn't feel good, the Warriors were like a loose sand, constantly being scored by the Heat.

The Warriors' losing streak ended in Miami like this. Li Zhi felt that this was too bad luck. If I met this kid, Beasley, I would definitely blow him up.

After a comprehensive examination by the Warriors' team doctor, Li Zhi's ankle injury was not serious, it was just a sprained ankle, but the condition was serious. His muscles were swollen, and the capillary walls were ruptured. When he touched the ground, he would feel a sharp pain. It would take at least 50 days to repair.

As soon as the result came out, Nelson thanked God that this was the best result. Although Li Zhi's absence would definitely affect the Warriors' record, it was much better than a fracture, not to mention a more serious Achilles tendon rupture that would affect an athlete's career.

Soon, Li Zhi's injury was officially announced by the Warriors. This announcement really shocked many fans. Many people only saw Li Zhi's sluggish appearance on the court, but did not know Li Zhi's actual situation. They thought it might seriously affect Li Zhi's career development.

The domestic media blasted the pot. Li Zhi is the hope of Chinese basketball. Now Li Zhi is seriously injured.

The head coach of the Warriors, Nelson, was also questioned. Many experts began to accuse Nelson of "wasting" players in his tactics. Li Zhi, Crawford, and Barnes played an average of 40 minutes per game, which increased the probability of players being injured on the court.

An old man such as O'Neal is 36 years old and ranks fourth in the Warriors' playing time with 35 minutes.

Li Zhi had to stand up and clarify to the coach at this time, saying that it was just an accident and not caused by fatigue.

O'Neill also explained that how much time to play is up to him. The coach just put himself at the right moment. He is in good shape this season and hopes to play more games.

"New York Sports" published an article that believed that Li Zhi's injury had a huge impact on the Warriors. Without the outside core, the Warriors' firepower on the outside will be reduced by a notch. What is even more terrifying is the defense. Li Zhi's current UPRE ranks third in the league.

If the Warriors were an Eastern Conference team, they might still be able to compete for the top four in the regular season without an outside core. However, in the West where there are more monks and less meat, the Warriors are very likely to experience a terrible record decline. What is even more frightening is that the Warriors will lose consecutively and lose the chance to compete for the playoffs. These situations are very likely to happen.

Of course, because of Li Zhi's absence, other players in the Warriors will get more opportunities, such as Lowry, Morrow, and Nick Young. They will have more playing time, and the Warriors can use this time difference to train players.
