Versatile Point Forward

Chapter 395 The Return of the King

Seeing that the Blazers were scored by the opponent twice in a row, and the point difference was stretched to 11 points, McMillan quickly called a timeout.

Now he can't help but call a timeout, the time is only 1 minute and 13 seconds, and there are only a few offensive rounds, but the drumming noise in the American Airlines Arena is getting louder and louder. It seems that they have seen the dawn of victory. The fans All excited, such a huge noise also put a lot of pressure on the Blazers players.

The five people on the field all looked dejected, and Batum's face was flushed red. Although he knew that there was a gap between himself and Ye Feng, this result was too hurtful.After Ye Feng was injured and left the field, the two sides still played inextricably. With Ye Feng's layup before the injury, he still led by 2 points. Why did he become 11 points in the same position within a few minutes?The coach called several timeouts to no avail.

As an up-and-coming star of the French men's basketball team, Batum has always considered himself a good player, and sometimes he is eager to play a dozen starting positions.But these few minutes of this game told him that he was still a little young, even compared to Ye Feng in the third grade, he was far inferior.Whether it's offense or defense, there is a big gap between him and Ye Feng in every aspect, and this gap seems to be difficult to close in a short time.

So after McMillan called a timeout, only he looked more ashamed among the five people.But before he sat back in his seat, a big hand patted his shoulder, followed by another sentence that sounded very joking: "What? During the few minutes I was away, you were taken by others Beaten like a sissy?"

This voice is very familiar, so familiar that it cannot be more familiar, but the owner of this voice is impossible to appear in this place at this time no matter what!Batum turned his head subconsciously, and sure enough, he met a sharp-edged Asian face, who else could it be if it wasn't Ye Feng?
Seeing the familiar Blazers away jersey No. 3, Batum couldn't help cheering, and his teammates turned their heads one after another, and saw Ye Feng standing behind Batum with a teasing face, everyone stared wide Eyes, what's going on?
Of course McMillan saw it too. He immediately turned his attention to the team doctor behind Ye Feng, but the team doctor looked up at the sky expressionlessly, signaling that he had nothing to do with this brat.McMillan shook his head helplessly, and asked Ye Feng: "Didn't I tell you to do a simple treatment in the locker room and then go to the hospital for an examination? Why did you come back again? Do you really think your career is worthless? Know that what you do can have a big impact on your future!"

Ye Feng listened carefully to McMillan's reprimand, but felt quite emotional in his heart, why didn't he know that the head coach was doing this for his own benefit?But there are some things that you would rather risk everything to do, such as leading the team to victory in the Finals.And he is not a fool. He persuaded the team doctor to let him return to the field after the pain was not obvious after the ice application. If he still looks like his feet cannot touch the ground, no matter how confident he is, he dare not come back and ask to play casually.

Faced with Ye Feng's pleadings, McMillan still couldn't bear it, but after consulting the team doctor, he still decided to put Ye Feng back on the court to fight with his back.He also knows that despite the fact that the Blazers are leading 3-1 now, if they lose this game, the whole series will be in trouble.

Because Ye Feng was going to play, and he had to take into account his ankle injury, McMillan repeatedly emphasized that other players must run, don't be stingy with physical strength, anyway, there is only one minute before the end of the game, so what can be saved if you save money? ?The most important thing right now is to create space for Ye Feng. Although McMillan doesn't believe that Ye Feng can continue to hold the ball and break through with Ye Feng's current situation, he still hasn't been affected when he catches and shoots.

The sharp-eyed commentators had already seen the whole process of Ye Feng entering the field from the player tunnel, and they all exclaimed, as if they had seen something extraordinary.Under the deliberate reminder of the commentators, the Heat fans also saw the Trail Blazers No. 3 jersey that they loved and hated. Standing up, they all applauded for Ye Feng's return to the arena.

Abby's eye sockets were already wet. Although she was still a little far away from the court, the moment Ye Feng was injured had already been played back on the big screen. How could she not know how her boyfriend was injured?Seeing him coming back again and seeming to continue to play, Abby murmured: "Fool, is the outcome of a game really that important? Is a championship more important than your body and your entire career?" Does it all matter?"

Hornacek, who was sitting next to her, was also surprised, and there was a tinge of relief in the surprise. Of course, what he thought of was not the "God" who prevented the Jazz from reaching the top for two consecutive seasons, but was older than this but more similar of a legend.

Without Willis Reid, the 1970 Finals may have been submerged in the long river of history. The teams that competed for the championship that year were the Knicks and the Lakers.In the first four games of the finals, Reid, as the starting center of the Knicks, scored 4 points, 37 points, 29 points and 38 points respectively, and averaged 23 rebounds per game.However, in the last quarter of Game 15, Reed suffered a serious injury to his right thigh, and Chamberlain led the Lakers to take the opportunity to win Game [-] and tie the score.

At 1970:5 p.m. on May 8, 7, the seventh game was about to start, but the entire Madison Square Garden was shrouded in shadows, because their captain and core Reed was most likely unable to play.However, at 7:34, Reid limped onto the court, and the entire Madison Square Garden suddenly boiled.In order to be able to play, Reid endured unbearable pain for ordinary people. The doctor used a thick needle to perform multiple injections on his injured thigh.

Although he only scored 4 points, his spirit inspired his teammates. In the end, the Knicks successfully won the first championship in team history. He also won three MVPs in the regular season, the All-Star Game and the finals of the season. trophy.Years later, Reid recalled the experience: "I wanted to play. This is the fight for the championship. It's the great moment that you dream of all your life. I don't want to say to myself in the mirror 20 years later. , I really wish I could work hard to play."

Isn't what Ye Feng is doing now very similar to Reed back then?Although it was not the seventh game of the finals, even though he had personally scored 31 points and 9 assists, when he walked out of the player channel, the spirit of the Blazers returned!
