Chapter 89 Grant Hill Ankle Restructuring

The two sides entered a timeout, and the big screen was still replaying the classic duel just now.

McGrady's turn is smart and elegant, with a sense of rhythm and explosive power. After turning back and turning over Kobe, the forward turn and backward jumper have a huge range, coupled with the iconic chic scissor legs, it is picturesque.With a tall stature, solid skills, and rich and varied offensive methods, when McGrady made a fake turn and jump shot, Kobe couldn't help but feel awkward, because if he wanted to prevent McGrady's fadeaway jumper, he had to choose the position of the block in advance.

But Kobe's response was more simple and rude. After lowering the center of gravity, he used speed to eat the opponent raw, which reflected the explosive power and the perfect combination of man and ball. After that, he took off and knocked out the replacement center for a dunk, which showed that Kobe's power should not be underestimated. After finishing the basket, the scene of pulling the basket to do pull-ups, and slapping the rebound angrily reflects Kobe's unyielding fighting spirit.

Of course, in the eyes of the referee, this shot was superfluous. When everyone was amazed, they did not forget to make up a technical foul for Kobe.

McGrady made a free throw for a technical foul, and Kobe also made a free throw for a foul.

As the two sides switched back to their main players one after another, the Lakers gradually took the initiative on the court.

Although the confrontation between McGrady and Kobe is basically evenly divided, the overall strength of the Magic is still slightly inferior. Grant Hill, who is trying to come back for the third time, still has not recovered the comprehensive skills of the year. Time to realize, but the body honestly can't keep up with the rhythm.

比赛的结果也如实地反应了这一点，湖人116比107战胜魔术，科比砍下42分4篮板5助攻2抢断3盖帽的华丽数据，加内特21分20篮板7助攻，本·华莱士也拿下了8分14篮板5封盖，在两人制霸篮下的表现下，湖人比魔术的篮板球数多出了15个，成为了获胜的关键。

McGrady scored 45 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists, and none of his teammates scored in double figures except Grant Hill and Mike Miller.

After the game, players from both sides hugged each other.

Kobe and Tracy McGrady were the focus of the game, and the conversation between the two on the court also attracted a large number of reporters to follow up.

After making a few jokes with his iron buddies, Kobe suddenly pulled up his jersey, covered his mouth, and lowered his voice, obviously to prevent the next words from being photographed by reporters.

"You have to tell Grant that it's not a good time for him to choose to come back. I noticed that his performance has not fully recovered. Our new team doctor can help if needed."

"I talked to him, and he insisted that he has recovered... Wait, why did you think of saying this?" McGrady was puzzled.

"The boss of our team, the one who was almost kissed by Barkley on the show two days ago, specifically asked me before this game, but you know, I don't know Grant very well, so I went directly to him and said this The problem is a bit strange." Kobe said the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Okay, I'll talk to Grant."

After the game, Kobe and McGrady covered their mouths and said something, which became a topic of widespread speculation by fans, and various media also took advantage of it.

"Shocked! Kobe openly recruited Tracy McGrady to join the team. Is Orlando's new star likely to join the Zijin Army?"

"Exposed! The Magic Lakers are secretly discussing a deal, and a new Jordan Pippen combination will be born!"

……

The former Grant Hill had the same glory for a while. In his rookie season, he squeezed out the peak Jordan and became the all-star vote leader. His style of play is both explosive and gorgeous. The young Kosher, who had just entered the league, was trembling.

With several serious injuries, Hill's limelight was gradually surpassed by the rising Carter, Iverson, Kobe, McGrady and others, and his title has changed from Jordan's successor to glass ankle.

Back home, Hill unwrapped a thick bandage around his ankle.

This is the third season, but fortunately, after playing more than a dozen games, it's just a dull pain.

Tracy suddenly raised her ankle today, what does it mean?

The phone rang suddenly, interrupting Hill's meditation, it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, this is Grant Hill." Out of politeness, Hill answered the phone.

"Grant, hello, I'm Jim Buss, vice president of the Los Angeles Lakers."

"Oh yes, you are the one that Tracy said... what can I do for you?" Hill was puzzled by this, why the Lakers suddenly became interested in him, who had been out for two years due to injury ?

"I wish I could talk to you about your ankle." Jim's serious voice came from the phone.

"Thank you, Mr. Bass, but my ankle has returned to health. My doctor allowed me to come back to play." There is no precedent in the league for using psychological tactics to separate the feelings of teams and players. The emerging Lakers president is still very vigilant.

"You mean Dr. James Nanley? He's a good guy, but he's not good at sports medicine. I don't think it's a good decision for you to come back this season. Grant, you know very well that your ankle is not Fully recovered, you're just trying to prove you can play, and that's not an option for the Braves."

Hill was silent. His attending doctor was indeed James Nanley, an alumnus of Duke University. Not many people knew this.If you want to drive a wedge between yourself and the team, then the information prepared by the person opposite can be said to be quite sufficient.

Moreover, Nanli once advised himself that if he comes back this season, if he is injured again, his sports career may come to an end.

"I watched the game today and the Grant Hill I remember wasn't the hesitant, hesitant, you're worried about your ankle but you want to play for the team. I know it's tough, but Grant, you have to make a choice." Jim continued.

"So, you want me to announce the season reimbursement, and then continue to lie back on the hospital bed? No, as long as I can stand up and walk, I will appear on the court!" Hill's voice raised unconsciously.

"No, I hope you can return to the top, even if you are wearing another team's uniform, no one who loves basketball can bear the injury of a good athlete, and regret it for the rest of his life. Look at Alonzo, he because He took painkillers and went into battle with an injury and finally broke his kidney. I helped him contact the most suitable hospital and found a kidney source. I believe he can come back next season. And Shaq, although he is no longer The Lakers played, but we still provided the best sports medicine specialist to operate on him. So Grant, I hope you will consider my suggestion, I will let our Dr. Carter contact you, he is the best in the United States Sports Medicine Specialist."

"Why help one of your opponents?" Hill struggled for a long time, and finally squeezed out such a sentence.

"Because I want to see how good a healthy Grant Hill is."

　What kind of rhythm is it to recommend the favorites on the Internet... I'm a little flustered...
