Under the surprised gaze of his teammates on the bench, Bai Qiang walked up to Steve Nash and said, "Coach, I want to return to the game!"
Nash looked at Bai Qiang and didn't know how to answer for a while.
What kind of player can recover as before after spraining his ankle in such a short period of time? This is unscientific!
Of course, playing in another world is unscientific. The main focus is to shock the world and weep ghosts and gods.
Only Bai Qiang himself understands this. As for everyone else, they are all trapped in a gourd.
As the head coach, Nash hopes that under his guidance the team can win consecutively and go straight to the championship; but as a former professional athlete, he does not want the players to bet their careers on just one victory.
After all, health is the capital of revolution!
"Bai, you don't want to play in this game! Winning the game is important, but I want my players to be healthy!"
"Nash, although you are nothing outstanding in terms of tactical guidance, you still care about your players." Bai Qiang thought in his heart, and couldn't help but admire the coach he once despised.
That year, if Nash had properly arranged the team's lineup, Harden would not have been injured in the playoffs and still languished after his efforts.
The donkeys in the production team can't be used like that. It would be strange if they don't die from exhaustion!
"Coach, I appreciate your concern, but my body has recovered and I can continue to race on the field!"
Let's put it this way, Bai Qiang didn't feel any pain at all after being stepped on by the Greek monster. He just fell down after losing his balance.
The moment he fell to the ground, he felt a sense of shit. He might have had a stomachache due to eating cold food at noon. Who said he wasn't used to a foreign country yet.
Therefore, when the team doctor asked Bai Qiang how the injury was, he pretended to be in a state of despair.
He also worked hard to expel the debris from his body decently!
Chinese people are relatively face-conscious and can't do it directly on the NBA court like Pierce.
Seeing that Bai Qiang was so eager to play, Nash stopped blocking him and said:
"Next timeout, get up there!"
Bai Qiang sat back on the bench next to the bench (an exclusive position for rookies), intending to wait quietly for the next timeout, but Cabaro did not let him do so.
"Man! Why are you back so soon? Your foot is healed?" Cabaro pointed to Bai Qiang's injured foot and asked doubtfully.
"Um!"
"Man! Stop pretending to me. It's not that easy to be stepped on. You are holding on, right?"
Not to mention Cabaro, no one here believed that Bai Qiang's foot had recovered, because this was simply unrealistic. It would be difficult for someone as strong as LeBron James to recover in such a short period of time.
"No."
Bai Qiang was too lazy to say more. They were not in the same dimension, so they couldn't understand it no matter how he explained it.
"Man, let me advise you. We all get a basic salary, so why are we working so hard? The winning or losing of the game has nothing to do with us."
What Cabaro said is not unreasonable. With a basic salary contract, why are you fighting for your life?
It's just an ordinary game. If you lose, you lose, and if you win, you win. It won't have much impact on the entire season.
However, for Bai Qiang, it was different. He is not a person who always takes revenge, but the Greek monster is malicious and hurts people. If he is not punished now, then when will he be punished!
"I want to go up and put my feet back!"
Hearing this, Cabaro's eyes widened in disbelief!
Is this man in front of me a lunatic? He goes into battle with injuries just for revenge?
All I can say is, “There are many wonders in the world!”
…
Beep!
The referee's whistle finally sounded, Jordan fouled, and Lopez made two free throws.
"Uh-huh!"
Lopez made a solid hit on the first free throw.
He couldn't take advantage against Bai Qiang, but he was able to play with ease against Jordan.
The referee signaled that the rotation players of both teams could play, and Steve asked Bai Qiang to replace Jordan.
When Lopez saw Bai Qiang come on the court, his body trembled slightly and he thought to himself: "Why is this monster back? Wasn't he deposed by Giannis?"
Lopez would never have thought that Bai Qiang would have an indestructible body and be immune to all physical damage.
Bai Qiang also noticed Lopez staring at him, so he put on a professional fake smile and said:
"Hello, my man, long time no see, I miss you so much!"
(Everyone fell down.)
It's been a long time since we last saw each other. A few minutes ago, they were fighting hand-to-hand on the field.
Lopez did not respond to Bai Qiang, but prepared for his second free throw.
"Your free throws are really accurate!"
Bai Qiang said softly to Lopez. The sound was too loud and the referee heard it, but he would be called for a technical foul.
In psychology, "If a player is said to be shooting accurately, his shooting will become inaccurate." This interference method is called "psychological suggestion."
Sure enough, Lopez's second free throw bounced out of the frame.
Bai Qiang controlled the rebound and passed the ball to Harden.
positional warfare.
Bai Qiang stood at the top of the arc, asking with both hands.
What the hell?
No, as a rookie center, this is a bit too much!
How can a center stand at the top of the arc and play singles? Do you think you are Embiid?
He is the boss of the team and can play whatever he wants. How dare you, an undrafted player!
Usually when Harden passes the ball to you, he values you; if he doesn't pass the ball to you, what can you do?
As an All-Star guard, James Harden can completely play one-on-one across the court, and this is what the head coach allows.
While holding the ball, Harden said: "Bai Qiang, you go to the basket!"
"No! Pass the ball over, I want to open a singles!"
"What?" Harden had a big question mark on his face.
When will it be the rookie center's turn to compete with him for the ball? I'm speechless!
"Hurry up!" Bai Qiang urged.
"It's a beautiful idea. I am the MVP of the regular season and the player who won the scoring title. How can I be at your mercy?"
Harden thought in his mind and started to play singles with the ball, hoping to show the rookie the strength of a wave of All-Star guards.
"boom!"
"boom!"
Harden dribbles the ball under his crotch, continuously adjusting Holiday's rhythm!
Even the defensive hero Holiday found it difficult to cut off Harden's crotch dribbling, which made him very irritated.
Left!
Right!
Holiday couldn't figure out which side Harden was going to break through from, so he could only concentrate on keeping an eye on him.
Harden accelerated from the left, Holiday followed closely, and his center of gravity shifted to one side.
Suddenly, Harden stopped suddenly and stepped back outside the three-point line.
The rhythm of the top defender is indeed well-deserved!
Gaining space to shoot, Harden made a decisive three-pointer! !
Holiday's forward dive was a beat slower, and he could only watch helplessly as Harden used his signature step-back to shoot a three-pointer in front of him!
Just when everyone thought the basketball would hit the net, the goddess of luck did not favor this top scorer.
The ball circled the rim three times before falling into Lopez's arms.
"Shit!"
Harden cursed casually and had to defend again.
Lopez made a long pass from the five-point guard, and Holiday finished with a rebound under the basket.
The Nets' offensive firepower is outstanding, but their defense can only be described as miserable.
Any team in the league can score high points against Brooklyn, not because those teams are great, but because the Nets' defense is really bad.
"Bai Qiang, what the hell are you doing!"
Harden angrily said that he was very dissatisfied with Bai Qiang's behavior just now.
"You are a center, why are you jumping around on the outside? You are grabbing rebounds for me!"
"Why?"
Bai Qiang does his job, he is a man who has defeated his opponents with three-pointers, why can't he jump around from the outside!
"Just because you are an undrafted player! Don't think that just because you scored a winning goal, you think you are a big shot. Rookie, you should know your identity!"
Harden really doesn't mention which pot is the best, but Bai Qiang hates people mentioning that he was undrafted. Harden's belittlement touched his bottom line.
"Shut up, Jamies!"
Seeing that Bai Qiang and Harden were about to have a conflict on the court, Durant, as the team leader, quickly broke up the fight and stabilized the two.
