Sports medicine starts with the Sun Miracle Doctor

Chapter 287: Absolutely awesome, there will be a day when the dream team won’t win a medal

The last day of August.

At the RCA Dome, after the last game of Group C between China and the United States, Chen Yu was not in a hurry to leave the stadium. He found a secluded place to sit down and accepted an exclusive interview with Su Wei.

"Actually, you guys played pretty well." Chen Yu said with a smile.

As soon as this game started, the Chinese team caught the American team by surprise.

At the end of the first quarter, they were leading the American team by 12 points.

And until 6 seconds before halftime, the Chinese team still maintained the lead and almost set a record.

You know, since the formation of the Dream Team, no team has ever led the United States at half-time in any international competition.

Su Wei on the opposite side gave a wry smile. It can only be said that the Dream Team was as careless as a tiger taking a nap. In the second half, the Dream Team became serious and immediately reversed the game.

"Dr. Chen, let's talk about business," Su Yu said.

The original article he wrote was that Liu Yudong's knees were full of water, had severe inflammation and old injuries of torn ligaments. As for Hu Weidong, his feet were in unbearable pain.

"And Hu Weidong, if my diagnosis is correct, he should have a mild fracture in his right foot now. In other words, he is playing with a fractured foot. You can't even imagine the pain he endured. unimaginable."

Doesn't it mean that the Basketball Association failed to fulfill its responsibility to take care of the players, allowing the team to play with injuries, and that the medical protection for the national team players was not good enough, resulting in the players not receiving good treatment.

But Su Wei helped him in this matter. Since he decided to repay him, after thinking about it, Chen Yu said: "Shaq's surgery was to solve the problem of his toe deformity. It has been 9 days since the surgery on the 50th. He I can now move around and start rehabilitation training.”

After arriving in Phoenix, local fans quickly called the combination of O'Neal and Hardaway the OP combination.

Then he accused the Basketball Association of inappropriate behavior and causing too much harm to the players. He also said that if Liu Yudong cannot be cured, he will not be able to gain a foothold in the NBA.

But the spirit is the spirit. Since you are injured, you should treat it well.

Chen Yu then opened the manuscript and read it carefully.

Su Yu didn't believe that the national team didn't know that the two were injured, but just didn't take it seriously.

The two key players have both played in this World Championships, and Hu Weidong was once the starter and performed well.

Only Chen Yu knows this kind of first-hand information.

"This is no longer a problem for you." Chen Yu said dumbfounded.

Su Yan knew these two people.

He said that a healthy Liu Yudong is worthy of a contract from the Suns, but Liu Yudong's current situation is not optimistic, and after this contact, Chen Yu found that not only Liu Yudong was playing injured, but Hu Weidong and others were also the same.

The subtext is that if Liu Yudong is not cured, the Suns will not sign a contract with Liu Yudong.

The general meaning is that Chen Yu, as a team doctor, evaluates this possible signing.

"So before the start of the new season, he will definitely be able to return to the team healthy, but he probably won't play in the preseason."

Su Yan's expression changed again, becoming more solemn than ever before: "Doctor Chen, are you telling the truth?"

Su Yan couldn't help but nod, his eyes full of excitement.

In other words, players like these two who came from that era have a life-threatening spirit that is willing to sacrifice.

It will take another two months to recover and the regular season will begin before officially returning.

To put it bluntly, for the sake of performance, those people don't care about the health of the players at all.

He thought that the injury was not serious, that he could hold on and be slightly injured without leaving the line of fire. Who knew that the injury was so serious.

Chen Yu nodded, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his words: "Actually, you don't need to ask what I want to say, just write it yourself."

Chen Yu continued: "Then there is the second question. In your manuscript, the language is too light. It can be more intense. You can even say that I yelled at them or something. Anyway, I really scolded them. You can’t do anything to me.”

"It's not serious, but it's too mild." Chen Yu knocked on the document and said, "Liu Yudong, his ligaments and meniscus were torn, the cartilage was severely worn, and there is a high probability that the knees are full of bone fragments. You can think of it this way. It's like having a handful of thumbtacks in your shoe and you're not only walking but jumping, I guess you can imagine the pain."

Chen Yu continued: "As for whether you can completely regain health, I think there is no problem. He will become healthier and stronger. Then there is the cooperation with Hardaway. What are your expectations for the OP combination? This question should be answered by you. Ask Brian. In the team, I am only responsible for the health of the players. What results they can achieve depends on their own efforts."

Chen Yu glanced at Su Yan, then took the document and asked, "What do you want to know?"

Su Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a while, and then said: "But you are right, he should be scolded, and he should be scolded well."

Su Yan was stunned and asked, "Did I say it was too serious?"

O'Neal teamed up with Kobe, and fans called it the OK combination.

Although it is not a dislocated fracture, there are cracks in the bones, and the pain is definitely no less than that of Liu Yudong.

Su Yan was excited and immediately asked: "I only have one question, how is the result of O'Neal's surgery? Can he fully recover before the new season? At the same time, I know that you, Hardaway, and O'Neal are all very good friends. , The two of them have worked together as early as the Magic era, and they even reached the finals together. So what do you think of them getting together in the Suns? What expectations does your team management have for their cooperation?"

Su Yan thanked him aloud. Although Chen Yu didn't reveal too much, it was a great honor to be able to say so much.

Chen Yu put down the document and said, "Two questions. First, you don't understand the injuries of the two of them at all."

Su Yan's expression changed.

Chen Yu said nothing, thinking, are you sure you want to question me?
Su Yan took a deep breath and frowned: "Then this is nonsense!"

Pretty much what I expected.

This was all discussed before, so this interview is obviously a bit redundant.

Su Yan picked up his backpack, took out a manuscript from it and handed it over: "This is the interview manuscript I prepared in advance. You can take a look at it first to see if there are any questions. Secondly, it was not easy for me to get such an interview I have an opportunity for an exclusive interview, so I want to have a good chat with you. ”

O'Neal's O comes first, so he's happy with the group's name.

Su Yan put away the documents and thanked Chen Yu seriously.

Then he said in a heavy tone: "Dr. Chen, I know you are of Chinese descent, but in my contact with you, I can feel that you have a special affection for China. I have also read the media reports about you. , I know that you work hard to become an excellent sports medicine expert because of your family.”

"In China, due to various reasons, especially injuries, there are actually many, many outstanding athletes who eventually disappeared from the crowd. For example, Song Tao, Li Huayun, and Zhang Xiaorui should have had a better future. But because of the injury, he didn’t get the best treatment and his talent was wasted.”

"So Dr. Chen, I know my request is a bit excessive, but I really want to ask you to seriously consider whether you can open a hospital in China. Our country is developing rapidly, and doctors' incomes are getting higher and higher. Do you choose Building a hospital in China would really be a good choice.”

His sincere words moved Chen Yu a little.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yu said: "I will consider it."

Su Yan didn't know if Chen Yu's words were just an excuse or something, but he still stood up and thanked him seriously again.

After the interview, Su Yan left in a hurry.

Su Yan was not in a hurry to take out the manuscript in his hand. He wanted to make changes, and he felt that now was not a good time to release it.

Maybe it would be better to wait until the Chinese competition schedule is over before releasing it.

As for Chen Yu, he did everything he could and no longer cared about the follow-up, and returned to Phoenix the next day.

There will be another day of rest before the quarterfinals.

Moreover, during the group stage, although Chen Yu was with the team, he did not play much role throughout.

Nelson is a trainer and a physical therapist. If no players are injured, he is actually competent enough in terms of daily work.

Therefore, whether Chen Yu stays in Indiana or not, the effect is the same.

If you have this time, you might as well go back to the clinic and deal with your work.

It's already September, and the major leagues in Europe have started to play one after another. Players from other leagues who had been in clinics for maintenance have already returned, leaving only a few players from Serie A, Ronaldo, Batty, and Vieri.

Serie A has been delayed in starting due to television broadcast rights. The latest news is that the first round will be postponed to September 9th.

There are only two weeks left, and Chen Yu has to do some finishing work.

Therefore, if there is no accident in the next quarter-finals, Chen Yu may not come.

It’s not too late to wait for the semi-finals and finals.

George Karl didn't complain too much. He knew that Chen Yu was busy and everything was going well for the dream team, so he readily agreed.

But what Chen Yu didn't expect was that in the evening of the 5th, Chen Yu came out of the operating room after an operation, changed clothes in the dressing room, picked up his cell phone, and found two missed calls.

It was Nelson calling.

Called just half an hour ago.

Then I received a text message from him, asking Chen Yu if he wanted to come to Indiana. If he didn't come, he wouldn't come.

Chen Yu didn't react at all. What do you mean, don't come if you don't come again.

Chen Yu sat down and dialed Nelson's number. There was a lot of noise on the phone, wondering what was going on.

"What's wrong, what does that text message mean?" Chen Yu asked.

"wait for me."

Nelson said something hastily, probably walking to a quiet place.

"Chen, you didn't watch the game?" Nelson asked.

"No, what's wrong?"

I am so busy that I have no time to watch the game.

Nelson sighed: "Chen, we lost."

Chen Yu was stunned.

Lost? The dream team actually lost. What happened?
"Who do you lose to? Just lose. For the quarter-finals, the top four will be fine." Chen Yu said quickly.

It should be okay to capsize in the gutter and lose once in a while.

After all, this year’s dream team doesn’t have many stars.

Nelson smiled bitterly and said: "What quarter-finals? Did you remember the time wrong? Today is the quarter-finals. We lost to Yugoslavia by 3 points. Chen, we are out and can't get a medal." ”

Chen Yu blinked, almost thinking he heard wrongly.

It’s only the quarterfinals and you’re losing?
"Aaron, today is not April Fool's Day, so don't joke."

Are you kidding me, the dream team, no matter how the boat capsizes in the gutter, it won't be so severe.

Nelson sighed: "I'm not kidding, otherwise you can turn on the TV and take a look."

Chen Yu quickly changed his clothes, ran to the doctor's lounge, and turned on the TV.

There should be a live broadcast on TNT.

The game is over and it’s time for the post-game summary.

"Kenny, stop defending them. What they played was a piece of shit. They didn't cooperate and acted alone. I have never seen such an ugly game." On the TV, Barkley spat and complained, beeping The continuous beeping sound was enough to show how dirty he was scolding.

At this moment, Chen Yu completely believed that the dream team had really lost.

What the hell.

It's not a dream team, it's invincible, why is it eliminated in the quarter-finals?

You must know that in the national team a few days ago, not only George Karl, but also all the players had a very relaxed mentality and felt that winning the championship was easy and relaxed.

In fact, it is true. They won all three games in the group stage and beat Algeria by a full 3 points.

The result is this...

Chen Yu rubbed his temples. It's true. He still wants to become a champion with the national team. It's good, he doesn't even get a medal.

Picking up the phone, Chen Yu called Nelson again and asked him if there would be a game tomorrow and what time it would start.

"Yes, do you want to come over at five o'clock in the afternoon?" Nelson asked.

Chen Yu smiled bitterly and said: "Go on, there is a beginning and an end. There must be an end."

After hanging up the phone and looking at the TV again, Chen Yu couldn't help but sigh.

It’s so damn amazing that even the dream team couldn’t win a medal!
Such a situation happened temporarily, and Chen Yu had no choice but to lose his job in the clinic. Early the next morning, he took a plane and arrived in Indiana.

When we arrived at the hotel, there were a large number of reporters outside the hotel.

Last night, Chen Yu deliberately flipped through the news. The news that the American team was eliminated was like dropping a bomb in the American sports world, causing an uproar.

From players to coaches, all major media outlets almost scolded him, all of which were one-sided criticism.

He even criticized all the stars who refused to be recruited by the Dream Team, saying that they had no sense of honor and had brought shame to the United States.

So it makes sense that so many reporters come.

Chen Yu was carrying his bag. Firstly, he didn't want to pay attention to these reporters. Secondly, he didn't want to get involved in this situation. However, these reporters did not let Chen Yu go, and they saw Chen Yu from a distance.

When Chen Yu passed by, he suddenly stopped.

"What did you say?"

Chen Yu turned around and quickly came to a reporter.

Glancing at his press pass, the Los Angeles Times.

Suddenly being named, the reporter was stunned, blinked, and said with some lack of confidence: "I want to ask you whether the failure of the Dream Team has something to do with you. Your medical team failed to protect the team. status?"

Chen Yu waved his hand to stop other reporters who wanted to ask questions, and stared at this reporter.

Calvin Abel.

Remember you.

"Is your brain flooded? You would ask such a question." Chen Yu cursed rudely.

At such a critical moment, he actually wanted to throw the blame on himself. It's strange that Chen Yu had nice words to say.

"Let me ask you, during the entire World Championships, were any players on the national team injured? No. So, how do you have the nerve to say that our medical team did not ensure the condition of the players. Or do you think that all our medical teams are magic? Can every one of their players become Michael Jordan?”

This reporter's face turned green, especially when the reporters around him looked at him like how could you be so stupid.

"I didn't mean that." He defended hastily.

"Then what do you mean?" Chen Yu snorted coldly: "If you want to blame the team's loss on our medical team, then I'm sorry, we don't bear this responsibility."

After saying that, Chen Yu turned around and left.

What the hell, if you lose, blame the team doctor, what did you think?

Join Nelson.

Unmentioned, morale was extremely low.

When George Karl saw Chen Yu, he was completely embarrassed.

There's nothing you can do, it's embarrassing!
On the way here, Chen Yu was still thinking about whether he should give some advice to revive his morale, but now he thought about it and let it go.

That's all. If you can't win a medal anyway, does it matter where you finish in the end?
In the eyes of Americans, failure to take first place is called failure.

At 5:30 that evening, Chen Yu went to Conseco Arena with the team.

Originally, the attention of this World Championship was average, and the attendance rate has been low. Now that it has been eliminated, the attendance rate is even more pitiful.

The entire arena was sparsely occupied with only a third of the people seated.

During the final warm-up before the game, Chen Yu was watching from the sidelines when he suddenly heard someone calling his name.

Still speaking Chinese.

Turning around, he saw that it was Su Yan.

"By the way, you have a competition this morning. How was the result?" Chen Yu came over and asked.

Su Yan sighed: "If we lose, we can only fight for 11th place."

His face was full of melancholy.

So far in this World Championship, the Chinese team has only won one game.

And if we play against Angola tomorrow, we will most likely lose.

This ending can no longer be described as bleak.

"Dr. Chen, I plan to publish that interview after tomorrow's game. I really feel that our basketball association must make some changes." Su Yu said with a serious expression.

He has been waiting for the right time.

But now, Su Yu felt that the time had come.

There should be some lessons learned from this fiasco.
