NBA: The best team doctor in history

Chapter 130: The first match against New Zealand, part-time national football coach, Jiang Ming’s midfield guidance!
"I'm fine. I had a closed injection at a track and field diamond competition. I'm much better now. Thank you Director Jiang for your concern."

Liu Xiang smiled and patted Jiang Ming on the shoulder, and Jiang Ming didn't ask any more questions.

Because the team medical team of this yellow race pride and hurdler is definitely top-notch in the country. You know, Chinese track and field team is counting on the sprinter Liu Xiang to win the gold medal in the 110-meter hurdles again in this Olympics.

So his medical team must be good.

After that it was the appearance rehearsal. Jiang Ming really stood next to Liu Wei at the edge of the fifth row. This was definitely due to his height. If he was in a 2-meter-long crowd, he would definitely not be seen. But standing next to point guard Liu Wei, it was almost the same!

He can see the scene, and the camera on site can capture his face. At this time, there is no need to cover his whole body. It is an honor to skip a few tenths of a second!
After all, at home, other national delegations may not practice before appearing, but China must. Yao Ming is in the front holding the national flag, and the welcoming lady holding the country's name is the most beautiful and dignified one among all the ladies.

In fact, since the lights were not on today and the Bird's Nest was a mess with people, Jiang Ming just checked the procedures and left.

Jiang Ming was really excited when he arrived at the opening ceremony the next day.

Sean, Jiang Muyan, Fang Xiaotong and their parents all bought scalper tickets and watched the show in the stands.

As a member of the delegation, Jiang Ming was watching the big TV screen backstage.

Although they can only watch TV, the TV does not need to turn on the sound. They can clearly hear the sound of the live performance and the host's introduction. The experience is completely different and truly immersive.

At 2008:8 on the evening of August 8, 20, the world-renowned opening ceremony of the th Olympic Games in the imperial capital began grandly at the National Stadium (Bird's Nest)!
At night, the "Bird's Nest"-shaped National Stadium is illuminated with brilliant lights.

Eight!
Nine!
This number!
Everything is so auspicious!
The Olympic movement with a history of more than 2,000 years and the splendid Chinese culture inherited for more than 5,000 years complement each other and jointly write a magnificent new chapter of human civilization.

The stadium with a capacity of more than 9 people was packed and the crowd was excited.

After the opening was announced, the entire venue suddenly went dark, and a dazzling halo illuminated the ancient sundial in the center of the venue.

With each powerful strike, 2008 ancient Chinese percussion instruments, the cans, made soul-stirring sounds, and the white lights on the cans flashed one by one, forming a countdown number.

Even the civilized Jiang Ming couldn't help but shout "Fuck!"

This sound is so shocking!

This is the sound of beating drums!

He had only experienced this kind of scene in his dreams, and because he didn't pay much attention to the news about the rehearsal, this was the first time he knew that the opening would be so grand!
在雷鸣般的击缶声中，全场观众随着数字的变换一起大声呼喊：10、9、8、7、6、5、4、

Jiang Ming and his companions, Liu Wei, Sun Yue and others, all shouted with all their might:
3, 2, 1...

Amid cheers, the opening ceremony officially began: 2008 actors beat drums and sang, chanting "It is a great pleasure to have friends coming from afar", expressing their welcome to Olympic athletes and guests from all over the world.

The shocking and orderly shouting gave Jiang Ming goosebumps.

The opening performance begins!
Painting scroll, ritual music, Silk Road, blue planet with words, 29 big footprints fireworks
Wait, wait, wait, it’s dizzying!
Everyone opened their eyes wide, afraid of missing a single detail.

Is this the Olympic Games held in China?
Jiang Muyan and Sean in the stands were stunned. Robert, Jensen, Thomas Reese and other Trail Blazers friends who were watching the live broadcast in front of TV were also shocked. This is the true power of a great country!
So cool!
Many people left messages to Jiang Ming asking him when he would appear, saying he was so handsome.

Jiang Ming was really shocked by the Tai Chi performance in the natural segment, and his favorite part was the performance. Accompanied by the host's commentary, he felt like a "gentle breeze".

“The human dream of flying, the desire to be close to nature, and the wind of Tai Chi fill the universe.

The performance of Tai Chi embodies the blend of tradition and future, the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, and the unity of nature and man.

"

Then Jiang Ming was fascinated by the scene on the big-screen TV. Suddenly, a Tai Chi Bagua diagram appeared, symbolizing the eight natural phenomena of heaven, earth, thunder, wind, water, fire, mountain and marsh, which gave rise to the changes of all things in the world.

And these seem to be made up of "people"!

That's right!

2008 Tai Chi performers lined up in a circle.

In traditional Chinese concepts, a circle represents size and perfection. This formation is called "the sky is round and the earth is square."

These 2008 Tai Chi masters kept running and changing formations while practicing Tai Chi, which made Jiang Ming want to go down and practice with them.

This performance is also the most familiar to the Trail Blazers players:
"Wow, it looks similar to the Eight-Section Brocade and Five-animal Exercises!"

"Yes!"

Robert replied in a serious tone:
"Harmony between man and nature! This should be the highest realm that Director Jiang talked about!"

Afterwards, Brother Liu Huan and London singer Sarah Brightman sang the theme song.

As expected, "The Capital Welcomes You" failed to become the theme song. Jiang Ming originally thought that "Welcome You" was invincible.

Until the ethereal singing of "You and Me" appeared.

That’s okay!

This kind of arrangement is necessary for such a grand occasion!

I feel a little sleepy after the passion.

Because the next step is the appearance ceremony of the delegations from various countries, and the host country is the last to appear, which means it has to wait until all 203 countries have appeared.

As I waited, my eyelids began to droop.

"Everyone line up, we're ready to enter!"

The Argentine team, which has excellent performance in both football and basketball, was represented by Ginobili, who plays for the NBA Spurs, as the flag bearer, and the staff quickly came over to remind them.

Yao Ming was also dressed by the staff, holding the national flag, and preparing to appear on stage.

10 minutes later!
"The last delegation to come towards us was the Chinese delegation!"

The 2-meter-tall man, who is known as the Great Wall of China, entered the venue with his back straight and the national flag held high!

"boom!"

"boom!"

When Jiang Ming followed a group of athletes into the stadium, he suddenly felt tinnitus in his ears, because all the spectators and leaders in front of him stood up, and the cheers from all directions made him feel unreal.

"This is the time when the Chinese delegation has the largest number of participants in the Olympics, and also the time when the Chinese delegation has the most participating events!"

When the host was introducing them, the camera actually caught sight of him and Liu Wei for a second. The two of them waved small national flags and gestured to the camera. Even Jiang Ming's eyes became moist.

In just this one second, many sports medicine professionals, traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, and Chinese doctors took screenshots and posted them on QQ space.

This person is definitely the pride of the medical community.

The doctor stood in the middle of the athlete delegation, the first person to cross the field! He would definitely dominate the headlines of tomorrow's medical newspapers.

Many doctors didn’t know Jiang Ming a few days ago, but after the interview when he was the torchbearer, everyone became his fan. He is so hardcore in spreading Chinese medicine culture, so handsome!

At this time, there was a child at the scene who was led by the staff and held hands by Yao Ming. This represents hope!

"Come on, brothers!"

After the performance, Jiang Ming saw that all the Chinese athletes were encouraging each other, and he also kept clapping his hands. Cheer up!
As the last torch arrived at the scene, gymnastics prince Li Ning ran over the Bird's Nest to light the torch, and then the opening ceremony ended, and the Olympic competition cycle officially began!
"Wow! It's really shocking!"

Jiang Ming and Roy, who had specially found him to take a photo, asked Paul to help take a photo at the scene, and then they hurriedly prepared to set off.

Because football matches have the longest cycle, the group stage will also start the earliest. They will gather in Tianjin tomorrow morning to open the game. Although many of the athletes from more than 200 countries may not know him, the Dream Team knows him. When Jiang Ming and Roy took the "team member" photo, Durant, Anthony, Deron, Love, Westbrook and others all looked over and finally asked Roy if this was Dr. Jiang?
"Yes."

"If you hadn't told me earlier, I would have gone up there to get the contact information."

"He's more handsome in person than in the photo." Kidd gave a thumbs up while looking at Jiang Ming's back. It was hard to imagine that China had such a great team doctor.

Roy:

"Don't think I don't know what you guys are up to."

Boozer:
"This guy is amazing. Just from that interview, I want to go to the museum there. It's amazing."

"Traditional Chinese medicine is profound and it seems like it can really cure any of us." Kobe also sighed. After all, he had experienced it and almost got eliminated in the first round.

After that, he always felt that he was defeated by Jiang Ming in the finals. If it weren't for Jiang Ming, the Celtics' physical fitness would definitely not be able to match that of the Purple Army.

Afterwards, his management team also found traditional Chinese medicine treatment for him. I can’t really tell whether other treatments were effective, but cupping was really comfortable.

So now he no longer hates Jiang Ming's team, but instead is thinking about how to call Jiang Ming to help them next season.

After the finals, almost all NBA teams have figured it out:

Don't fight the Blazers' medical staff.

But don’t let the Trail Blazers come up in the playoffs, because then they can call on Jiang Ming’s team to be hired doctors!
the next morning.

Four members of Jiang Ming's team appeared at the Tianjin Olympic Sports Center wearing Li Ning brand team doctor jackets.

The first round of the 2008 Imperial Capital Olympic Games men's football group stage begins!
China VS New Zealand!
Before the game, Jiang Ming did some stretching exercises for Dong Fangzhuo and the other two, and only allowed the three to go on the court to warm up after he supervised Chen Tao to complete a section of Ba Duan Jin.

Then, because they were also staff members, although they could not sit next to the bench, they could stand in the player tunnel and watch, which was also very good, so Jiang Ming and four others took four folding benches and watched the game up close in the player tunnel.

Jiang Ming also looked at the schedule before the game preparation. The Olympic Committee still understood that the time arrangements for the three major balls were staggered. The Chinese men's basketball team's first game was on the 9th, and there was no overlapping in the group matches afterwards.

After all, the men's basketball and football teams have the highest ratings, and we can't let the start times of these two games overlap.

Reassured, Jiang Ming watched the game happily.

After watching the first half, I found it totally unpleasant.

Not to mention the 0-0 score, the Chinese team had a possession rate of only 29% and only had one shot which was not on target.

New Zealand had 5 shots, 3 of which were on target. If it weren't for the powerful goalkeeper, they would have fallen behind.

Sean, the "goalkeeper for a weak team", really speaks his mind.

Jiang Ming also scratched his head:

"If we continue to play like this in the second half, it will only be a matter of time before we lose."

Indeed, even Fang Xiaotong, who knows nothing about football, was speechless. There was no feeling of winning at all. No wonder people say that the Chinese national football team is stinky and really has no spirit.

"No wonder the news said our football team had zero goals in the Olympics. We didn't score a single goal. We really can't get in with this level of strength."

The main reason was that he found that head coach Dujkovic did not communicate much with the players, or even that communication was impossible. Except for a few overseas players who could understand what he said, everyone else was like wood.

This is the spirit in the first match against New Zealand???

That's absolutely not possible!
If it was a league, Jiang Ming wouldn't care, but this is a game representing the country, and it is a rare opportunity for the Chinese national football team to enter the Olympics!

Help if you can!

Although Jiang Ming can't control all the players.

But at least there are five players who can be mentioned!

They are Dong Fangzhuo, Wang Chu, Chen Tao, Zheng Zhi who had communicated with him, and Gao Lin who admired her very much.

While Jiang Ming was doing quick physical therapy, he said to the three people:

"Get up, what are you afraid of with me here???"

"And keep your eyes on the No. 8 player. He's clearly suffering from leg cramps and is the slowest runner on the field. Open up a breakthrough from his left winger position!"

Zheng Zhi quickly agreed: "Okay, I'll look for the number 8 in the second half!"

The ball-controlling prince Wang Chu also nodded: "I will try my best to cause trouble on the left side!"

"Go!" Chen Tao is the most motivated and fierce!

The Chinese national football team's medical team was stunned. If they heard correctly, Jiang Ming was working part-time as the Chinese national football team's coach?
With Jiang Ming’s simple suggestion, the Chinese national team’s ball possession rate in the second half really increased!
Regardless of whether a goal can be scored, the difference can be immediately noticed on the field.

They kept breaking through on the left side and the number of interceptions they suffered decreased compared to the first half, while their offensive pass success rate increased significantly.

The reason is that No. 8 can't charge forward, and even if he tries his best to charge forward a few times, his physical energy will be rapidly consumed if he is kept stared at and beaten!

These successful breakthroughs on the left side also boosted the morale of Zheng Zhi in the midfield and Chen Tao and Wang Chu on the left. They broke into the penalty area several times and created scoring opportunities, but they just fell short of scoring.

After all, if the defense of a team like New Zealand could be penetrated so easily, it wouldn't be an Olympic-level team.

New Zealand's No. 8 was complaining on the field. After Wang Chu passed him with a bicycle kick, he even threw up his hands:

No, he was kicking me.

I still have 10 players who can be broken through by you!
Always breaking through from my side? ?
Mani!

"It's you who did it!"

“There is no sympathy in the stadium.”

Jiang Ming is now standing on the runway to watch, this is exactly the effect he wants!
The security guard was about to stop him, but when he saw Sean and two beauties in team doctor uniforms coming up, and there were foreign faces, he didn't stop them, but just asked them to sit down:

"Be careful, don't get too close to the field, you might get hit by the ball."

"It's okay, we can just watch it here!"

Sean was so excited when he watched it, because American football was not good either, so he simply supported Chinese football. And now he finally understood what Jiang Ming muttered to the players during the halftime break!

"This scene seems familiar!"

Sean patted Jiang Ming on the shoulder. This guy is so smart!

"I learned it from McMillan."

Jiang Ming smiled slyly. When the Trail Blazers played against the Celtics in the regular season, wasn't it McMillan who asked Jiang Ming to find a breakthrough for Garnett and then helped the Trail Blazers to reverse and defeat the Celtics!

This trick is really useful.

The main reason is that other head coaches can’t think of it, and it’s useless even if they do. There are not so many good team doctors who can estimate the physical condition of the players based on their appearance on the field!

They will kill you when you are sick. The competition field is like a battlefield, and there will be even less sympathy when you represent the motherland.

"Dong Fangzhuo, charge for me!!!"
