NBA: The best team doctor in history

Chapter 96: All members prepare for the Cavaliers, Fang Xiaotong comes to the Trail Blazers

Jiang Ming, who had just returned to the team, was not idle at all. He went to see Roy's recovery status as soon as possible.

Because now the top priority is to pursue results. Why did we call these three people here? Isn’t it to work together to achieve results?
Didn’t you see that the management quickly announced that the three new players who have joined the team will appear on the roster for the game against the Cavaliers tonight, which means they can play at any time!
The most important thing to achieve good results is that the Trail Blazers' young trident must be there.

If they really rely on White Chocolate and Maggette, then what's the difference between them and the former Kings and the current Clippers?
The scene is beautiful, but it won’t go far.

The main thing is that we are playing against the Cavaliers, who are ranked first in the Eastern Conference tonight. It will be very difficult to win without Roy's offensive firepower.

And now the Trail Blazers’ goal is to win every game, no matter if he’s the little emperor or Peter Pan!
Although the management and coaching staff did not ask and did not dare to ask, after all, if the injury issue is pushed forward, and if the player plays with an injury and gets injured again, the people who pushed forward will definitely have to share some of the blame.

Therefore, we should completely listen to the advice of the team medical team. No one else dares to mention it unless the team doctor says that we can return.

But Jiang Ming took the initiative to mention it to Larry Miller and others:
"I'll go take a look. If everything is OK, we can announce his return for tonight's game."

As if he had predicted that Jiang Ming would allow him to play after he came back today, when Jiang Ming saw Roy, he was warming up with his teammates. However, he naturally couldn't do the warm-up with the same intensity as his teammates. He was doing the warm-up exercises taught by Jiang Ming in a very methodical manner.

He practiced Ba Duan Jin very well, and even practiced Wu Qin Xi like a Down syndrome patient with uncoordinated limbs.

Jiang Ming smiled, shook his head and shouted:

"Hey, Roy, stop doing that. It's too ugly. Come here. Let me check you out."

"Uh! Come on!"

After seeing Jiang Ming appear, Roy ran faster than anyone else. He only had the chance to play against James twice this season. Today he finally had the opportunity to face LeBron James at home, and he really didn't want to miss it.

The main thing is that his knees and ankles feel very good now, better than last season. After following Robert's advice and gripping the ground with his toes, his landing method has also changed completely.

All that's left is to play a high-intensity game to see if the pain will go away.

Seeing Roy being called away, head coach McMillan became even more excited and had already begun to arrange tactics after Roy's return off the court:

"White Chocolate controls the dribbling, Roy is the main attacker, Maggette is the secondary attacker on the wing, Aldridge will post up whenever he gets a chance, and Oden is waiting in the paint for a rebound!"

The two "newcomers" will directly start tonight, so the tactics are also very simple. The joining of newcomers requires such a running-in process.

In fact, Maggette and White Chocolate are both veteran players, and White Chocolate is a championship defender, so McMillan was completely relieved to add them to the starting lineup.

After Blake and Big White return, the Trail Blazers' lineup strength and depth will be visibly better!
White Chocolate and Maggette said in unison:

"Okay, we'll go all out tonight and win first place in the Eastern Conference as a token of our loyalty!"

"Hey, sure. Anyway, the most comfortable physical therapy is waiting for you after the game!" James Jones was not angry at being replaced as the starting small forward. Everything was for winning.

He is a baby-faced shooter, so it would be difficult for him to charge into battle. The main reason is that the forwards in the league are all devilish players, like Artest and Pierce who he faced before, who were completely defeated in both offense and defense.

If Maggette hadn't come, he would have been scored 40 points by James tonight.

But when he was asked to be the sixth man, he became even more excited.

Oden also showed White Chocolate the plaster on his knee:
"Have you seen this? Put it on after a game. It's cool and your knees won't be sore the next day. I kind of miss the days when I had knee pain every day."

White chocolate:

"Don't worry, little brother, just wait for my cake!"

The teaching assistant joked to White Chocolate:
"Tonight, I see you play for the first time in a Trail Blazers uniform!"

Jiang Ming has taken Roy to the infirmary to check his pulse. A person has nine orifices, five internal organs and twelve joints, all of which are connected to qi. Roy's breathing is very stable, indicating that there is no problem with his internal organs.

I looked at the tongue coating again. It was light red and moist, and there were no obvious teeth marks on the tongue. This was the most normal state.

Finally, of course, he was asked to perform some basic reaction movements to judge knee and ankle injuries.

Roy didn't show any pain or discomfort, which means there was no damage to his joints or fascia.

The effusion has completely disappeared, and all the effects of the last injury have been cured!

Roy even said directly:

"Doctor Jiang, I felt like all the pain was removed when you inserted those needles. Plus, I haven't exercised for the past two weeks, so how could it hurt again? Don't be too comfortable!"

In fact, Roy was very lucky this time, as it happened to be the All-Star Weekend. He had to rest due to injury, and he had another week of rest during the All-Star Weekend. He also didn't have to participate in the All-Star Game because of his injury, so he recovered quickly.

It's like taking a two-week vacation during the regular season.

But this could also be a big break, so Jiang Ming also reminded Roy:
"Don't be too aggressive during the night game. Take it step by step. Play at full strength in the fourth quarter. Got it?"

Roy understood Jiang Ming's meaning and said with a smile:

"Of course. At the beginning, I'll dribble the ball for White Chocolate and play more with Brother Maggette. I just need to find my game form."

"Yes, that's enough. You can come back."

"Thank you Director Jiang!"

"Stop nightclubs, stay away from cigarettes and alcohol, eat less snacks, and get more sleep!"

Roy hugged Jiang Ming excitedly, which made Jiang Muyan beside him giggle.

However, in order to prevent Roy from suffering a second injury, Jiang Ming went to head coach McMillan and suggested a 5V5 or 4V4 confrontation training match in the afternoon to help Roy find the feeling of the game and adapt to the intensity.

After all, I haven't played a game for two weeks.

McMillan:

"That's exactly what I meant. The three new players also need to adapt to our team's tactics. Leave it to me! Thank you for your treatment of our players."

"As you should. Coach, you should also take some rest. Sit down and rest more. Why do I feel like your legs are not stable?"

Jiang Ming actually wanted to say it several times, and McMillan seemed to have problems with his walking posture several times, but when he asked about it, he said there was no problem and he didn't need treatment.

So this time he reminded McMillan not to stand on the sidelines for too long during each game, which might improve his easily fatigued calves.

"It's okay. I'm too fat, so my feet get sore easily. I'll go lose weight during the off-season. Then I'll ask Director Jiang to prescribe some weight-loss pills."

"That's fine. Indeed, being too fat can easily cause too much strain on the ankles. Head coach, you should lose some weight."

"Okay, I'll be the referee for the training match this afternoon and run with them."

"Um, I suggest you get more rest. You still have to stand and command at night."

The Trail Blazers were amazed by Jiang Ming's attitude as the person in charge of the entire team. This is what a medical director should be like. Look at Jensen and Thomas Reese before, they were not that responsible.

The management is already considering whether to let Jiang Ming accompany the team in every away game in the future. That’s so reliable!
Many people within the Trail Blazers secretly sighed that the young team doctor was the best. With him following them from time to time, the whole team felt much more "safe".

The main thing is that he really knows how to do it. Being bored is either their own problem or that of their relatives and friends.

From minor illnesses like colds to major ones like tumors, Jiang Ming can give them the most accurate advice and answers. He is like a walking small hospital.

If he really opened a clinic in Portland, with his current popularity, he would definitely have a lot of patients coming here. "Son, Fang Xiaotong is almost at the airport. Are you free to pick her up?"

"what?"

In the afternoon, when Jiang Ming went to Big White Bear Joel's house to remove his plaster, his mother Li Yang called, and for the first time Jiang Ming felt overwhelmed.

Because he originally wanted to watch Roy's training game in the afternoon, but the big white bear popped up and said that he wanted to watch the Cavaliers play against the Trail Blazers. In fact, he wanted to watch the little emperor play live, but didn't want to wear the plaster, so he asked Jiang Ming if he could take it off.

Jiang Ming saw that the time was almost up, so he agreed and rushed over immediately.

Unexpectedly, when we were halfway through dismantling the building, something extremely important came up, and all the things happened at the same time.

Jiang Ming, who had originally planned to teach Big White Bear some restorative physical therapy exercises for his right foot after removing the plaster, had to give up for the time being.

"I'm going to go out for a while. Ask your agent or family to help you go to the box to watch the game tonight. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Joel saw that Jiang Ming seemed to have something important to say, mainly because he spoke Chinese. In their opinion, Jiang Ming's speaking Chinese must be a big deal, so he quickly said:
"Director Jiang, please go quickly. I'm fine here. Don't worry, Doctor Sean is here."

"Okay, then be careful and see you at the game tonight."

Jiang Ming picked up his car keys and rushed to the airport.

It’s not that I can’t ask someone else to answer the phone, but my mom called in person, and she’s my dad’s subordinate.

The most important thing is that she is from China, which is equivalent to someone coming from your hometown. No matter how busy you are, you have to go and pick her up in person. The main reason is that my mother said on the phone that she is a little girl, so Jiang Ming should be more sensible.

Jiang Ming naturally knew what his mother meant.
After all, I have read the information they sent me, and my parents have indeed given me the best nurse!

airport.

Jiang Ming immediately recognized Fang Xiaotong, who was carrying a large suitcase and the iconic Chinese snakeskin bag.

She is about 165cm tall, wearing a white baseball cap and a light pink windbreaker. She has a small face, bright black eyes and a thin figure. At first glance, she is dressed like a Chinese girl. In Jiang Ming's opinion, she looks a bit fresh.

Jiang Ming quickly stepped forward to carry her things:
"Hi, Fang Xiaotong?"

"Jiang Ming!" Fang Xiaotong naturally recognized Jiang Ming at a glance when he approached, and exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, welcome to Portland. Let me take you to the apartment first."

"Wow, is this true? You're coming to pick me up in person?"

Fang Xiaotong seemed a bit familiar with the guy. After the excitement of recognizing Jiang Ming, she quickly came up to him and asked.

"Of course, the people from Dongli Hospital are not our own. Come on, carry my bag too."

Jiang Ming smiled and glanced at the cute little girl. After looking at her closely, he found that she had a little baby fat on her cheeks. Her eyes were pure and charming with light makeup. She was indeed a beauty, the cute and pure type. (Picture)

"Oh~ Thank you. I'll carry the bag myself. We have to hurry. We have a home game tonight, right?"

Fang Xiaotong had her hands behind her back, jumping around full of energy, and you couldn't tell at all that she was an assistant chief nurse.

"Huh? You're already in work mode so quickly? No wonder your resume says you're a workaholic. Go back to your apartment and rest first. You need to adjust to the jet lag."

"Well, I'm still young. How about Director Jiang give me a cupping jar or some Chinese medicine? I can recover my vitality right away!"

Seeing that Fang Xiaotong seemed to fully understand him, Jiang Ming smiled and said:

"That won't work. Cupping requires taking off clothes. Chinese medicine can't be prescribed randomly. If it's a female patient, I need to know her menstrual period and so on."

I thought Fang Xiaotong would give up, but she got excited:

"Wow! I didn't expect you to be this kind of Director Jiang. You are already the director but you still don't allow men and women to have sex. Taking off clothes is nothing. With your level, even if the queen comes, she will have to take off everything if she wants to treat you. She will also have to tell you all her medical history."

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, I've gone off topic. Let's go. This is my car."

Seeing that he couldn't win the argument with her, Jiang Ming quickly changed the subject. This girl had a clear and sharp voice, and she would definitely be a live treasure in the office in the future.

Fang Xiaotong didn't stop, and ran to the back door with her white and tender legs, opened it and joked:
"Wow, a second-hand Nissan! Director Jiang Ming, you are just like your father. He doesn't care what car he drives. You know, other directors in our hospital drive BBA, but I don't care. Let's go!"

"Stop talking, work hard, and we'll all buy Porsches by the end of the year."

Jiang Ming thought, which man doesn't want to drive a luxury car? He just hasn't put his mind to it yet.

However, although Fang Xiaotong seemed to be passionate and had no sense of boundaries, she was actually very polite. She took the initiative to sit in the back seat and did not talk about Jiang Ming's life throughout the journey. She asked Jiang Ming to introduce the customs and culture of Portland and the personalities of the players.

It seems like it's all for her own work?
Jiang Ming drove her to the apartment he had rented for her for a year, and then told her that three other people from his department also lived there.

"Great, this makes team building very convenient. We can get midnight snacks right away."

Fang Xiaotong clapped her hands like a seal.

"Yes, but it's best not to go out for a midnight snack. It's not safe in the United States late at night."

"Of course. I'll just stay in my room without you. This is a free America. My parents have taken care of me many times, and so have your parents."

"Okay, then you pack first and take a rest. Tell me if there's anything you need to buy and I'll go to the supermarket to buy it for you before I come back in the evening." Jiang Ming saw Fang Xiaotong had a pile of luggage, so he helped her make the bed and then said he was going to the Rose Garden Arena.

After all, the other things were her personal belongings, so it was not convenient for Jiang Ming to sort them out together.

"It's okay, let's go together. I came here today just to catch the game. Let's go, I'll come back in the evening and sort it out slowly."

Fang Xiaotong was determined to get to know the working environment first, so Jiang Ming did not stop her. He bought her a bottle of energy drink and got into the car again.

Then, from the moment Fang Xiaotong got off the car in the basement garage of the Rose Garden Arena, people kept looking at Jiang Ming strangely, and even Channing Frye, who met him by chance, came to say "congratulations".

"Congratulations, you're still hanging around when the game is almost over."

"Aren't you here to welcome your new employee?"

“Not an employee, but an exchange student!”

"Isn't this different? Could it be that he is not from your country?"

"You boy!"

"Girl, please be nice to our Director Jiang. He may have a bad temper, but he is definitely a good person!"

Now Fang Xiaotong blushed. When she really met this 2-meter tall man, she shrank behind Jiang Ming and didn't dare to communicate in English.

After arriving at the medical department, Jiang Muyan just blinked:

"Hey, Jiang Ming, you said there was an exchange student coming, but you didn't say she was this pretty."

When Jiang Ming thought she was going to be jealous, she quickly hugged Fang Xiaotong:
"Come on, sister, what's your name? Finally, there's another girl in our department!"

Thoughts:

Finally a woman came, otherwise she really couldn’t handle Jiang Ming alone!
