NBA: The best team doctor in history

Chapter 97 97: Beat LeBron James, who will talk about the Trail Blazers’ retirement home again?

In fact, Fang Xiaotong was very agile. After Jiang Muyan introduced her to the department environment and the location of the equipment, she basically remembered it.

He also remembers the locations of all the offices and medical equipment in the Trail Blazers' backstage area.

Jiang Muyan liked this more and more. In fact, Jiang Ming's team has always lacked a real nurse, so when she heard that Fang Xiaotong was a nursing major and was even the deputy chief nurse, she immediately looked at her with new eyes.

Small body but big energy!
“Let’s give injections to the players together from now on!”

"Okay, Sister Muyan."

Fang Xiaotong is still a little awkward in speaking English, but she taught herself Korean. Under the influence of the Korean wave, she naturally practiced Korean through Korean dramas. This sentence was directly in Korean, which made the two little sisters become friends immediately.

If it weren't for the fact that Fang Xiaotong had just arrived, Jiang Muyan would have wanted to just say, "Let's raid the director's room together in the evening."

She really wanted to see Jiang Ming begging for mercy!

You can't, a PhD in orthopedics, keep begging for mercy in front of a young graduate student.

7pm.

Jiang Ming and all the medical department members put on suits and sat behind the coaching staff to serve as on-site team doctors. Thomas Reese originally wanted to watch the game in the front row, but seeing that Jiang Ming's team only had five people, he simply went to the management's permanent box.

Jensen has been watching the game in the box. He still has some dignity to save. If he goes downstairs to watch the game, he will be scolded.

However, he was still embarrassed in the box today, because there was also Big White Bear in the box who came to watch the game for the first time after suffering a stress fracture. The two of them did not say hello to each other and deliberately avoided each other, one on the far left and the other on the far right.

Joel couldn't help but complain when Thomas Reese came over:
"If I had put on the cast earlier, maybe I could be on the court and help the team now."

Thomas Reese quickly signaled him to lower his voice and whispered:

"It was only a three-day delay, not that serious. Now I just need to recover well."

Today, the Rose Garden was packed with Trail Blazers fans.

It’s not entirely because of the arrival of the Eastern Conference’s little emperor, but because this is the first game after the arrival of the Trail Blazers’ new players and it is also the day when Roy returns.

Coupled with the fact that the Emperor boasted during the All-Star Weekend that he would make a comeback and win the championship this season, Trail Blazers fans are very eager to see how the Trail Blazers will perform against last season's runner-up!
So there are still a lot of black fans questioning the Trail Blazers at the scene.

"Recruiting two middle-aged people, is Pioneer a nursing home?"

"And there's a 24-year-old Spanish rookie defender. What's the point?"

"It's definitely the Pioneer Nursing Home. As for the Youth Storm, they promised that White Chocolate would be the first to appear, right?"

"Jack the Great has been traded, so White Chocolate will definitely be the starter. Both point guards from the Development League have been traded. I guess they will just rotate after Blake recovers."

"Indeed, White Chocolate has become a marginal figure in the Heat. How can he be useful? He has no defense at all!"

"I'm still looking forward to Maggette. After all, there's no bad player who averages 20+ points per game."

"He is definitely a good helper for Roy, but he is also known for his glass man attributes. I hope he doesn't get crushed by LeBron in the first game."

"Yeah, even though he averages 20 points per game, he can't compare to the Little Emperor. It's bad luck that he met the Little Emperor in his debut."

"Hahahahahaha, the Trail Blazers really don't know how to choose a day. It's a losing game, letting the two new players play."

"Maybe he will be the starter. White Chocolate is rumored to be retiring soon."

"Can Fernandez adapt to the NBA? Not everyone is Ginobili and Parker."

"There's no one available for the Pioneer."

“Trust the process.”

"Trust Director Jiang. I heard that he was involved in the decision-making, which means that these three players were selected by him!"

"Jiang Ming is not bad, he is a good doctor!"

"That's right, the Trail Blazers are no longer a veterinary team. We are purely discussing the lineup."

"It can only be said that everyone has their own expertise. Let a doctor select players. What good players can he choose?"

"I don't agree with what you said!"

The scene and the forum were buzzing with activity, and both sides' starting players had already finished their warm-ups and were on the field.

As commentator Jeff Van Gundy said:

"See you on the field!"

"My god, James' muscles are bigger than Maggette's."

After seeing LeBron on the scene, Jiang Ming thought to himself that it was no wonder this guy had so few injuries, his whole body was covered with a lot of muscles and he protected his body very well.

And their lineup is really good, tall and big.

Guards Shannon Brown + Larry Hughes.

Forwards James + Varejao.

The inside big Z is Zydrunas Ilgauskas.

With all the height, talent and tonnage, it's no wonder they made it to the finals last year.

McMillan of the Trail Blazers was also very bold and directly sent two new players to start.

Point guard white chocolate.

Roy
Small forward Maggette.

Power forward Aldridge.

Center Oden.

According to the explanation:
"It looks very impressive, but these five people have not yet worked together."

"It's a training game. We're going to lose against the Cavaliers anyway, so we might as well practice the lineup. I think this is what the Trail Blazers are thinking."

"Yeah, since we're going to lose, we might as well adjust the lineup. After all, the point guard who replaced Blake in the starting lineup has been traded away, so we can only play White Chocolate."

"Yeah, white chocolate. Maybe the Spanish guard can double as point guard?"

"That's unlikely, isn't it?"

"Well, the Trail Blazers have a young roster anyway, so it won't be surprising whoever plays."

Of course, there are also commentators and reporters who said that with White Chocolate there is no need for adjustment, he can always find open positions.

But after the game really started, I found that the Trail Blazers were really well organized. In fact, White Chocolate was not so showy after playing for the Heat. He dribbled the ball steadily to the frontcourt and passed the ball according to the tactics shouted by the coach or Roy next to him.

I didn't score a single goal.

And Roy didn't attack either.

He followed the advice of Jiang Ming and the coaching staff, and from the beginning he distracted the attention of Larry Hughes on the opposite side, while actually playing pick-and-roll with Maggette.

Maggette, who had received physical therapy from Jiang Ming, was full of energy. He knew he could not beat James, but he could still beat the thinner Larry Hughes.

In the first three rounds, he played against Larry Hughes out of position and scored two goals.

In the fourth round, James did not let Roy set a pick-and-roll so easily. He pushed in front of Maggette with a violent squeeze, and Maggette made a mistake when he received the ball.

Shannon Brown, who had amazing jumping ability, rushed forward with the ball. Oden and Aldridge were already quite fast in pursuit and defense.

But at this time, Valanciunas also set a moving pick-and-roll, allowing Shannon Brown to easily make a one-handed slam dunk.

"Damn it, referee, this is our home court!"

Jiang Ming couldn't help but stand up and shouted along with the coaching staff, frightening Fang Xiaotong who was sitting next to him and pulling at Jiang Ming's clothes:
"Jiang Ming, sit down. You are the team doctor."

Jiang Ming smiled at her:
"It's okay, we are putting pressure on the referee. This is a misjudgment."

But it seemed like they were used to the Cavaliers' mobile pick-and-roll. After Aldridge missed the mid-range shot, James completely controlled the ball for the Cavaliers. Varejao didn't control his feet cleanly and moved sideways to block Maggette outside. When Maggette's knees hit each other, he just lifted his legs slightly in pain.

But the result was that James directly attacked Aldridge and scored a layup with his signature bulldozer technique!

"Come on, Roy!"

This also caused the Trail Blazers to change their tactics during the first timeout, with Roy and Maggette taking turns attacking James.

Don’t you like to attack and defend at the same time? Then I will consume you.

The defensive coach also told Aldridge to defend in the interior like Oden, just like the Spurs defended James last year, covering the interior.

Jiang Ming said to Roy:

"I noticed you practiced Ba Duan Jin before the game. Pay attention to your landing. If you want to fight, just go all out. This way you won't be easily injured."

"OK, leave it to me!"

The situation changed suddenly in the second half of the first quarter. After White Chocolate came off the bench for a rest, Roy took the lead, and with Maggette and James Jones on the wings, Roy suddenly opened up.

First, he scored a tough goal thanks to Shannon Brown.

He also pulled up to shoot towards Big Z when the opponent switched defense, showing the style of the Yellow Mamba.

James seemed to think of his arch-rival Kobe, and after the score was tied, he quickly signaled a switch of defense and defended Roy.

As a shooting guard, how could Roy be afraid of any defender?

If he wants to become a superstar, he must be able to blast 1v1 without any distinction!

Before the game, the coaching staff had already analyzed James' playing style for him. Although he is strong and fast, his speed is not fast, and his defense is mostly reflected in chasing defense.

So Roy directly chose to show off LeBron!
Facing LeBron's one-on-one defense, he didn't even call for a pick-and-roll. He dribbled the ball between his legs, changed direction, pulled back, and made a pull-up jump shot. Go!

James' jump to block was obviously a beat late!
Although Roy's operation amazed the fans at the scene, Roy's fans really took a breath of cold air.
It looks like his knee is painful. Is Roy going to play like this just after he returned from injury to his knee and ankle?
That's how he played! In the next round, Roy used all of his tricks, tricked James, broke into the paint to attract Varejao's help defense, and actually passed the ball to Aldridge, who easily scored with a hook shot!
"What a ball!"

"Roy feels like he has never had a knee injury!"

"Explosive, fastest first step, highest pull-up shot point!"

The management who were watching the game in the box upstairs couldn't help but marvel at it.

The big white bear said expectantly:

"It's really different to have Dr. Jiang Ming do physical therapy. He can also work as a trainer and play basketball with Roy."

Bert asked curiously:
"Really? You're teaching me how to play basketball? Are you that good?"

The white bear laughed and said:
"I'm not teaching you how to play basketball. I'm teaching Roy how to play without getting hurt and still be very strong. He also emphasized the landing posture and other things to me. It's just that my bones haven't fully grown yet, otherwise I would have started practicing as soon as possible."

Larry Miller was also pleased to see the satisfied looks of the management.

"We certainly know the contribution of Director Jiang. In time, our Trail Blazers team doctor will definitely be checked by the league."

McGowan asked:
"What?"

Larry:

"The physical therapy effect of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department is so strong that the Trail Blazers have no more injuries. Not to mention the Anti-Doping League, the physical therapy team of the NBA League has to form a team to come and observe."

"Hahahaha, if that's the case it would be perfect. We, the pioneers, will have a day to be proud of ourselves!"

At this time, former boss Larry Weinberg also came over with a bottle of red wine and laughed:

"I'm looking forward to seeing this roster fully healthy. It's been a long time since our Trail Blazers had a fully healthy team, don't you think, Jensen?"

This made Jensen, who had been silent, smile awkwardly and respond:
"Yes."

But he also added in a good mood:
"The roster should be complete before the end of the regular season, and Mr. Larry Weinberg will be able to see how strong the complete Trail Blazers are!"

Jensen was actually very excited watching in the box. It had been so many years and it was rare to see a Trail Blazer who was so capable of charging.

Mainly, he also heard that Jiang Ming participated in the selection of these three new players, which means that Jensen himself should indeed step down as the chief.

Although he is the chief team doctor, he still doesn't know much about basketball after all these years. He only knows the player's injury situation and whether it can be cured.

But he will not and dare not do what Jiang Ming does, who can choose actions that suit his team.

Jiang Ming did it, and he did it very well. Bai Qiao and Maggette had a good chemistry on the court with the original Trail Blazers players. They were mainly the type of players that the Trail Blazers had lacked before, so it felt like a seamless connection.

joke.

Now that we are tied with the Cavaliers, who have the best record in the Eastern Conference, what else do we need?

This is the first game for the Trail Blazers to get back together.

It’s no wonder that Big White Bear wants to make a comeback so much. How strong will the Trail Blazers’ lineup be after he and Blake return?

So Jensen ignored his former boss's subsequent sarcasm that he should be in charge of medical care and so on, and just said:
"I am indeed old, and it would be nice for an old man to be in charge of medical equipment."

In the second quarter, it was James who got anxious first.

After defending Roy poorly, he threw Roy to Larry Hughes to defend and focused on offense.

But what the Trail Blazers were waiting for him was a twin tower inside.

Although Aldridge will be pushed aside by James after shrinking the inside line, there is still Oden waiting below.

So James had two shots blocked by Oden in the second quarter.

After recovering from his uneven legs, Oden jumped with all his strength several times to keep the Blazers' inside defense safe.

So Big Z and Varejao were forced to use their mid-range shooting skills that they would only use in the playoffs.

From the looks of it, it seemed like the Trail Blazers were the team that made it to the finals last year.

Except for James who rushed in, the other players of the Cavaliers played too softly.

It's not their fault. Oden the Great is known as the strongest center successor in the new century. Coupled with Aldridge who has long arms and legs, the Cavaliers really don't want to break through.

James wanted to break through with his usual right hand, but he was just an iron-headed guy. It was not easy for him to break through Maggette, and there were more obstacles later.

This also led to the Cavaliers' disastrous defeat in the second half, falling behind by 9 points in the third quarter!
Although the Trail Blazers' offense did not have many particularly effective tactics after White Chocolate's arrangement, and they played more one-on-ones, at least it was not chaotic.

And the inside line is dominant.

Ade can back up Varejao, but Varejao can't back up Ade.

Oden can use his speed to run back to Big Z and complete an alley-oop, and Big Z can only watch.

After this back and forth, it seems normal to be pulled apart.

These three quarters of the game also made the Trail Blazers fans very excited. Many fans also noticed that the medical director Jiang Ming, who came to ask about the players' conditions during every timeout, as well as the two beautiful assistants and a handsome white doctor next to him.

"It seems that Jiang Ming has made great contributions!"

"Of course it must be. Roy scored 3 points in 18 quarters. Isn't this Jiang Ming's credit?"

"This team doctor is really good. Oden is now free of injuries and even White Chocolate seems to be running faster."

"McGette is not bad. They say his lower body is unstable, but now it seems he can stop James!"

"There are very few players in the league who can only take one step back after James exerts his strength, and Maggette is one of them!"

"By the way, why is there a Chinese girl? So cute!"

"I just gave her a close-up. She looks so pretty even in a suit. She's petite and pretty. Is this Jiang Ming's new nurse?"

"It's probably true! Handsome and beautiful team doctors, but I won't criticize them, haha."

“I can’t spray either!”

"I know this beauty. She took care of my grandfather at the Imperial Capital Dongli Hospital. She's a very responsible nurse, and she speaks very nicely!"

"Fang Xiaotong, she's my college classmate. I didn't expect she would go to the United States."

"It doesn't seem like a job change, but who wouldn't want to work with Jiang Ming?"

"I searched on Baidu and found out that she's Dongli's deputy chief nurse! Awesome!"

"Talented people are attracted to each other. Congratulations to Jiang Ming for adding a new general!"

"I declare this my wife!"

"Then Jiang Muyan is my wife!"

"Don't argue, you are all Jiang Ming's wife! Unless you can surpass Jiang Ming!"

When the discussion on the forum got off track, the Trail Blazers had already launched a mercury-like attack in the fourth quarter.

The turning point was when Roy was replaced by Rudy Fernandez during the break.

Originally, McMillan thought that since they were leading by almost 10 points, they could take some time off, but the main reason was that Roy needed a rest.

So he just let Fernandez defend well and focus on the inside in offense.

As a result, after Fernandez came on the court, he received a pass from White Chocolate in the corner and made an open 3-pointer.

It was another ghostly cut into the paint, grabbed the rebound when Ade missed a mid-range shot, and then dunked it with one hand on the spot.

He dribbled the ball and saw that Devin Brown on the opposite side had not come up, so he raised his hand and made an elegant 3-pointer.

The commentators were all excited: "Flying Rudy! A European who can play basketball!"

This "old show" scored 8 points in a row, and the whole audience was stunned.

What is this?

Even the Cavaliers players and coaching staff didn't recognize this Spaniard and thought he was an Argentine because he looked so much like Ginobili.

It's scary that the European league has produced such a basketball genius.

The score difference suddenly became 15 points, forcing the Cavaliers to call a timeout.

But the timeout was of no use, and McMillan continued to keep Fernandez on the court after returning.

And just replace the white chocolate with Roy.

This lineup was directly terrifying.

Close the game!
A group of talented young people worked directly in the air inside the Cavaliers. Fernandez made an extreme pull-up pass to Oden for a dunk, which broke James' heart.

The Little Emperor tried to assist in defense but was dunked by Oden instead. He simply threw his hands up to indicate that he didn't want to fight anymore.

The Cavaliers resigned and both teams replaced their lineups during garbage time!
104:91
The Trail Blazers defeated the Cavaliers, who are ranked first in the Eastern Conference, by 13 points at home!

James, who was praised before the game for being able to score 40 points against the Trail Blazers, only scored 8 points and 8 rebounds. Is this the team leader?

Not as good as Shannon Brown with 21 points!

The Trail Blazers players teamed up to beat LeBron James. Who will talk about the Trail Blazers' nursing home again?

Jiang Ming was so excited after watching this that he couldn't help but say to his colleagues:

"I really like this Trail Blazers team. They are all young people full of talent. We must help them win the championship!"

(PS: How many people still remember Rudy Fernandez's 4 seconds? That was a real classic. Those who know it are probably old fans.)
The Trail Blazers had all the pieces for the championship back then, except for Roy and Oden. The author will make up for the regret back then!!!
