What? The trainer is warming up.

A group of seasoned veterans in the field of sports medicine, completely abandoning their usual composure and dignified demeanor, swarmed around Qin Yu. Their eyes gleamed with undisguised excitement and eagerness, their gazes fixed on Qin Yu, desperately trying to extract all his secrets.

"Are you Qin? I've heard of you before, but I didn't expect you to be so young. Did you really heal Oden's injury?"

Once the first person spoke, the others couldn't help but chime in, and a barrage of questions followed.

"Qin, how did you do that? Was it through that 'Traditional Chinese Medicine'?"

"Idiot, don't you even know 'Traditional Chinese Medicine'? It's an ancient medical system of China, said to be very mysterious and miraculous. Qin, I've heard you have a set of amazing rehabilitation training techniques. Could you tell us about them so we can study them properly?"

"Qin, I am Dr. XX, specializing in sports injury rehabilitation. I am very interested in your 'Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment' and hope you can cooperate with us..."

A group of people didn't really care who Qin Yu was, and they despised "traditional Chinese medicine" from the bottom of their hearts. What really made them fanatical was that Qin Yu had healed Oden's severe patellar fracture in such a short time, and the technological principles behind it that could potentially revolutionize the industry!

Qin Yu glared at Oden, who had completely thrust him into the spotlight, and said with a straight face, "Sorry, no comment."

A group of people did not give up and were still trying to persuade Qin Yu.

"This is a groundbreaking discovery that will shake the global medical community! Publishing it could save countless patients and benefit all of humanity!"

"Qin, you can't be so selfish. As long as you're willing to share with us, we can work together to benefit all of humanity."

"Not only that, I think you even have a chance to compete for the Nobel Prize in Medicine. Just imagine, you would become the first Chinese person to win the Nobel Prize in Medicine. Wealth, status, and honor—what an honor that would be!"

Listening to the group's high-sounding advice, Qin Yu just wanted to roll his eyes.

Am I that great? Aren't I afraid of being sliced ​​up?

I'm not a saint, and I'm not supposed to benefit all of humanity... Look at you all, so capable, why don't you go yourselves?

A bunch of idiots!

As for being the "first Chinese Nobel laureate in Medicine," it is indeed tempting, but it's not something I absolutely need.

He clearly remembered that a few years later, Ms. Tu Youyou would win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for "discovering artemisinin and pioneering a new treatment for malaria, saving the lives of millions of people around the world," truly saving millions of people worldwide, which would be a well-deserved honor.

My abilities are nowhere near those of Ms. Tu Youyou. My points aren't even enough for me, let alone to benefit all of humanity.

"Sorry, I'm just a trainer, I don't have that much skill." Qin Yu waved his hand, his tone indifferent. "As for traditional Chinese medicine, it's not a secret. There are countless famous Chinese medicine practitioners in China who are more skilled than me. If you're interested, you can learn it yourselves."

Uh......

The group of people looked at each other, their faces filled with helplessness and astonishment.

This kid is completely impervious to reason!

They tried to persuade him further, but Qin Yu had already lost his patience and turned to walk out the door.

"Wait! Qin!"

An elderly white man with gray hair and gold-rimmed glasses quickly caught up with Qin Yu, revealing what he thought was a sincere smile, and said, "Mr. Qin, we sincerely admire your medical skills and cordially invite you to join the Pioneer Medical Team. Name your price!"

The others echoed this sentiment, suggesting that they first bring Qin Yu into the team and then gradually persuade him, eventually getting what they wanted out of him.

Qin Yu's face instantly darkened: "I have no interest in being a veterinarian."

These words are harsh, but Qin Yu wasn't just making baseless accusations—in the NBA circle, the Trail Blazers' medical team's infamous reputation as "veterinarians" was already widespread.

There was a precedent as early as the 70s when Bill Walton was misdiagnosed by this group of "veterinarians".

In 1977, Bill Walton led the Trail Blazers to the championship and was named Finals MVP. Afterwards, he suffered stress fractures multiple times, but the Trail Blazers' team doctor misdiagnosed them as ordinary soreness and used painkillers to cover it up for a long time, forcing him to play with his injuries, which led to the aggravation of his injuries.

Later, Walton publicly sued the team's medical staff (which was unprecedented in the NBA), and the Trail Blazers' notorious reputation as "veterinarians" began from there.

In addition, Oden is another example!

Even though the Trail Blazers' medical team is no longer the same group that "misdiagnosed" Bill Walton, and Oden's problem isn't entirely the medical team's fault, it's impossible for them to bear no responsibility. They can't shake off the stigma of being "veterinarians."

Qin Yu would avoid such a medical team like the plague; how could he possibly join one?

After saying that, Qin Yu left without looking back, leaving behind only the old man with a livid face and a group of people with equally grim expressions.

......

Oden was soon cleared to participate in full team practice, which means he will be able to return to the court soon.

At this point, there was still more than a week until All-Star Weekend!

The team had not disclosed Oden's recovery status before, but now that he is about to return, there is no need to keep it a secret any longer.

The news spread like wildfire.

"What? Oden can participate in full practice? Did I hear that right? Wasn't he out for the season?"

"Really! I heard he's already participated in team practices and is performing exceptionally well. He might return after the All-Star Weekend."

"This is impossible! What kind of veterinarians do the Trail Blazers? Even if the Suns' miracle doctor came, he couldn't have recovered Oden this quickly. Absolutely impossible!"

"It has nothing to do with the Trail Blazers' medical team. It's said that it was a trainer named Qin Yu who helped Oden recover at an almost miraculous speed, which amazed the Trail Blazers' medical team."

This news was explosive and sparked heated discussions. People exclaimed that it was impossible, how could someone return to work only a month after kneecap fracture surgery?

Meanwhile, some NBA teams also learned of the news.

......

Salt Lake City, the Jazz's training facility.

Head coach Jerry Sloan, dressed in a sharp suit, was discussing the team's tactical system and player rotation with assistant coach Tyrone Corbin.

At that moment, assistant coach Phil Jensen strode over, his expression strange, and said, "Coach Sloan, I just heard some news."

"What news?" Sloan asked without looking up.

"The Trail Blazers' Greg Oden has been cleared to participate in full practice and is expected to return after the All-Star break," Phil Johnson said in a low voice. "I know it sounds incredible, but we're only one game ahead of the Trail Blazers right now, and if the news is true, I think we need to prepare in advance."

Who is going to make a comeback?

Coach Sloan paused for a moment, then looked up at Phil Jensen: "Say it again, who's coming back after the All-Star Weekend?"

Phil Jensen replied, "Greg Oden."

puff!

Upon hearing this, Coach Sloan laughed out loud, his eyes full of sarcasm: "Is it another misdiagnosis by those veterinarians on the Trail Blazers? Just like Bill Walton back in the day."

Phil Jensen's lips twitched, and he continued, "This sounds absurd. But there's something even more absurd. Apparently, this has nothing to do with the Trail Blazers' medical team. Oden was able to recover so quickly with the help of a trainer named Qin Yu."

"It's fake, it must be fake!"

Coach Sloan didn't believe it at all.

Is this guy a trainer or a miracle doctor? He's that awesome!

......

Charlotte, the Hornets.

In his office, team lead assistant coach Tim Floyd was studying the next opponent when the phone suddenly rang.

Picking up the phone, Tim Floyd sat up straight: "Boss! What's up? What, Greg Oden is coming back? Wait, where did this news come from? And who is this Qin Yu... Sorry, please speak slowly, my brain is a little foggy."

The call was from the team's general manager, Jeff Ball, who told him that Oden of the Trail Blazers was making a quick comeback and asked him to investigate a man named Qin Yu.

Jeff Ball patiently repeated it again.

Even after listening to it twice, Tim Floyd still found it absurd. Where did this ridiculous news come from? How could the boss believe it?

However, he still agreed: "Okay, I will check this matter and the information on that person named Qin Yu."

After hanging up the phone, Tim Floyd shook his head and chuckled.

A few days ago, Hornets star Chris Paul was diving to save a ball during a game against the Chicago Bulls when he went out of bounds and his left knee crashed hard into a sideline camera.

After the game, an MRI scan revealed a partial tear of the lateral meniscus in his left knee, and he is expected to be sidelined for 4-7 weeks.

At this crucial juncture in the season, Paul suffered a serious injury, which is a huge blow to the team and may even cause them to miss the playoffs.

Jeff Ball is not only the team's general manager but also the team's head coach. Tim Floyd thinks that Boos may be under too much pressure and is desperately seeking help. He immediately dismissed the news as fake, and as for that trainer Qin Yu, he had never even heard of him.

Outsiders dismissed it as a rumor and a joke, but those within the Trail Blazers team knew very well that it was not a rumor, but a fact.

For a time, Qin Yu became the focus of attention within the team.
