: Take the lead alone

When Wang Yi saw James' slightly red eyes, he already understood.

He could imagine James' frustration when he returned to the locker room and his teammates checked him. When he talked about how he couldn't play, he was frustrated.

He has been playing for almost 20 years, and his only goal is to surpass Jordan.

As he grew older, he found that it was impossible for him to surpass Jordan's six championship rings.

But at least for every extra championship ring, his historical status can be more stable.

Now that he is ranked second in history, there will be a lot of controversy.

But what if he gets two more rings?

I believe there will be less and less controversy.

But unexpectedly, his journey to pursue rings would be so bumpy.

Every time there are critical moments in the playoffs, there will be hardships of one kind or another.

Originally, Wang Yi grew up this year, which was the best time for him to lead the Lakers to add another championship.

However, the thick eyebrows were injured.

Of course, he was ready for the injury of Thick Eyebrow.

After all, thick eyebrows are glass-like and are often seriously injured. He is used to it.

As long as he and Wang Yi are still there, he will still have confidence.

But he never expected that he would be injured in the end.

Wang Yi was the only one left.

When he learned the news, his psychological defense collapsed instantly.

The so-called collapse of adults is just a moment.

He sat in the corner of the locker room, covering his head with a towel.

Tears gushed out silently in their eyes.

Nothing is more heartbreaking than watching lifelong pursuit slowly turn into bubbles.

The team doctors, personal trainers, and assistant coaches next to them all remained silent and said nothing.

The atmosphere in the entire locker room seemed to have solidified.

These people are with James every day, and they know James's thoughts and psychology best.

A person's lifelong pursuit is suddenly shattered, and no one can stand this feeling.

So they didn't go to comfort me, because you couldn't comfort me at all at this time.

It was not until more than 5 minutes later that James suddenly pulled off the towel on his head, wiped his face, and wiped away the tears from his face.

He raised his head, although his eyes were a little red and swollen, but full of determination.

"I want to go back."

This is the first sentence he said.

The team doctor and the private doctor looked at each other.

They shook their heads almost at the same time, with a little low voice in their voices.

"LeBron, we know you want to play, but you can't play at this level of injury at all. If it's other injuries, you may still be able to grit your teeth, but you can't use any force to pull the groin. And if you force it, you can't do it.

If you play, then this game is probably the last game in your life.”

James nodded: "I know, I'm not ready to retire yet. I mean I have to go back to the sidelines and act as if nothing had happened."

The team doctor and his personal doctor also understood what James meant, and everyone else also understood it.

James means that although he can't play, he can at least sit on the sidelines.

In this way, the Warriors will be afraid at least in the second quarter.

At the same time, teammates will be more confident.

In this way, James came to the sidelines through the player channel.

There seemed to be no loss on his face.

There is no sign of any injury from his walking posture - groin strain is like this. As long as you don’t do the movements and don’t use force, you can still walk normally. Others can’t tell the injury you are suffering at all.

He did not let his opponents and teammates see that he was injured, but he had to tell Wang Yi.

Because after he was injured, Wang Yi was the only thigh of this team, and he must know that he really looks like him.

"Brother, I can't play anymore. You have to carry the team for the rest of the game."

James's voice was a little low.

Wang Yi looked at James.

Although he was mentally prepared, when James was really injured and the burden of the entire team really fell on his shoulders, he still felt a little unexpected.

Just like a child who has never taken responsibility, one day his parents suddenly went out to take charge of everything at home and took care of several brothers.

He would be a little helpless, would he doubt that he could do it?

But Wang Yi was at a loss and lasted only for a few seconds.

Soon he focused on the key points.

He patted James on the arm: "Don't worry, I won't let you lose."

That's the same sentence.

The last time he said this, he did it.

This time, he will still do it.

James nodded, "I believe in you."

Head coach Vogel naturally knew about James' situation.

He came to James and Wang Yi, with a solemn tone and said, "Wang, I believe you already know LeBron's situation. Now the responsibility of the entire team is on your shoulders, so I'm afraid I'll reduce your rest

Time. Is there any problem?"

Wang Yi shook his head: "Coach, I don't need a rest."

His tone was very ordinary when he spoke, but it was a bit surprising when he heard the coach and James.

Wang Yi means to play for 48 minutes!

Although there are many people in NBA history who can play for 48 minutes, such as LeBron, Durant, Westbrook and other physically equine athletes, have played for 48 minutes at their peak.

But it is obvious that Wang Yi's physical fitness is not as good as theirs.

A small body lattice like Wang Yi can be whispered if you can play for 40 minutes in a game.

What's more, it's a 48-minute play.

After all, basketball games are not like football games.

In football games, you can also take a walk on the field.

Run when the ball comes.

And basketball games are fiercely confronting almost every minute and every second on the court.

A playoff with a full intensity like this will consume more physical energy.

Can Wang Yi be able to?

But Wang Yi had already answered with his eyes and expressions.

No problem for 48 minutes.

The second quarter game will soon begin.

Wang Yi appeared again.

Everyone saw that it was Wang Yi and not James who appeared, and they all had a big question mark in their hearts.

But this question mark was quickly dispelled.

Commentary Grant said: "It is obvious that LeBron attacked too fiercely in the first quarter and consumed too much physical energy. So the coach should give him more rest."

Bearded Gartman nodded deeply: "It's true. LeBron is old. He is no longer the king of his youth. He can fly and escape. He is already 38 years old, and he will be 39 in another half a year.

Can you expect a 39-year-old player to play like a young player? Even if he is LeBron, it is impossible."

Everyone who doesn't know the truth thinks that the Lakers are trying to give James a few minutes of rest.

Including Lakers players, too.

Warriors coach Cole set up a policy for the second quarter at this time: "Resolutely double-team Wang Yi and force him to pass the ball. You can let others throw an open position, and you can't give him a chance to take action."

In his opinion, the Lakers are only Wang Yi now.

As long as Wang Yi is strangled to death, the Lakers will be finished.

Although Schroder may be able to jump a few times, it would be a fantasy to rely on him to lead the Lakers to win.

But at this time, Wang Yi, who was standing on the court, silently recited in his mind:
Chapter completed!
