Monty Williams saw the sincere look in Luo Yin's eyes. This was the first time he saw a player who could put the team and fans first.

"But the meniscus is worn out after all."

"This kind of injury requires resting and allowing the damaged meniscus to grow back as soon as possible, so that you can protect your knee and continue playing on the court."

"I still hope you can take a truce and don't risk your career."

Monty Williams offered heartfelt advice.

At this time, the team doctor stood up and said: "The meniscus wear is not a serious injury. I can seal it with an injection. Brandon will not feel any pain. He can still play vigorously on the court and fully recover to full strength." state."

Luo Yin, who was still wondering whether Digu needed to rest, gradually brightened up after hearing these words.

"Coach, I've been in isolation before, and it didn't have any impact on me. I still made it to the NBA, still became the best rookie, and still made the All-Star. I think this time will be no exception."

Monty Williams frowned.

For the team, Luo Yin's existence is indeed crucial. If he really takes a truce, Zhang Jun will be alone on the court and unable to withstand the Lakers' offense, and will inevitably face even more crazy double-teaming and double-teaming by the Lakers. Assist in defense.

Then the Trail Blazers can also declare in advance that they will miss the playoffs.

Monty Williams looked at the team doctor with some embarrassment and said, "Is there really no problem?"

When the other party heard these suspicious words, he immediately opened his eyes and glanced at Monty Williams, "My ancestors practiced medicine to save lives and heal the wounded, and my grandfather was a famous veterinarian in Portland back then. Are you doubting me?"

Monty Williams immediately felt relieved, thinking that Luo Yin's performance in the previous few games was not outstanding, and he was probably greatly affected by injuries. If he really got a shot of closure, he would be able to be active on the court. It's not impossible that the Trail Blazers might be able to make a comeback and win the series.

Luo Yin looked at the two and nodded affirmatively.

........

May 29th.

Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.

Local fans in Los Angeles are already preparing to celebrate the Lakers winning Game 5 and successfully reaching the NBA Finals.

Tickets for tonight's game have also been sold to a new high. All Los Angeles fans want to witness the team reach the NBA Finals again after several years.

Kobe still remembers what O'Neal said after he was driven away. Without him, the Lakers would never win a championship, and he would definitely win another championship trophy before Kobe.

O'Neal has already done the latter sentence, and Kobe wants to prove that the other person's previous sentence is wrong.

Only he knows what it feels like to win the championship quickly after O'Neal leaves, and the Lakers quickly go from a championship-level team to a team that has difficulty even making the playoffs.

Kobe has been in that feeling for a long time, for many years. This is his first chance to prove himself after being stuck in the quagmire, so he will never give up.

"The game begins!"

On the court, Zhang Jun held the ball and wanted to attack, but Luo Yin came over and said: "Man, give me the ball."

Zhang Jun couldn't help but glance at him, and then passed the ball without reservation.

Just when Zhang Jun was about to go over and play a pick-and-roll for Luo Yin, the latter actually raised his hand and shook his head.

Live commentary desk.

Seeing this scene, Barkley couldn't help but said: "Brandon Loyin was a little arrogant tonight. So far in the entire series, Kobe Bryant has been completely unstoppable."

"I really don't know where he got the courage to refuse Zhang Jun's pick-and-roll."

call!

On the court, Luo Yin moved!

He didn't pass Kobe in the first step, nor did he want to pass Kobe directly. Not everyone has Zhang Jun's outstanding ability to accelerate the pass in the first step.

Luo Yin leaned on Kobe to reach the free throw line. From this position, Kobe could not let Luo Yin take another step closer to the penalty area.

Luo Yin holds the ball and turns his back.

boom!

A library!

This back was so powerful that Kobe took a big breath and was still forced to take a step back.

Then Luo Yin turned around and threw high.

This choice of shot surprised Kobe, who didn't even have time to defend.

Uh-huh!

Basketball hits steadily.

"Well done!"

Zhang Jun rushed over and rubbed Luo Yin's head and said excitedly.

This goal also shocked and surprised Kenny Smith and Barkley at the on-site commentary desk.

"Have you noticed that Luo Yin's speed is faster, his physical confrontation is stronger, he jumps higher, and his shooting speed is also faster?"

Buckley nodded and said, "That seems to be the case."

"Luo Yin's physical condition seems to be better than in the previous four games."

"No, it should be better than the entire playoffs."

On the court.

Luo Yin beat Kobe Bryant with a back-up, and hit another jump shot after turning around.

Kobe also found that Luo Yin's jumping height was higher. In the first four games, he could almost easily interfere with Luo Yin's jump shot, but he did not interfere with the opponent's shooting line of sight at all on that shot just now.

The Zen master in the audience frowned when he discovered this, and the chewing gum in his mouth no longer tasted good.

The reason why the Lakers have been able to suppress the Trail Blazers is entirely because the opponent only has Zhang Jun's offensive point. As long as Zhang Jun's offense is suppressed, the Trail Blazers can be defeated. Even if Zhang Jun's offense is not suppressed, the Lakers can't. The team can also occupy a considerable advantage.

But now Luo Yin suddenly breaks out, which is not good news for the Lakers.

Zhang Jun has received a lot of help on the offensive end. He will get enough rest in the first quarter, so that the second and fourth quarters will be in Zhang Jun's rhythm again.

Having played four games with the Trail Blazers, Phil Jackson is very aware of and wary of Zhang Jun's personal ability.

Zhang Jun already has the ability to challenge a team by himself. If he really gets the ball rolling, the Lakers may not be able to hold him down.

"In this series, Kobe has been suppressed by Zhang Jun in terms of personal performance. If it weren't for the best playoff goal of the season, Kobe would have been criticized by the media reporters. His performance on the field was unexpectedly Not as good as a rookie.”

"So, we must press Luo Yin's attack!"

After making up his mind, the Zen Master stood up and whistled toward the court.

Kobe began to concentrate on the matchup with Luo Yin, and he no longer had to worry about the defensive task of double-teaming Zhang Jun.

It was just at this time that Luo Yin suddenly started to play pick-and-roll with Aldridge. He used Kobe's best scoring method, using the pick-and-roll to hit steadily from mid-range.

At the end of the first quarter, thanks to Luo Yin's outstanding performance, the Trail Blazers and Lakers tied at 28:28.

In the second quarter of the game, Zhang Jun led the rotation lineup. He didn't exert much force in the first quarter, but he also had a lot of energy at this time.

Zhang Jun got inside and dunked all of the Lakers' backup big men Ronny Turiaf and Vladimir Radmanovic.

The Lakers had to get Gasol and Bynum in advance to curb Zhang Jun's offense.

And Gasol has to participate in offensive tasks, so Bynum has to be the main defensive frame protector.

boom!

Bynum was dunked by Zhang Junqi again, and this time the dunk knocked him to the floor.

The referee blew the whistle and Zhang Jun had to go to the free throw line. Bynum was desperate.

Throughout the series, he had become accustomed to Zhang Jun's various dunks on him. He couldn't help but think about the Rockets' Yao Ming and the Hornets' Tyson Chandler when they were dunked by Zhang Jun in various ways. something.

"You should be as desperate as me."

Zhang Jun's continuous attacks inside forced the Lakers to start double-teaming him. Coupled with the twin-tower lineup set up by the Lakers, the Trail Blazers' outside shooters once again had the opportunity to bomb.

Channing Fletcher and James Jones jointly contributed 6 three-pointers in the second quarter, directly beating the entire Lakers team to death.

The Trail Blazers also led 60:55 at halftime.

In the third quarter of the game, the Trail Blazers turned away and dominated the game with great momentum.

Luo Yin's sudden outburst caught the Lakers off guard. At this time, the connection between him and Zhang Jun came out again. The two jointly led the Trail Blazers to an 11:4 offensive shock wave.

At the end of the third quarter, the Trail Blazers had taken the lead 90:84.

In the fourth quarter of the game, Zhang Jun's personal performance was staged again. The Lakers decisively used double-team defense, but the result was that the east was not bright and the west was bright.

Zhang Jun, who was double-teamed, frequently passed the ball to Luo Yin and Aldridge. The two also showed a very strong performance tonight, seizing every opportunity for Zhang Jun to pass the ball.

In the final 122:114, the Trail Blazers won the game again.

"The Trail Blazers refused to quit and they won the game at the Lakers' home court."

"Luo Yin broke out in the playoffs, making 12 of 24 shots, 4 of 6 free throws, and scored 30 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists."

"Zhang Jun's performance is still outstanding, with 34 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists."

"Aldridge held the Trail Blazers in the paint tonight with 18 points and 14 rebounds."

"The Trail Blazers' three core combined to score 82 points!"

"This is the highest score scored by three people on the same team since the playoffs this season. The big score now is 2:3!"

"The next competition venue will be moved to Portland!"

"The Trail Blazers still have a chance!"

"The Lakers are in danger!"

After the game, countless reporters and fans went crazy, but only the Los Angeles fans held their heads as if the end of the world was coming.

Next, we return to the home court of the Portland Trail Blazers. If the Lakers lose another game, then it won't matter what their strength is.

In a game, any outcome is possible.

The Lakers might really capsize in the gutter and be eliminated by the Trail Blazers. That would be the most ridiculous thing in the world.

Kobe will once again be nailed to the wall of historical shame.

........

Portland.

Steve Patterson looked at the TV screen and clenched his fists excitedly.

"What a beautiful win!"

"This way the Trail Blazers can sell tickets again at home!"

"That's an income of millions, which is worth a middle-class contract!"

The team doctor on the side smiled and said: "Luo Yin's ability is quite good. This closed injection is very effective."

"In fact, throughout the playoffs until now, his body has not been in the best condition. Tonight is the performance and true ability he should have."

Steve Patterson has no objection to this. Luo Yin's ability is beyond words. He is also a player who can reach the Western Conference All-Stars in his second year as a rookie. He is nicknamed Yellow Mamba and is known as one of the top five players in the Western Conference. How can a shooting guard not have a brush or two?

Steve Patterson went all out to get Luo Yin because he was interested in the opponent's upright and loyal character. He also fully believed that the opponent was willing to sacrifice everything for the team, even if it cost his own body and career.

"Is the wear and tear on his knee serious? Will it really affect his career and future?"

The team doctor's expression immediately became serious. He had thoroughly checked Luo Yin's injury in the past few days, and the result was that it was very serious.

"Luo Yin already suffered from meniscus wear in college, and he also had to play closed games."

"While it completely eliminates the pain from playing on the court and it feels like nothing is going on, the wear and tear continues."

"This kind of injury is not a serious problem, but the premise is that there is enough time to rest and help the meniscus recover."

"But Luo Yin has repeatedly forced himself to play in closed games, and his menisci in both knees have been left with potential injuries that cannot be healed."

"If I am not wrong in my assessment, he will definitely have to undergo surgery again in the off-season to further remove the meniscus due to the forced closure this time."

Steve Patterson's expression also became solemn when he heard this.

Although there are players on the NBA court who can still thrive after removing their meniscus, there are too few such cases. Most players have lost a level of strength after losing their meniscus, making it impossible for them to return to their peak.

Therefore, Luo Yin's knee problem will inevitably break out at some point in the future. If he takes good care of his body from now on, he may be able to extend his career. Otherwise, like most talented players, he will be just a flash in the pan. .

"The Trail Blazers can't wait anymore, and I can't wait anymore. When we have to show results, I have to show results in front of Paul."

"You know, this is my contract year too."

The team doctor seemed to be very familiar with Steve Patterson and knew the other person's rules of conduct. He just smiled and said.

"Occlusive injections are a common method for relieving bone and joint pain. Anesthetic drugs are mainly used, the most common ones being lidocaine hydrochloride injection, and short-acting hormonal drugs."

"The effect of this type of drug is very obvious, but there is also a drawback that we must face up to, that is, the effect of the drug generally only lasts for three days or at most a week."

"For NBA players, the effect of the drug will last shorter due to the intensity of the game, so Luo Yin may be affected by some injuries in the next game."

Steve Patterson thought for a moment and said, "Can I get another shot?"

The team doctor nodded and said, "It's not impossible, as long as Luo Yin has no objections."

"But two consecutive injections of blockade will have a serious impact on the athlete's body."

Steve Patterson stood up and said: "If the Trail Blazers win another game, maybe they can reach the finals!"

"That's the finals!"

"With this record, I'm afraid the new contract I'm about to sign will double."

"So, you should know what to do!"

The team doctor smiled and said, "I understand, I understand."

"Let's make money together."
