The Way of the Center

Chapter 482: A Different Christmas Eve

"How do you feel?" After the game, three team doctors from the Trail Blazers surrounded An Jie, and made a comprehensive examination and evaluation of his fingers after the game like observing rare animals.

"It hurts a little, nothing else." An Jie answered lightly, as if he wasn't the one who broke his finger.

"No problem?" Ricard came up with concern. A few balls in the game just now obviously hurt An Jie's severed finger. Every time this happened, Ricard felt a twinge of pain in his heart.

"There's nothing serious right now, but..." The team doctor looked at Ricard, then at Anjie.

"Let's talk about it here, there are no outsiders here." An Jie didn't mind the team doctor discussing his injury in front of his teammates in the locker room.

"If you continue like this, the recovery of your fingers is destined to be greatly affected. I'm afraid that the shape of your fingers will not grow back to normal in the future." The team doctor of the Trail Blazers knew very well how terrible Kobe and Jordan's fingers looked. However, if An Jie continues, he will be the next one like that.

"As long as it doesn't affect playing basketball and normal daily life, I can accept it." An Jie's words reassured most people in the locker room that their leader had no intention of abandoning them.

"Since you say so, there is nothing else to do. His fingers are in good condition, so don't worry."

"Okay, thank you, doctor. Let's go, Ann, let's go to the press conference. I think those reporters must have a lot of questions to ask you."

After waiting patiently in the media reception room for forty minutes, An Jie's work for the day was finally over.

Back home, An Jie felt very tired. Fortunately, Catherine has prepared a bathtub of bath water, allowing An Jie to relax.

play injured,

In the past, An Jie always thought that this was just something that he could survive by gritting his teeth. But when he experienced it himself, he realized how hard the process was.

From training to competitions, Anjie has to overcome difficulties and hardships that are several times greater than others. But as long as these sacrifices can bring him back the victory, An Jie feels that it is all worth it.

Just when An Jie was soaking in the comfortable bathtub and was about to fall asleep, the door of the bathroom was gently pushed open. Catherine emerged from the smoky mist, without clothes, of course.

"Have you had enough rest? Butcher." Catherine's voice was charming.

Hmm, maybe some light exercise after the game will help Angie rest better at night  …

...................................

After defeating the Nuggets, no one will question the injured Anjie again. George Karl has become a victim, the one who proved to the entire league that Anjie is still strong.

After this game, Anjie also became very popular. In the past, he gave other fans more of a fierce and tough impression. But now, there are two more words in Anjie's label, dedicated and brave.

This kind of behavior can often make fans respect a player. Now many neutral fans have also become one of An Jie's fans.

The officials of the Chinese Basketball Association who learned of the situation even sent someone to the United States to check on An Jie's situation. Of course, they also brought "kind" greetings from the motherland to Anjie.

Although it pays too much attention to superficial work, it is an indisputable fact that the Basketball Association cares about Anjie's injury. Now the Chinese national team is hard to find talents. If An Jie is lost, what will become of Chinese basketball is really unimaginable. The Chinese Basketball Association is lucky. When they lost Yao Ming, An Jie perfectly replaced the vacancy left by Yao Ming. But if one day An Jie also falls, then the officials of the Basketball Association will not be able to find the next "thigh".

An Jie's injury affects too many people's hearts, but the NBA's intensive schedule will not give special care to An Jie.

After a win over the Nuggets on Dec. 20, the Blazers have four games left in December. Among them, December 25th will also be Anjie's first Christmas battle. This year, Angie will lose his Christmas break. However, being able to participate in the Christmas game is also a recognition by the league of the strength of the Trail Blazers.

However, in a game before the Christmas game, because of the heavy snow in the icy Sacramento, the plane Anjie and the others were on was also delayed. The exhausted Trail Blazers players had a big upset in this cold winter, losing to the Kings with a record of only 8 wins and 18 losses.

Cousins ​​​​still didn't take advantage of the confrontation with Anjie, even if Anjie is not healthy now. But the Kings still worked hard when Cousins ​​was not dominant, and hit consecutive three-pointers in the fourth quarter, completely dragging down the Trail Blazers.

An Jie was not too disappointed when he was interviewed. Instead, he told reporters that if the Trail Blazers met the Kings again, he would win back what he lost with his own hands.

As soon as An Jie said this, he naturally had a verbal battle with Cousins.

"We won the victory based on our strength. Why does he have such a dissatisfied expression? If we say that the victory is not forceful, Anna himself bears the brunt of it! Believe me, even if we go to Portland in the future, the result of the game will not change! Cousins ​​responded strongly to An Jie's words in front of the camera. Although he was just defeated by the injured An Jie, Cousins ​​seems to have selective amnesia for all his failures.

The quarrel between An Jie and Cousins ​​was very exciting, but at the moment, the scolding between the two did not cause any uproar. After all, the Christmas game two days later is the topic that fans are most concerned about in recent days.

"Will you be excited to participate in the Christmas game for the first time?" Sure enough, in the interview after the training the next day, the reporters did not ask Anjie to comment on Cousins' remarks, but asked him to talk about himself. Thoughts on Christmas Wars.

"I am very fortunate to be able to present wonderful performances to the fans on such an important festival. Before, I could only watch the performance of other stars on TV, but this year, it will be very interesting to be able to participate in it in person." In fact, Anjie's heart True thought: "I'd rather spend Christmas at home with friends and family than work on this day."

But that's the price of fame, and no star can be reunited with his family on Christmas Day. Fortunately, this year's Christmas battle was held in Portland, so Anjie didn't have to separate from Catherine on Christmas Day.

"Let's talk about your opponents. Facing the old enemy Clippers again, do you think the team can complete the restriction on the Clippers without LaMarcus?"

It's the Clippers again. Since being swept in the playoffs last season, the Clippers and the Blazers have become irreconcilable. Earlier this season, the Blazers met the Clippers once. The result of that game ended in a big victory for the Trail Blazers. But now that Aldridge is missing, coupled with the eager revenge of the Clippers, Anjie and the others may really encounter a lot of trouble.

"For the Clippers, we all know each other better, so it's difficult to play something unexpected. I say, this will be a head-to-head duel. The lack of LaMarcus will indeed bring us a lot of difficulties, But I think we can overcome it!" Anjie did not deny the strength of the Clippers, of course, he did not show weakness to the Clippers because Aldridge could not play.

Originally, the league originally planned to arrange a battle between the Heat and the Trail Blazers on this day, but in the end it was the plan of the "Finals Preview" between the Thunder and the Heat that moved Stern.

Although they have not encountered the worst opponent, the current Clippers are still difficult to deal with. Compared to last season, this team has become more mature, and they want to beat the Trail Blazers more than before. And what about the Trail Blazers? They experienced Aldridge's truce and Anjie's injury. The situation of the two teams has undergone earth-shaking changes. Therefore, the final result is very likely to be quite different from the previous one.

This is the great opportunity that the Clippers must seize if they want to win. They will launch a desperate onslaught in the Rose Garden and try to defeat the Trail Blazers in front of fans all over the world to prove their strength.

The Christmas game is always a small climax in the NBA regular season. On this day, everyone will rise up for honor.

The NBA can make a lot of money because of this special game day, but for the players, this day will be a preview of the playoffs.

Since it is the prediction of the playoffs, the scene must be quite intense......

Can An Jie's fingers withstand the real test? Everyone is waiting to see!
