Li Cheng is also thinking about whether to score another four points and complete the second single-game 50 points this season.
Who doesn’t have the idea of being competitive? Cut another 50 points, and the media will praise themselves to heaven again. Although Li Cheng hates those media, it feels really good to be held up by the media!
This is the attack of the Pacers. As soon as Li Cheng ran to the free throw line, Tinsley passed the ball to Li Cheng. His crazy performance in the last five minutes made his teammates basically follow him in running back and forth. So this time, Tinsley simply threw the ball to Li Cheng.
Hayes is the man defending Li Cheng now, and his physical strength is a very favorable condition in defending Li Cheng.
However, Li Cheng still ignored the defender in front of him. His upper body flashed, his feet slammed, and he made a simple and rude step. Although Hayes was ready, he was still rushed in by Li Cheng.
At the moment, Li Cheng has both shooting and breakthrough, and such a player is the most difficult to guard against when he is one-on-one. Hayes also has to take care of defending his shot, so Li Cheng rushed over so easily, but he didn’t completely lose his defensive position, he was only half a position behind Li Cheng.
Yao Ming came out once again. Today, he didn’t succeed in a one-on-one contest with Li Cheng. This time, he held his breath. Even if he loses the game, he will beat Li Cheng once.
"Yao Ming came out again, it seems that this time he is imperative. No one wants to let his opponent score 50 points in the case of losing. "
Watching Yao Ming go up to defend, the fans at the scene collectively burst into cheers.
"Teach that arrogant China person a lesson."
"Kick her ass!"
These are Houston fans.
"Wow!" It is Chinese fans who exclaim like this. Watching the excitement is not too big, and watching the game is worth the ticket price.
Li Cheng collided with Yao Ming’s body again, and Hayes took the opportunity to block it up.
"ah!" Li Cheng let out a roar in his throat, slammed his feet on the ground and jumped off.
Hayes was in the back, Yao Ming was in the front, but Li Cheng was fearless and jumped directly. Seeing the action, he actually wanted to buckle one through Yao Ming.
The scene was full of exclamations. When Sung Jae Lee was in the air, his waist would exert force again. At the same time, his left hand would lean on Yao Ming’s shoulder and his hand would exert force again, so that he could stay in the air for a longer time. Li Cheng’s right hand grabbed the basketball and dodged Yao Ming’s block in the air, hitting the ball straight to the basket, while his left hand gave Yao Ming a push.
Blocking failed, and Yao Ming was pushed by Li Cheng. When he landed, his center of gravity was unstable and he fell directly to the ground. But Sung Jae Lee managed to buckle the ball into the basket, and his body had completely lost its center of gravity. He was hit by Hayes behind him and flew out directly.
The referee’s whistle sounded again, and Li Cheng completed "2+1" again, and the audience also gave great cheers. Obviously, Li Cheng’s dunk was greatly satisfied.
However, soon they all shut up. Li Cheng and Yao Ming fell to the ground and didn’t get up. Yao Ming rolled on the ground clutching his left foot, and Li Cheng looked very painful clutching his right shoulder.
Li Cheng and Yao Ming’s actions frightened the head coaches of the two teams, and they immediately called the staff to check their injuries.
Soon the staff came to the conclusion that Li Cheng’s shoulder was a hard injury, and the pain was good in the past. O ‘Brien was obviously relieved to get this result. Adelman on the other side can’t laugh. Yao Ming’s ankle seems to be broken and needs further examination.
Yao Ming was helped to the dressing room, while Li Cheng continued to stand on the free throw line.
Adelman’s brow was frowning tightly, and he simply replaced all the main players to avoid any more injuries. After Sung Jae Lee scored the penalty, he also volunteered to leave the game. Yao Ming’s injury left him in no mood to brush points again.
Li Cheng began to worry about the Olympic Games. How far can China go without Yao Ming?
Originally, Li Chengke was not so patriotic, but when he came to the United States alone, he realized that the distant East was his home and that it was his motherland. When he was at school before, whenever he saw a place with a five-star red flag, he wanted to rush over and touch it. Whenever he hears someone mention "china" in a chat, he always pricks up his ears to listen; Whenever he sees a man with black hair and yellow skin, he will ask him if he is from China.
After staying in the United States for a long time, Li Cheng’s sense of belonging to China became stronger and stronger. When he gained a foothold in the nba, he fantasized about playing for China in the Olympic Games wearing the national team’s shirt for countless times.
Yao Ming was injured because of him. He was a little self-reproached, a little worried, and even a little upset. If Yao Ming was injured and the China men’s basketball team failed to score well in the Olympic Games, Li Cheng would feel like a sinner.
In the end, the Pacers beat the Rockets 119-112 away, but after the team won, Li Cheng’s interest was not very high. In the routine interview with Nisha after the game, Li Cheng also appeared very perfunctory, which was originally a link he liked very much after the game.
O ‘Brien knew that Li Cheng was in a low mood and was in a bad mood, so he was not allowed to attend the press conference. In the dressing room, Li Cheng also refused the reporter’s interview and sat alone in the corner listening to music.
After the game, the Pacers stepped on the plane to San Antonio at night, where they will challenge the powerful Spurs tomorrow.
"Don’t blame yourself. Yao’s injury is not your problem." Before boarding the plane, Li Cheng glanced at his mobile phone. It was a short message from Nisha. Li Cheng finally showed a smile on his face and replied, "I’m fine, don’t worry! I’m going to get on the plane. "
Before boarding the plane, Li Cheng had a short chat with Nisha, and he didn’t turn off his phone until the plane took off, ending the communication with Nisha.
"Which little sister should I send a text message to?" Granger asked stealthily.
"Get out of here!"
"I was going to comfort you, but now it seems that you are all right. I went to play cards with them in the back, so help yourself."
"Get out of here, I’m sleeping."
At this time, in an orthopedic hospital in Houston, the doctor who examined Yao Ming was the best orthopedic surgeon in Houston.
Facing the old man whose hair is almost gone, Yao Ming said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Sterling, how is my injury?"
"Not very optimistic."
Hearing this, Yao Ming’s heart sank to the bottom. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with difficulty, "Can I still catch up with the Olympic Games?"
"It’s hard to say! It is unlikely. "
"Doctor, I beg you, please keep my Olympic Games no matter what!" Yao Ming’s eyes were red, and tears were already swirling in her eyes.
Hearing Yao Ming’s words and this tone, everyone’s heart trembled at the scene, and they were in awe of the China giant.
Chapter seventy-four Public opinion
Yao Ming’s sudden injury cast a shadow on the hearts of basketball fans all over China, perhaps not only basketball fans, but almost all China people were shocked.
Everyone knows what it means for China basketball Yao Ming. In the coming Olympic Games soon, China’s dream of breaking through the "Millennium Old Eight" fell on Yao Ming’s shoulders. Now Yao Ming is injured … Everything is different.
Although China men’s basketball team still has Li Cheng, who has a very good defender, wouldn’t it be great if Li Cheng and Yao Ming could combine inside and outside? Wouldn’t it be a good thing if both of them could appear in the starting lineup of China men’s basketball team?
Some time ago, when China people mentioned Li Cheng, they mostly said "the person who passed the ball to Yao Ming". Obviously, in the hearts of Chinese people, the China team still has to rely on Yao Ming to take the lead.
As a defender, Li Cheng is really lovable. Many people like his style of playing, but this does not mean that people in China, Sung Jae Lee will have a higher status than Yao Ming. You know, many China fans started watching nba in 2002, and the teams they supported were all Rockets, and Houston Rockets were just like China’s home team.
They have been watching Yao Ming since they started watching nba, and it has been 6 years since then. Now that Li Cheng is out, everyone is happy, but Yao Ming’s serious injury still makes them feel very uncomfortable. After all, they watched Yao Ming grow up step by step in the nba.
When Yao Ming just entered the nba as the first foreign champion, he scored only 3.3 points in the first six games, which made Buckley very dissatisfied.
Before the Houston Rockets’ game against Golden State Warriors, Buckley opened his mouth and boasted that as long as Yao Ming could score 19 points in any game this season, he would kiss the donkey’s ass.
In the home game of the Rockets against the Warriors, Yao Ming scored only 3 points, which made Buckley even more arrogant. He stressed again after the game that as long as Yao Ming can score 19 points in any game this season, he will fulfill his promise.
But only a week later, Yao Ming hit Sir Charles in the face with practical actions. He made 9 of 9 shots against the Los Angeles Lakers and scored 20 points.
In the end, Buckley could only swallow the bitter fruit he had caused, and he promised that he would honor his promise in the next game to comment on the Rockets.
On November 23rd, 2002, the Rockets lost to the Mavericks, and Yao Ming scored 30 points and 16 rebounds in this game. Buckley was conquered by Yao Ming. At halftime, a male donkey rented by Kenny Smith for $500 was taken into the studio, and Buckley kissed the ass of the donkey.
Yao Ming is proud of the people of China in the nba. How did the two China players who logged into the nba before Yao Ming ever do this?
Before Yao Ming, many Americans thought that China players were the team’s mascots. Any team that has a water dispenser keeper in China can win the championship. The Pacers signed Li Cheng, which may also be due to this reason!
It was Yao Ming who made Americans change their views on China, and it was Yao Ming who made Americans know that China people can play basketball. Therefore, many people in China have a special feeling for Yao Ming.
"Yao Ming is clutching his leg and his expression is very painful. Are you hurt?"
"This time is the key time! The Olympic Games will be held in the second half of the year. Yao Ming can’t be injured at this time! "
"Li Cheng’s expression is also very painful, but now it seems to be all right. It is estimated that it is a serious injury."
