Basketball Myth: Super Guard

in the locker room.

Seeing his teammates come in, Iguodala stood up, his right hand had been fixed by the team doctor, he opened his left hand and hugged his teammates one by one, without saying any words of gratitude, everything was silent.

"Andre (Andre Iguodala)." Qin Hao looked at Iguodala's right hand.

"It's all right." Iguodala forced a smile: "It's just a minor injury, it will get better soon." He patted Qin Hao on the shoulder, "You played really well today."

Qin Hao squeezed out a smile, and his heart was full of worry.

Afterwards, everyone hurriedly packed up and accompanied Iguodala to the hospital for further examination, and the results came out soon.

"The right index finger is contused. It's not a big problem. It can be recovered after a period of rest. It's just..." The team doctor came to the players. He was a doctor himself. He accompanied Iguodala to check and communicate with the doctor in the hospital , At this time, he shook his head and continued: "The injury to the middle finger is more serious, and the front end of the middle finger is fractured, which is more troublesome."

"How long will it take?" Coach Luke asked hurriedly.

Each player also stared at the team doctor.

The team doctor also knows the situation of the 76ers. Now is the time for the 76ers to hit the playoffs. At this time, it has reached the beginning of March, and the regular season will end in April, which means that there is still more than a month left. The next month or so is extremely critical.

But Iguodala's injury...

"Team doctor, hurry up." Qin Hao urged.

The team doctor gave a wry smile and said, "The contusion of the index finger is not a big problem. Although the fracture of the middle finger is not serious and does not require surgery, the recovery time is relatively long, and it takes 4-6 weeks to recover. Of course, it varies from person to person, and some people Some people recover faster, some people recover slower."

around?

Everyone's heart sank.

This is still a conservative estimate. If the recovery is not good, it may take six weeks or even longer, and there is only a month left in the regular season.

In other words, even if Iguodala is good, he will not be able to return until the end of the regular season, and at that time he still needs time to get back in shape...

In other words, Iguodala cannot be counted on for the rest of the regular season.

This is too bad, although the players are mentally prepared, after all, Iguodala's injury does not seem to be light, but without Iguodala, the 76ers are equal to missing an important piece of the puzzle. At this critical moment, is there any hope of hitting the playoffs?

For a while, everyone was silent, and the atmosphere was a little depressed.

After a while, Iguodala came out.

He already knew about his injury, and his face was full of frustration at this time. Seeing that his teammates were also depressed, he forced a smile and said, "You all know that, right? I can't play during this time, but I believe you can do it."

Everyone nodded, their hearts were bitter.

Qin Hao looked at Iguodala, and before he could speak, Iguodala patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly: "Fight well, the team will be handed over to you during my absence."

What else can I say?

At this time, everything seemed pale, Qin Hao only felt that the burden on his shoulders suddenly became heavier, and nodded heavily.

......

The next day, the 76ers announced Iguodala's injury, because there are countless 76ers fans watching Iguodala's injury.

The index finger is contused, the middle finger is fractured, and the truce is expected to be 4-6 weeks!

Hearing this news, 76ers fans wailed, even if they were not 76ers fans, they couldn't help but lament the 76ers' "bad fate". After going through a trade turmoil before, changing coaches in the middle, and then changing the inside lineup... Now it's finally on the right track, developing in a good direction, and even hoping to hit the playoffs, but this happened.

Without Iguodala, the 76ers' starting lineup is missing a very important part, which will have a great impact on their strength.

So what's next for the 76ers?

......

Philadelphia, 76ers practice arena.

Because of Iguodala's injury, the team's strength was damaged. It coincided with a critical period for the impact of the playoffs. The players were affected and their emotions were a little low.

Everyone is training freely, no one laughs, no one talks, the arena seems a bit dull, and the players lack a bit of vitality.

"coach."

Coach Luke and several assistants arrive.

Taking a glance, Coach Luke couldn't help frowning, but the current state of the players was also expected by him, clapped his hands, called the players, and said: "Although Iguodala is injured and will be sidelined for 4-6 weeks, but we We can’t be slumped because of this. There are still many games waiting for us, our goal will not change, even if Iguodala is injured, we still have to attack the playoffs.”

Of course, the impact of Iguodala's injury cannot be eliminated with a few words from Coach Luke, and it will take time.

Coach Luke added: "From today, Lou Wei will serve as the starting shooting guard, and the positions of other starters will remain unchanged."

After that, Coach Luke divided into groups and let the players conduct group confrontation training.

However, today is not just a practice of tactics as usual. Because of the lack of Iguodala, Lu Wei was put in the starting lineup, which means that the starting lineup and the rotation lineup have changed, and some tactics have to be adjusted accordingly.

The most important point is that Qin Hao's tactical status has changed. In the past, he and Iguodala were divided into half, half of the tactics were played around Qin Hao, and half of the tactics were played around Iguodala.

But now the tactical core of the starting lineup is only Qin Hao.

"We're like this..." Coach Luke drew tactics on the tactical board and explained to the players, who listened attentively.

The players have no objection to the tactical change. Originally Qin Hao was the team's No. 2 player. Now that Iguodala is injured and absent, Qin Hao has naturally become the only core.

Moreover, Qin Hao's personal ability is also worthy of his performance on the field.

After some arrangement, the players started training.

A new lineup and new tactics always require a process of adaptation. Whether it is Qin Hao or other players, there have been problems of one kind or another at the beginning.

These are normal, Coach Luke is not worried, he is only worried about a little...

After an hour of training, Coach Luke stopped and the players rested. He stopped Qin Hao and said, "How is it, do you feel a lot of pressure?"

This is what Coach Luke is most worried about. After all, Qin Hao is only in his first season, and he is still a 20-year-old young man. Suddenly, he will be the core of the team and carry the entire team. The psychological pressure can be imagined. , he was worried about whether Qin Hao could resist.

Qin Hao nodded, then smiled at Coach Luke, and said, "It's a lot of pressure, but someone has to stand up and take it, right?"

Hearing this, Coach Luke was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and patted Qin Hao on the shoulder with relief. It is rare for a 20-year-old rookie player to have such awareness.
