The Basketball Court Swordsman

Has Paul George really recovered to a state of complete health? Until Paul George started and stood in front of LeBron, he still had doubts about it.

As a basketball player, LeBron James knows what it is like to twist an ankle. This kind of injury may not be fatal to basketball players, but it is definitely not something you can survive through grit.

James believes that Paul George only returned to the court the day after he twisted his ankle because he "had to" play. In other words, LeBron does not think that George is coming back from injury, but that he will play with his injury!

How much strength can a Paul George with a foot injury show?

Don't hold on, tall and thin guy from Los Angeles!

"Today's game, Paul George is undoubtedly the focal figure and the X factor of this game. As we all know, it is true that George sprained his foot in yesterday's training, but today George is back on the court. Before today's game, there was no Any reporter can get George's situation. So we speculate that he played with an injury!"

Not only James, but even Mike Brin, the game's commentator, thinks George's comeback is somewhat reluctant.

Everyone knows that the Pacers are eager to establish a dynasty, and everyone knows that they need to grasp the victory of every game. Therefore, it is understandable that Henson allowed George to play with injury. After all, in the playoffs, it's not uncommon to play with injuries.

The most familiar to Chinese fans is undoubtedly the 2009 Western Conference semifinals. The NBA playoffs that year were full of blood and collisions. Especially in the Western Conference semifinals, the Lakers and Rockets both showed their true skills and played head-to-head games. Therefore, the Rockets kept playing in the series. The championship Lakers dragged to the tiebreaker.

In the first game, the two sides began a flesh-and-blood battle. First, the Rockets' defensive titan Battier was beaten to his head, and then Yao Ming reluctantly returned to the locker room because of a sprained knee. But what people didn't expect was that Yao Ming only did simple activities in the player channel and returned to the court again. At that moment, even the fans at the Staples Center applauded Yao Ming, who was the number one tough guy on the court at the time.

In the 2011 NBA Finals, Nowitzki led the aging Dallas Mavericks with an illness to face the Heat, which had just formed the Big Three, and it was one of the Heat's eternal pains.

In the previous three games, the Heat hit the score 2-1, so for the Mavericks they can't lose in the fourth game, otherwise it will be difficult to comeback.

However, it was unpredictable. Before the start of the fourth game, Nowitzki, the core of the Mavericks team, had a flu, but he still participated in the game with a high fever. It is said that Nowitzki was in the halftime of that game. When it was burned to 41 degrees Celsius, this also affected Nowitzki's performance in that game.

But what I didn't expect from the game was that in this case, Nowitzki, who had played poorly throughout the game, actually beat the game by breaking through at the last moment. As we all know, the Mavericks that year also had a big upset, defeated the Heat and became the championship.

After Kobe's finger is dislocated, he breaks back and continues to play. This is a common topic. But what people don't know is that Kobe also sprained his ankle the first day like George did, and then threw the walking stick back to the court the next day.

All these in the history of the NBA show that it is not unusual to play with injuries. The playoffs are like that, you have to do your best to win every matchup.

However, playing with an injury can only prove that you are strong enough, but it does not necessarily guarantee that you can still perform well.

So today, the Miami Heat's strategy is also very clear, that is to find George's big fuss!

"George's injury is really healed? I think we should not let him play for too long today." After the game began, the Pacers launched their first offense, but Frank Vogel was still worried about George. Injury.

"Don't worry, I'm not Tom Thibodeau." Henson replied lightly, and Thibodeau, who had already started his vacation, sneezed in his living room.

In the first offense, the basketball was not handed over to George. Paul pretended to be organizing the offense, but suddenly accelerated the breakthrough and used a mid-range jumper to score for the Pacers.

Paul's performance is undoubtedly commendable, but what people see more is-is it because George is injured, so Paul provokes the burden of scoring?

In the following round, Wade's successful breakthrough score further strengthened people's guesses about George.

This time, Wade used Bosh's cover to speed up. He knew very well that George was on the court with an injury, and his lateral movement could not be as fast as before, so he suddenly became very determined.

In the end, Wade avoided George's block with a beautiful air change and successfully scored.

At that moment, the few Heat fans in the Banker’s Life Arena cheered. They believe that the Pacers have lost an important weapon!

However, only George himself knew that there was no problem with his ankle and movement. Wade was able to score a goal just now, not because he didn't keep up, but just because Wade's air change of hands was so beautiful.

After all, Wade is someone who has work on his hands. Although he won with speed and explosive power when he was young, this does not mean that Wade can only score goals by speed and explosive power.

"It seems that the Pacers are in big trouble today! As we all know, George is the top scorer of the Pacers this season. This season, George has almost played a superstar-like performance. If the Pacers lose a superstar, their combat effectiveness will be certain. It will be greatly reduced!"

After Wade scored, Leonard's three-pointer hit the iron under James' interference. The Pacers' offense failed, and the basketball still didn't pass George's hands. At this time, "George was in poor condition due to injury" seems to have become a fact that everyone defaults.

After Leonard hit the iron, James personally grabbed the defensive rebound and pushed the ball quickly. This is the purpose of the Heat's major and minor players. Spoelstra hopes that the team's offensive rhythm can be fast.

James used the momentum of playing rugby to reach the penalty area with the ball. George actively assisted in the defense, but he was forced to drive by the No. 6 like a tank.

James hurriedly slammed with one hand after pushing against George! The quality of today's NBA basketball hoop is not comparable to that of the year, but James' dunk still made the solid basketball hoop shake for a while.

Pacers fans looked very worried, and George was brave to play with injuries. But the opponent will not let you go because you are on the court with an injury.

The scene was given to Henson, and the live director originally wanted to capture Henson's sad face. However, the Chinese coach still stood blankly on the sidelines, seemingly unresponsive to the past few rounds.

But this time, Spoelstra is sure that this guy Henson Joe is just doing it!

If Henson knew what everyone was thinking now, he would have found it strange. Obviously the Pacers didn't make any official statement, so why do you think that George played with an injury?

"Chris Paul's possession of the ball is very stable, but we still don't know how much George can play. Huh? This time, Paul let George hold the ball!"

After being scored by Wade and James consecutively, George, who has been tepid, finally took the initiative to ask for the ball.

The moment George caught the ball, Wade immediately posted it firmly. He knew very well that if George had an ankle injury, a breakthrough would definitely not be his first choice. So Wade's strategy is not to give this guy any shooting space.

But when Wade just pressed against George, George bowed his waist and took a big step, quickly passing by the "Flash".

No, now George is more like a "Flash". Wade was surprised to find that compared with the previous game, this guy's speed was not slow at all!

George's sudden breakthrough made the Heat's defense unprepared. He quickly jumped into the crowd, then stretched his long arm and gently picked it, and the basketball obediently entered the net. The Pacers' number one scorer seems to have come alive in an instant!

"Wade's defense is a little too careless. Even if George is on the court with an injury, he can't let the 24th break through the penalty zone like this!" Mike Brin really blamed Wade this time. Wade was careless, obviously just exhausting. I tried my best but still couldn't keep up with George's start speed!

But the already boosted Heat couldn't manage that much. They didn't even think about why George was so fast, so they attacked again.

After just overcoming George and completing a dunk, James became extremely excited. This time, he even personally controlled the ball for half the time, personally controlling the offense.

Bosh understood what James meant, so he didn't go up to cover, but took a position in the three-second zone. James attracted the Pacers' defensive attention from outside the three-point line, and Bosh was able to get a singles chance inside.

"Dragon King" knows very well that he must stand up and take up the heavy responsibilities now, and can no longer push all the pressure on James.

Therefore, Bosh turned around Horford with an extremely beautiful back, preparing for a high layup.

Horford didn't expect Bosh to be so decisive, so the defense was slightly slower. However, this half a beat is enough to tell the winner.

Just as Bosh was about to shoot the basketball, a black shadow suddenly flashed, and he forced the basketball in Bosh's hand to fly out of the bottom line!

Bosh was taken aback, and then he saw the big "24" number on the back of the Pacers jersey.

"Paul George, he finished the flying cap! Have you seen his defense speed and bullet speed? I really doubt whether there is any problem with his ankle!"

Not only Bosh, Mike Brin was also taken aback by George's flying cap. It can be said that he abruptly lost the two points that Bosh got.

After blocking, George looked up and screamed at the stands behind the rebound. Henson is the legendary coach, and he is Henson's passer. George remembers this oath!

Is this guy coming back from injury or playing with injuries? Henson believes that the process of the game will give all answers.
