said a thousand things and ten thousand, Sun Ce felt that it was still a weight problem, which caused Randolph's injury.

It seems that this injury is caused by fatigue, but the cause of fatigue, in addition to playing more games in the past few years, Sun Ce feels that with Randolph's physical talent, the biggest impact is the weight change twice a year.

Gaining weight may not cause fatigue damage to ligaments, meniscus, etc., but weight loss will definitely do.

I was tired from playing, and I had to lose weight in the early part of the season, and I lost weight year after year, even if Randolph's physical talent was good, after playing for more than ten years, the physical wear and tear would be very large, and it was far greater than those players who usually train and maintain well.

Sun Ce has always felt that there is a paradox, there are always people who say that players like O'Neill and Randolph can't train more, otherwise they will be scrapped long ago.

However, Sun Ce felt that if these two didn't eat and drink nonsense and play all day in the summer, they would be self-disciplined every day, exercise moderately, and control their weight well, they would definitely not miss more than ten or twenty games every year, at least they wouldn't have minor injuries.

People who don't exercise are in better health than people who exercise moderately? Apparently impossible.

In other words, Randolph's injury is actually predictable, the kind of thing that accumulates for various reasons in the past and is inevitable.

However, no matter how much Sun Ce can analyze and find the reason, it feels too difficult!

……

After talking to Sun, Bill Duffy rushed to FedEx Arena, where Grizzlies management and coaching staff were already discussing Randolph's problem.

After receiving Randolph's confirmed injury this morning, owner Robert Pera also rushed back to Memphis.

With Randolph's case in hand, the Grizzlies coaching staff and management discussed it for a long time, and after Bill Duffy arrived, it was still being discussed.

Is it the choice of conservative treatment so that the playoffs can be returned? Or do you choose surgical treatment to avoid hidden dangers?

It is not that conservative treatment will not be able to heal, in fact, the probability of recovery with conservative treatment is also very high, but conservative treatment, there are many uncontrollable factors, which need long-term observation, once there is a problem, surgical treatment is still necessary, and it is delayed for a long time, and then surgical treatment recovery is definitely not the first time to choose surgical treatment effect is good.

Robert Pera listened to the coaches, trainers, team doctors, and general managers for a long time, and learned more about the specific situation of injuries from the discussions among the staff.

The reason for not choosing conservative treatment, Robert Pera also understands - the age problem.

Conservative treatment is a great test of a player's physical recovery, and Randolph, who turned 33 this summer, has passed the peak of a player's body.

And the two choices, as an agent, Bill Duffy can't interject, because both options have advantages and disadvantages for Randolph himself, and there is no impact on the contract, and the contract extension has been signed last month.

After much thought, Robert Pera made a decision: "If we can increase the probability of Zach getting back healthy, we will choose surgery, Zach is one of our most important players in the next two years, Chris, your plan over there, we need to get it done before the All-Star Weekend." ”

Hearing Robert Pera's words, the team doctors and assistant coaches who opposed the surgical treatment also had no opinion, and it was understandable to make the choice of surgical treatment, the strength of Randolph after he was fully healthy was one thing, and the other was money...... Just renewed his contract for two years, if it is really conservative treatment, it will lead to a serious injury in the future, ruin Randolph's career, and the loss for the team will be even greater!

Grizzlies management and coaching staff are not actually exclusive to either option, but they have their own tendencies, and when the boss makes the decision, they are exempted from the risk of responsibility...... Although the team atmosphere is good and everyone works hard, in terms of responsibility allocation, everyone is tacit, and the boss naturally knows this, so he makes a decision directly.

Now Chris Wallace's burden is heavier, Randolph is injured, he is about to collapse, directly disrupting the whole plan, and now he has to complete the goal almost a month early, and there will be huge changes!

Previously, based on Randolph, it was ready to rebuild the interior line, and it was also necessary to retain the role of Yi Jianlian, Stoudemire, Larry Sanders and other interior players to the greatest extent, and the team's style of play was also changing.

The defensive inconsistency of their Grizzlies this year is largely related to the fact that management and coaching staff have decided to change the interior structure.

……

……

Randolph's reimbursement for the season due to injury caused a shock in the basketball world!

If you want to say how strong he is, he is definitely not as strong as Griffin, Duncan and others, but in terms of playoff role, Randolph is especially important to the Grizzlies!

This year, the Grizzlies have had their ups and downs, with many minor injuries and problems, but there are still many people who regard them as the favorites to win the championship, because the Bears have obviously not recovered to their best condition, and even so, they have played quite well with the three young stars on the outside.

However, it's different now, and the Grizzlies' best player inside the playoffs is reimbursed for the season!

This is undoubtedly a huge blow to the overall strength of the Grizzlies, this year, with the three young players on the outside continue to improve, averaging 66 points per game, and on the basis of adding new members to enhance their vitality, the Grizzlies have not been able to show dominance, which has a lot to do with the fact that the interior has not yet recovered its form.

But there is always hope, when Randolph's weight drops below 125 kilograms, he can cooperate well with Larry Sanders and Gasol Jr., and after Gasol Jr. successfully loses weight, he can form an extremely strong and comprehensive offensive and defensive five-man group with Randolph and the three young stars on the outside.

But now, the hope is gone!

When the Grizzlies announced that Randolph would undergo surgery and the recovery period would start in 4 months, the bookmaker's odds for the Grizzlies to win the championship plummeted, falling from 3rd to 8th, behind the Lakers, Spurs, Bulls, Heat, Thunder, Warriors, and Mavericks!

……

Originally, after playing four consecutive games, the Grizzlies had two days off on their side, but on the 7th, the team did not arrange training because today was "Lord's Day".

Sun Ce originally planned to participate in the event held by the Imperial Court Channel, holding a fan meeting in Memphis to celebrate his birthday, and Lily Collins and Zu Goose will also appear in the video link, and the Internet channel of the Imperial Court Channel will broadcast the whole process.

But now he can only be absent, and Lily Collins and Zu Goose will represent him at the scheduled event.

After the team confirmed that Randolph would undergo surgery, veteran Richard Jefferson, with the cooperation of Battier, held an impromptu internal meeting of the players!
