Chapter 188: The Transformation of the Chinese Team
"You guys might have to be ready for Middleton's playoff reimbursement!"
Meng Xiaohao was stunned, but when he saw the team doctor's very serious expression, he knew that the team doctor must not be lying.
"For ...... Why? Is it badly injured? ”
The team doctor shook his head, "The injury is not very serious, but I will miss all the remaining games of the season, and I am now visually dislocated in my arm." ”
Meng Xiaohao frowned, it seems that this playoffs are not easy to go......
The team medical towel covered Middleton's arm, and Middleton clutched his shoulders in pain and ran back to the locker room.
It was all quiet, and Middleton's injury was so sudden that neither the players nor the fans at the scene reacted.
Coach Garcia has a black face, and now there is no Middleton, which is a very big blow to the Fortune team, which will make the road to the playoffs difficult for the Fortune team.
At this time, Meng Xiaohao was bowing his head and praying, he prayed, hoping that Middleton's injury was not serious, and he could recuperate for a period of time before returning to the court to play.
The following time, Coach Garcia removed all the starters, and he didn't want the starters to be like Middleton again.
The game had gone into garbage time, and although Charlotte had a comeback momentum in the fourth quarter, it was already being pressed down by the Fortune Players.
In the end, the Fortune team won the game and got the match point.
After the game, Middleton's injury report has also come out, dislocating his left arm and reimbursing him for the season.
This is a very big blow to the Fortune team, and without Middleton, it is equivalent to missing a very good and lethal outside shooting point.
Middleton's tactical status with the Fortune Players is still very high.
So now that Middleton is injured, Meng Xiaohao is naturally known as the second scorer of the Fortune team, and now he has a more important responsibility.
……
"Xiaohao, I see that you have been recuperating well recently, after Middleton was injured, his position, you should take it!"
Coach Garcia found Meng Xiaohao and told him about it.
Meng Xiaohao nodded, "I know, even if you don't say it, I'll do it!" ”
Coach Garcia smiled and patted Meng Xiaohao on the shoulder, "Be careful when playing, I don't want our team to have any more injuries!" ”
"I will!"
……
The fourth game was still played in Charlotte.
Even if the Fortune Men are missing Middleton, they are still not something the Charlotte Hall team can deal with.
Meng Xiaohao assumed greater responsibility for the offense, from the main conduction to the main offense.
In this game, the Fortune Team did not give the palace team any chance, Meng Xiaohao and Derek both exerted their strength and took the game away directly.
In this game, Meng Xiaohao scored 26 points, which was the most points scored in a single game since his return.
Derrick also scored a terrifying triple-double of 33 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists, and still showed his brave performance and won the game with Meng Xiaohao.
In this way, the Charlotte Hall team was eliminated, and the third consecutive season ended with a round of tours.
Although the Fortune team has advanced, the media and experts are not very optimistic about the Fortune team, after all, the outside shooting point of the Fortune team is injured.
"Middleton's injury has given the Fortune Players a lot less offense, and if they face a stronger Washington Royals, they will have a hard time playing."
"Then let's see what kind of performance Meng Xiaohao will play, in so many games, he has no main attack, he is the main pass, see what changes Meng Xiaohao can make without Middleton?"
Gradually, experts and the media turned their attention to Meng Xiaohao, and the change of this player who returned from injury determined the online line of the Fortune team.
If Meng Xiaohao is still the main passer, then it will be difficult for the Fortune team to go far, and if Meng Xiaohao is the main attack like the fourth game, then the Fortune team is likely to enter the finals again.
Meng Xiaohao also knows that his changes determine the life and death of the team.
The Fortune Guys' opponent in the second round is the Brooklyn Panthers, who are sixth in the East.
The Panthers met the Watchers, who were third in the East, in the first round of the game, and it was supposed to be a series that ended in a landslide victory for the Watchers, but the Panthers resisted to the death.
In the seventh, Brooklyn's quarterback played against the sky, hitting three three-pointers in the final minute to kill the game.
In the end, the Brooklyn Panthers made it to the second round.
In the second-round series, the Panthers were in high spirits, they just eliminated the Watchmen, who were third in the East, and now for them, that team is all winnable.
And now Middleton, one of the leading stars of the Fortune team, is still injured, so they think they have a better chance.
But they forgot that there are still two people in the Fortune Team, and there are two terrifying existences, that is, Meng Xiaohao and Derek.
Seeing that the Black Panthers were so arrogant, Meng Xiaohao and Derek naturally didn't want to get used to their problems, and they wanted to let the Brooklyn Black Panthers feel the fear from the abyss.
The first and second games, at home in New York.
Meng Xiaohao and Derrick will naturally not let go of this opportunity, although without Middleton, the team's offensive ability will drop a lot, but on the contrary, they will also have more opportunities.
Meng Xiaohao and Derrick combined for 60 points in the first game, directly knocking Brooklyn into a daze.
In the second game, Meng Xiaohao, Derek and Kobo combined for 81 points, and a wave took the game away.
The third and fourth games came to Brooklyn.
Although it was a home game, the Panthers were obviously a little out of confidence because they were pressed to the ground by the Fortune team in the first two games.
They have deeply felt the disadvantages of inexplicable self-confidence.
There is still no suspense in the third and fourth games.
In these two games, Derek can be said to be a god, scoring a total of 76 points in both games, both of which are the highest scores in the game.
In the face of Derek's terrifying offensive, the Black Panthers were really powerless to resist.
Although they were lucky enough to win the Foremen, it didn't mean that God would favor them a second time, and they had no chance of winning against the Fortune Ones.
The Fortune Makers went on another 4-0 run to reach the Eastern Conference Finals.
Their opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals was the Washington Royals, known as the Kings that season.
The Royals also did well in the first two rounds of the playoffs, with a 4-0 and a 4-1 winning landslide, on par with the Fortune Players.
The contest between these two teams is full of highlights, and this is the first time Meng Xiaohao has faced Lucas in the playoffs.
The champion of the year, the battle with the ninth pick, began!
