Chapter Seventy-Four: Injuries

The first goal has not officially started, and the last thing Hu Qingniu wants to see happens.

Heywood suddenly fell to the ground in a push from the inside, clutching his right leg in pain.

Slow motion shows that he just stepped on the feet of others in the fierce confrontation on the inside, and it seems to be Yao Ming. Hu Qingniu saw Yao Ming squatting down and rubbing his left foot, and that script had a history of injury. But immediately Yao Ming stood up and seemed to be fine.

Although Heywood only stepped on the surface of his foot, due to his large weight, his ankle was damaged in unimaginable ways for ordinary people.

The biggest enemy of every big center's career is their own feet, and in order to cope with the fierce competition in the NBA, they often add weight to put their feet under immense pressure. The body is as strong as O'Neal is also suffering from his foot injury, and he has not had a full season in his entire 18-year career, basically due to a leg injury and a foot injury.

Hu Qingniu quickly stepped forward to inspect Heywood's injury, there was no deformity at the ankle, but there was a large bruise.

Fortunately, it was not a fracture, Hu Qingniu quickly made a judgment.

"Brandon, don't worry, it's just a minor injury!" Hu Qingniu said to Heywood, who was screaming.

He then used duct tape to fix Heywood's wound and apply a compression bandage. His speed was very fast, and it only took a few tens of seconds in total, which also shocked the other medical workers in front of the TV. After the bandaging was completed, the Wizards were allowed to carry Haywood off the court on a medical stretcher.

Hu Qingniu felt very uncomfortable when he suffered attrition at the beginning, but he still encouraged the players on the field to say that there is no psychological burden and play hard.

Hu walked up to Rodman and motioned for him to come on and replace the wounded Haywood.

The race is back!

Larry Hughes commanded his teammates to settle in the top arc, and he observed his teammates' positions out of the corner of his eye.

Jeffries ran out of position, he had a big stride and a quick man. The Rockets' starting small forward was James Posey, who was traded from the Nuggets in the middle of the season, and he has been a defensive stalwart since coming to the Rockets.

Jeffries got rid of him for a while and caught the basketball, but Posey quickly followed.

Jeffries's dribbling can only be said to be good in a big forward, and it is average in a small forward, he has no space to break through when he is entangled, and his shooting is very reluctant.

At this time, he could only transfer the ball, and Rodman rarely stretched out his hand to ask for the ball, perhaps because he felt that he was the boss of the field in the current lineup.

Although Rodman averaged only 3 points per game, Jeffries still passed the ball into the box.

Last season's No. 7 pick, Eddie Griffin from Pennsylvania, was the starting power forward for the Rockets, with average offense, average defense, and average rebounding, and it can only be said that this player is average in everything. The only good thing is the same as all the surnames Griffin, the bounce is excellent, and the most glorious moment on the course is "Griffin's Flight".

Although Rodman's skills were rough, he still had the ability to arch twice, and I saw him leaning his back against Griffin, and the same rough muscle mass on his body bulged and hit Griffin's chest.

Griffin stepped back and slowly, and slowly Rodman pushed the ground to the basket.

It's time, Rodman jumps directly with his back and flips in the air to jump, which is really a rough move.

But Griffin had been knocked out of his temper, and he was watching motionlessly at this time, and the stuffiness in his chest made him unable to jump.

Equivalent to an unguarded goal, can Rodman score?

Just when Rodman was confidently trying to adjust his posture and shoot in order to look a little more standard.

A giant spirit palm came like a thunderbolt, shattering all of Rodman's beautiful fantasies!

"Smack!"

The ball was slammed off the court, and a two-foot-tall giant spirit god looked down at Rodman. The crisp sound of the slap just now seemed to be a declaration that this was his territory, and he should show me some respect.

The audience was silent, this forbidden area giant spirit god was naturally none other than Yao Ming. Just now, he rushed to the battlefield from a low position on the other side, and slapped Rodman with a head-on hot pot. He has not gained weight yet, and his defensive area on the defensive end is beyond imagination. Boss Fu's words, the big man who taught us, we are invincible, and it is gradually becoming a reality.

The Wizards were unfavorable, and the Rockets took the initiative at the beginning, relying on Yao Ming's consecutive points, and took a 6-point lead of 26:20 in the first quarter.

Hu Qingniu was not in a hurry and finally replaced a group of strong men in the second quarter, double Hardaway backcourt, Hill small forward, interior partners were Barkley and Ewing, Jordan was still sitting on the cold bench, and the complaining eyes made Hu Qingniu's heart furious.

This group of old oilers who have been holding back for a whole section of the court are like babies who are waiting to pay and meet a pacifier. The Wizards in the second quarter immediately became excited.

Thiem was quick with the ball, and the other four old oilers were as fast as the foxes.

Penny should probably be a pitch fox, and in the midst of a quick run, he cut through Thiem's pass in the air to create a big crossover.

All this happened too fast, like a tornado, and the Boss Fu on the opposite side was a little unable to find the north for an instant, and he made a mistake in judgment.

The penny body feels like he is in a no-man's land on the court, and Hu Qingniu keeps admiring it in his heart, this is the beauty of basketball.

Pennies flashed past and stepped into an unobstructed exclusion zone.

Yao Ming hurriedly pulled out to block it, but Ewing behind him was missed. As a penny who passes first, he will not let go of such an opportunity.

With a shake of his little hand, he begged to take off almost vertically from his hand and crossed Yao Ming. At this height, Yao Ming, whose height has risen by 50 centimeters, can only look at the ball and sigh.

“Boom!”

Without any suspense, the Rockets' basket was raging. An air-catching dunk from Ewing and Penny.

Looking at Ewing, the gorilla who raised his hand and roared angrily, Yao Ming reacted that this was actually an opponent who was not much inferior to O'Neill.

Unlike Bradley and Big Ben, the consequence of shorting Ewing is to give away two points. But the team's defensive holes must be filled, and Yao Ming couldn't help but fall into a dilemma.

The Wizards' offense became fluid after the lineup change, and everyone on the court had a wealth of offensive skills and everyone was happy to share the ball. To put it simply, the Wizards played like the American Dream Team.

Fortunately, Hu Qingniu let this lineup play for five minutes before being replaced. It was still the lineup from the first quarter. Focusing on young people is the main theme of this game, and veterans can't withstand consumption and losses.
