Chapter 243: Children of the City of Roses

When Roy saw Yiyang being forced into the bottom line, he almost felt that he had succeeded. Yiyang didn't have any room to shoot, so he could only choose to shoot this shot from behind the rebound.

What are the odds of scoring such a goal? Or what are the chances of a rookie scoring in such a situation? Anyway, in Roy's opinion, Yiyang can't succeed!

However, it was in such a difficult situation that the ball that Yiyang threw from behind the rebound fell hollow into the net!

"Boom!" Roy's knees suddenly went limp, and he fell to his knees under the basket.

"We succeeded, Yi!" Next to Roy are excited Mavericks players.

Nowitzki was the first to rush forward and pressed down on Yiyang, who was lying on the wooden floor after completing the lore. After that, there are Marion, Peja, Kidd, Stevenson...... This group of Dallas cowboys stacked Arhats around Roy.

Mougins hurriedly took out his camera and captured this contrasting scene.

On one side, there is Roy, who knelt down and covered his face in pain after defeat. On the other side, it was the ecstatic calf who had just returned to the line.

This set of photos will undoubtedly become one of the classics in NBA history. Of course, Mougins also knew that this moment, which represented the moment that belonged to Roy, was completely over.

In the 10-11 season, Roy's knees were swollen almost every day, until both knees had their meniscus removed. The doctor told him that every day from now on, you would have to live with the stinging pain of the bone, and to be on the safe side, you had better stop playing or ......

Otherwise, you may not be able to walk in the future!

So, should you listen to the doctor? Obviously, for Roy, who is just 27 years old and is in his playing years, he must not want to hear it.

Therefore, when he endured the pain today and was about to create a miracle of a 23-point reversal, his knee had reached the point where it could not be saved. But the saddest thing is that the miracle did not happen......

Roy put everything he had, he had no way back, and he didn't even care if it would cost him an entire career. That miracle, Roy had even touched it. It's just that in the end, the Chinese boy from Wood District gave Roy a cruel ending.

That's what the NBA is, either you die or I live. To be merciful to one's opponent is to be cruel to oneself. If today's winner is Roy, isn't it another kind of cruelty to the Mavericks, who have a 23-point lead and are reversed?

Roy fell to his knees, feeling the sharp pain coming from his knee. He knew his time was up. Beside him was the laughing Mavericks. Once it is, Roy really wants to switch positions with the Mavericks players......

"It was an unbelievable game! The two sides didn't decide until the last second! But for Trailblazer and Roy, it was a little too cruel. That's the way the playoffs are, though. There can be many people who perform well, but there is always only one winner. "Although the game is over, Kenny. Smith's heart couldn't calm down for half a day.

When Yiyang chose to shoot the basketball from behind the rebound, he thought that the game would definitely be dragged into overtime. However, this difficult shot was still hit.

You know, Yiyang only scored 14 points in the whole game today. Not counting the lore, Yiyang only had 12 points in the account before. It's when the form is not very good, that is, when Nowitzki, the star of the house, can't receive the ball. Yiyang, a first-year rookie from China, killed the game.

You don't have to think about it to know how much of an impact this will have tomorrow. No, maybe an hour after this game, Yiyang's name will sweep the world!

Slowly, Yiyang's teammates got up one by one, leaving Yiyang alone still lying on the ground.

They all stretched out their hands to Yiyang, who smiled, then grabbed the forearms of his teammates and finally stood up.

He looked around, and there weren't many Trail Blazers fans in the stands anymore. As for Brandon. Roy has also been supported by his teammates.

On the spot, in the Rose Garden Arena, only the victors remained, and only the Mavericks remained!

At this time, Carlisle finally squeezed into the crowd and gave Yiyang a big hug. Yesterday, Yiyang was still a child who was overwhelmed by public opinion in the outside world. Today, the kid saved the team.

Carlisle is grateful to Yiyang, and without him, the Mavericks might not have had such a smooth season this season. The action of the two hugging each other lasted for more than ten seconds, and if it weren't for Yiyang feeling out of breath, Carlisle might not have been willing to separate.

"Now, do you know what it's like to want to win and what it's like to be afraid of losing?" After letting go of Yiyang, Carlisle put a hand on Yiyang's shoulder and asked.

Yiyang still didn't speak, as usual, just nodded slightly.

"When you can take all the defeats, that's when you dominate the game."

Jordan's words, Yiyang used to like very much. But today, Yiyang really experienced the meaning of this sentence. This is like a key that opens the lock in Yiyang's heart.

Reporters who like to work against Yiyang may be disappointed, because from now on, their remarks will no longer be able to affect Yiyang's state on the basketball court......

※※※

Roy, supported by Aldridge and Miller Sr., limped towards the locker room.

scored 18 points in the final quarter and almost led the team to a 23-point comeback. The scene on the field just now flashed through Roy's mind.

But looking at it again, I now need help to even walk. Every friction between the bones in the knee caused Roy great pain.

In the final quarter, Roy contributed what little bit of health he had. The No. 7, who was still wearing a wet jersey, knew that everything was really over.

"Hey, it's okay, man. We ...... today We were just unlucky today. Aldridge comforted Roy as much as he comforted himself. In the next game, you rest and rest. We'll definitely bring the battlefield back to Portland! ”

Roy smiled, his eyes seemed a little moist. The guy stared at the white tube on the ceiling in the tunnel because he had read in the newspaper that looking directly at the tube could stop his tears.

"Do you know what I wish for most right now?" It was a long time before Roy spoke.

"Advance to the second round! Trust me, man, we can do it! A good 3-1 reversal, this kind of thing has not happened before! Aldridge said this on purpose, in fact he knew that for Roy, the season was basically over. His knees were worn out......

"No, that's not what I was hoping for. I hope that one day I can get back to the Rose Garden and shoot a few baskets without anyone being there, just me and the basket. I want to shoot again in my imagination, relive those games, immerse myself in memories, and dance one last time with this arena. Roy replied softly, even with a hint of a smile on his face. He has nothing left, and he doesn't have to be afraid of losing anymore.

"No, man..... Don't ......" After listening to Roy, Aldridge couldn't hold back. Fortunately, there are no reporters now, otherwise the picture of Aldridge crying his nose would definitely make headlines.

"Come on guys, I know my body. I've ...... I've quit. ”

This night in the Rose Garden seems to be more than just the joy after the win. Here, too, there is bitterness.

An hour later, when Yiyang took a shower and changed his clothes and walked out of the stadium to return to the hotel with his teammates, he suddenly stopped and glanced back at the rose garden.

At night, this huge structure looks like a huge shadow. The big words of the Rose Garden are not beautiful, they are beautiful, they are a huge poster hanging outside the arena.

On the poster, Roy, wearing a white jersey, is holding a basketball and smiling. This smile is warm, and it is easy to create a sense of trust in Roy. In fact, "Yellow Mamba" has never disappointed.

Seeing that Yiyang couldn't walk, Kidd took the initiative to come up, walked to Yiyang's side, and looked up at Roy's huge poster with him.

"I know what you're thinking, boy. But, that's Brandon. Roy's story. It's not perfect, but it's beautiful. ”

"Hmm...... Let's go, Jason. Yiyang withdrew his gaze, but left his respect for Roy.

"Let's go, go back to Dallas, and let's put an end to all this cruelty." Putting their arms on Yiyang's shoulders, Kidd and Yiyang slowly walked towards the Mavericks' bus.
