Chapter 319: Meng Xu returns
"Tom, I'm going to play." Just when the fourth quarter of the game between the Knicks and the Pacers was in full swing, Meng Xu was sitting in the locker room with the team doctor Tom Cross at the moment, and he could only watch the game that should have belonged to him through the TV broadcast. After Meng Xu left the court, the Pacers could not find the rhythm of the game, and in the chaos, they were overtaken by the Knicks.
"Meng, Larry said that you can't play again in this game." Tom Cross, the Pacers' team doctor, pressed down on Meng Xu, who was about to get up, and reapplied the ice pack to Meng Xu's knees, which were still a little red and swollen.
"Tom, I'm fine." Meng Xu got rid of Tom Cross, stood up forcibly, raised his legs, and then shook his arms again, indicating that he was fine. And when Meng Xu finished these actions, he saw Tom Cross blocking the door of the locker room with his body and refusing to let Meng Xu out, Meng Xu stepped forward and pressed his hand on his shoulder: "Tom, I hate failure, especially in Madison, and I can't just sit here and watch the team lose and do nothing myself, I think you'll understand me." β
"But, Larryγγγγγγ" As the team doctor of the Pacers, Tom Cross is naturally a die-hard fan of the Pacers, and he doesn't want to see the Pacers lose, especially his sworn enemy Knicks, but Larry Bird just gave Tom Cross a strict order to watch Meng Xu, let him rest in the locker room, and then wait until the game is over, and then go to the hospital for a thorough examination.
"Larry, you don't have to worry about it, I'll explain it to him." Meng Xu said and turned his head to look at the TV, it happened to be the official timeout of the fourth quarter, Larry Bird was arranging the tactics at the last moment with a worried face, seeing the scene on the TV, Meng Xu continued with some anxiety: "We are already 5 points behind, there are 6 minutes left in the time, and it will be too late soon."
"Okay."
γγγγγγ
At the end of the timeout, after the players of the two teams returned to the field, the fans on both sides of the player tunnel became noisy, and there were even bursts of cheers, just when the fans in other areas and the players on the field looked at the vicinity of the commotion near the player tunnel with some confusion, the broadcast camera on the field immediately switched to the exit of the player tunnel, and Meng Xu, who took off his coat while walking, revealing the No. 5 jersey, appeared in the camera, after a short commotion, The entire Madison Garden Plaza immediately resounded with applause and cheers, and this applause and cheers were undoubtedly given to Meng Xu.
Because of the elegant shooting, coquettish passing, and some similarities with Hardaway's style of play, many Hardaway fans have now become Meng Xu's fans, plus the huge local Chinese community in New York, so Meng Xu also has a lot of fans in New York, which can be seen from the sales of Meng Xu's signature sneakers "Odin Generation" this year, "Odin Generation" in Indiana, where the Pacers are located, the total sales are only less than 400,000 pairs, but in New York, the "Odin Generation" has sold more than 300,000 pairs, And this is precisely the basketball person in charge of Mike's company, who constantly regrets one thing, Meng Xu joined the Knicks' sworn enemy, and he can sell 300,000 pairs of shoes in New York, if Meng Xu chooses to join the Knicks, it is not a guaranteed 1 million pairs to start.
"Is Meng going to play again? Looks like he's still having some problems with his legs. In the applause of the audience, Magic Johnson on the commentary seat also stood up and gave Meng Xu applause, but in his heart Magic Johnson very much does not want Meng Xu to play again, many players are like Meng Xu, small injuries and illnesses do not care, and then accumulate small into big, and finally affect the entire career, Magic Johnson is a very valued player Penny Hardaway, it is because of this that he has gone from a genius to everyone.
"Meng's desire to win is too strong, which is a good thing and a bad thing for a professional player." Seeing Meng Xu walking out of the player's tunnel, Michaels's mind, many familiar faces instantly appeared, they are also the same as Meng Xu, they have a very strong desire to survive, in order to win, they work the court, with injuries on the field, with illness on the field is commonplace, but their endings are different, some step by step to the top, some are gloomy.
"Larry, we can't lose this game, trust me, I'm fine." Meng Xu walked to the Pacers' bench and saw that Larry Bird wanted to stop him, Meng Xu didn't wait for him to speak, so he took the lead in speaking: "Larry, 4 minutes, give me 4 minutes." β
"Okay." Larry Bird looked at Meng Xu, and after a great ideological struggle, he finally nodded and agreed to Meng Xu's request. After Sprewell maliciously fouled Meng Xu, although the team doctor's examination was not a big deal, but looking at Meng Xu's red and swollen knees, Larry Bird was still a little uneasy, and immediately decided that he would rather lose this game than let Meng Xu risk injury and play again. Larry Bird, who retired due to injury, can best understand the impact of injury on a player, and Meng Xu is now shouldering all the hopes of the Pacers, so there can be no mistakes no matter what.
Just after Meng Xu warmed up on the sidelines, Larry Bird replaced Al Harrington with Meng Xu, and after Meng Xu came on the court, Jermaine O'Neal, James Posey, Reggie Miller and Jamal Tinsley, the rest of the Pacers' main players, all gathered around Meng Xu and high-fived each other with Meng Xu.
Because his knee is still slightly painful, after returning to the court, Meng Xu's movement speed is obviously slower than before, and the dribbling action is also a little stiff.
"Idiot, do you think you're Wesley? You don't deserve to lift his shoes. Originally, after Meng Xu returned to the court, Xiao Daolan was still a little worried, and even sat on the sidelines very quietly for a while, but seeing Meng Xu's state decline sharply, after hitting the iron with two shots under Glen Rice's defense, Xiao Daolan once again recovered Meng Xu's arrogance and arrogance before he came on the court, and even when Meng Xu passed by the court, he raised his middle finger towards Meng Xushu, although he was the owner of the Knicks, but Xiao Daolan's brainless behavior still attracted a boo.
"Wesley? Interesting. After hearing Xiao Daolan's sarcasm, Meng Xu showed a smile instead, Reed's return is a great moment that most NBA fans are familiar with, and he didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to replicate this special moment.
Because his right shoulder was punched hard by Sprewell just now, Meng Xu's arm is still a little weak, which is also the reason why Meng Xu's two consecutive shots just now were short, but Meng Xu also has a special weapon to use.
"Glenn, watch your placeholder." Back on the offensive end, Meng Xu, who received a pass from Jamal Tinsley, rushed towards the Knicks' basket without hesitation, and Glen Les, who successfully defended Meng Xu twice in a row, was instantly left behind by Meng Xu. After Meng Xu missed two consecutive shots, Glen Les, who was full of confidence, deliberately put Meng Xu half a step when defending, but it was this half step that gave Meng Xu enough starting space, and the straight line acceleration after a feint, Meng Xu got rid of Glen Les very easily.
