Chapter Seventy-Four: No Locomotive Is the Difference Between Salted Fish?
Yang Long still saw the news on the news website, which Yang Long had been worried about for a long time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
He's not without effort, as was Grant Hill's injury.
On the day Grant Hill came to Duke, Yang Long seized the opportunity to remind him, but Hill still chose to play and repeated the mistakes of history.
Now, that bad news comes from Jay Williams.
In the past season, Williams' performance can be said to have been unsatisfactory. In the NCAA, he played the shooting guard position, but when he came to the NBA, the Bulls made him a playmaker position due to his height disadvantage, and Williams was a little uncomfortable at first. But as the season progressed, he began to slowly adapt to the role of point guard, and as a rookie member, he also played a ****** of 25 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists.
This injury almost ruined Williams' career.
In June, when Williams was speeding through his heavy bike, he was so fast that he couldn't make any salvage action when the bike lost control. The locomotive crashed straight into the telephone pole on the side of the road, and Williams was thrown far away, perhaps feeling the joy of flying as he glided through the air, but the pain stayed with him from the moment he landed.
Williams felt a heart-rending pain in his left knee, and he struggled to his feet, pulling the phone out of his pocket and calling for help.
The result of the accident was heart-wrenching, Williams suffered a torn ligament in his left knee and three major nerves in his left leg were severely damaged, facing an end-of-life situation in which his life was in jeopardy.
What else can Yang Long say? From the beginning, he knew that this ending was that people could only control their own destiny, and this was Williams' choice. Yang Long doesn't have the ability to turn back time, maybe all he can do now is send his own friend's greetings to the unfortunate Williams.
Taking Wu Shuang with him, Yang Long bought some fruits and nutritional products at the mall and set out on the road to visit Williams. When he came to the United States, Yang Long himself, including the people around him, had not yet been hospitalized, and Yang Long was not an American, so Yang Long did not know if it was popular in the United States to bring gifts when visiting patients. But this is a very normal move in China, Yang Long thought, even if it is not popular in the United States to bring a little gifts, these gifts can show his care.
Coming to the hospital, Yang Long asked Williams about his hospital room.
Williams was lying on a pale hospital bed, his left leg dangling in the air with a bandage, and he looked rather bad.
Yang Long had a chill down his spine, and he knew what it meant to be a basketball player with such an injury.
"Hey, Jay, we've come to see you!" Yang Long and Wu Shuang walked into the ward and put the gift in their hands beside Williams' bedside.
"Hey, Yang, why are you here, find a place to sit!" Williams was a little surprised that Yang Long could come, because he didn't tell Yang Long the news of his surprise, in fact, he didn't specifically tell someone, and if something like this happened, he could only bear the consequences alone. Williams felt Yang Long's care, he was the eye of the 02 draft, and the rookie contract was 3 years and 8.71 million US dollars, and these gifts brought by Yang Long were nothing in his eyes, but 'a thousand miles to send goose feathers is light', Yang Long's care still moved him very much.
"I saw the report on the news," although Yang Long Williams' injury came from his own choice, but Yang Long still felt a little guilty, in addition to guilt, he also had a little dissatisfaction with Williams's character, you said that you like locomotives, just drive a locomotive, but you soar to 120 miles is your own fault...... Although he complained a little, Yang Long did not forget the purpose of his trip, and he sent condolences: "How are you feeling now?" Is it better? ”
"Oh, no, I feel terrible." Williams, who was half-lying down, looked very frustrated, and apparently he knew the severity of the injury, "me, I messed up. ”
For a while, Yang Long didn't know how to comfort Williams in front of him, he even thought that Williams was strong enough, at least he still kept his composure, if the person lying on the bed was him, could he stay calm?
"Fuck-shit, this is such a TMD fuck thing, I hate that rock in the road!" Williams smiled bitterly to himself, "You know, Yang, maybe I should have followed your advice at the time. ”
Yang Long knew the cause of the locomotive accident, that is, an unknown stone on the road, which caused the locomotive to lose control at high speed. To Yang Long's surprise, Williams still remembered his advice that afternoon, and Yang Long thought that Williams had already thrown that conversation out of the clouds: "Don't regret and blame yourself now, taking care of your injuries is your top priority now." ”
"No, it's not, Yang," Williams chuckled dryly a few more times, it was hard to imagine that he could laugh in the face of such an embarrassment and the extreme pain in his left leg, "I don't think I should have listened to you, but I don't regret it. I said at the time, I won't give up on locomotives, I love them. ”
"Don't you regret even now?" Yang Long also smiled helplessly, now that his legs are broken, he also said that he doesn't regret it, isn't this a swollen face and a fat man?
"No, no regrets." Williams shook his head, even the slightest shaking sent excruciating pain to his left leg, and he gritted his teeth, "If I could do it all over again, I would still ride a motorcycle." That feeling, like flying, that's the feeling of freedom, man, you know what I'm talking about! ”
"Okay, but what if you knew it could threaten your basketball career?" In the days when he was a teammate with Williams, Yang Long still hitchhiked a few times, although Yang Long was terrified every time, but aside from this feeling, the speeding locomotive did give people a refreshing feeling.
Williams was silent, as if weighing the weight of the basketball and the locomotive, and finally, he made a judgment: "I still can't let go of the locomotive, it's as important as the basketball." I don't have a locomotive, what's the difference between it and salted fish? ”
That's love, right?
"I see, Jay, now you can recover from your injuries, I'm sure you'll be able to return to the game!" Treating basketball, Yang Long thought that he should be the same, he couldn't do without basketball, without basketball, he would lose his direction, and there was no difference between him and salted fish.
"I hope so!" Williams remembered the doctor's words, that is, if he did not amputate his leg, his life would be at risk, which was a situation that Williams could not accept in any case, amputation, he would not only lose the basketball, but also the locomotive, both of which were far away from him, it was better to kill him. "I heard you signed with Team Rocket, congratulations, bro!"
"Eh, it's not just a guarantee contract!" The news that Yang Long and the Rockets signed as a free agent has been announced.
"I'm sure you can! Haha," Williams half-sat and hammered Yang Long's chest, "man, I know what you're capable of!" ”
I'm sure I can! That's what Yang Long told himself.
For the sake of his love, even if he breaks his leg, he will not regret it, at first glance, this may be a sign of Williams' hard mouth, but is it really the case?
In this life, if you don't have a love, what's the difference between it and salted fish?
