Chapter 1235 The curse of injury, a wave of unrest and another wave

The most unfortunate thing is that after Bosh left the field, Tang Qian fell into "injury" troubles after not playing for a long time.He twisted his ankle violently.But he forcefully kicked a few times, then reluctantly continued to go up, anyway, he didn't need to be checked, just survived this period of time.However, he still underestimated the impact of the injury on him.That's right, small injuries make players decline for a period of time, what about major injuries?It directly makes the athlete's sports career fall off a cliff, and in serious cases, he even retires directly.

Injuries are more serious than tigers. This is really the biggest problem in the sports world.

Some reporters also reacted quickly and attributed the injury of the Lakers to Brandon Knight's "curse attribute".Anyway, Brandon Knight has "cursed" many people, Kobe, Jordan, Irving, Sanders, etc., and now Tang Qian and Bosh have been added to the list.This made Brandon Knight's "curse of the backdrop" even more famous in the league.Of course, Tang Qian didn't believe this, but the injury was real. Because of the sprained ankle, his movement and explosiveness in the game were greatly affected. The most direct manifestation was the sharp decline in the shooting percentage on the offensive end. And the deterrence on the defensive end has dropped significantly.This allowed Kemba Walker, who performed extremely well for the Hornets tonight, to find an opportunity to attack in singles again. With Jeremy Lin's grabbing points on the bench, the Hornets actually reversed the situation.In the end, they narrowly beat the Los Angeles Lakers by 2 points.

It's like being upset.

This game was really dramatic. First, the Lakers declined before the battle and injured two main players. Then Kemba Walker, the core outside player of the Hornets, broke out in the game, and then the Lakers finally stabilized. Hold the situation and suppress the opponent.As a result, Chris Bosh, the team's No. 2 power forward, hit more than a dozen irons in a row, causing the opponent to chase him back.In the end, Tang Qian, the core boss of the Lakers, also sprained his ankle, and his competitive state plummeted, which eventually led to the game being overturned.

This is really, bad luck.

To use the words of Kemba Walker, the leader of the Hornets tonight, we were thrilled and lucky to win tonight.

Jeremy Lin also said: The Lakers are a very strong team. Fortunately, not all of them are healthy tonight. I wish them all well and get well soon.

After the game, Tang Qian resisted his ankle injury and answered a series of questions. Among them, ESPN was the most jumpy. Taking advantage of the Lakers' loss, he began to sarcasm, which made Tang Qian's face much uglier.The question Larry Brown has to face is, how many of the Lakers will be able to return in the next few games?What if you can't come back?

Injuries are something that cannot be ignored in professional sports, and Qiao Shen's body was close to being reimbursed in the second season.Therefore, this is an additional problem that professional athletes and professional teams must face and undertake.No one wants to be injured, but when an injury comes, it can only be faced.

Larry Brown's answer was very official, he didn't get into it at all, and he didn't seem to be in a good mood.

It doesn't matter that the winning streak is ended, and he even feels a little lucky, because the extra attention brought by this winning streak will cause people to have huge off-court pressure.This is not a good thing for the team's entire season if it is like this for a long time.The Lakers also scored 31 consecutive victories last season, but then the team was overdrawn a lot, and it took a while to recover.Larry Brown is a typical pragmatist, so he never thought these things were useful. NBA, as long as the final coaching team wins the Larry O'Brien Cup.The rest are "things outside the body".

Optional.

The main reason is the injury problem. This time, 4 players fell down. Although it may not last for a long time, in the last few games, we should carefully consider how to deploy troops.He is a very experienced head coach with rich coaching experience. Few people in the NBA dare to say that he is better than him. From the 70s to now, he has never encountered any situation.Just adjust your mentality and meet the challenge.

Tang Qian's injury is not serious, and he fully recovered the next day, but Butler and Rondo are still not recovering, and it is estimated that they will have a truce for 1-2 games.These are all small problems, mainly on Chris Bosh's side, a thunderbolt from the blue made everyone a little confused.

The news given by the team's medical team is that an in-depth and detailed inspection is needed and temporarily entered the injury list.

That is to say, there is no exact comeback time, it seems that things are not so simple.

Bosh wasn't in a high mood either. Although he received greetings from the whole team, he still didn't want to talk much.

Perhaps, he had already guessed something, but... it was just a fluke.

After losing to the Hornets, the Lakers lost to the Boston Celtics in the next game.All of a sudden, there are three main players missing in this game, and anyone will play uncomfortable and incoherent.In addition, Farmar's point is not enough, and he has been targeted and bullied by his opponents for a long time.The same goes for this game.

The most different thing about Tang Qian in this game is that a defender with a height of only 175cm on the opposite side actually hit the team's No. 1 position!burst!up!It really exploded!This man was the only one who averaged 16+ points per game last season.This season's scoring average has exceeded 22+!This is considered a very good quasi-top scorer in the NBA!You have to know, he is still averaging 32 minutes per game.If it is increased to an average of 36 minutes per game, it will be infinitely close to the threshold of a first-class scorer with 25 points.So the appearance of this person caught Tang Qian and the Lakers a little by surprise.

Farmar was also beaten to a point of doubting his life. He couldn't believe that he was completely beaten by a person who was only 175 cm.To cite a few typical examples, Isaiah Thomas faced Farmar, and with an IN-OUT feint + a change of direction dribble, he easily threw off Farmar and scored.Facing Farmar, Isaiah Thomas made an IN-OUT + stride laterally + a cross step to break through to the right, shaking the defender clearly and confused.There was even a ball that the Lakers went to help defend, but this little man who was only 175cm forced a breakthrough with an ultra-short dribble and scored with archery on horseback.

This is too strong, it is completely a scoring machine.

The head coach of this team is called Brad Stevens, and he looks like a pretty young handsome guy.How old is this year?Just turned 39 years old in a few months.This is very young in the NBA coaching world.And compared to the mediocre leadership of the previous seasons, there were no bright spots. Starting from this season, there have been significant changes.The Celtics have quietly entered the playoffs since last season.This season's record is ranked between fourth and fifth in the Eastern Conference.From this point of view, without any big names in hand, his coaching ability is more about "slow work and careful work".It's not Larry Brown, the type of head coach who can change a team quickly and rise quickly.

This season, the Celtics' style of play has also become more and more tough and iron-blooded, as if their green blood has begun to faintly throb in the team again.It's a pity that Tang Qian didn't know about these things in advance, because since the beginning of this season, he has already lost the prophetic period, the rise of Isiah Thomas, and the coaching ability of "Young Marshal" Brad Stevens , he basically didn't know it at all.

If Tang Qian had dug deep into the background information of Brad Stevens, he would have discovered that this guy has led the school to the NCAA finals twice at such a young age in the NCAA!This difficulty is no small matter!It was a single-elimination game, and the probability of a dark horse was too high, but he still brought an unknown university called Butler University, at least an unknown university in the history of basketball, into the arena that countless college players dreamed of. .

Simply give an example, and you will know how terrifying this guy is. In recent years, this university has only produced 2 NBA players.In other words, most of them are college students who do not have the strength to play in the NBA.However, he was forced to enter the finals, still twice.In the NCAA basketball system where coaches are the most important and players are second, this is enough to prove the personal ability of this young head coach.By the way, the famous old K, the legendary NCAA head coach and the absolute head coach of the American men's basketball team in recent years, actually publicly recruited him as his team's successor.

Looking at it this way, you will know that this man is actually as sharp in strength as in appearance.

It's just a pity that the Celtics really don't have anyone to use for him now, so he has this kind of "smart woman can't cook without rice" dilemma.However, the performance of the Celtics has been rising all the way.Steady improvement season after season.

Walked extremely steadily.

Isaiah Thomas was completely activated by him. Secondly, in this game, Stevens also arranged for Evan Turner to become the team's substitute surprise soldier. Evan Turner was also very competitive. 20 feet down.This team, the Celtics, how should I put it, the respect for the head coach and the importance of the head coach seem to have always been the biggest in the NBA.

This has been the case since "Cardinal" Auerbach.

The authority of the head coach is among the best in the NBA.

The Lakers lost to the Celtics in this game, so many people couldn't sit still and began to spray the Lakers. Tang Qian, as the team's boss, was naturally one of the main targets of being sprayed.In fact, the Lakers didn't lose much in these two games, they were all by a few points. This is still the case when the team lost 3 starting generals, but the media didn't care about these. .

What is the point of the Lakers' season slump?

Why did the Lakers turn from prosperity to decline this season?
Why is Dongfang Tang's leadership temperament doubtful and it is difficult to lead the team to victory?

In particular, the former "Brickman Calls the Beast" who said that the leader of the Lakers was Bosh, now he shouted even more fiercely, directly claiming that the Lakers lost in these two games is the best evidence.Without Bosh, Tang Qian could not meet everyone's expectations.

Khloe Kardashian also liked the tweet of "Bricks call a beast" as if venting her anger, which raised the conflict between her and the Lakers or the number 29 of the Lakers again.

Tang Qian didn't say anything. He didn't bother to beep after losing the game. Besides, he just wanted to know when Butler, Rondo, and Bosh would return.Otherwise, the tacit understanding of this mixed lineup is far inferior to the previous starting five. On New Year's Day in 2016, the Lakers finally won against the super bad Philadelphia 76ers.The 2-game losing streak ended.Rondo returned in this game, and the overall operation of the team has become much smoother.

But it didn't make the fans happy for a few days, and the Lakers lost to the Phoenix Suns again 2 days later.

In this game, Ariza was also unable to play because of a relatively serious cold. Without his and Butler's flank defense, the Lakers' flanks were bombarded by the Suns.Especially the rookie named Devin Booker, he seized the opportunity to perform in this game and scored 33 points.He made 8 of 7 three-pointers.Let the Lakers die in a wave of the third quarter.

In the last 4 games, with 1 win and 3 losses, the Lakers' record was once again surpassed by the Thunder and returned to fourth place in the Western Conference.The team's record has also become 27 wins and 9 losses.

After the game, Tang Qian lost his re-elected Western Conference Player of the Week, because this record was too poor, and was taken away by Curry again.And the most speechless thing is that the best of the month, which was originally a certainty, was awarded to the almost undefeated Golden State Warriors by the league because of the lack of strength in the last few games.

There is no way, Curry has won all the recent period, and the data is also very strong. The Lakers' record has declined and they have lost too many impression points.

So, given Curry, you have no way to say anything.

It's better for you to lead the team with this record. What can you say?I can only suffer from being dumb.

The best player of the month in the Eastern Conference in December was taken away by John Wall. Last week, his data was almost 12+25+5+12, and his unstable three-pointers all shot close to 2%.Give it to him, no problem.James is also in a similar situation as Tang Qian. In December, the Cavaliers suffered a losing streak at the end of the month, ruining his impression points.So I missed the best award of the month.

On January 1th, the Lakers lost another game and were picked off by the Spurs. Tang Qian was completely surrounded in this game, and he didn't feel good on the outside. In addition, the most important thing was that the overall defensive strength declined greatly. The biggest loss of the Lakers this season appeared. 5-77, a full 107 points lost the game at Staples Center.

2 consecutive losses, the team record is 27 wins and 10 losses.

Before the next game, Butler, who was supposed to resume playing, stepped on the instep of a defensive player during training. Gary Vitti told the team that Butler would rest for another 3 to 4 days.This made Butler feel ashamed, because he also knows how much the team needs him to come back now.Ariza is back, and Rondo is not feeling well, so he has to temporarily take a game off.

If it weren't for Tang Qian's abnormal "recovery ability", he would probably have to rest for a while after the Hornets game due to a sprain.

In addition, Pierce and Nick Young also appeared uncomfortable, and the Lakers seemed to have fallen into the "injury curse" for a while.

At this time, a bad news once again dealt a heavy blow to the Los Angeles Lakers.That is the team's starting star at No. 4, Chris Bosh was diagnosed with a blood clot in his calf.And according to the team's medical team, it's not a very slight degree, and it's more serious than the pulmonary thrombosis last season.Three pieces of news. First, Chris Bosh will take an indefinite hiatus from today, and the time for his comeback is yet to be determined.Second, because of the need to take anticoagulant treatment, Chris Bosh cannot perform any physical confrontational sports and physical confrontational exercises during treatment.This is equivalent to the state of Bosh this season, and it will probably be scrapped.Because basically you can't touch the ball and you can't train.This is quite fatal for a professional player.Third, and the last point, Bosh's lung blood clot also showed signs of recurrence.

Triple news shows one point, Bosh this season, cold.

The Los Angeles Lakers don't have to count on his return.

Bad news came one after another, which made the atmosphere in the Lakers locker room very depressed.

In addition, the "cousin" of the Kings, DeMarcus Cousins, is still talking nonsense, satirizing the All-Star voting system, well, in fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is complaining for himself and complaining for himself.This made the Lakers' number one star feel depressed and annoyed.

Coupled with the fact that reporters kept coming and beeping, Tang Qian finally couldn't help but said:
Since he thinks it's so unfair and feels like I'm robbing him of his All-Star starter, then I'll let him do it.

Tonight, I'm going to blow him up!

That's it.

After speaking, Tang Qian left the reporter's encirclement impatiently, and entered the locker room without saying a word.
