I'm good at basketball too

The news of Li Ran's injury caused an uproar.

You know, this is the first time he has been injured in more than two years of his career.

Reminiscent of his high-intensity game some time ago, his sluggish performance in the last game.

The most important thing is his previous serious injury experience.

This kind of thing is like a time bomb, you don't know when it will suddenly explode and completely destroy you.

"Li Ran, are you okay?"

Rose called as soon as he saw the news.

What is Li Ran doing now?
He is sleeping late. . .

Li Ran, who was sleepy, picked up the phone and was taken aback when he heard Rose's anxious tone.

Then he realized belatedly that he was now a wounded person. . .

The reason why Li Ran was "injured" was because Calipari didn't want to use the reason of rotation to let Li Ran rest.

To put it bluntly, I can't afford to lose that person.

It's better to find an excuse to say that Li Ran was injured. . .

In this era, although the concept of rotation already exists, the absolute core of the team is still not easy to blatantly rotate.

Fans bought tickets just to see you.

There's no good reason not to play games. Isn't the money wasted?

However, the Grizzlies are not without reason.

In the physical examination report issued by the team doctor, Li Ran's physical condition came to a red light for the first time in more than a year since the Grizzlies arrived.

There were signs of fatigue in many of his muscles.

This is a very dangerous signal.

Li Ran really didn't expect the absence of the system, and the recovery potion alone would bring him such a big trouble.

He also honestly followed the team doctor's request to rest at home to recover his strength.

"I'm not injured, just a little tired, don't worry about me, I'll play in a few days."

"Well, I'm waiting for you in Chicago, I hope you can play then. See how my buddy abuses you."

When Ross heard that Li Ran was not injured, he made up his mind and said to Li Ran proudly.

Li Ran was taken aback, recalling the schedule of this season in his mind.

Only then did he discover that two games after the Clippers game, it happened that the Grizzlies were going to Chicago to play the Bulls.

Rose has performed very well this season. After two seasons of dormancy, the Windy City Rose has finally begun to bloom.

From the season so far, he has averaged 27.6 points, 5.7 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game, shooting 49.8% from the field and 34.5% from the three-point range. The Bulls are now ranked second in the East with 17 wins and 4 losses.

The first is the Heat with 20 wins and 3 losses.

After losing to the Grizzlies, the Heat lost to the Lakers.

Of the few strong teams they encountered after the start of the game, the Heat didn't win any of them. . .

There are Nuggets, Bulls, Jazz and other teams waiting for them.

After talking to Ross, Li Ran was completely awake.

He got up and went downstairs to make some food, and swiped his phone while eating.

The Grizzlies have a game tonight, but he doesn't have to play.

The Grizzlies are now 20-1.

Their opponent today is the Jazz.

After eating, Li Ran drove to the arena.

The trainer planned some low-intensity recovery training for Li Ran. While Li Ran was bored shooting shots, he watched the training game on the other side.

One side is obviously tonight's starting lineup, Duncan, Dabaibian, Pickled Pepper, Kirilenko, Jeremy Lin.

On the other side is the bench lineup led by Curry and Xiaojia who have just been able to train with the team but are unable to play.

Curry, Ke 6, McGrady, Yi Jianlian, Xiaojia.

Just looking at the strength on paper, the substitute is even stronger than the starter.

In the matchup, Calipari can also arrange it.

Dabaibian played against Xiaojia, Ah Lian played against Duncan, Curry played against Jeremy Lin, Kirilenko played against Ke6, and McGrady played against Pickled Pepper.

Although McGrady is like a mascot in the Grizzlies now, his rich experience can also help pickled peppers grow well.

The main focus of the Grizzlies this season is to train newcomers.

Including Curry, the potential of the rookies selected by the Grizzlies in the past two years can only be described as horror.

Curry, Paojiao, Dabaibian, Jeremy Lin, if these players are all at their peak, they are enough to form a championship lineup.

Li Ran cast another group, then simply walked to another field, sat down and watched the training match.

Pickle hit McGrady with the ball.

McGrady stood in front of Paojiao with sleepy eyes. The injury had greatly reduced his athletic ability, so it was really difficult to face Paojiao.

The breakthrough after the pickled pepper's tentative step directly passed McGrady, and McGrady just stretched out his hand and let him pass.

Because there is Xiaojia behind.

Pickled Pepper's mid-range shot was interfered by Xiaojia, and Duncan pressed the UAE to grab an offensive rebound and make a tip-up.

Next, Ke 6 broke through and scored, and Curry hit a three-pointer from the outside.

Jeremy Lin was directly blocked by the United Arab Emirates and didn't know the east, west, south, north, and south. Curry's three-pointer was completely open.

Lin's crazy defense has a long way to go.

Li Ran watched with relish, and the two teams on the field were evenly matched.

This is already better than many NBA-level matchups.

Three-pointers, breakthroughs, defense, and coordination are not lacking at all.

Calipari did not know when he sat next to Li Ran.

"Both played well, I'm curious how you know they're all so good."

Calipari sat on the floor and asked curiously.

Paojiao pushed and counterattacked quickly. After entering the free throw line, Dafengche dunked successfully, and nine people on the field applauded together.

The dunk of pickled peppers is really pretty.

After playing for 10 minutes, Calipari stopped the training match, and then began to explain the problems in the game one by one.

At the same time, there are several groups of players on the sidelines conducting one-on-one guidance.

Duncan looked at Dabai, and Xiao Jia watched from the side, learning from Duncan and teaching Dabai at the same time, which felt like three generations of grandparents. . .

McGrady is instructing Pickled Pepper how to do certain actions to be more efficient. In Pickled Pepper, McGrady seems to see the shadow of his youth.

Excellent physical fitness, elegant and unrestrained style of play, good at offense and defense.

McGrady now has nothing to pursue except a ring.

Although he is only 32 years old now, he is plagued by that damn injury, and his ability to move on the court is as slow as a 40-year-old man.

His back injury is too difficult. Although Pera has arranged for the best sports science experts in the United States to consult McGrady, no one can guarantee his recovery.

So now, the team has no requirements for McGrady.

Simply put, just be happy.

What the team needs is his experience, and he needs to impart his experience to these rookies on the team.

Do you still expect him to score another 35 seconds and 13 points?
And McGrady did a good job in this one, mainly because he likes pickled peppers.

Paojiao also knows how important it is for McGrady, one of the four major shooting guards and the closest to his own style, to teach him personally, and he is also very serious about learning.

The current team atmosphere of the Grizzlies is basically such a situation. (end of this chapter)
