The Cruelty of the NBA

Chapter 167: , The Lakers Mingpai.

On the night that McMillan was identified as a torn Achilles tendon, the Blazers announced that General Manager Pritchard was also the temporary coach of the Blazers.

Pritchard had been a Trail Blazers coach for a while, and after a few years, he had to regain his motivation.

The Blazers coach McMillan was quickly injured when he was injured in the domestic game.

The outside world has expressed tragic "poor" feelings for the Blazers.

This trailblazer may be the most seriously injured team in NBA history.

ESPN opened a special program to talk about the Blazers' injuries.

The theme of the show is "When will the Blazers "curse of injury" be solved? 5 big stars fell, the coach has not been spared! 》

They focused on analyzing the Blazers' history of injury spells.

The amazing thing that the coach can tear the Achilles tendon in a training game can happen in Portland.

This also made Evans from Portland desperately say: "The city was hit again by injuries and the Trail Blazers are over!"

"Turning back the history of the Trail Blazers, I found that this team has been hit by repeated injuries in history. Portland is actually a "injury city."

"Portland is a city that even Jordan can give up."

"At the 1984 NBA Draft, the Blazers held the No. 2 pick. After the Rockets picked the University of Houston center Olajuwon with the top pick, the Blazers did not choose Michael Jordan. They chose from Kentucky. Sam Bowie, 2.16 meters tall at the university, and the Chicago Bulls chose Jordan in the third pick. A few years later, the "flying man" wearing the No. 23 jersey brought Chicago six championship trophy, and Bowie, who was selected by the Portlanders, was lying on the bed early and had a wound, and his entire career was inactive."

"The reason why Portland became a "broken city" is directly related to the management's vision. After choosing Bowie to give up Jordan to become Xiao Bing, they should have learned a lesson. Unexpectedly, similar mistakes, Portland people again Repeat offense. In the 2007 draft, Durant was not selected, but he chose Oden, who was constantly injured at the university, and the Blazers once again tasted the pain of the injury."

"Here is the sadness of the big center."

"In the history of the Trail Blazers, there are many examples of big men falling to Portland. In addition to Bowie and Oden, there is also Bill Wharton, one of the legendary centers of the NBA."

"Walton, who was the most outstanding player in the United States for the third consecutive year in the 1974 Draft, was selected by the Trail Blazers with the No. 1 pick. He played for the Trail Blazers for three years and achieved good results, not only helping the team win 1977. The championship and the MVP of the Finals. But he was often troubled by injuries during the five years of the Trail Blazers, especially in the last year of this team, he injured his left foot and right arm successively, and As a result, he missed all the games of the 1978-1979 season. He was repeatedly injured, and Wharton turned angry at the team doctor. At that time, he publicly bombarded the Blazers team doctor for many times. He said that he wanted to be traded to other teams. 1979 In May 2014, Wharton signed a seven-year, $7 million contract with his hometown team, the San Diego Clippers."

"In addition to this, the legendary European center Sabonis, known as the "Roof of the World", was also hit by injuries while playing for the Trail Blazers. The Lithuanian star has stayed with the Trail Blazers for seven seasons. During this period, his knee, Achilles tendon and arm were injured, which affected his performance."

"Even though the Blazers continued to suffer from injuries, but they did not give up, Paul Allen did not believe in the curse."

"This season, the Blazers are seriously injured to the top, Roy missed 17 games, Fernandes 15 games, Batum 28 games, Oden 20 games, and Przebilla 16 games. This season, they have 9 The players missed due to injury, and even now, their head coach has fallen."

"In the eyes of the Blazers who just diagnosed cancer boss Paul Allen this year, Portland is a "wound city". The argument was incorrect. He said in an interview last night that he thinks that not only the Blazers have The injury is bothering, and so are the other teams. "If someone insists on pulling this issue together, I can't help it anyway. I don't believe this anyway. "Allen said," We provide first-class medical care for the players, doctors are first-class, NBA competition is so fierce, how can the players remain healthy forever? ""

"Despite Allen's continuous support for the team, many fans still believe in the existence of this curse. There is no way. Allen was also diagnosed with cancer this year."

"Fortunately for the Blazers, Roy and Xue Ding are still playing in the team's dream."

"Pray, they stay healthy."

…..

While the ESPN program is airing.

Pritchard also held a player meeting for the first time.

The reason why the player meeting was held overnight was because Aldridge showed Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome during the cardiac examination. Aldridge will take a rest for at least one week starting tomorrow.

This is a huge blow to the Trail Blazers. The Blazers have to mobilize two players from the Development League to gather the number of applicants, otherwise they may not even be able to play at any time.

Now they only have 7 players who can play normally, the main starter and rotation are only 6 people, and there is a injured Roy in the middle.

Xue Ding, Roy and others and Pritchard and the teaching assistants reformulated the next battle plan.

The Blazers have just suffered an away game losing streak.

The opponents of the next Blazers are very strong.

The Los Angeles Lakers challenge the Rose Garden Arena away.

This game is the focal battle in the United States.

Well known.

The Lakers have a magic spell in the Rose Garden, and Kobe himself has left countless memories in the Rose Garden.

There were double lore pioneers, but of course it was more of a continuous fiasco.

Kobe Bryant is 6 wins and 24 losses here, as the Lakers have been 8 wins and 29 losses here in the past 18 seasons, this is the city where they lose the most! !

This afternoon, the Lakers have already reached the Blazers.

Hear bad news from the Blazers.

Kobe said the first time: "I wish them good luck, but this is our opportunity, playing here is almost driving me crazy, so we have to urgently end this embarrassing record, everyone must play Get up."

The LA reporter who accompanied the team also laughed at himself: "Maybe the Lakers should stay in Los Angeles~lightnovelpub.net~ They should not come to Portland."

Lakers center Andrew Bynum does not believe in the Rose Garden spell.

Bynum said: "I think the fans at their home gave them great energy. The Blazers beat us with a transfer ball tactic every year. The defense of the transfer ball is our weakest link. We need to change this."

Gasol also said: "Tomorrow we will end the record of unbeatable victory in Portland."

Zen Jackson said: "OMG, Nate is also hurt, I hope they are lucky, but tomorrow we will not be merciful."

Artest, who was repeatedly humiliated by Xue Ding in the last game, said: "Tomorrow I will beat that Chinese rookie."

After interviewing the players in the hotel, the LA reporter broke out the Lakers starting list tomorrow from the assistant.

"Kobe, Odom, Artest, Gasol, Bynum"

In response to this list, Chinese reporters commented: "The Lakers have clearly played against the Blazers."
