Chapter 1041
In a blink of an eye, half of April has passed, which means that there are only half a month left for the 2011-2012 NBA regular season.

Even for some teams, it's not even half a month, and their schedule is coming to an end on the [-]th, and there are only a few games left at most.

So the closer it got to this time, the more intense the competition among the teams, and the teams ranked around No. 8 in the East and West started the final competition.The teams that failed to enter the top eight launched a final sprint, wanting to reach the top eight and catch up with the last train of the playoffs.Has entered the top eight, but the lower-ranked teams must win every game as much as possible, otherwise the playoff tickets may be snatched away if they don't pay attention to their hands.

For a time, the nba game became polarized.

Some games, such as the Heat and Bulls, who are No. [-] and No. [-] in the Eastern Conference, face the Bobcats, Hornets, and Wizards, who are at the bottom of the league. Naturally, the games are not interesting, because no matter whether they win or lose, they will not affect the ranking of both sides.It is impossible for the Bobcats, Hornets, and Wizards to enter the playoffs on their own initiative. They just want to end the season early so that they can try their luck in the draft in June.

Teams such as the Heat and the Bulls have begun to appropriately reduce the playing time of their main players, allowing players to get more rest and prepare for the playoffs.

As for winning or losing, it doesn't matter. It's normal for the Heat and the Bulls to win, and it's no big deal to lose.

Since it doesn't matter whether you win or lose, what's the point of the game?
And another part of the game is extremely fierce, such as Magic vs Celtics, Jazz vs Mavericks.

The Magic are now ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference, but their position is not stable, and they still want to go further, because the eighth position is really not very good, and they will face the Heat in the first round.

The Celtics are about to lose the sixth place in the Eastern Conference due to consecutive losses during this period.

Such a match between the two teams will naturally be a fierce fight, and they all want to fight for the next victory.

Bass suffered an unwarranted disaster, and he was facing the Magic. He was not targeted, but he was scolded to death by Celtics fans. If it wasn't for him, how could the Celtics lose consecutively? , fell to the point where it is now?

As for the Jazz and the Mavericks, one is ninth in the Western Conference and the other is eighth in the Western Conference. Their records are close to each other. Naturally, it is a battle between dragons and tigers for tickets to the playoffs.

In fact, even a team like the 76ers is not easy at the moment, because they are two games behind the Knicks. The 76ers have lost consecutive games, but the Knicks have continued to win.

Under the ebb and flow, the 76ers not only fell to fourth in the Eastern Conference, two games away from the Knicks, but also the fifth Pacers in the Eastern Conference are still eyeing, and they are only two games away from the 76ers. field.

Fortunately, Qin Hao is about to make a comeback.

On this day, Qin Hao, accompanied by coach Luke and the team doctor, went to the hospital for an examination of his ankle injury.

Before, the doctor estimated that Qin Hao's injury would take 1-2 weeks to recover, but after some examinations, the doctor couldn't help but be amazed, because Qin Hao's ankle injury has fully recovered, as if he had never been injured.But it's only been a week, which is far less than what the doctor expected.

"Doctor." Coach Luke asked, "Does this mean that Qin can play?"

"Of course." The doctor said with a smile, "Qin's recovery far exceeded my expectations. This is different from person to person. Some people recover better and faster, while others take a slower time. Judging from the examination results, Qin 100% recovered haha ​​I think he's ready to play now."

As for why Qin Hao recovered so quickly, the doctor could only attribute it to "body constitution varies from person to person". In addition, it was only a minor injury after all, so he didn't care too much.

Anyway, the test result is ok.

"This is great." The 76ers team doctor said excitedly: "Qin can come back, and the next few games will be sure."

"Well." Coach Luke nodded with a smile, and said to Qin Hao: "Qin, you can play tomorrow. But I still have to tell you, be careful, and tell the team doctor immediately if you feel unwell. Your health is far better than these days. One game is important. If we lose these games, we can still enter the playoffs, but if your health has problems, we will be in trouble in the playoffs.”

Qin Hao naturally understands this truth, the playoffs are the key.

Qin Hao nodded: "Coach, don't worry, I know how to measure."

Just when Qin Hao recovered from his injury and was about to come back, Butler encountered trouble.

The Pistons ushered in a challenge from the Suns at home.

The Pistons currently rank ninth in the East, while the Suns rank tenth in the West.

During this period of time, with the outbreak of Butler, the Pistons' record has improved a lot, and they have rushed to ninth in the Eastern Conference. Although they are still three wins away from the previous eighth, they may not have a chance to catch up and squeeze into the top eight.The situation of the Suns is similar. Although they are ranked tenth in the West, they still have a chance.

Therefore, the confrontation between the two sides was naturally extremely fierce, playing the intensity of the playoffs, and the physical consumption of the players on both sides was almost reaching the limit after the fourth quarter.

In this case, Butler felt inaccurate on the outside, and could only hold the ball and hit the inside again and again, but his physical energy was also consumed a lot, and when the physical energy was exhausted, he was especially vulnerable to injury.

Once Butler broke through with the ball, but when he changed direction, he felt a pain in his knee and fell to the ground immediately.

This time everyone was scared.

The players of the Suns quickly stood aside, expressing that they did not touch Butler to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

No one touched Butler this time, but Butler exhausted too much physical energy. When he broke through, he forced a change of direction, but he didn't have any strength left. He was eager to win and exerted too much force. He accidentally sprained his knee.

The team doctor quickly checked Butler, but the result was not optimistic, because the knee is very fragile. Many basketball players lost the ability to run and jump because of the knee injury, and finally fell into a state of decline.

Knee injuries must not be taken lightly. Butler was rushed to the hospital. Affected by Butler's injury, and without Butler's strong point, the Pistons finally lost the game.

Afterwards, Butler's injury diagnosis came out. It was a slight tear of the medial collateral ligament of the knee. The situation was better than expected, but it was more severe than an ordinary sprain. It is expected to take 2-3 months to recover.

In other words, Butler is reimbursed for the season.

With Butler reimbursed for the season, the Pistons' hopes of making the playoffs were also shattered.
