The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 276 Injuries
The results of the first round of the All-Star voting came out, and James was elected as the first-round voter.

The situation of James is not surprising. Zhang Xiaotian ranked No. 2 in the Eastern Conference forwards, and his victory over Anthony still aroused widespread discussion.

Zhang Xiaotian played the second position most of the season, but the team reported him as a striker, which is not a problem.

The number four of the Cavaliers actually paid more votes than the core players of other teams, and many people shouted that it was unfair.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't feel uninterested. In the third season of the league, his skin became thicker.

This is the support of the fans for him. The support of the fans is often unreasonable. Moreover, his performance really makes people excited, and he never relents at critical moments.

He thanked fans on social media and continued his campaign.

Paul George couldn't play this season, and the Knicks' record was too poor. After seeing the first round of voting, Zhang Xiaotian officially set his goal as the All-Star starter.

The No. 26 Cavaliers are playing back-to-back away games again, but the opponent is the Eastern Conference Magic.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't expect that there would be an accident in his body. He always thought that he was extremely durable, and even if he couldn't reach James' level, he wouldn't be too far behind.

But not long after the first quarter, when he landed a rebound after scrambling for a rebound, his feet hurt unbearably, like needle pricks.

The Cavaliers still won the game, and Waiters, who replaced him, performed well.

After the game, Zhang Xiaotian found that his Achilles tendon was inflamed, which was caused by fatigue. The previous reversal only made the symptoms appear in advance.

Muscle inflammation can be a big or small thing for athletes.

After the doctor's suggestion, Zhang Xiaotian planned to adopt a conservative treatment method, and it was estimated that he would have a truce for four to six weeks.

He was also quite depressed in his heart. He was injured when the All-Star votes were good. If he was selected but could only watch because of injuries, it would be a big loss.

The news of Zhang Xiaotian's injury spread, and the fans were also very distressed. Many fans shouted to go back and continue voting, thinking that he could rest at ease.

Although there were some bad words, he was very moved by the kindness of the fans.

Once upon a time, he was just a small fan. Now he is thinking about the All-Star. He is really a lucky person.

Thinking about it this way, the injury is no longer terrible. He must actively cooperate with the treatment and strive to return to the game as soon as possible.

He will also be more cautious about injuries in the future, and many times bad things can be avoided.

Yang Feiyu also flew over from the other side of the ocean. This year she would have followed Zhang Xiaotian in the United States for the Spring Festival, but now she came a little earlier to take care of him.

"It's good to take a break, there are just a few games and I want to find someone to clear the level together."

Yang Feiyu still looks like a little girl, but the occasional calmness in her eyes shows that she has grown a lot during this time.

Zhang Xiaotian pinched his wife's face, "Rest is secondary, the key is to have someone take care of you."

Yang Feiyu cast a contemptuous look, "I'm afraid that some people will not be able to bear it at this time."

"Bold witch, today I will let you have a taste of being a husband."

Zhang Xiaotian's injury did not affect his normal life, but he could really adjust his body.

Of course, some training will still continue, and rest can't make the body rusty.

After his injury, the team decided to start Mike Miller and Waiters played with the sixth man.

On the 28th, the Cavaliers played against the Pistons at home.

The Pistons' performance this season is still not good. Although they also worked hard in the summer, Reggie Jackson, who was unwilling to play as a substitute for the Thunder, also performed well after coming over, and has a young twin towers, but the team seems to have not found a direction yet. .

In this encounter with the Cavaliers, the Pistons performed very well. Except for the lack of state in the first quarter, they completely dominated the game in the next period. The young insider Drummond even ruled the penalty area with 16 points, 17 rebounds and 5 blocks.

The Cavaliers still suffer from not having a substitute, and it is always difficult for the Waiters team to take on heavy responsibilities when they need him.

After losing to the Pistons, they met the Eagles who have been in the limelight recently.

They also lost to the Eagles when the lineup was in order before. This time, not only Zhang Xiaotian was absent, but James also chose a truce due to back discomfort.

Irving led the team to be honest and did not play badly, but he and Love seem a bit incompatible.

James can deploy the ball when he is there, but Irving plays differently.

James usually has too much possession of the ball, which is one of the reasons why Irving has not grown greatly in organization.

When Love felt bad, Waiters went crazy again, and the Cavaliers lost in a row.

This time James intends to rest for a while and come back without seeing the team's losing streak.

This is also an opportunity for Irving to prove his ability to lead the team, but it is a pity that the team does not have enough people to play.

Some fringe players got a chance to play, but unfortunately no one was able to emerge.

Although someone on the main injured team often seizes the opportunity to play, the Cavaliers seem to have no prepared talents.

In the last game in December, the Cavaliers lost to the visiting Bucks for a three-game losing streak.

Losing is not terrible, whoever is embarrassed, James and Zhang Xiaotian's truce team played in a mess, Owen and Love have become poor blamers.

As for Waiters, he has been scolded by fans this season, and now he is even more unpopular.

In this case, James and Zhang Xiaotian's All-Star voting was not affected in the slightest, but more people supported it, which is also a surprise.

In the second round of statistics released by the league, James continues to lead the league, while Zhang Xiaotian still ranks second in the Eastern Conference forwards.

At the beginning of January, the Cavaliers played away against the Hornets without Al Jefferson, and finally made a big splash.

Both Irving and Love scored 20+, but they still didn't cooperate much.

Moreover, Irving's shooting percentage was less than [-]%, and Waiters and Waiters did not pass the ball to each other and fought hard. They won because Kemba Walker was as strong as Kemba Walker.

At this time, the Cavaliers have slipped from the No. [-] throne in the Eastern Conference. Not only are the fans dissatisfied with the performance of the players, but David Blatt is also considered unsuccessful.

Fans don't care if the team suffers injuries. The Cavaliers are watched by many people with a magnifying glass this season.

Without James and Zhang Xiaotian, all the problems were exposed.

The integration of the Cavaliers is more difficult than that of the Heat. After all, the relationship between James and Wade was irreversible at that time. Now the Cavaliers are dominated by James, but others are not completely convinced.

David Blatt is also considered a rookie in the league, and he can't hold back this wave of players at all.

James often grabs the coach's job off the court these days, but Zhang Xiaotian doesn't have that much leisure.

In fact, as long as everyone is healthy, many things will be resolved gradually. He just needs to recover well and play well.

Zhang Xiaotian is not very worried about the team's current situation. After all, the league often strives for talent, and this Cavaliers has it.
