Bishop of the Abyss

Chapter 85 85. Separation of Flesh and Flesh!

When the team doctor helped Nehbar with a sprained ankle to leave the field, Nehbar forced a smile: "Coach, I just accidentally sprained my ankle. Winning the series is the most important thing."

Nehbar has been following Luke since he was in Europe, so Nehbar knows Luke very well.

Nehbar is afraid that he will be eliminated in this round of the dominant series because he caused the Timberwolves to break out unnecessary physical conflicts on the court.

If this is the case, Nehbar will definitely feel guilty and cannot forgive himself in his heart, even if the injured player is himself.

Seeing the appearance of this disciple when he left the field, even Luke, who was indifferent and ruthless, couldn't help but feel a tingle in his heart.

As early as when he played in the European League, Nehbar was not good at speaking. He was the most obedient player in the entire Tau team, and he could even be said to be a clear stream of the Tau team.

Even if Bruce Bowen is maliciously stepping on his feet now, the first thing Nehbar thinks about is winning or losing the series. Don't drag down the team's efforts throughout the season because of himself.

"Boji, I will never let you go..."

Trenton Hassell's words were interrupted by Luke's hand.

Looking at Nehbar who was being supported by two team doctors, Luke patted Nehbar on the shoulder and said relaxedly: "Heal your injuries and don't think too much about things."

Luke's appearance made Nehbar a little worried, but before Nehbar opened his mouth to say anything, Luke gestured for the team doctor to help Nehbar leave the field.

As Nehbar disappeared under the support of two team doctors, Luke's facial expression instantly turned gloomy. Looking at the field, Luke said indifferently to the side: "Trenton, don't let me down."

"Don't worry, coach, even if God comes today, he won't be able to save his career!" Trenton Hassell nodded grimly.

.........

On the field, three referees watched the replay video in the replay center, and finally added a first-level malicious foul to Bruce Bowen.

Even if Bowen stepped on his foot, it can be completely explained as a joint movement of the body, but Bruce Bowen has been in the league for many years, and the referee has long been aware of this behavior.

The first-level malicious foul is obviously a warning to Bruce Bowen, just to warn the Spurs, please stop this round of the series!
But even so, when the referee made a penalty for a malicious first-degree foul, Spurs coach Popovich still stood on the sidelines and raged, spitting fragrance at the referee, apparently dissatisfied with the result of the penalty.

At the same time, Bruce Bowen, who just stretched out the black foot pad, also pretended to be very innocent, spread his hands and kept explaining to the referee, saying that this was just an accident, an accident of defensive joint actions.

Watching the performance of the Spurs master and apprentice on the field, Luke stood at the bottom of the field with a cold expression, looking at them like a clown.

"I really want to go up and punch him with such a dirty face!" Shooting assistant El Smith couldn't help spitting.

"This group of people is more shameless than the Pistons. I don't intend to stop you this time, because the other side is really disgusting!" Raymond took a deep breath, and it was the first time he sided with Luke on this kind of thing.

Although the Timberwolves had many conflicts with other teams before, Raymond has always remained calm and dissuaded Luke in time at critical moments.

But this time the ugly face of the Spurs made Raymond feel sick. If it wasn't for character reasons, Raymond would now want to grab Popovich's hair and beat this guy severely.

.........

Returning to the game, there are only about 3 minutes left before the end of the first quarter, but Bruce Bowen was replaced by Popovich.

It seems that Popovich is also afraid that the stepping just now will attract the anger of the Timberwolves players, so Popovich temporarily took Bowen down and asked Bowen to leave the game early to rest.

Bowen's end made Hassell, who had just been replaced by Luke, a little helpless, but Luke sat on the sidelines and did not move at all, because in Luke's eyes, Bowen had already been labeled as scrapped.

Even if he survived the first quarter, he couldn't escape the whole match!
At the end of the first quarter, the Timberwolves temporarily gained the upper hand by leading the Spurs by six points at 24:18 by virtue of Nehbar's outstanding performance before leaving the field.

Back from the second quarter, Tony Parker, who was put on the bench by Popovich, will lead the team during this time period.

Even though the Minnesota second team treated Parker in the same way as the starting lineup, the overall defensive level has declined, allowing Parker to get a lot of offensive opportunities.

At the same time, Nehbar's absence due to injury also severely weakened the Timberwolves' backcourt rotation. Now the 34-year-old "Penny" Hardaway has to shoulder more offensive tasks and replace Nehbar to sort out the offense.

So far this year's playoffs, "Penny" Hardaway has not missed a single game. With an average of 18.1 minutes per game, Hardaway can contribute 7.3 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists.

Among them, the shooting percentage was 46.7%, and the three-point shooting percentage was 33.6%.

This statistic may not be that outstanding, and it is far from being directly proportional to "Penny" Hardaway's career reputation, but Hardaway's excellent court experience allows him to play very reasonably on the court.

When "Penny" Hardaway is on the court, Luke can trust this guy unconditionally. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even if Hardaway's ability is not as good as 1/4 of his peak, if he only leads the second team to stabilize the situation, he will definitely is more than enough.

Throughout the second quarter, the two sides played back and forth, and the situation on the field was very stalemate, and no one could quickly open the score in a short period of time.

Until the opening four minutes of the second quarter, Popovich replaced Bruce Bowen again in a dead ball stage.

Seeing Popovich's substitution this time, Trenton Hassell, who was sitting off the court, stood up immediately, and replaced Salmons, who hadn't played for a long time, and returned to the court.

"You dirty blackfoot, you will pay the price for your actions, believe me, this will be the most regrettable decision you have ever made in your life!" Hassel leaned close to Bruce Bowen with a fierce look on his face. threatened it.

"If you eat shit, please brush your teeth well, I don't understand what you're talking about." Bowen smiled and shook his head, looking at Hassel with vigilant eyes.

"These are no longer important. No one will care about a cripple." Trenton Hassel said thoughtfully, and then smiled ferociously.

Hassel's verbal threats made Bruce Bowen feel dangerous, especially when Trenton Hassel will be directly facing Bowen, which makes Bowen always full of vigilance.

For the next period of time, the offensive efficiency of both sides was very low, and the main thing was defense. Except for a little defensive action, there were no accidents on the field.

But before the three referees could breathe a sigh of relief, there was a sudden scream!
I saw that in a defensive round, Trenton Hassell rushed forward and failed to stop the speed, flying directly against Bowen's body from the side.

At this moment, Bowen seized the opportunity and was about to break inward with the ball when he felt his feet being stirred, and then his body fell forward uncontrollably.

At the same time, Hassel, who swooped over from the flank, bumped into his teammate Karl Malone. Karl Malone's strong body muscles directly made Hassel back uncontrollably.

In the process of retreating, Hassel seemed to have found Bowen who had fallen to the ground, and made a gesture to dodge backwards. It seemed that he wanted to avoid Bowen to prevent the stampede, but the jump firmly stepped on Bowen's left ankle. superior!
At this moment, Bowen let out a howl like killing a pig, but before Bowen could react, Hassel, who was stepping on Bowen's ankle, lost his balance in an instant, and directly hit Bowen's leg heavily again.

The dislocation of Bowen's left ankle bone is directly visible to the naked eye, and the tilt reaches more than 70 degrees, which looks terrible!
Feeling the pain, Bowen hurriedly raised his leg to cover his left ankle and let out a scream, but to outsiders, Bowen's leg raise seemed to have kicked Hassell.

And this kick made Hassel who fell to the ground completely lose his mind, and he stood up and kicked Bowen fiercely, as if venting his anger.

If you observe carefully, you will find that the place where Hassell slammed has been the left ankle that Bowen stretched out his hand to cover. This scene made Bowen roll on the spot in pain, and let out a horrific howl, which sounded like murder. Scary as a pig.

"Go to hell, you dirty bastard!"

"Remember, I don't understand what you're talking about. I didn't fall on purpose. It was a complete accident!" Hassel cursed viciously as he kicked Bowen violently.

It wasn't until the players of the two teams and the referee rushed forward to pull Hassel back away that people saw that Bowen was lying on the ground at this time, and his left ankle was already in a state of weakness and drooping.

It seems that the foot and the calf bone are completely separated, and some bones are even exposed through the skin.

Everyone in the stadium felt their scalps go numb after watching this scene, even the referee couldn't help covering his mouth with his hands, and looked at Bo Wen with a horrified expression.

Bowen's screams caused center Muhammad to rush up immediately, but before the aggressive Muhammad stood up for his teammates, Muhammad looked down and saw Bowen's boneless left ankle. The whole person froze on the spot.

Obviously, the shock that this scene brought to everyone was too great. Compared with the popularity of the game, this tragic and explicit way even Muhammad felt his scalp tingle, and he was even thrown out of his head for his teammates. Finally, because this scene is too scary!

The first to react was the sideline referee. Under Bowen's screams like killing a pig, the referee immediately stopped the game, shouted for the Spurs team doctor, and further separated the Timberwolves and the Spurs to prevent the two teams from colliding again.

When the helpless Spurs team doctor squatted in front of Bowen with a first aid kit, even the team doctor gasped, apparently not expecting that Bowen's injury was so serious.

The bone fragments have been pierced through the skin and exposed, so why does his mother need to check the situation? !
Not daring to touch Bowen's ankle rashly, the team doctor immediately asked his assistant to take out a towel from the bench and cover Bowen's left ankle to prevent more people from seeing this horrifying and terrifying scene.

Then he contacted the stretcher truck and slowly carried Bowen onto the stretcher. During this process, Bowen kept screaming, as if even moving would make Bowen's life worse than death.

Watching Bowen being pushed off the court by the Spurs doctor, Luke looked at Popovich with cold eyes, and Popovich just happened to turn around and look at Luke.

When the eyes of the two intersected in the air, Popovich's eyes clearly showed anger, and at the same time, there was unconcealable panic!
