lakers championship

Chapter 84
Although Sequoia did not announce the specific injury of Tianyang, anyone who has watched the live broadcast of the game or seen the photos of his ankle wrap can guess that he has an Achilles tendon injury.

No guess how bad it was, partly torn?Totally torn?fracture?Are there any other injuries?

Jiang Rulan said that she could help, which moved Tianyang very much.

But he still doesn't know how the injury is, so he can only reply thank you and say that there is a result.

After replying, Tianyang turned off the phone, the plane took off, and the night was getting dark.

During this day, the Sequoia team experienced the excitement before the start of the game, the tension after the start of the game; the panic when the score fell behind;

The mixed emotions made the whole team fall asleep with exhaustion.

Only Johnny frowned, his fingers kept jumping, and he kept editing, sending, and replying to text messages.

In order to help Tianyang find the best treatment team, he asked all over the circle of friends he had built up over 40 years.

From the sports medical experts at Stanford University, to the Duke University Alumni Association, to the teammates of the Spurs, 76ers, and Pistons, and even his childhood in the Washington area.

After asking around, the conclusion is that the injury report needs to be obtained first. Johnny immediately called the Stanford school and accurate the time of the celebration to the minute.

……

After about 10 hours of journey, the Sequoia team finally landed at San Francisco International Airport.

As soon as we got off the plane, a large group of people rushed up from the Stanford school.

They wore Sequoia jerseys with the words '2016 NCAA Championship' printed on them, and they also brought simple makeup tools to groom the Sequoia players.

They also brought Tianyang a high-tech wheelchair and a Superman cape.

After some preparations, Coach Johnny pushed Tianyang out of the airport.

The moment the two showed up, the entire San Francisco Airport could not even hear the sound of planes taking off and landing.

Only the cheers of the fans.

Among the fans, there are white-haired grandpas on crutches and grandmas wearing reading glasses; there are middle-aged uncles holding signs of "Sequoia No. Roaring brothers and sisters, screaming sisters and sisters; and babbling to toddler lying in the arms, holding hands, sitting on the shoulders, riding on the head, hanging on the back, standing at the feet child.

"Tianyang, I love you!" "Sequoia is the best!" "Thank you" shouted endlessly.

An old man in a wheelchair said to the live broadcast camera: "I am 100 years old today, and the Sequoia team winning the championship is my best birthday present."

The old man is serious. After all, the last time the Stanford Sequoia team won the championship was in 1942.

After a short speech of thanks, the whole team boarded the parade bus and started walking to the school.

From the airport to Stanford, nearly 40 kilometers away, the police from San Francisco, San Mateo, and Palo Alto escorted the Sequoia team bus.

On both sides of the road that the bus passed by, all the residents of the Southern Bay Area, those who played basketball, those who did not play basketball, and those who did not even watch basketball, all went out to celebrate for the Sequoia team.

It's all empty, but that's all.

If the NBA championship of the Golden State Warriors made the residents north of the Bay Area extremely happy, then the NCAA championship of the Stanford Sequoias is enough to make the residents of the southern Bay Area deeply honored.

On the bus, Sheffield said to Tianyang: "That time I listened to your suggestion and made a quasi-lore three-pointer. I thought that would be the most glorious moment in my basketball career, but I didn't expect it to be today!"

The bus went all the way and finally arrived at the north gate of the Stanford campus.

Just like the expedition ceremony half a month ago, the school arranged for people from various sports teams to welcome the basketball team.

In addition, Principal John Hennessy, along with members of the school board, waited at the north gate to welcome them.

When Tianyang got out of the car, Hannis quickly stepped forward to take the wheelchair from Johnny, and pushed Tianyang directly to the central square.Because the school announced a holiday today, there were too many students who came to participate in the celebration ceremony. The Maples Arena was not enough, and the oval square was also very difficult, so the celebration ceremony could only be held in the central square.

When they got to the place, the whole Sequoia team stood on the stage, and Hennessy began to make a speech.

"Since 2000, I have been the president of Stanford University and I am retiring this year. Thanks to the Sequoia team, thank you to Coach Johnny, thank you to Tianyang and all the players, you have given me the best retirement gift, I believe All Stanford alumni feel the same way, thank you. I'm announcing that the school's contract with Coach Johnny will be extended by another 4 years...”

After Hannes's speech, Coach Johnny gave a speech, then Tianyang made a speech, and Shelfield and others spoke.

Although the content of the speech was similar, the fans who participated in the celebration at the scene still cheered.

After the speech, there were spontaneous performances organized by the students, and at the end there was a handshake and signature session.

Taking a photo with Tianyang, the most people wanted to sign, but Johnny said on the spot that he only gave 10 minutes.

It's not unreasonable, but Tianyang needs to check as soon as possible.

Near the end of the signing, Han Suo, the representative of the rugby team, walked up to Tianyang, smiled and expressed that he wanted to take a group photo.

The so-called reaching out and not hitting smiling people, let alone the whole school celebrating this moment.

Tianyang nodded in agreement, and Johnny waved for the last one.

After the group photo was over, Johnny was about to push Tianyang away, when Han Suo suddenly smiled and asked, "Hey, how is your injury? If you need help, please contact me. I know the top medical team in the United States."

Tianyang wanted to thank subconsciously, but the playful smile on the corner of Han Suo's mouth made him realize that the other party didn't mean it sincerely, so he just answered OK politely.

……

Stanford University, in the campus hospital.

Johnny pushed open the door of the examination room, and five doctors immediately stepped forward to take the wheelchair.

The five helped Tianyang to the hospital bed. At this time, 14 hours had passed since Tianyang was injured.

Blount, who was following Tianyang, took out a confidentiality agreement that was rushed overnight and asked five doctors to sign it, and he was not allowed to disclose any details of Tianyang's injury to the outside world.

After the five people signed, they began to do the test for Tianyang.

Johnny and Blunt exited the examination room and sat on chairs in the hallway waiting for the results of the examination.

He kept blaming himself for allowing Tianyang to play so long in the games against Hawaii and Maryland; for not protecting the players in the game against Duke University;

If he did one of the three, Tianyang would not be injured.The more he thought about it, the more he felt uncomfortable, and angrily punched the wall with his fist.Blount on the side knew that persuasion was useless, so he let him vent.

It wasn't until Blount felt a light flickering in front of his eyes and a reporter was taking pictures with his head tilted that he persuaded Johnny, then got up and drove the reporter away.

Half an hour later, the door of the examination room was opened, and Johnny immediately got up and rushed over, "How is it?"

The doctor took off the mask and pondered for a long time, "The Achilles tendon of the left foot is completely ruptured, and I may not be able to play basketball anymore."

When Johnny heard this, his eyes went dark and he almost fell to the ground.

Is a super genius going to die because of this?This is even sadder than Bias dying of drugs.

Johnny covered his face with his hands and burst into tears.

"But Tianyang's injury is rather peculiar, and the injury has stretched his Achilles tendon a lot. If he can be treated with the most advanced repair surgery in the world, he can not only recover completely, but also greatly improve his jumping level."
