my golden age

Chapter 22 Accidents
Bruce Bowen is a defensive champion known for his dirty moves. He belongs to the type trusted by his teammates but hated by his opponents.After all, his defense sometimes runs towards the useless.

He looked at the high-spirited Gao Fei, and his thoughts changed a bit.

Duncan is the boss of the Spurs, calm and tough, and is called a stone Buddha by fans.American fans call him a big basic skill.

No matter which nickname, it can reflect his playing style.

Kwame Brown is 2.11 meters tall and weighs 122 kilograms. He is strong and can withstand Duncan's lower body for one-on-one defense.

Parker is a point guard. Facing Goofy's defense and without any physical advantage, Parker can't even display his proud speed.He didn't have the ability to make strong shots, so he had to pass the ball to Bowen.

Bowen faced Vujacic, but it was a pity that he had no offensive ability, and the opponent stalked like nougat, and almost lost the ball.

With his back to the basket, Duncan receives a pass from Bowen.

His special skill is a 45-degree rebound shot. Feeling Kwame Brown's defense, he knew it was not easy to use.Withdrew slightly, turned over and threw with a right hand!
The basketball passed Kwame Brown's outstretched right hand and fell into the basket!

3-2!

"Duncan is the cornerstone of the Spurs. After entering the league, he turned this team into a top team that cannot be underestimated." Seeing Duncan score, Yu Jia couldn't help but praise.

Xu Jicheng said: "Duncan can be said to be the strongest power forward, and he has more willpower than Karl Malone."

"Karl Malone is also very strong, but the lack of a championship is an unavoidable flaw. Otherwise, the ownership of the No. [-] power forward may be discussed."

While the two commentators discussed the power forwards, the two sides played a few more rounds.

Goofy's physical gifts paid off significantly, pairing up with Lamar Odom and always getting the ball to Kobe at the right time.Although Bryant occasionally waited for the defender to jump up before shooting, he still maintained a high efficiency.

Lakers 13-5 Spurs!

Popovich was forced to call a timeout.

"Gao is the engine of the Lakers, a greater threat than Kobe. Bruce, you will guard him after the timeout." Popovich assigned tasks.

"I'll let this kid understand the cruelty of the professional game." Bruce Bowen knew that Gao Fei couldn't be stopped by normal defense, so he wanted to use some means.

Naturally, Popovich knew about his disciple's indiscriminate skills, so he chose to turn a blind eye. After all, it could bring practical benefits to the team.

Goofy returned to the game and found that the defensive player was replaced by Bowen, knowing that the Spurs had realized how his presence would affect the Lakers.

He is not a reckless man, knowing that Bowen's style is not good, just after halftime, he handed it to Kobe on the right.

"Boy, did you turn into a turtle when you saw me? Didn't you just gallop all over the field and look very proud?" Bowen tried to provoke Gao Fei with words.

Gao Fei didn't even look at Bowen, he paid attention to Kobe's offensive movement, and ran to the opposite side at the same time.

Bowen not only used words, but also small movements of pulling jerseys.Due to his experience, he was not discovered by Joe Crawford.

This kind of small action will not attract fouls, and it can distract the players' attention, which is the most emotionally stimulating.Only the old fritters in the stadium know how to use it.

After all, once the referee sees it, he will be called a foul.

With Odom's pick-and-roll, Kobe made an emergency stop outside the free throw line and attacked the weakest position of the Spurs' defensive system.He played against the Spurs under Popovich many times, and he knows their weakness is not enough pressure on the mid-range shot.

The peak of a player is in the age range of 28-32. Kobe is 27 years old this year. His physical talent has not declined, but his experience has reached its peak, which is stronger than during the three consecutive championships.There is no restriction on defensive champions, and the offensive talent is fully displayed.

The cheers, dancing figures and music continued as Staples Center fans watched Bryant's pleasing individual offense, excited.

The Lakers have a high-flying and stable rhythm, always suppressing the Spurs, leading by 6 points and entering the intermission.

Popovich didn't expect Gao Fei to be such a player who could control the rhythm so well. He was a little helpless because of his lack of preparation before the game.He looked at Bowen and said, "Bruce, you played too softly! In the second quarter, you should give Gao Fei more interference, and don't let him control the rhythm."

When it comes to pace, Parker has a hunch he'll be blamed.

Popovich looked at Parker and said, "Tony, as a point guard, you have to pass the ball as much as possible and mobilize your teammates. Otherwise, find a way to draw high-flying fouls and don't watch the show on the court."

It's not that Parker doesn't want to help the team, but facing Gao Fei's suffocating defense, he has nowhere to use his strength.He has faced many defenders, and he is rarely so embarrassed. He feels that Gao Fei has the defensive ability of the best defensive player.

"Bruce, it's up to you to figure out something." Popovich said something that was not obvious.

Bowen has played with Popovich for several years, so he naturally knows what the coach means.

Gao Fei continued to control the ball and sort out the team's offense.He delivered the ball as early as possible, but he still couldn't escape Bowen's clutches.

When rushing to grab a rebound in the penalty area, Bowen elbowed him to the corner of his eye.

The pain was like an electric current, spreading all over the body in an instant.Gao Fei gritted his teeth to protect the defensive rebound and passed it to Kobe.

Joe Crawford saw the blood flowing down Gao Fei's left cheek, and hurriedly stopped the game.

Since Magic Johnson was tested positive for HIV, the league has strict regulations on wound management, and it is not allowed to play games with bleeding wounds.

The Lakers team doctor and chief trainer Gary Vitti hurried to meet Goofy, checked him, and immediately confirmed that the corner of his eye was cracked.

The team doctor said: "Go back to the locker room to stitch up the wound."

Garivetti handed Gao Fei a towel and asked him to cover the wound to stop the bleeding.

When the three of them walked into the player tunnel, the fans were concerned about the expressionless Gao Fei.

The cheers in the stadium gradually became weaker, and then some could not be heard clearly.Gao Fei really wanted to go back to the court to check what happened, but the pain near his left temple told him that he had to wait for the wound to be treated before returning to the game.

Garivetti is the team's chief trainer. Knowing that Gao Fei is not what he looks like on the outside, he is a very competitive player. He said: "Don't worry, the wound will be stitched quickly, and you will definitely be able to go back to the game."

"Then I'll leave it to you." Gao Fei held his wound, his tone flat.

There are computers in the locker room of the home team, and the equipment manager Wright watched the live broadcast of the game. Knowing that Gao Fei was injured, he removed the things on the physiotherapy bed in advance.

Gao Fei lay on the physical therapy bed, removed the towel, and exposed the wound to the air.

After simple disinfection, the team doctor administered a local anesthetic injection and began to suture the wound with catgut.He is a very experienced doctor and gets it done quickly.

In order to ensure that the wound does not open again, it is fixed with gauze and medical tape.As a result, Gao Fei's left eye vision is not particularly good.

"Be patient and rest for a while. After the anesthesia wears off, I'll give you a painkiller injection and then go back to the court." This is not the first time the team doctor has dealt with this kind of wound. He knows that the players want to go back to the game as soon as possible, and let Gao Fei know when he can return arena.

Gao Fei didn't answer, still expressionless.

The commentator's words were clearly transmitted to Gao Fei's ears through the computer's external sound system-the Spurs quickly chased the points and succeeded in overtaking.
