NBA: No. 1 Forward-Chapter 545: World of Warcraft season reimbursement out
【NBA: No. 1 Forward】【】
, NBA: No. 1 forward
If Kobe said that he was the number one in the world of endurance, no one would dare to refute this season.
With this physical talent, the "old man" James, who will be 37 years old in the future and averaged 37.2 minutes per game, can be even better.
With such a physical condition, it is said that Kobe has no talent in later generations?
If Kobe doesn't have talent, then Lian Dao really doesn't know what it means to be talented in the NBA!
Except for Kobe's small hands, all his talents are at the top of the league.
However, Lian Dao also obtained James' injury insulator before.
His body is now as durable as James.
Of course, this does not mean that Lian Dao can be unscrupulous.
It is also very important to know that the maintenance James spends on his body every year.
If Lian Dao doesn't pay attention to physical maintenance, even if there is an injury insulator, it is impossible to achieve the effect of James.
…
After entering April, it is considered to have officially entered the final stage of the regular season.
However, the Knicks still have 13 games to play in April, three of which are back-to-backs.
As long as the Knicks win half of them, they can maintain the league's first record.
This seems to be no problem for the Knicks.
But no one dares to be blindly optimistic. Although the schedule in April is not difficult, the strength of the opponent is not weak either.
Not only will they play against the Bulls twice this month, they will also play against the Magic, Heat, Celtics, Pacers and Eagles respectively.
These teams are all strong teams that have basically been determined to enter the playoffs.
It is not easy for the Knicks to take down these tough opponents.
…
On April 1, the prediction of the Bulls coach came true. This month, a large number of players will be hit by injuries.
And the first unlucky person born was Howard.
On the first day of April, in the Magic's game against the Denver Nuggets, Howard was waived.
The reason is that in the last game against the Mavericks, Howard was injured in the waist by Mavericks center Haywood.
Fortunately, there is nothing serious. The Magic management said in the press conference that they only need to rest for a few days.
And on April 5, in the Knicks game against the Magic, Howard did come back to fight.
However, in this game, Howard's state is not very good.
And he seemed to have not recovered from his waist injury, and he didn't exert much strength.
In particular, the Knicks did not double-team him in this game.
But he only had eight shots in the game.
In the end, Howard played 40 minutes and only scored 8 points, 8 rebounds and 1 assist.
Against him, Cousins ??scored 16 points and 12 rebounds in this game.
In the final game, under the leadership of Lian Dao, they easily defeated their opponents with 96:80.
After the game, the media criticized Howard's game attitude, thinking that Howard lacked a sense of responsibility.
However, Howard said on social media that he just came back, and he still has some pain in his waist and is not in good condition.
In the next game, he will prove that he is still the strongest center in the league.
However, in the Magic's next game against the 76ers, Howard collapsed due to back pain at halftime.

But at that time, Howard did not choose to end, but still endured the pain and played the whole game.
Moreover, in this game, Howard, who played 44 minutes, scored 20 points and 22 rebounds.
And led the Magic to beat the 76ers 88:82.
Therefore, although the Magic fans were worried about Howard's physical condition, they didn't think Howard's injury would be serious.
But shortly after the game, the Magic came out with a shocking news.
Howard has a herniated disc and must undergo surgery. Although the surgery is not major, it is impossible for Howard to return to the game in a short time.
This also indirectly announced Howard's season reimbursement.
After the news came out, it seemed like a single stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Before this season, Howard had only missed one game in his career due to injury.
Over the past seven seasons, the total number of games he has missed is only five.
Except for one game due to a cold, the rest were the day before the All-Star weekend or the last day of the regular season.
Therefore, no one would have thought that Mr. Superman, who is still under 27 years old, would actually become a member of the injury army this season.
After Howard's injury came out, Lakers fans were a little thankful for the previous price increase by the Magic management.
If Howard was injured after coming to the Lakers, it may not be possible for the Lakers to make the playoffs this season.
Even if they make it, it is estimated that they will be in the first round of the playoffs.
The current situation of the Magic is like the speculation of Lakers fans, because they still have 10 games to play.
The Magic are currently ranked sixth in the East, and the gap with the fifth Eagles and the fourth Pacers is only one win.
If Howard is not injured and the Magic work hard, they can even stabilize in the top half of the playoffs.
But with Howard's injury, the next record of the Magic can be imagined.
Not to mention climbing up, they may not even be able to keep the sixth place in the Eastern Conference.
If the Magic falls to seventh or eighth in the Eastern Conference.
At that time, the Magic will face the Knicks, Heat or Bulls.
The Magic are unlikely to win against these teams, even if Howard is not injured, let alone Howard is reimbursed for the season.
Therefore, the current Magic team is basically a round trip!
With Howard's fall, some fans of the Eastern Conference even hoped that their team could meet the Magic in the first round.
It wouldn't be a playoff team without Howard's magic.
Therefore, that team met the Magic in the first round and basically made it to the semifinals.
This is also in response to a sentence: the tiger falls in Pingyang and is bullied by dogs!
…
"Should Sickle take a rest?"
The New York media and fans saw the iron man Howard knelt down, and they didn't gloat in their hearts.
Instead, he worried about his own star.
Although Lian Dao has no injuries this season, the team's injuries have not stopped since the beginning of the season.

The fans are also worried. It's the end of the season. If their star is injured, they will really cry.

Moreover, Lian Dao's average playing time of 37.8 per game this season is also among the top in the league.
So, the New York Times after the Knicks game against the Magic.
Just use a report "The Knicks increase the rotation of the players, and they must 'follow' the Spurs" to appeal to the Knicks management.
As for why it is in line with the Spurs.
That's because Popovich, an old guy, does have two brushes.
It can be said that 90% of the teams in the league hate this shrinking season very much.
But there is one team that is an exception, and that is the San Antonio Spurs!
Before that, in late March, the Spurs had won six straight.
After entering April, the Spurs' winning streak did not end, but continued to expand.
So far, the Spurs have won 11 consecutive victories.
From the previous No. 4 in the West ~www.innread.com~ to the current No. 2 in the West in one fell swoop.
Even if the record is compared with the Thunder, which is No. 1 in the Western Conference, it is only one win away.
With the current situation, it is just around the corner to equalize or even surpass the Thunder.
For some, this may be hard to imagine.
It stands to reason that there are a group of old guys in the Spurs, and they should hate this shrinking schedule the most.
But it turned out to be the opposite. Popovich and the Spurs are very good at producing results in shrinking seasons.
And, not just once!
The NBA's shrinking season isn't the only one.
As early as the 1998-1999 season, the season was shortened due to the breakdown of labor negotiations.
At the time, there were only 50 games played in an entire league season.
The Spurs that year had a record of 37 wins and 13 losses in the shrinking season, ranking first in the league.
Not only that, but the Spurs also won the championship that season.
The opponent in the finals is the New York Knicks.
After a lapse of 13 years, I did not expect that in this shrinking season, the Spurs came from behind again.
Judging from the current posture, the Spurs are likely to hit the No. 1 position in the Western Conference.
As for the number one in the league, I am afraid it is unlikely.
Because as long as the Knicks don't have a losing streak, the Spurs have no chance at all.
For a team whose core players are gradually aging, the Spurs not only did not suffer major injuries, but Popovich had a way to rejuvenate them.
This is also due to the team rotation created by Popovich.
Since it is a shortened season and the schedule is tight, it is easy for players to get injured.
Therefore, protecting the health of the Spurs players is a top priority.
