"How is the injury?"

"It's okay, coach. Thank you for your concern!

It's just a contusion of the muscle soft tissue.

The team doctor has sprayed me with a spray, and it should be fine in a few days."

At the end of the first quarter, He Li was cared for by coach George Carl.

Originally, He Li wanted to continue fighting on the grounds that he "don't get off the line of fire if he is slightly injured."

But George Carl had asked the team doctor to come over, and then issued a death order, asking He Li to follow the team doctor to initially diagnose the injury.

He Li had no choice but to refuse, of course he wanted to take a break and then go over to diagnose and treat.

In fact, there are no major problems. Small injuries such as muscle contusion and strain are common in NBA.

Leg injuries, waist injuries, and groin injuries will have a greater impact on players. As for shoulder injuries, as long as they are not the main attacker, the impact will be slightly smaller.

He Li sprayed a spray on his shoulder. It was cold and cold at this time, not as strong as the pain before.

Next, you should pay attention to avoid the increase in injuries. You can still play basketball, but you can only play health basketball.

This actually fulfilled He Li's intentions.

When He Li came back, the second quarter was almost over, so He Li had no chance to play again.

However, now He Li doesn't need to take the battle with injuries.

The Bucks' morale and overall players are in good shape now. The Bucks have many offensive points. It is expected that after the first half, the Bucks will be able to lead by 20 points.

Sure enough, at the end of the first half, the score on the field was 63 to 42, and the Bucks led the Jazz by 21 points.

But this does not mean that the Bucks can relax their guard and celebrate the victory in advance.

The environment in which the Rotel Delta Air Lines Center is located has had some adverse effects on the Bucks players.

At this time, the Bucks' main force consumed a lot of physical energy. Even if there was a halftime break, they would definitely send a substitute to the third quarter to support for a while.

If the substitute is not reliable, he will be chased for many points in the third quarter, and the main force will have to play again without sufficient rest.

If this is true and the game enters the fourth quarter, it is hard to say whether the Bucks can still win in this game.

For this reason, George Carl asked He Li solemnly: "Can you fight?"

"There is no choice!"

"Very good, very energetic!" He Li's answer satisfied George Carl.

In the third quarter, He Li reappeared, and was surrounded by a familiar substitute lineup.

Because of a shoulder injury, He Li still played the ball with less holding the ball and tried to hand over the ball to Reed and Alstom.

Alstom played half of the second quarter, but it was mainly dribbling, and there was no problem with physical strength.

Needless to say, Reed played 20 minutes in the first half, and Reed only played 4 minutes in the second quarter, made a tight move once, and even made a blacksmith.

Back to the topic, under He Li's leadership, the Bucks played well in the first 4 minutes of the third quarter.

Although the Jazz recovered 2 points during the period, the Bucks did not have much problem.

During this period, He Li not only scored 3 assists, but also drew a goal with one hand and drew.

He Li felt that the shoulder injury had no effect on his one-handed dunk.

This dunk was also the only goal that He Li scored in 4 minutes. After the spike, He Li already scored in double digits.

However, in this case, the old coach Sloan did not talk about the ball and replaced Malone again.

Since Ma Long was in the basket, He Li needed to think carefully about it if he wanted to rush in and dunk again.

Is scoring data important or brain important?

Data is indeed very important to He Li. He Li thought about it and never tried it. How did he know that he would definitely lose?

Anyway, he still has 18 points to lead the way. After Malone came on the court, He Li took the initiative to ask for the ball to play Malone alone.

Malone is an iron man, but it doesn’t mean that playing basketball does not consume any physical energy at all.

Otherwise, Malone wouldn't have been criticized by Pippen for not going to work on Sundays.

He Li played Malone with the ball and used the offensive end to consume Malone.

If you have the chance, pretend to be pitiful in front of the referee and commit a wave of fouls, that would be even better.

He Li continued to attack by hitting the back first, then jumping and turning around and shooting in the middle.

Ma Long's defense is very good, but He Li's shooting is even more unsolvable!

He Li withdrew from the central shot three times in a row, but Ma Long failed to block it once.

However, He Li was affected by physical confrontation, physical strength decline, and shoulder injury. He only scored two iron shots and only scored one goal.

Malone will play against He Li, and then score 2 of 4 shots.

Soon, George Carl called a timeout and sent the big dog up again.

He Li himself knew that this would not work. He temporarily gave up the idea of ​​singles Ma Long, cooperated with other teammates, and tried his best to give Dagou a chance to singles.

However, the big dog who came back on the court did not feel very good, and he also made one shot in three shots.

This made He Li feel that it would be better to fight by himself.

With 3 minutes left in the third quarter, the Jazz sent Stockton back on the court, and at this time the Bucks had only 12 points left to lead the Jazz.

The problem that the Bucks still need to face is that although the Big Dog is not very efficient in the third quarter, their physical strength is consumed quite seriously.

Also, Anthony Mason is too fat and has recovered for 20 minutes, and his physical strength and battery life are still very urgent.

"Coach, I'll try again! Please believe me!"

He Li felt it was necessary to stand up at this time and while ensuring that Kassel and Ray Allen still had the energy, they maintained a 10-point advantage to enter the fourth quarter.

George Carl didn't think the Bucks had a great advantage, so he chose to bring Kassel and Ray Allen all up.

So he nodded and agreed, let He Li hold the ball and play for another 3 minutes.

If it doesn't work next, then Cassel and Ray Allen can only play in advance.

"Rookie, are you still ready to attack the great Carl?" Carl Malone actually seemed a little moved by the courage shown by He Li.

But heroes can only happen off the court!

As an opponent on the court, Karl Malone must break He Li's attack, fighting spirit and belief.

"Great Karl Malone, do you know where your greatness lies?" He Li suddenly respected Ma Long, which made Ma Long unexpected.

"Listen attentively!"

Ma Long wanted to hear what He Li wanted to say next. Of course, at the same time, Ma Long was also ready to defend He Li.

"What's great about you is that you witnessed the beginning of a legend!"

"Start today, praise me!"

He Li did not launch his back to beat him, but jumped up directly against Ma Long's defense.

Ma Long thought He Li wanted to pull it out, so he jumped up, but he didn't expect that He Li would use his straight arm hook in the half-basket.

Although He Li's height and wingspan are not advantageous, Malone has no disadvantages, and the bounce is slightly stronger than Malone.

He Li hooked his arms straight, and Ma Long couldn't block it at all.

If Ma Long wants to defend against He Li, he can only foul the thug.

Ma Long naturally would not make such a low-level mistake, and Ma Long didn't believe it very much. He Li could use a straight arm hook to throw the ball into this distance.

But in reality, things are often the opposite of expectations.

He Li once again faced Ma Long's defense and scored the ball.

"This is impossible!" Ma Long was very surprised to find He Li's goal.

"This must be a coincidence!"

After 43 seconds, He Li told Ma Long with facts that this was not a coincidence.

Within these 43 seconds, He Li successively hit a straight arm hook in the area near the 45-degree angle on the right, facing Ma Long's defense.

In fact, Ma Long also knew that He Li was injured by his left elbow and could not use his strength. He Li had to rely on his hook to score and could only shoot from the right side.

However, even if Ma Long knows where to defend and what kind of strength, and what way to defend, whether he can defend is another matter!

"I can't help but be so annoying!"

Malone felt particularly upset when she heard the Jazz fans cheering him and booing him to He Li.

Malone played with Jabbar and the Magician, and whenever they used the Tiang Hook and the Little Hook, they couldn't help it.

At that time, Malone was young and had a very good bounce ability, but he just couldn't cover the damn ball like Chamberlain did when he defended Jabbar.

Now that he is old and weak, he can't help but be even more unable to defend against He Li.

Ma Long quickly understood that He Li was showing off his physical talent!
