One Guard

The Mavericks chief team doctor Benjamin held the temperature gun in his hand and pressed it against Yiyang's forehead. Yiyang's temperature data immediately appeared on the small electronic screen.

"Damn, it's such a high-tech?" Rudy Gobert leaned over and took a look. This pistol-like thing can measure body temperature with just a "shot" at the head? He still remembered that he went to the hospital when he was sick, and the nurse sister still used the mercury thermometer that needed to be clamped under the armpit.

This kid really hasn't been to the hospital for many years...

37.1℃, this is the number measured on the small electronic screen. Benjamin let out a sigh of relief. Although he had a low fever, it was still within control.

"How?" Carlisle, holding his forehead, retracted his gaze from the window. The snowy world outside did not make Carlisle feel beautiful at all, but rather irritable.

Fuck the extreme cold!

"Low-grade fever, I will get him some medicine, cover the quilt tonight, and turn on the air conditioner. If everything goes well, tomorrow should be much better." Benjamin replied 15 to 10, and then he looked at Zheng Na. Gobert playing with a thermometer. "And you Rudy, I'm afraid you have to live in a room by yourself. If you are with Yi, you are likely to be infected."

"Me? I won't be infected, don't worry!"

"Okay Rudy, I'm going to reopen a room for you. Tonight, let me have a good rest." Carlisle is not in the mood to play with Gobert now. The team is winning 20 games in a row in history. At the crossroads, there was such a **** thing.

The Toronto Raptors themselves this season is not a provocative master. Under the leadership of DeRozan and Kyle Lowry, the Raptors have performed very well this season. They are undoubtedly the strong team in the East, and they still play at home. The Mavericks want to win at the Air Canada Center Arena, not as easy as people think.

As a result, Yiyang is still suffering from the flu. This is undoubtedly a huge blow to Carlisle.

Throughout the night, Carlisle could not sleep well over and over. He was thinking about what he should do if Yiyang can't play tomorrow, how to arrange tactics, how to limit Lowry, and who should be the first scoring point...

But these complicated things can't just be thought of just lying on the bed. Otherwise, the NBA head coach's bowl of rice is too delicious.

Carlisle didn't think of a result, but the sky was bright. The next day I woke up and looked in the mirror, and Carlisle's "classic" dark circles shape appeared again.

After washing, Carlisle's first thing is to check Yiyang's situation. When he and the sleepy Benjamin knocked on the door of Yiyang's room, Yiyang who came to open the door was a typical sick person.

Godless eyes, weak limbs, red nose. I looked through Yiyang's shoulder and looked into the room. Sure enough, there were small paper **** everywhere on the ground. God knows if Yiyang wiped his nose so many times yesterday and had no time to sleep.

"God, you are simply supporting an entire paper mill!" Benjamin shook his head in disbelief. It stands to reason that Yiyang shouldn't be so serious.

He subconsciously reached out and touched Yiyang's forehead, his brows frowned, it was hot!

"Boss, it's so early." When Carlisle and Benjamin walked into the room, Yiyang fell on the bed again. This guy has a lot of strength now, and it takes a lot of effort to get up and open the door, let alone play basketball.

"It seems that the situation is more serious than we thought. This morning, the body temperature has become 37.6℃." Benjamin took Yiyang's body temperature and curled his lips.

"Okay, let's take him to the hospital for a drip."

"Drip? What about training and competition?" Yiyang suddenly "played" from the bed after hearing Carlisle say this.

"Let's take a day off, the game, hand it to us." Carlisle tried to squeeze a smile at Yiyang, and put on the appearance of winning.

"How can this work!?" But his smile didn't move Yiyang, Yiyang retorted loudly. Want to make this guy a truce? Unless the league gives him a penalty ticket!

Yiyang didn't have the experience of playing with injuries before. His eyebrows were broken, fingers were sprained, and so on, but these didn't make Yiyang give up. He once put on a mask to fight, and also tied his protective gear to his fingers to continue shooting.

But the flu is different. You don't have any protective gear to wear this thing. Moreover, the symptoms of fatigue and dizziness are not something that you can reduce by focusing on the game and forbearing.

"The flu is a big or small thing, so don't fight with me. If the disease has been dragged down, then the gain will not be worth the loss!" Carlisle did not accept Yiyang's rebuttal. This season is still growing, Yiyang's illness If it has been dragged badly, the impact on the team will be even greater.

"Hey, let me try it on the training ground! If it doesn't work, I will listen to you!" Yiyang knows that nothing can convince a person better than direct action. If he can maintain a good condition in today's training, then Carlisle has nothing to say.

Carlisle couldn't talk about Yiyang, so he nodded and agreed. Yiyang smiled, then fell limply on the bed again...

Darren Collison saw Yiyang control the ball towards him, his heart was very nervous. It stands to reason that He Yiyang has been teammates for two seasons and has played countless times on the training ground. Collison should not have this kind of psychology.

But today he was nervous not because Yiyang was strong, but because he was afraid that once he exerted force, he would push Yiyang down.

When Yiyang controlled the ball halftime, the pace was messy. It seems that when the wind blows gently, he will be blown down directly.

"Tsk tusk tusk, what else is he playing like this!" Carlisle held his forehead, this guy can't even hold the ball now, playing on the court is simply a fantasy.

Yiyang is now fighting against Collison. As a teammate, Collison protects him everywhere. But in the official game, will Lowry show mercy to Yiyang's men because of the flu? ? If so, then Lori must also have a fever, and he also burned his head!

It's no exaggeration to describe Yiyang's performance in the afternoon as horrible. It's impossible to make a shot, and you don't make a three-pointer. Yiyang felt fatigued even to stand up, and even jumped up to shoot, he couldn't find balance at all. The shots floated one after another, and finally their physical strength dropped, and they floated so that they couldn't even touch the basket.

What about the breakthrough? If it weren't for Collison's release, Yiyang might not even be able to make a breakthrough. After breaking into the inside, Gobert also rewarded Yiyang for several big risks. The French raised his hands and swear to the sky, I have tried my best to release the water.

During the entire 20 minutes of confrontational training, Yiyang couldn't score, couldn't organize, and even the running tactics were half a beat slow. How omnipotent he is usually, he is as omnipotent as he is today.

Facing his own performance, Yiyang was also very helpless. After sweating, the runny nose is relieved, but the symptoms of dizziness and fatigue are not serious.

"How about? Do you still fight?" Carlisle stared at Yiyang. He didn't need to make arrangements for him now. Yiyang should also know what to do.

Playing in his state will not only help the team, but it will also slow down. Not everyone is Jordan, who can withstand the high temperature of 38 ℃ goes down in history. Not everyone is like Dirk, who can withstand a 40 ℃ fever and lead the team to the championship.

The two greatest flu battles in NBA history are great precisely because not everyone can reproduce them.

Yiyang smirked Carlisle, he compromised. Besides, even if the Mavericks don't play in this game, the Mavericks will not necessarily lose.

With this thought, Yiyang put on the training clothes and "watching the fire from across the bank" on the sidelines. During the Rockets' 22-game winning streak, Yao Ming was also injured midway. Maybe the Mavericks can continue their winning streak without themselves today?

Holding this kind of fluke psychology, but it is very dangerous...

How long has it been since the Toronto Raptors made the playoffs? As of last year, there have been four seasons.

For four seasons, this NBA team outside the United States has been an underdog. As long as they meet the Toronto Raptors, no matter how desperate the team is, they seem to see hope in them.

"The XXX team scored a big score to kill the dragon and end the losing streak!" Such news has appeared in endlessly in the past four seasons, and the reporters are even bored! Of course, the experience of these four seasons is equally uncomfortable for the Raptors players.

Especially for DeRozan and Lowry.

When he first entered the NBA, DeRozan's locker was arranged next to the boss Bosh. DeRozan was still imagining that he could learn from the All-Star power forward, become the best partner with him, and then lead the Raptors to rise again!

But just one season later, Bosh turned and went to Miami. For DeRozan, who was new to the league, he had no idea what happened at that time. Overnight, the Raptors lost the Dragon King.

Then Lowry came. The short defender was arranged to use Bosh's locker, yes, it was still next to DeRozan.

Lowry has no affection for the icy and snowy Toronto. The Rockets sent him to this ghost place that no one cares about just for a first-round pick. Lowry is very annoyed. What he was thinking at the time was how to quickly escape from this frozen northern land.

So, Lowry and DeRozan and everyone else on the Raptors do not have too much intersection. Go to the arena, say hello politely, train, end, say goodbye politely, nothing more, ordinary colleague relations.

Then last season, the Raptors "lived up" and were again rejected from the playoffs, and on the 9th of last month, Rudy Gay was also traded to Sacramento by management.

At this time, looking at the entire locker room, the Raptors are truly headless. Tired of failure, Lori looked at the black and thin guard beside him, who was taller than him. He knew that he could only rely on them now.

"I'm counting on us now, or do it well, or we have to get out!" Lowry said to DeRozan the night Gay left Toronto.

Until then, DeRozan and Lowry ~www.novelmtl.com~ did not really establish a "teammate" relationship.

As a result, these two guys began to fight the entire East! This season, their performance is staggering. Looking at the entire Eastern Conference, apart from the two top teams in the league, the Heat and the Pacers, the Raptors have the best performance.

Lowry and DeRozan started to win and liked the feeling of winning. Their relationship is getting better and better, and there is more and more tacit understanding on the court. At this point, the Raptors have a record of 20 wins and 20 losses, allowing them to sit firmly in the top five in the Eastern Conference. But just a few days ago, the Raptors unexpectedly lost to the declining Lakers and the blinding Bobcats, experiencing two consecutive losses.

If put before, the two-game losing streak is no surprise to the Raptors. But this season, Lowry and DeRozan will not allow their losing streak to develop.

Therefore, today I ran into the Dallas Mavericks at home. Even if the opponent is very strong, they must fight for the next victory to stop the losing streak!

"DeMar, you are in good shape today." Seeing DeRozan on the training field once again hit the shot against the interference of John Salmons, Lowry couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

DeRozan scratched his head embarrassedly, then quickly retreated. Off the court, the veteran Raptors black coach Dwyane Casey was also very pleased. With DeRozan's excellent state, it seems that it is not an impossible task to defeat the Mavericks at home today.

Now DeRozan and Lowry have a high desire to win, they will not easily surrender!

At this moment, the Raptors assistant coach leaned into Casey's ear and whispered a few words.

Casey's expressionless face was suddenly startled, and he turned to look at his assistant.

"Can you say that again?"

"I got reliable news just now. Tonight's game will not be played because of the flu!" The assistant coach replied truthfully under Casey's pressing question.
