The Way of the Center

♂

　　 "Anjie chose to undergo meniscus repair surgery, and the return date is indefinitely postponed."

　　 "Another meteor? The fatal damage of the meniscus to Anjie."

　　 "The sorrow of Chinese basketball: injuries."

　　 "Yao Ming and An Jie both fell, why are the Chinese not suitable for NBA level competitions?"

　　 News of Anjie’s upcoming comeback in the playoffs spread quickly, but the news that his comeback date was postponed spread even faster! An Jie, who had a promising future in the eyes of the world, was now unanimously sentenced to death by the outside world.

　　 Not to mention what will happen to Anjie’s recovery from injury, just say that he can’t play for one season in a row. Even if he comes back, can he get back to his previous form? The pessimism of Anjie and the fans is not painless groaning.

　　 The Chinese fans found themselves as if they had a dream, a dream of the rise of Chinese basketball.

　　 Yao Ming's status in the NBA gradually increased. Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue joined the NBA. After that, An Jie made a big shot at the NBA. Even Barkley said that in the future, there will be more and more Chinese in the NBA, and this alliance will be ruled by the Chinese in the lower half of the country.

　　 But then? Yao Ming was injured, Yi Jianlian was frustrated after a flash in the pan, Sun Yue couldn't even keep the first team, and An Jie, who had high hopes, disappeared from the court under the meniscus injury. The dream of Chinese fans has awakened, and what greets them is the cruel reality.

　　 On New Year's Day in 2011, Anjie’s parents cooked a lot of delicious meals and brought them to the hospital. But Anjie only took a few bites before putting down his chopsticks.

　　 Now An Jie is not in the mood to enjoy the food. Seeing the distant comeback date and the uncertain future, An Jie is at a loss.

　　 In 2011, the Thunder made their first away game, and the Thunder met the Warriors again. At the beginning of the game, Morris and David Lee were full of gunpowder.

　　 The last time Morris punched David Lee in the face, he was immediately suspended for one game in the league the next day. But even so, Morris didn't have any intention to stop today.

　　 When Morris confronts David Lee, their actions must be great. During the game, the two sides knocked each other down more than once and elbow each other secretly. But overall, Morris took more advantage.

　　 Morris is using this method to fight for An Jie. But to be honest, this has no effect on An Jie's recovery.

　　 After hearing that Anjie’s comeback date would be postponed, Meslav came to the United States again under the pressure of complicated things. Everyone was affected by An Jie's injury, and everyone's heart floated up and down with the boy's injury.

　　 In addition to the fans and players, the managers of each team also reacted differently to An Jie's injury. Looking at this increasingly mature Thunder, Presti actually wavered Anjie's position in the team.

Before 　　, Anjie is definitely an indispensable pillar for the Thunder. But now, Westbrook and Durant's performance is completely superstar level, and Ibaka and Morris are not bad. Of course don't forget, there is another Bledsoe on the bench waiting for the ball. If another Angel comes in, Presti is really worried that the Thunder will not have enough points. Besides, the status of Anjie after his comeback is still unknown.

　　 Anjie's support and low singles ability must be played by holding the ball. Now it is very difficult for Durant and Westbrook to share the ball. Adding an Anjie, wouldn't it be a mess. And Anjie will never be willing to be a blue-collar for Durant and Westbrook like Morris and Ibaka, to be a machine that can only defend, pick and roll and grab rebounds. In the past, the three were all rookies and there was no problem together, but now that the three are all stars, the situation is much different than before. Looking at Bosh's fate next to James and Wade, it is definitely not the ending that Anjie wants.

　　 Now, Presti is looking back at the previous trade proposals. He didn't want to give up An Jie, after all, An Jie was personally traded, and in the past two years of Thunder, An Jie did a very good job. But the fact is that the Thunder now need a better and more reasonable lineup in order to exert greater power. For now, without Anjie, the Thunder are still playing very smoothly, and can even improve the offensive rhythm. Moreover, when he thinks of Anjie's reimbursement for the season, Presti will unconsciously think of Yao Ming. The injuries of Chinese players are always a time bomb. Continue to press Bao on An Jie, the risk is too great.

　　 Of course, An Jie didn't know this completely. He still lived in a muddle-headed manner, living in pain all day long.

　　 Moslav knew that if An Jie continued like this, even if his body recovered, his heart would collapse completely. Out of that strong sense of mission, Meslav felt that he couldn't just watch An Jie sink in. He must do something to regain the confidence of his young client.

　　 So in the next few days, Anjie will always see Wade, Duncan, Kobe and others playing games on TV. In fact, this was deliberately shown by Meslav to An Jie. The reason is very simple. These guys are real warriors and great beings who have defeated injuries. Meslav hopes that Anjie will find sympathy in them and find the courage to persevere.

　　 At the beginning, Anjie hadn't noticed Meslav's good intentions. Anyway, he doesn't want to talk to others now, so he can watch whatever they give him.

　　 Until one day, he saw the tenacity of Kobe's finger injury, the courage to end the game after playing with the injury. Until one day, he saw Duncan, who was no longer young and could not fully straighten one leg, and the young Warriors battle to the final determination. It was not until one day that Anjie watched a talk show that he learned that the lightning-fast Wade had actually removed his meniscus as early as in college, but he still came to the NBA for a brave attempt to kill the Quartet.

　　 The actions of these great guys touched An Jie a lot. It was the same injury, others were still struggling, and even before the operation, they began to complain and complain, which is really shameful! The game of these guys invisibly stimulated An Jie's heart.

　　 In this regard, Anjie is never humble. They are men, and so am I! They can bear it, so can I! He has not forgotten that he once threatened to beat Kobe in the playoffs last season, and his winning ** is on par with Kobe. He has not forgotten his excitement when he surpassed Duncan and came to the best second team. Could it be that Anjie couldn't do what a person ranked behind him can do?

　　 Leave tomorrow unreservedly to the present, without thinking about the future. As long as you work hard now, even if you really can't play or can't play well in the future, you won't regret it, right? At this moment, Anjie chose to be strong.

　　 After that, Anjie became more and more cooperating with the doctor's treatment, and gradually talked more. An Jie knew that his surgery might not be a success, but now he had a chance to come back only if he let it go and faced it bravely. Instead of being greedy and fearful of death here, it is better to go all out and fight to the death!

　　 An Jie, who was inspired by Wade, Kobe and Duncan, has become better and better mentally, and his mood has changed from despair to perseverance. It wasn't until the NBA All-Star Weekend kicked off on February 2011 that Anjie was finally officially put on the operating table.

　　 On that day, Van Gundy finally had a chance to come to the hospital, guarding An Jie to perform the entire operation. The NBA originally arranged for Van Gundy to be the head coach of this year's Western Conference Stars, but at the moment those things are not important to Van Gundy. An Jie's injury is what he has always worried about. So he refused the NBA's official invitation and came to Oklahoma alone.

　　 The operation took a long time, about 8 hours. But the people waiting for An Jie outside have been engrossed in this period of time, and dare not relax in the slightest. This is an operation that determines An Jie's career, and these people who care about him are naturally very nervous.

　　 An Jie, who can be operated on, is very relaxed, because no matter what the result is, he has decided to fight with this **** injury to the end!

　　 An Jie is such a guy, maybe he will be temporarily confused and weak when he is young. But in essence, An Jie is a guy who dared to fight hard, not afraid of hardships and difficulties. From college to midnight, he relied on strong will to defend the opponent's star scorer again and again in the NBA. All of this showed An Jie's strong will at all times. Since An Jie came to the United States to play, the two words persistence and perseverance have been running through it.

　　 Now that he is inspired by Meslavian's usage, he is not afraid of this. Gritting his teeth, there is no difficulty that can't be turned over. He will do his best to get rid of the **** injury. No matter how painful this process is, Anjie is fearless.

　　 In such a benign mood, An Jie was finally pushed out of the operating room after 8 hours of major surgery. Now, An Jie has officially become one of the professional athletes who have used knives on his body.

　　 "How about the doctor?" Meslav and Van Gundy were the first to get up, while Anjie's parents sat aside, not daring to listen to the results of the operation. If An Jie had to remove the meniscus once the operation failed, then An Jie's NBA career would almost come to an end.

　　 "Ann's meniscus repair is still successful. Now, it depends on the effect of the subsequent enhancement of the repair surgery." The doctor sweated profusely, thinking of the surgery experience just now, it was really close.

　　 "God, thank you!" Van Gundy let out a sigh of relief, as if he had won an important game. But Meslav covered his face and finally got the result. After so many months of injuries, he finally got the result.

　　 As for Anjie's mother, she lay directly on his father's shoulder and started crying. Which mother can bear this kind of torture for her son. Now, everything is about to pass.

　　 An Jie's seemingly reimbursable career has rekindled new hope. An Jie was still asleep with his eyes closed under the effect of the anesthetic, but everyone present knew that the child's heart had been fighting hard.

　　.........................

　　 After the cold winter from November to March, in the morning of April, the sun once again appeared in Anjie’s window. This time, when the window was opened, it was no longer a cool breeze, but bunches of warm sunshine. This bunch of sunshine makes the ward and the owner of the ward seem to be full of vitality and hope again.

　　 "Are you awake, Ann?" Just as Anjie put his head out the window, he heard Catherine calling herself behind him. The girl gave up the most important Paris Fashion Week performance of her career, resolutely let go of everything to take care of Anjie. It is now the third month that Catherine has been with Anjie in Oklahoma. Almost the day after Anjie finished the operation, Catherine came to the hospital until now.

　　 "Today is in good spirits, let's go, Catherine, let's go to the garden." Three months have passed since I was injured in December. During this period, An Jie's mood also experienced great ups and downs, from the initial low to the current positive. He felt that this serious injury seemed to make his heart stronger and more mature.

"The doctor said you can't walk on this foot yet." Catherine said, lying on An Jie's back. Even though the man is now in a relatively weak stage, An Jie's back is still so strong that it can give people enough safety. sense.

　　 "You support me, I use a walking stick, and we walk slowly." An Jie took a breath of the Chinese New Year air, this cold winter, he is going to get moldy in the ward. But now, the cold winter will finally pass.

　　 Across a path, Anjie and Catherine came to the hospital’s huge artificial lake. Although the treatment is not over yet, Anjie feels that he is getting better every day. Although injured and hospitalized, Anjie is always concerned about the Thunder's season progress.

　　 This season's regular season will be over in one and a half months. The Thunder performed well and now ranks third in the Western Conference. For the current Thunder team, the playoffs can no longer be regarded as a goal, but a minimum standard that must be achieved.

　　 The team's outstanding performance is both good and bad for Anjie. As for the bad point, that is, the Thunder, which lacks Anjie, still get good results, which will make the fans forget Anjie more quickly.

　　 When Anjie was injured, countless Thunder fans felt that the sky was falling. But now that the Thunder are so good, fans only occasionally remember: Oh, yes, we seem to have a super center that can't be played.

　　 But who cares? As long as the team can win, there is no difference between who is more and who is less.

Durant and Westbrook have laid the foundation stone of the Thunder, and Morris and Ibaka have become the defensive backbone of the Thunder~www.NovelMTL.com~ Bledsoe is considered to be the new Thunder three. a part of. As for Anjie, it has rarely been mentioned.

　　 Now An Jie seems to be outside the system of the Thunder. No, not maybe, this is a fact.

　　 A major injury reimbursed for a season has caused An Jie to miss too much. But coming back is bound to be a difficult and long process. An Jie still remembers when he played last time, this season has just begun. But now, the 10-11 season is coming to an end.

　　 An Jie did nothing this season and was receiving treatment all day long. He didn't know what else he could do when he stepped into the basketball court again.

　　 But Anjie is not afraid, just like the sunshine in April. An Jie's heart is also full of hope. He doesn't care what kind of difficulties stand in front of him, he only knows that he must succeed, he has no choice.

　　 The Thunder team has begun to prepare for the impact of the championship, and An Jie, who is able to move freely, has also taken the first step in his return.

　　In a corner where no one pays attention, Anjie, the butcher of the Eastern Tower and Oklahoma, has already begun to prepare for a comeback.
