What's even worse is that too many first-round draft picks were given away in order to make the Big Three famous. It would be very difficult for them to use the contracts of the two and the draft picks.

But the good news is that with Chandler entering, last year's second-round pick Landry Fields performed well.

In addition, Tony Douglas on the back line is also a master of chaos, and D'Antoni likes to use the 8-man rotation method, which is barely enough.

Whether it is Miami or New York, the first year of the Big Three lineup is relatively the most difficult.

…

When he heard about the team's trade, Lin Ying's mood was a little complicated.

First, because he has a close relationship with Butler, and coupled with Kobe's relationship, they can even be considered good friends.

But now the guy who gave him one more phone call to celebrate has been traded away.

And this deal is indeed a deal to strengthen the Suns, and you can't say "business is just business".

The second reason is because of Oden.

He and Oden had a big battle in Naa, and later Tang Tian and Yang Shuyi got to know each other because of Oden.

In total, the two of them have quite a few bonds.

Now that he and Oden are teammates, things are still very interesting.

If it is three, it has something to do with the previous life.

At that time, a topic that was mentioned by many people was whether Oden could be saved after joining the Suns.

Is there any help?

Lin Ying doesn’t know this either.

Only time can tell the answer to what has never happened.

But judging from the management's decision, they still have confidence in Oden.

In other words, Dr. Carter is confident in treating Oden.

On the first day after the trade deadline, everyone in the Suns bid farewell to Butler.

Most people feel reluctant to give up.

The experience last season made Butler's story known to more people, and also allowed him and the Suns players to know that he was not a thorn in the side, and they formed a friendship.

Now that he is gone, most people are naturally reluctant to part with him.

"Caron, take it easy when you go to Portland."

Lin Ying said jokingly while hugging Butler.

Although it was a joke, it was also true.

In history, Gerald Wallace went to the Trail Blazers this season. The result was not embarrassing, but he was sent away by the Trail Blazers after one season.

The fundamental reason is that Wallace is the forward swingman, and the Trail Blazers have Batum and Aldridge at these two positions. As a result, it would be embarrassing to trade an All-Star to play as a substitute.

On the other hand, Butler is a swingman, and he is obviously much more experienced than Matthews, so he can give the Trail Blazers more help in the playoffs.

So if Butler goes, he is expected to get a lot of playing time, which will be better than his current situation with the Suns.

Of course the only problem is the Blazers "vet" he calls them.

Butler has suffered a serious injury now, and his career could easily be ruined if he is really messed up.

Butler nodded, he also got the deep meaning in Lin Ying's smile.

Two days later, Oden passed the physical and arrived in the Suns locker room.

What a vicissitude!

Although Lin Ying played against the Trail Blazers a lot in the past few years, Oden often wore a suit and didn't wear a suit, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

Now looking back at the scene during the draft, it turns out that four years can make a person change so much.

But when he saw Lin Ying, Oden was also very happy. He smiled and hugged her.

Lin Ying also played the role of a middleman at this time, introducing Oden to everyone on the Suns.

If he does this, Oden's integration in the Suns will be much smoother.

While they were chatting, Dr. Carter came in to see Auden.

Oden turned to look at Lin Ying, who also followed him out.

Doctor Carter didn't say anything. He was already very familiar with Lin Ying.

He led the two of them to the medical center, and Lin Ying discovered that James Zhou was also there.

They were looking for Oden, naturally, about Oden's knee injury.

It was a familiar scene. After Zhou Zai motioned Oden to lie down and check, he soon discovered the problem of leg length.

Then there is some communication.

What Lin Ying never expected was that the Trail Blazers' team doctor didn't believe Tang Tian before!

The veterinarian is convinced!

But the good thing is that Oden trusts Tang Tian very much, so he has been using foot pads in the past four years.

This is also the reason why his current injury situation is much better than expected.

There was an episode in the middle where Zhou actually became interested in Tang Tian.

At the end of the conversation, Dr. Carter also said that he and Zhou were preparing a treatment, or a plan for Oden's knee injury.

First, continue to use foot pads, but they will use materials with better cushioning properties. After all, this is NASA's medical team.

Second, they will perform targeted training on Oden's tight hip muscles to relax them, just like they did with O'Neal.

This sounds a bit strange, but the fact is that after learning that Oden's long and short legs were caused by hip surgery when he was a child, they have determined that Oden's hip muscles are in a state of chronic tension, which makes him

The force exerted is more uneven, which also increases the risk of injury.

Third, they will specifically train Oden's method of exerting force so that he can minimize or even avoid landing on one knee during the game.

Fourth, they will propose that the team strictly control Oden's playing time to about 25 minutes. This is a method that can maximize the number of games he plays.

fifth,……

There is a lot of content.

Moreover, it is professional enough.

Not to mention Oden, after listening to this, Lin Ying even more recognized that his team doctor is a super assistant in the medical field, which can be compared to the existence of Grover in the training field.

As for Auden himself, he nodded while listening.

By the end, Lin Ying saw that the circles under his eyes were a little red.

This is also understandable.

Previously in Portland, Oden was the No. 1 pick, but the team valued him more for his performance on the court and his performance that made the outside world no longer question him.

As for injuries, more conservative treatment is chosen.

To put it more bluntly, we just ignore the small problems and fix the big ones later.

Although the doctors who performed the surgery on him were actually very professional, when it came to injuries, prevention was the first priority, rather than remediation after injury.

So he was very frustrated and depressed.

But now, he has lost the aura of being the top pick, but the Suns have still done so much for him.

This feeling is like you are used to eating chaff, and suddenly one day you are told that there is big fish and meat for lunch, and it has been put on the table.

You won't help but want to cry!

"I have a question."

At the end, Auden choked up uncontrollably.

"Don't I need surgery?"

Because he has had too many surgeries, he is now a bit "talkative".

"Operation?"

Dr. Carter was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile and said in a gentle tone,
Chapter completed!
