"Anjie came on the court with an injury and still scored 28                                                       

"Anthony. David: It's not a malicious foul, it's just trying to defend."

"Monty   .     Williams: Ann is a great player, no one wants to be an opponent of him."

The next morning, the headlines of various newspapers and sports sectors were occupied by An Jie again. But this time, the pictures of each media were not An Jie's explosive dunk or violent blocking. All media used the moment when An Jie's fingers were abnormally bent as news pictures.

Just seeing that picture, everyone couldn't help but shout "God". But that guy Anjie forced the fourth quarter to finish the game under such circumstances. What people don't know is that he will not be absent in any of the subsequent games.

"You idiot!" Catherine's screams and cries were filled with crying voices on the phone.

"I'm fine, even the doctor said I can play on the court." Of course, the doctor didn't say that, but Anjie had to lie to Catherine.

"If you have injuries, just rest. Even if you wait for your injury to recover, the Trail Blazers can still make it to the playoffs. Your current record is 18 wins and 4 losses. Even without you, even if they lose some goals, the Trail Blazers can still remain in the top eight. In the playoffs, you will fight for the championship again, isn't that good?" Catherine really couldn't understand why Anjie sacrificed his health for a job. Sometimes Katherine would think, which one is more important to Anjie, basketball or herself.

"It's different. If we rank too low, the more difficult it will be in the playoffs. The team must strive to maintain the top spot so that we can increase the chance of advancing in the playoffs. Don't worry, Katherine, I know very well my own body."

"I will come to see you these days until your injury is cured. Before that, I won't take any work." Afterwards, Catherine's tone became tough.

"Hey, you can't delay your own work because of this."

"I have decided that you have the right to choose, and I have it too. I will come to take care of you until you recover." Catherine started packing her luggage while making a phone call.

"Okay, okay, hehe." An Jie smirked. It was boring to go home every day to face such an empty house. After all, he couldn't mess with his teammates outside every day.

After talking to Catherine, Anjie took his belongings out and prepared to start a new day of training.

An Jie is driving very slowly now because his two bandaged fingers cannot be bent at all, which has somewhat affected his driving. When he finally "climbed" to the door of the Rose Garden, it was only ten minutes before the start of the training. It seems that he will have to go out earlier in the future.

Before the training began, An Jie did not warm up with his teammates, but asked the team doctor to fix his fingers in the infirmary.

This kind of fixation is different from ordinary fixation. In order to allow An Jie to move as freely as possible on the basketball court, the fixation given by the team doctor usually does not wrap An Jie's fingers too thick. But in order to prevent the injury from escalating, the team doctor had to tie An Jie's two injured fingers together with a bandage to play a role in fixing each other.

"That's it?" An Jie looked at his fingers that were not as exaggerated as before, but still unable to move after being tied together. He was glad that he was injured by his left hand, and if he had the right hand, he would probably not be able to even make the most basic shot.

"Be careful, if you feel uncomfortable during training, come to me." Team Doctor Xi patted An Jie on the back, and An Jie happily stepped onto the training ground. But when the training began, the situation was not as smooth as An Jie thought.

When he was training for a low-level singles at the basket with the trainer, An Jie found that after turning around, he controlled the ball with his left hand, he became less comfortable. And his right head with his left hand was also greatly affected. As for shooting, although his left hand was just an assistant, for An Jie, who is used to shooting with both hands, his left hand was unnatural, which also made his shooting percentage less stable.

It's not as simple as An Jie thought to be on the court.

Ricard and Divac were silently observing Anjie's training throughout the whole process. As expected, as they thought in advance, Anjie's performance was a mess. Suddenly, you were deprived of the right to use both fingers, and even your daily life would be affected, let alone playing basketball.

"I don't think God has completely abandoned us yet." Ricard looked at Angel's hook again, not only shook his head.

"At least he left An with three days to adapt." Ricard looked at the schedule before training today, and the Trail Blazers had a rare three-day "long holiday". Taking advantage of these three days to make An Jie adapt to his new state, which will be beneficial or harmless to his next game.

"I hope three days are enough for him to adapt." Divac said, walking towards Anjie. At this time, he must teach Anjie some experience.

"Okay, stop and stop first." Just as Anjie was about to start confronting the trainer holding the pads again, Divac's voice suddenly burst out.

"An, you're uncomfortable with the fight?" Divac said, looking at Anjie's hand.

Anjie nodded silently and sat cross-legged.

"Listen, you have to learn to control the basketball with three fingers. As far as your big hand is concerned, this is not a problem at all." Divac said, picking up the basketball on the ground and completing a hook with only three fingers.

"Your fingers are not completely useless. Don't treat them as fingers, and use them naturally. Although those two fingers cannot be strong or moved, fixed basketball can still be done." After Divac said, he passed the basketball to Anjie.

"Do you use three fingers?" An Jie held the basketball, thinking.

"As long as you survive this period, believe me, you will become stronger." After Divac said, he personally supervised Anjie's training next to him and guided him in time. In three days, there is only three days left for the Trail Blazers and Anjie. In these three days, Divac must rack his brains to make Anjie, whose fingers were injured, become the same as before!

Three days later, Anjie, who played again, must be the one who still has dominance! Anjie cannot do this by himself. But with Divac's guidance, everything is different.

................

At 10 o'clock in the evening, a cool breeze blew in the winter Portland night. The night security guard at the Rose Garden Stadium couldn't help but wrap his big cotton coat tightly and walked out of the warm duty booth.

"Huhuhuhuhuhu......Huntian is so fucking annoying!" The security guard cursed and walked into the interior of the rose garden in the shaking winter wind.

"Okay                                                             �

Half an hour later, the security guard walked into the player's passage. He would stop in front of all rooms to check whether the door was locked.

The media reception room was locked. Training ground No. 2 was normal. Training ground No. 1                                                    

The security guard looked in curiously. There were a few lights in the training ground that were on. Under the lamp, An Jie, who was wrapped in a bandage in one hand, continued to try the trick of controlling the basketball with three fingers.

He looked exhausted, his fingers were swollen and big. But this Chinese man had no intention of stopping. He was still concentrating on training, so focused that he didn't even see someone leaning in at the entrance of the training ground.

"Come on, An." The security guard smiled and shook his head, gently closed the door of the training ground, without making a sound, and naturally it did not affect An Jie's training.

Afterwards, the security guard continued to patrol the player's passage with a flashlight. This winter, there were people in the rose garden who worked harder than him and were sweating silently..

Blow Anthony                                                                                                                             

But how many people can see the efforts behind all this?
