Vogel knew that whenever he opened his mouth, Wang Yi’s answer would always be those three words:
no problem!
But Wang Yi's current physical condition is obviously problematic.
Vogel also wanted to let Wang Yi play as he did before.
When he feels pain and discomfort, he will regret it and learn to behave.
I know how to fight in the future.
But after so many previous games and the first half just now, he already knew that this was obviously not feasible for Wang Yi.
This guy doesn't know how to use his strength in the game.
As soon as you get on the field, you must go all out.
He didn't go to play ball, he just went to work hard.
So Vogel hesitated and finally looked at Dennis Schroeder:
"Dennis, you started the second half instead of Wang Yi."
Wang Yi's fiery gaze suddenly dimmed.
He understood the coach's thoughts, and the coach also wanted to let him rest for a while.
But he still wants to fight!
Life goes on and the fight goes on.
This is his fate.
Schroeder didn't expect that the coach would let him start in the second half. He was overjoyed and stood up quickly: "Yes, coach!"
When he first joined the Lakers, he received a promise from the Lakers that he must start.
But later it turned out that with the Lakers' James having his own system, his style of play that requires a lot of holding the ball simply couldn't be played.
So he later accepted the substitute position.
But every player has a starting heart.
Now that he can start again, he is naturally happy.
Soon, the second half begins.
When Nuggets coach Malone saw that the Lakers did not send Wang Yi again, he smiled - although he did not smile on his face, he smiled secretly in his heart.
Sure enough, that lunatic was dying.
His altitude sickness was so severe that he couldn't even go on stage.
As for giving him an extra ten or twenty minutes to rest and expecting him to come out and fight again?
Haha, stop joking.
Coach Malone knows very well that for players who suffer from severe altitude sickness, you can either hold on until the end - although this won't last long.
Or just stop it.
Because after a period of rest, when you go on the field again, the second altitude sickness will be more severe than before.
He shared his findings with the players.
The players were also secretly happy.
The lunatic finally stopped playing.
It's so scary.
Some spectators at the scene saw Wang Yi lying on the ground and still stretching, and they all started to get nervous again.
"Hey, this patient didn't play."
"With how sick he is, even if he goes on the field, he won't be able to perform well. We can't expect him to go on the field and scare our players to death with his pale face, right?"
When Sanders saw Wang Yi at this time, the smile on his face became even brighter:
"That's it. This guy has lost his fighting ability."
Brown also laughed proudly: "This madman is now a patient. Should we call an ambulance for them?"
Wang Yi was lying on the floor. In the noisy arena, he heard a loud voice:
"Sick man, go home and recuperate, hahahaha..."
He shook his head slightly.
Some people just don't have long memories.
…
In the eight minutes without Wang Yi, the Lakers players' performance was indeed unsatisfactory due to varying degrees of altitude sickness.
There are those who strike iron one after another;
There are constant mistakes;
James even missed a free throw once.
But fortunately, James is used to this kind of scene. With his strong field control experience, the team will not be beaten to death by the opponent.
But the point difference continued to be eroded.
When James came off the court with four minutes left in the third quarter, even as strong as he was, he was out of breath.
"Hoo-ho-ho-"
He kept taking deep breaths, trying to recover as soon as possible.
But age no longer allows it.
He is no longer the little emperor who was able to play vigorously in overtime after 48 minutes of fierce battle.
He is a hobbled, old king who can only paddle in the regular season.
Although he knew that he still had gas in the tank.
But that oil is reserved for the playoffs.
In the regular season, just play casually.
There was a thick cushion on his bench, and he sank into it.
ad has also suffered from altitude sickness.
Although it wasn't that severe, my head already hurt a little.
His M-shaped eyebrows wrinkled into an M-shape again.
His chest was also heaving violently, and he was breathing heavily.
Once again, he deeply felt what the devil's home court was.
This is one of his most hated home stadiums.
Here, even if you lead by 30 points at halftime, you can't say you're guaranteed to win.
Because once the altitude sickness comes out in the second half, the Nuggets may be outcast in an instant.
At this time, the score difference is still 15 points.
James and Thick Eyebrow couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Wang Yi.
At this time, Wang Yi's face was no longer as pale as before, but still a little pale.
"king……"
James drank some water and was about to speak.
Wang Yi stood up and said, "No problem!"
James nodded: "Brother, it's up to you. As long as you can maintain the current point difference, in the last 5 minutes of the fourth quarter, we will fight together!"
Coach Vogel saw that Wang Yi was almost rested, but he still hesitated.
Because he knows how painful Wang Yi will be if a second wave of altitude sickness hits.
At that time, it is very likely that he will not be able to play for even a second.
But at this time, both Nongmei and James had slight altitude sickness, and they had to be allowed to rest.
There must be an attack point on the field.
Then it can only be Wang Yi.
As for Schroeder, he can only be regarded as the team's fourth firepower now.
Wang Yi stepped onto the court, and in his eyes, the flame of battle burned again.
The stadium is his battlefield!
As long as he plays, he will fight hard!
The fans jeered again.
Although he couldn't hear the TV commentator's voice, he could definitely imagine how the home commentator was mocking him.
sick seedlings;
disabled people;
sick man……
Now is the time to break all this!
Across the way, Nuggets head coach Malone kept pointing at Wang Yi.
Wang Yi knew that he was emphasizing to his teammates that he had altitude sickness and was physically exhausted.
He is emphasizing that this is their opportunity.
hehe.
A smile appeared on Wang Yi's face unconsciously.
The game continues.
Nuggets ball possession.
As they dribbled forward, Wang Yi shouted to the substitute players on the Lakers court:
"Give me the ball when you get the rebound!"
Caruso, Kuzma, Garrett, and Harrell all looked at Wang Yi.
Finally, everyone nodded: "Understood!"
Soon, Murray had dribbled the ball to the Lakers half.
I asked the teacher to take a break, and he led the team alone, which was always a bit out of his depth.
He called a screen, bypassed Wang Yi, and took a mid-range shot.
Easy hit.
He clenched his fists tightly and roared: "Yes!"
The score difference was chased to 13 points!
However, before he finished speaking, a purple figure had already passed by him, quickly ran out of the three-point line and headed towards the Lakers' frontcourt.
not good!
Murray was shocked and quickly shouted: "Return to defense!"
However, it's too late.
Xiaoqiu served the baseline ball.
The trajectory drawn by the basketball is like an arch bridge spanning the entire court.
Chapter completed!
