Chapter 127 Phoenix Old, Weak and Disabled Team

Next to him, Falcao asked anxiously why.

Chen Yu said: "The first thing is age. You are already 39 years old and at the end of your career."

As early as last year, Chen Yu met Ewing.

At that time, Chen Yu felt that it was not worthwhile to waste the treatment effect on Ewing. After all, he was about to retire.

And now he said the same thing, not because he was reluctant to treat himself.

Now Chen Yu is actually not lacking in therapeutic effects. He has a stable way to obtain them, so he won't be reluctant to give up these two therapeutic effects.

"I think your request now is very simple, which is to be able to play healthily in the last one or two seasons." He is not like Hill Hardaway. He is still young and is already 39. He can't wait to play for another year or two. , like Olajuwon, making a last-ditch effort for the championship.

Ewing frowned. Chen Yu was right about this.

Chen Yu continued: "Last season, you were in good condition and almost full attendance. In this case, surgery might have the opposite effect."

His ligaments, Achilles tendon, and wrist are all good now and can still be used.

You can't cut it all off and repair it again.

If you do that, the recovery period will be too long, at least eight or nine months, and half the season will pass.

Moreover, the human body is very amazing. He can now play ball. All the organs form a delicate balance. If he hastily undergoes surgery and breaks the balance, it will lead to new problems.

It is better to carry out conservative treatment.

If you maintain and improve it in its current state, it will last longer.

"Conservative treatment?" Ewing hesitated and asked tentatively, "Can't we just do surgery?"

In Ewing's view, conservative treatment is the same as when he was with the SuperSonics, taking medicine, reducing playing time, and taking more rest, which has limited improvement in status.

Ewing hopes to regain his health and return to the age when he was killing everyone.

"You want to have surgery, right? You can." Chen Yu pointed to the film: "Repair the wrist ligaments, then reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament of the right knee, perform an allograft on the meniscus, and perform microfracture reconstruction on the cartilage. There are also some The Achilles tendon also needs surgery to repair."

"You can calculate how many operations you need to do, and then you will need at least eight to ten months of recovery. And after these operations, I can't guarantee that you will be able to return to your peak."

Ewing was startled and turned a little pale.

In fact, Chen Yu also deliberately exaggerated the surgical process.

But in Chen Yu's view, this is actually the best choice for Ewing.

For example, Ewing now may only have [-]% of his peak performance.

After undergoing a bunch of surgeries, Chen Yu might be able to restore him to [-]% to [-]% of his strength.

When performing surgery on Olajuwon, Chen Yu did not dare to say that it would restore him to full strength. After all, at this age, no matter how healthy he was, his physical ability had declined significantly.

Then there is the huge pain and suffering and the long recovery period.

It's really better than conservative treatment.

With some recovery effects, targeted training, and body maintenance, he should be able to recover [-]% of his skills and finish the last two seasons in good health. This is actually a better choice.

Ewing was so confused that he looked at Chen Yu for a while: "Chen, we are friends, and I believe in you. Tell me, what should I choose?"

Chen Yu said: "I said conservative treatment, Patrick, believe me, this is the best choice for you."

Ewing sighed and smiled bitterly: "Okay, I'll do as you say."

In fact, he himself felt that it was not worth it to undergo so many surgeries at the end of his career.

Chen Yu nodded: "Then I will arrange for you to be admitted to the hospital."

Ewing looked back at Falcao.

Falcao nodded slightly, obviously he also felt that conservative treatment was a better choice.

At the end of my career, it is indeed risky to undergo such a lot of surgeries.

Chen Yu was playing with the hospitalization order and was about to call someone to arrange for Ewing to be hospitalized. Ewing suddenly asked: "Chen, am I choosing conservative treatment and will continue to receive your rehabilitation treatment."

Chen Yu nodded.

Since you choose conservative treatment, the key is to take care of yourself.

Not only do you need to take care of them during the offseason, but you also need to take care of them during the season.

After thinking about it, Chen Yu said: "I know what you are worried about. After the new season starts, I can help you make some training plans. If you have time, you can also come to Phoenix and continue to do some maintenance treatments, which should ensure your condition. .”

It is estimated that Ewing is worried that he will not be able to receive conservative treatment in other teams in the new season.

But there is nothing that can be done. What Chen Yu can do is to formulate some targeted training plans.

In fact, scientific training is also very useful, especially for maintaining physical condition.

Ewing understood, gritted his teeth and said, "Would it be better if I came to the Sunshine?"

Before coming here, Ewing thought that after the surgery, he could play how he wanted to play in the new season.

Who knew that Chen Yu would suggest conservative treatment.

Since conservative treatment is required, the best option is to come to the Suns and receive treatment from Chen Yu throughout the season.

"Ugh?"

Chen Yu was also stunned.

Come to the sun?

Everyone wants to come to the sun no matter what.

American Stadium.

Brian looked at Chen Yu steadily: "In other words, Patrick wants to come to the Suns?"

Chen Yu nodded: "His condition is more suitable for conservative treatment. That's what I suggested. Then he wanted to go to the sun. What, you don't want it?"

Brian shook his head quickly.

Ewing.

Although the current Ewing cannot be viewed in terms of his past glory, he is still Ewing after all.

"Compared to the inside, I actually want to strengthen the outside."    The Suns' substitute lineup, especially the outside, is actually terrible.

"Besides, I feel that having Olajuwon is enough. If we add Ewing to the lineup, will our lineup be too old?" Bryan is still a little worried.

Two old guys close to 40 years old.

Or against serious insiders.

As the lineup ages, the risk of injuries increases.

Most importantly, Brian doesn't know how successful Ewing still is.

Although he played well with the SuperSonics last season, he is one year older after all.

Chen Yu shrugged: "It's up to you. Anyway, I've already told you what I said, and the signing of the team should have nothing to do with me."

That's good, everyone comes to ask for their opinions.

Brian scratched his head in distress and sighed, "Okay, let's discuss it further."

The most important thing is how to sign, and whether Ewing is willing to accept a low salary.

Brian didn't dwell too much on it.

This is Ewing after all, and an Ewing who is willing to accept the mid-level exception.

With Falcao's efforts, they went both ways, and at the end of July, the contract was signed.

Ewing officially joined the Suns.

On the basketball court at the clinic's rehabilitation center, Hardaway dribbled the ball around obstacles, changed direction, and completed the final layup.

"Anfernee, take a rest."

Nelson blew the whistle and stopped Hardaway.

Astor, who was standing on the sidelines with a bottle of energy drink in his arms, rushed up and handed over the water.

The old Harland is still recovering from his injury, and Astor is left alone. He has been hanging out on the basketball court these days, becoming Hardaway's little follower.

Nelson came to the sidelines, where Chen Yu was looking through the medical records and thinking about surgical ideas.

"Anfernee is in good condition." Nelson sat down next to Chen Yu.

During the offseason, Nelson took his family to Europe for a skiing vacation before returning to the United States in August.

Here, Hardaway and Ronaldo were ready to start the next step of the rehabilitation plan. Chen Yu was too busy by himself, so he invited Nelson over.

Chen Yu trusted his professionalism.

Chen Yuxin said that she was sure that all her recovery effects were not in vain.

Nelson chatted: "By the way, did you watch yesterday's TNT program? Charles' big mouth called us a team of old, weak, sick and disabled."

"Old, weak, sick and disabled?"

Chen Yu was stunned and asked what he meant.

Or because of Ewing's joining.

Ewing was also a superstar at the end of his career. This offseason, his attention is not as high as that of current superstars like Webber, but it is definitely not low.

Ewing felt that the SuperSonics lineup was not good and would not make the playoffs, which was a waste of his time. The Sonics also felt that he was old, overpaid, incompetent, and not in good shape. They had already made it clear that they would not renew his contract.

So there are still many media discussing where Ewing's next home will be.

Or will he retire directly?

After all, not many players from his generation are still playing.

So when Ewing chose to sign with the Suns, it sparked a lot of discussion.

No one said anything about stars like Ewing and Olajuwon joining the team to keep warm.

We are all a group of old guys who are about to retire, how can we call them a group?

On the contrary, it caused a lot of ridicule.

Barkley, who went to work as a commentator on TNT TV station, made fun of the current Suns in a program the day before yesterday as a team of old, weak and disabled.

"He seems to be right." Chen Yu thought about it carefully and found that Buckley seemed to be right.

Bryan's operation this season is to clean up the interior, give Olajuwon and Einstein positions, and then retain as much as possible the lineup from last season.

He wanted to make reinforcements, but his salary was locked and he had no good options at all.

At the center position, Bryan retained the young and cheap Tsakalidis.

Dudley, Daniel Santiago were all cleared.

At the fourth position, Robinson and Gugliotta will stay, and Elton Ford, the second-round pick selected in this year's draft, will most likely stay.

On the forward line, Marion and Rodney Rogers all remain.

Mario Eli, who originally planned to retire after last season, was retained by Brian and signed a one-year extension.

The same is true for the second position. In addition to Hardaway, veteran Vinnie DeNagro, who was traded from the Warriors last season, has also been retained.

In addition to the confirmed Kidd and Tony Delk at the No. 13 position, the list that can be confirmed now is these [-] people.

Among them, there are 35 people over 5 years old.

Not counting rookie Elton Ford, the average age of the Suns' players is an astonishing 31.4 years old. ,

And except for a few young people like Marion, almost everyone suffered serious injuries.

This is not the old, weak, sick or disabled, what is it?

"As old as you are, let's get old. I think we have a lot of hope next season."

Chen Yu looked at Hardaway, who was teaching Astor how to dribble. It depends on him how far the solar energy can go.

As Jordan's successor who is about to be fully healthy and still at the peak of his career, Chen Yu is really looking forward to what kind of performance he can perform.
