Chapter 5 Ligament tear
This is the first time for Chen Yu to watch the game up close.

Sitting at the top of the stands, you can have an overview of the whole situation.

But sitting on the sidelines is a completely different feeling.

Especially when he came up, the tall Mike Miller shot a corner three-pointer three meters away in front of Chen Yu. The immersion was a completely different experience.

It's a pity that it didn't go in.

It stands to reason that today is the Heat's opening game. After a long offseason, the players need more time to get into shape. However, when it comes to fighting, the Heat are the first to get into shape.

Beatle Tim Hardaway faced short-term leader Darrell Armstrong. Although he lost the two-way dribble that he is famous for, a simple change of focus still made him a solid mid-range shot.

Chen Yu couldn't help but look at him twice.

This guy has the same surname as the famous Hardaway who is now in the Suns, but his reputation is not bad at all. His two-way change is extraordinary, but even Magic Johnson praised him, saying that he is the best player in the league. Top ball handler.

In his rookie season, he won the Rookie of the Year award. Starting from the second season of his career, he posted luxurious statistics of 20 plus 10, firmly establishing himself as the league's top point guard.

Unfortunately, at the peak of his career, he suffered his first major injury in his career, tearing the cruciate ligament in his left knee.

The season was reimbursed and he came back again. Although he still produced top statistics of 20.1 points and 9.3 assists, he was invincible and his iconic two-way dribble was gone.

He changed his style of play and, under the guidance of Nelson, focused on shooting three-pointers.

In the 9293 season, he averaged only 4.7 three-pointers per game. In his first season back on the court, his average three-pointers per game soared to 7.2!
Now, his breakthrough is slower, but his shooting is becoming more and more accurate.

Chen Yu's gaze also penetrated Hardaway's left knee and saw the shocking left knee.

Chen Yu didn't know what grade of tear Hardaway suffered at the time, but a torn cruciate ligament often leads to a torn collateral ligament and meniscus. To put it bluntly, it's an injury.

Surgical repair is not only difficult, but the most important thing is that after repair, it is difficult to restore the ligament to its previous strength.

The regenerative ability of ligaments is inherently poor. After tearing, the already sparse capillary structure inside is destroyed, resulting in an even worse blood supply capacity of the ligaments.

Coupled with the scar tissue produced after repair and the retraction of the ligament after tearing, even if it looks like a perfect repair, the strength of the ligament will not be as good as before.

Decline in athletic ability is an inevitable result.

Hardaway's left knee was in such a situation. Chen Yu could clearly see that the repaired ligament became messy due to scar tissue.

There are also a large number of shrunken and broken capillaries inside.

There are also injuries to the ligaments and menisci around the knee, as well as hyperplastic tissue and fluid accumulation.

If a healthy knee is like a clean house, then Hardaway's knee is like a house that has been visited by thieves and turned upside down.

Chen Yu crossed his arms and couldn't help but start to think about whether there was a way to repair such damage if it were him.

After a while, Chen Yu felt that there should be no problem.

It's not because his surgical skills are higher.

They are all qualified doctors, and the surgical skills of Chen Yu and top experts are actually about the same.

The only advantage is actually the all-seeing eye.

No matter how skilled the doctor is, can he use CT to examine every subtle injury and then perform targeted treatment?
Certainly not.

But Chen Yu, who has the all-seeing eye, will do.

As far as his eyes could see, Chen Yu could see clearly any tear, no matter how small it was, and then find a way to repair it.

To assist with targeted postoperative rehabilitation, Chen Yu has read some papers and studies have proven that during the rehabilitation process, targeted exercise can help heal the tissue after ligament regeneration, load the original tissue longitudinally, and allow the tissue's mechanical Performance is optimized to preserve maximum athletic ability.

Not to mention, he also has bonuses for different levels of healing effects.

It's a pity that Hardaway's knee has already become like this, and it will probably be very difficult to completely repair it.

Thinking randomly, the first quarter of the game is over.

It was as if the Magic couldn't play ball anymore, and they played like a mess.Only scored 14 points in a single quarter.

Super rookie Tracy McGrady, who has high hopes from the Magic management, only made 8 of 3 shots and scored 7 points. This alone accounted for half of the team's points.

Five starts, two scored zero points.

On the other hand, the Heat's offensive efficiency is frightening. They made 16 of 13 shots in a single quarter, with a shooting percentage of as high as [-]%.

Hardaway scored 12 points alone, leading the team to score 37 points in a single quarter.

In the first quarter alone, a 23-point lead was established.

It is no exaggeration to say that this game is gone.

Rivers stood on the sidelines with his arms folded, his expression extremely serious.

The Heat are a strong team in the Eastern Conference, there is no doubt about it.

But Rivers didn't expect that the gap between the two teams would be so big.

Although there are back-to-back home and away games, the performance is not so bad.

He couldn't help but turn his head and look at Hill in the corner of the bench.

If Hill was present, the scene wouldn't be so ugly.

Mike Miller is still too young to take on the important role for the time being.

But it was already determined to rest, so what could Rivers do? The only thing he could do was to drag McGrady and tell him to play more rationally.

McGrady's eyes were full of helplessness. Although he got his wish and signed a maximum-salary contract, he was only in his fourth year in the league after all.

He also had a headache facing Eddie Jones, an All-Star guard who could defend, attack, and have comprehensive skills.

In the second quarter, the Magic regained some form, but they were only tied with the Heat. At halftime, there was still a huge 24-point gap.

After the players from both sides left the field, Ron Karp, who was sitting in the front row, followed the players and hurried into the tunnel.

Chen Yu wanted to say hello, but he stretched out his hand, and Garp had already walked past quickly.

This time is actually the busiest time for team doctors.

Some players may feel uncomfortable after playing half the game. They need to take advantage of the intermission to adjust as soon as possible and strive to maintain the same state in the second half.

Chen Yu was filled with helplessness and a feeling of powerlessness that he had no ability but had nowhere to use it.

"If not, how about going to another professional league?"

Chen Yu crossed his arms and thought.

Miami isn't just the Heat.

Miami is a famous sports city in the United States. The four major sports leagues have teams in Miami.

Not to mention the Heat in basketball, the Miami Dolphins in football are one of the most successful teams in NFL history, having won the Super Bowl twice.

Then there is the Miami Marlins of the Baseball League, which is also a strong team and just won the world championship a few years ago.

Finally, there is the Florida Panthers, a hockey team based in Sunrise, just below Broward County.

Broward County is considered part of the Miami metropolitan area and is only more than 40 kilometers away from downtown Miami.

Chen Yu wants to be a team doctor, but there is no limit to being a team doctor for the basketball team.

Any professional team needs team doctors.
