One Guard

Chapter 892



Chapter 882 : Promise to Cuban

Regardless of what the outside world thinks about Yiyang only reaching a one-year contract with the Mavericks, Yiyang still bid farewell to his family in reluctance and miss, and began his new year’s campaign.

At this time, Yiyang was already the father of two children. As he and Vignali imagined, the second one was a girl.

The child inherited Vignali’s blond hair and delicate features, but also had some oriental characteristics. The two mixed babies are very good-looking. People even say that if Yiyang’s two children don’t play basketball in the future, they will definitely become famous figures in the entertainment circle.

But Yiyang has no way to stay with his wife and newborn daughter. At the beginning of the new season, Yiyang has turned back to that workaholic.

This season is still not easy for Yiyang. In addition to the rise of many Eastern teams, Yiyang also suffered the first major injury of his career.

The physical condition of a professional player will decline day by day from the age of 30, and Yiyang deeply feels this change. In January, during a game between the Mavericks and the 76ers, the tired Yiyang accidentally tore the anterior ligament of his left knee when he landed on a layup. When Yiyang fell, Mike Brin explained the game. Did not even react. Because Yiyang has never suffered a major injury in the past ten years.

People thought that Yiyang would come back after a few minutes of rest, and people thought that Yiyang would return to play after a maximum of three days of rest. But the official result of the Mavericks is that Yiyang will miss at least three months and will be reimbursed during the regular season!

The whole world exploded! A player who has been fighting on the court for ten years, suddenly suffered a major injury! All the Mavericks fans and Yiyang fans were in panic. Yiyang missed all the regular seasons and may even miss the first round of the series. So where will the Dallas Mavericks go?

The hospital where Yiyang is located is surrounded by a large number of reporters every day. Anyone who enters and exits from the Yiyang ward is bound to be overwhelmed by crowds.

The biggest question for everyone now is: After Yiyang comes back, how much can he show?

There are countless superstars plagued by major injuries, and names such as Greg Oden and Brandon Roy are shuddering at the mention of them. A torn ligament on the front of the knee is not an ordinary injury. After Yiyang recovers, can he rule the alliance? Can you still lead the Mavericks to a championship?

But in Yiyang’s ward, Vignali took care of him day and night, and never asked more questions. Isn’t there a saying that says so? Others only care about whether you win or not, but I care about whether you are tired or not.

“You are not yet 30 years old, just give me this one.” When Cuban came to visit Yiyang, he could see that the boss was heartbroken.

“This is something that can’t be helped. Maybe my luck has run out in the past ten years.” Yiyang spread his hands, still smiling. For this injury, Yiyang is actually quite optimistic. He firmly believes that after he comes back, he can still come up with his previous state, he will not be bound by injuries, nor will he become afraid of confrontation because of injuries.

The reason is simple. After other players are injured, what needs to be considered is their career for more than ten years. But Yiyang, he only needs to consider this season!

“Mark, there is something I want to discuss with you.”

When Cuban looked at Yiyang, he knew what was going on. But when Yiyang really wanted to tell him, he was not mentally prepared.

“I know what you are going to say, but don’t say it first. You are only 30 years old. Also, if Dirk is here, he will certainly not allow you to retire! He entered the league so many years earlier than you, but only ahead of you Retiring one year early, this is not in line with the norm at all!” Cuban’s attitude has not changed, he hopes Yiyang can continue to play for the Mavericks.

Even if you give him 200 million, 300 million, 1 billion! Cuban is willing!

“I feel sick, Mark.”

What Cuban didn’t expect was that Yiyang actually said such a sentence.

“I have not rested for almost ten consecutive years and have been playing. And, as the fame followed, I had no personal life to speak of. My words, deeds, and actions were all put under the microscope. Look and see, it has become a conversation in the streets. Even my family is implicated, and everything about me will be made public. You can also see that except for this room, this hospital is full of reporters. Vigna Even if Li just went out to buy something, he would be surrounded by reporters. You know what, Mark, I think I am like a fish kept in a glass fish bowl. There is no freedom for people to watch.”

Upon hearing this, Cuban said nothing. Yes, a superstar like him, no, the pressure of a superstar among the superstars is beyond his imagination.

“I never accompany my son on his birthday, because his birthday is always during the playoffs. My honeymoon with Vignali is only one week, and I can only contact him by phone when my mother is sick and hospitalized. It was Vignelli who exchanged my own hard work for my willfulness in 2016. I willfully fight on the court, and willfully spend all of my time on basketball. When I got married that year, I promised Vigor. Nari’s father, I said that after getting married, I will put my family first. But to be honest, I broke my promise. But now, I want to make up for it. If what I need most now is family. So, I have made up my mind. I won’t tell you again that I haven’t considered how long I’ll be playing. What I want to tell you is. Choose a day and let’s make it public!”

“Is there really no room for recovery?” Cuban asked for the last time.

“Don’t worry, Mark. This season, I will try my best to bring you the O’Brien Cup!” Yiyang replied firmly.

Five days later, the Dallas Mavericks officially held a large press conference in the media reception room of the American Route Center Arena. People thought that the Mavericks would announce the latest situation of Yiyang’s injury, but Mark Cuban took a heavy tone to blow up the entire basketball world.

“Yiyang decided to officially retire after this season.”

There was a mess underneath, but Cuban didn’t want to answer any questions at all. This fat boss who smiles on weekdays has ruddy eyes in front of reporters from all over the world today.

Yiyang announced that it would officially retire, and this news has become a hot topic all over the world. LeBron James is also helping the giants in Los Angeles to rejuvenate, and Rose, who is more seriously injured than Yiyang, also serves as a substitute for the Mavericks. Wade, who was once Yiyang’s right-hand man, retired only this year, and Nowitzki left the U.S. Route Center Arena for less than half a year.

At this moment, Yiyang suddenly announced his retirement. People have speculated that it must be because of the injury this time, which is not optimistic. Who is Yiyang? It was a paranoid who was even more paranoid than Kobe. This guy’s desire for victory is greater than anything else! A person with such a strong self-esteem would certainly not be able to accept his sinking. Wade and Rose may be able to accept their new positioning after being injured, but Yiyang, the superstar who has ruled the league for the past seven years, can never compromise.

The wild speculation and irresponsible reports of the media have made such claims widely circulated. Yiyang is dead, an era is over, and the Mavericks are destined to be unable to establish a second dynasty.

But in addition to cynicism, there were also many fans’ actions that moved Yiyang very much. The number of comments on Yiyang’s official Twitter and Mavericks homepage has skyrocketed, and even caused the server to be paralyzed at one time. The content of the fans’ messages can be summed up in one sentence: “Yiyang, don’t go.”

In addition, there are many Mavericks fans who voluntarily organize street parades, hoping that Yiyang can stay and continue to fight.

In the parade for a professional athlete, Yiyang’s influence is so great that even Jordan’s back then is slightly inferior!

Seeing these actions of the fans, Yiyang really felt a little softened. But looking at the growing children, the aging mother and the exhausted wife, Yiyang still made up his mind. A home cannot be supported by women alone.

As for the rumors, Yiyang did not show up to answer at all. At this time, Yiyang has already started to do some restorative training. And he promised to take the championship back to Dallas, not just to talk about it. This guy Yiyang has always done what he said!

In the end, the Mavericks, under the leadership of Mitchell, Kuzma and Hayward, still got 60 wins and entered the playoffs as second in the Western Conference. The Golden State Warriors finally had the opportunity to taste the first taste.

At this time, the reporters have taken pictures of Yiyang training on the training ground. But the specific status is not clear to people.

In the first game of the series, facing the rising Phoenix Suns, the Mavericks fought hard for 6 games before finally qualifying. Ayton and Devin Booker brought too much trouble to the Mavericks. Without Yiyang, the Mavericks seem to lack the absolute dominance of the game. Mudiay and Rose performed well, but these two guys have not been able to fill the gap left by Yiyang. Looking at the entire alliance, who can replace Yiyang?

After the first round , people are most concerned about Yiyang’s injury. After all, in the second round of the game against the Los Angeles Lakers led by LeBron James, if there is no Yiyang, the Mavericks may be very difficult to play.

In the first game of the series, Yiyang finally returned to the sidelines and warmed up with his teammates, but never played from the beginning to the end, but kept watching silently from the sidelines.

In this game, Lonzo Ball, who was carefully trained by the Lakers, locked the Mavericks’ guard line. This guy is now known as the best defensive position in the league after Yiyang! Brandon Ingram used 8 three-pointers to turn the tide on the offensive end. He has become more and more like Durant! Finally, coupled with LeBron’s violent impact, the Lakers defeated the Dallas Mavericks 108 to 100! It seems that the once invincible Mavericks and Yiyang seem to be falling off the altar!

After the game, the reporters ignored Ball, Ingram or even James. Instead, they all rushed to Yiyang and asked him what he thought of the game.

Yiyang, who returned to people’s field of vision after three and a half months, still looked majestic, and every word he said seemed beyond doubt.

Yiyang scratched his head and said, “I repeat, our goal this year is the O’Brien Cup!”

“Then next game, will you come back?” The reporter asked anxiously. If Yiyang really retires, then his game will be one less game.

“Next game,” Yiyang looked at the camera and paused, “I will score at least 40 points on Lonzo Ball.”

Amidst the reporters’ surprised eyes and noisy shouts, Yiyang turned and walked into the dressing room. (https:)
