The accident that Gan Guoyang had on his rest day made everyone from top to bottom of the Trail Blazers calm down. Fortunately, after returning to Portland immediately for examination, Gan Guoyang's arm was only slightly strained, and it was not serious. He would recover after a few days of rest.

This unpredictable disaster was that Gan Guoyang would go around whenever he saw something related to rugby in the future; the second was that he once again had some doubts about the Trail Blazers team doctor, because before this strain, Gan Guoyang's private doctor Shui Miao once told Gan Guoyang that his triceps had the possibility of straining, and the Trail Blazers team doctor did not remind Gan Guoyang, because they felt that Gan Guoyang had no problem with his arm.

This made Gan Guoyang worry about whether the Trail Blazers' team doctor's injury halo would start to shine on his career. To be on the safe side, Gan Guoyang went to Shui Miao's clinic after returning to Portland and did some more detailed examinations.

The result of the examination is neither good nor bad. The bad is because Shui Miao is worried that Gan Guoyang's arm may suffer from fatigue damage. This is a hidden danger left by Gan Guoyang's full strength at the basket since high school. It is said that it is not bad because this injury is not as complicated as a knee injury or back injury. Shui Miao also thought that this was a minor injury after seeing Gan Guoyang's strain. Basically, it would be almost done after one or two games.

"You must be careful in the future and don't run around. You are the treasure of your team now. I'll see your boss will be sad when you hit him." Shui Miao said to Gan Guoyang after helping Gan Guoyang to check.

"I'm running around everywhere! I just went back to school to watch a game, but I was smashed! I never want to see football again in my life... I don't want to see things in the shape of olives!" Gan Guoyang is still quite depressed so far. The regular season is approaching the end stage. The Blazers' goal is to keep the first place in the West. The Lakers are following very closely, and if they are not the first place, they will be snatched away by the Lakers.

"Who knows you, you rush around every day on the basketball court and fight every day. You're injured after playing football with your hands. If you were a rugby player, you wouldn't be injured every day."

"Hehe, as long as the old cat is my personal doctor, I will not be injured every day."

“………If you want to play rugby, I won’t be your personal doctor, such a savage sports…”

"Yes, as long as I play basketball, you will be my personal doctor!" Gan Guoyang always likes to "teach" her if he is with Shui Miao for no reason.

In Gan Guoyang's heart, Shui Miao is like one of his sisters and provides him with health protection at any time, and also like a little girl, who is not young, but she is still very simple.

"In the future, your girlfriend comes out to be a doctor, but I can't be your personal doctor anymore. Sports medicine at Gonzaga University is also very good, so there is no need to be a bad one in Ohio." Shui Miao said with a slanting glance at Gan Guoyang.

After hearing Shui Miao's words, Gan Guoyang also coughed dryly. He also knew that Wang Fuxi insisted on studying medicine at that time. One of the reasons he said was that he had to be a private doctor of Gan Guoyang, especially after she knew that Gan Guoyang's current private doctor was an older Chinese beauty.

Seeing Gan Guoyang stop talking for a moment, Shui Miao's eyes also dimmed a little.

Shui Miao's emotions towards Gan Guoyang are very complicated. The two are about ten years apart. Sometimes Gan Guoyang can deliberately call her "auntie" even if he is a little thick-skinned. Therefore, it is completely impossible to have a relationship with him. It is contrary to morality in Shui Miao's opinion. Although the United States is a very open country, Shui Miao was born in a conservative Chinese family, and this influence is deeply rooted.

Not to mention that there is also a very stable Wang Fuxizai in Gan Guoyang who is very compatible with Gan Guoyang. She is younger than Shui Miao, more beautiful, and she is also a very strong girl.

All of this made Shui Miao lose his thoughts about Gan Guoyang early on, but if Shui Miao was not moved by Gan Guoyang at all, even Shui Miao himself felt that he was deceiving himself.

Conservative women like Shui Miao, who are rare in the United States, are always guarding against men everywhere, but they are not guarding against Gan Guoyang from the beginning. As a result, the strong masculine charm exudes from Gan Guoyang will naturally attract older young women like Shui Miao who have not experienced any love.

Moreover, putting aside his age, Gan Guoyang meets Shui Miao's standards for choosing a mate. In addition to material superiority, Gan Guoyang's strong sense of responsibility and clean off-site life all made Shui Miao silently give Gan Guoyang thirty-two praises in his heart.

Although Shui Miao doesn't like basketball, she can also read the news. The romantic affairs of those stars are often the favorite materials of newspapers and media. However, as one of the most concerned stars in the league, Gan Guoyang is quite clean in this regard.

In fact, in Portland, there are countless girls who want to climb onto Gan Guoyang's bed after the competition every day, but Gan Guoyang can survive alone, which also makes Shui Miao admire his character very much.

Of course, Shui Miao didn't know that the phone number that Wang Fuxi had to come every night and the detective-like sensitivity were the key to Gan Guoyang's fear of easily crossing the thunder pool; even if he went to play basketball in another place, Wang Fuxi would have to call the hotel room in advance and check Gan Guoyang's whereabouts from time to time. Gan Guoyang was too lazy to play guerrilla warfare and psychological warfare, so he just acted obediently. After all, playing basketball is still very tiring.

Shui Miao looked at Gan Guoyang who was sitting on the chair in a daze. His tall body curled up on the lounge chair, looking particularly quiet.

"Forrest Gump, you have to learn to protect your body."

"I will still let you be my personal doctor!" Gan Guoyang suddenly said.

"What?"

"I mean, I will continue to let you be my personal doctor, you are the best doctor I have ever met."

When Shui Miao heard this, she suddenly felt a little moved. I thought that the two had known each other for five years. They met because of an injury. Five years later, the steady and mature big boy has become a man like a steel, but in front of her, she still often likes to call her old cat like a boy.

"Maybe this is worth it." Shui Miao looked at Gan Guoyang and couldn't help thinking.

"You are really a good doctor. The fees are the lowest I have ever seen. The industry is so conscientious! Okay, I'm leaving, I will recover from my injuries!"

Shui Miao had just made up her mind, and Gan Guoyang immediately broke out with a humble word, almost making Shui Miao die of anger. After Gan Guoyang finished speaking, he had already left her physiotherapy room.

After the diagnosis, Gan Guoyang also went to the hospital's inpatient department to visit Mrs. Ramsey. Mr. Ramsey is now back in normal working tracks, and she has really less time to spend with Mrs. Ramsey.

Seeing Mrs. Ramsey who was still treating her in the hospital bed and had lost all her hair, Gan Guoyang felt a little sad. He thought that Ramsey had to bear how much pain he had to bear.

……………………

The rare holiday in Gan Guoyang was destroyed by accidental injuries, and the pioneers were also destroyed.

After four days of rest, the first opponent of the team was to run to Texas to play the Houston Rockets. It was only twelve days after the last game between the two teams, but the situation was completely different.

Gan Guoyang naturally missed the game, while Olajuwon, who missed the Rockets' starter in the last game, had already recovered from injury. After a while, the Trail Blazers immediately fell behind the Rockets' strength by 80 Kgs, and the gap was a bit big.

The progress of the game also looks similar to the one on the books. Gan Guoyang's absence gave the Rockets free space to play the two towers, especially Ralph Sampson, who was defeated last time. Once Olajuwon was restrained in the three-second zone, the Trail Blazers did not have Gan Guoyang's backcourt rebound protection. Sampson was able to dance in the three-second zone with various scoring methods, easily scoring 32 points and 17 rebounds.

Olajuwon also scored 28 points and 11 rebounds, and the double towers beat the Trail Blazers inside. They also won this key game at home and continued to consolidate their position as second in the Western Conference. (The Lakers are second in the record, but the Lakers and the Trail Blazers are in the same division. According to the rules, the Lakers rank third.)

Since they came to Texas, the Trail Blazers naturally would not leave after a fight. Then they were going to Dallas to fight the Mavericks. Gan Guoyang continued to quit, but this time the Trail Blazers made adjustments.

In the last game, Ramsey sent Jones to replace Gan Guoyang. He hoped that the veteran center would replace Gan Guoyang's function, but the result proved that this was impossible.

So when facing the Mavericks, Ramsey decisively abandoned Jones. If we lose the starting center, we should simply not be the center and go directly to the small lineup. Anyway, the Mavericks are not a strong team in the interior.

At the beginning of the game, the Trail Blazers suddenly fell behind because they were really not used to this style of play. With Gan Guoyang in the defense, they often created traps to drive their opponents into their pockets, and then Gan Guoyang was the one who had a pocket tampered. Bellman's move has become a major weapon for their defense as he trained in the season.

Without Gan Guoyang, the pockets are leaking, and the result of rushing in is being penetrated, so everyone has to do their best to defend themselves and make up for the defense.

There is no Gan Guoyang in the offense, not to mention the strongest internal interest rate offensive point, from point guard to power forward, everyone has to try their best to protect the backcourt rebounds, and the fast break speed has dropped a lot.

So the Trail Blazers were 10 points behind the Mavericks at halftime, and it was only when Van derwich broke out in the second half of the second quarter that helped the team come back.

In the second half, the Trail Blazers' offense and defense were still not improving overall, but Drexler ushered in a big explosion.

Score, rebounds, and assists, Drexler began to become omnipotent. Drexler's condition was also ups and downs due to injuries some time ago, which meant that the glider took off completely.

Mark Aquili and Blackman still performed well, but were also overshadowed by Drexler's 41 points, 15 assists, 8 rebounds and 3 steals. Especially at the critical moment of the fourth quarter, he hit a key free throw, widening the score to three-pointers, helping the Trail Blazers narrowly defeat the Mavericks with one point of 122:121, and are the well-deserved MVPs in the game.
