On January 12, Beijing time, Blazers player Little updated the social media in response to his fish jump to grab the ball and injure Irving. He stressed that he would not deliberately hurt anyone, and if he did it again, he would choose to do so.
"I would never intentionally hurt anyone, and I have the utmost respect for Carey (Owen)!" Little writes, "But if you think it's a bad move, it means you're delusional, and I'll do it again." I don't care what you say. ”
Little retweeted remarks about the move in Irving's interview. At the time, Owen pointed out that this action was completely unnecessary. Owen said: "He's not a dirty player, but that move was a bit reckless and completely unnecessary. I may have fractured my ankle or suffered some more serious injuries because of this action. This kind of action should not exist in our game, I understand Little is positive, but this action is completely avoidable. ”
Clearly, Little doesn't agree with Owen, he thinks he's on the ball, and he'll do it the next time something like that happens.
According to the latest injury released by the Nets, Irving sprained his left ankle and played against the Bulls. Previously, Irving had said that he could play against the Bulls, but the Nets report showed that the team was still cautious, and Whether Irving could play should not be decided until before the game.
