On the second day of the play-offs, a total of three games have been completed so far, namely the Lakers defeated the Pelicans to advance to seventh in the West, and will next face the Nuggets who are second in the West, the 76ers defeated the Heat to advance to the seventh place in the East, and then will face the Knicks, who are second in the East, and the Kings beat the Warriors to get the chance to advance, and then will fight with the Pelicans, who lost in the first round of the play-offs, for the last spot selected.
It has to be said that the appearance of the play-offs made the end of the regular season more exciting, but it also caused many players to be injured because of its excessive intensity. In just three games, two stars have been injured. First, Zion was diagnosed with a hamstring injury in his left leg and missed at least one series (more than two weeks), which means that Zion's season is over.
The position of the hamstrings is in the back of the thigh chain, and almost all of us use the hamstrings when walking, running, jumping, and squatting in our daily life, and this part of the muscle group is even regarded as one of the most important muscle groups in basketball people. It will play a role in all aspects such as confrontation, stance, breakthrough, jump, etc., and injuries here will greatly affect sports performance.
Hamstring injuries can be recuperated in a similar way to hamstring straines, with as much rest or recuperation as possible, and it is best to be able to use crutches to share the pressure on the legs if necessary. As one of the largest and most commonly used muscle groups in the body, the muscle group here must be paid attention to, so Brother B recognized Fat Tiger's withdrawal and the announcement of season reimbursement.
In addition to the Fat Tiger, Heat star Jimmy Butler was also injured. The low-key star, who was seen as a regular season playoff and exploded in the playoffs to compete for the league's first place in the playoffs, fell in the first round of the play-offs. In the first quarter of the game, Butler went to the ground with a knee injury on an under-the-basket offense, and then returned to the game with an injury.
Coach Spo said that the more he entered the second half, the more serious the impact of Butler's injury on him. Throughout the game, Butler scored 19 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 steals on 5-of-18 shooting. Maybe this year's Black Eight Miracle will be difficult to repeat, and even the Heat may be out of the play-offs or the first round, but it doesn't matter, next year, let's see you again.
