Can Yao Ming play?

The team doctor of the rocket knows best, you give him a **!

Today is the first day of the Chinese Lunar New Year in US time, and at the beginning of the NBA season, when arranging the schedule, the Rockets were specially chosen to play against the Heat today, and the Spring Festival version of "Yao Shark Matchup" was broadcast live in the United States. Who knows that people are not as good as heaven, Yao Ming's big toe surgery made the NBA's arrangement a pity.

Yao Ming is expected to return this week, and blood tests show that Yao Ming has no complications after big toe surgery, and the Rockets' plan is to get him back this Thursday, although ultimately it will depend on Yao's condition these days. In recent days, Yao Ming has been able to train with the team.

Many fans still hope to see Yao Ming back on the day of the Chinese New Year, but Van Gundy made it clear before the game that Yao Ming will not be available today. Regarding the inability of the "Yao Shark Showdown" to be staged, Van Gundy could only say: "The schedule is not something I can decide, and I can't help it." ”

Van Gundy declined to give a clear date for Yao's return, with the only certainty being that Yao will travel with the team tomorrow, while Maddie affirmed that Yao will be back on the pitch within a week.

Against the Black Bears this week, Yao Ming is very likely to play, if he doesn't play, then he will definitely play in the next game.

Although the Rockets lost 95-101 at home to the Heat today, the news came out after the game that was encouraging. Head coach Van Gundy was interviewed by reporters, and he made it clear that Yao Ming will go to Memphis with the team!

In today's game, due to Yao Ming's absence, the Rockets' interior line could only be supported by the elderly Mutombo, and as a result, he was humiliated by the "big shark" O'Neal, allowing the latter to dunk the basket repeatedly on his head, scoring 24 points and 14 rebounds. The United States has lamented the failure of the "Yao Shark Showdown", and NBA officials also believe that the Yao Mai combination failed to compete with the Ovie combination, which is not fair to the Rockets. The Rockets will next take on the Grizzlies on the road, and if Yao Ming continues to be sidelined, their interior line will inevitably be beaten into a sieve by the brave Gasol.

But in the face of reporters' questions, Fan Shuai played Tai Chi pushing, he said: "I haven't thought about what will happen tomorrow at all!" ”

Yao Ming has missed 21 consecutive games since undergoing surgery on his big toe on December 19 last year, and the exact timing of his return to the court has been watched by hundreds of millions of fans. In previous reports, Yao Ming himself has publicly stated that he will make a comeback this week. Although the world-renowned "Yao Shark Showdown" failed to be staged as expected, the schedule for Yao Ming's comeback is getting closer and closer.

Although Fan Shuai refused to pack tickets for Yao Ming's comeback, judging from Yao Ming's recent training recovery, if there is no accident, he will come back tomorrow, the third day of the Lunar New Year, to challenge Gasol away!

Today's TV broadcast, Brother Yao can play.

Okay, didn't you watch TV, brother?
