The logo of the NBA tough guy: Kobe s Achilles tendon, Rose s knees, Green s heart

In the NBA arena, players try their best to win, but injuries are like ruthless reefs, which may shatter their dreams at any time. The scars left by injuries have become the fearless medals of the players, recording their bloody and tears in their struggle against injuries, and witnessing their persistence and love for basketball.

1. Ross' knee scar is shocking

Relying on his amazing speed and explosive power, Ross beat James, Kobe and other superstars in 2011, becoming the youngest regular season MVP in NBA history. However, fate seems to be playing a cruel joke on the talented player. His knee became a serious injury area, and four cruciate ligament injuries caused his career to fall to a low point. Every knee injury is accompanied by a long period of recovery and endless psychological suffering. Especially the long scar on his left knee seemed to tell Rose's past glory and loss.

2. Jeff Green's chest scar is too scary

Unlike Rose's knee scar, Jeff Green's scar is located on his chest, which is a witness to a major test in his life. As Durant's No. 5 show in the same class, Green should have a bright future. However, during the Celtics, he was diagnosed with a heart problem and had to rest for a season and undergo surgery. During that five-hour operation, Green's chest was cut 30 cm open and his heart stopped beating for 75 minutes. From Green's scar in the picture, we can see how close he was to "Death" at that time.

3. Kobe's Achilles tendon scar is 30CM

Kobe, a legendary star in the NBA, has not escaped the attack of injuries in his brilliant career. In 2013, Kobe suffered a serious Achilles tendon injury, which was undoubtedly a devastating blow to a player who relies on physical fitness and athleticism. After the operation, a 30-centimeter scar was left on his Achilles tendon, which became a symbol of the turning point of Kobe's career. Since then, Kobe's form has begun to decline, his dominance has gradually weakened, and the Lakers have also become from a contender for the championship to an ordinary team.

4. Pierce was stabbed 11 times

Compared with the scars left by Ross, Green and Kobe by the surgery, Pierce's scars have a different story. During a nightclub conflict, Pierce was unfortunately stabbed 11 times by a gangster. It was an extremely dangerous accident, but Pierce returned to the arena after a difficult recovery period with his strong physical fitness and tenacious will, without having much impact on his career.

5. James' deformed toes

As we all know, James has superhuman physical fitness, has almost never suffered major injuries in his 22-year career, and his attendance rate is firmly at the forefront. But what is rarely known is that James was in a difficult family when he was young and often wore unfit sneakers to practice hard, which led to severe deformity in his toes and could only be repaired through surgery. But in order not to affect the game, James has not dealt with it yet.
