The news that Qin Yue would miss the entire 08/09 season due to injury had just been announced, and the whole basketball world immediately turned into chaos.
"I know it's hard to bear. Back then, I felt like a fan; I couldn't do anything. I could only watch from the sidelines and cheer with everyone else." The old GOAT concerned himself with his heir apparent at the first instance, saying, "I didn't want to be disturbed by anyone, didn't want the phone to ring, didn't want to watch TV, didn't want to listen to music. I just needed the purest darkness at that time."
After a pause, with his ribs still aching, the old GOAT added, "But I believe you will get through it just like I did. Trust me, once you survive this darkness, nothing can ever bind you again."
Qin Yue was undoubtedly grateful for the old GOAT's concern.
But unlike Jordan back then...
The naturally more optimistic Qin Yue didn't feel the darkness that Jordan mentioned.
