The Way of the Center

Chapter 420: : The Allure of the O'Brien Cup

A few days ago, when Anjie went to Oklahoma 6 again, this guy was deeply moved. E "small ┡" said Ww%W. Ω1XIAOSHUO. COM Indeed, Anjie has indeed left too many fond memories in the city of Oklahoma. But now, when Anjie left here again by plane, he didn't have the slightest nostalgia in his heart. He hates failure, and he also hates the place where he has failed.

Winning an away game in the playoffs is definitely a very good result. Anjie does not deny that although they lost, the Blazers' situation in the playoffs was not bad.

The reason why he was depressed was not just because the Trail Blazers lost the ball. More, but also because he was prevented from doing nothing by his once good brother Morris!

With 16 points, 11 rebounds, 1 block and 5 assists, it is not easy to find a center in this league that can get this kind of data. But An Jie will not be satisfied with this. Although he scored a double-double, everyone can clearly see how awkward Morris made An Jie play.

For a person who is gradually entering the ranks of first-line stars, such data obviously fails.

"Still thinking about the game just now?" In the dim cabin, Ricard's hoarse voice came into Anjie's ears.

Anjie turned his head, only barely able to see Ricard's outline. Now that most people on the plane have fallen asleep, turning on the lights is obviously not a suitable choice. So An Jie was simply in the dark and started talking with the guides in his basketball career.

"Morris can always kill me."

"It's not Morris, it's your former coach Jeff Van Gundy who bit you to death. I didn't expect it, that sly bald head." Ricard pursed his dry lips. Today he was yelling from the sidelines. However, his roar can not change the situation of the game.

"Coach Van Gundy? Hmm... he really likes to study video..." An Jie has not forgotten how Van Gundy used him to watch game videos to study his opponents.

"He should have thoroughly studied your offensive habits, plus the guy who is the bull who knows you well enough. The two hit it off, so the scene of tonight was born." Ricard, like a detective, will The reasons for Anjie's failure were analyzed one by one.

"My offensive habits?" An Jie stretched out his hands in confusion. Sometimes, in some situations, what the player should do next is more of a conditioned reflex rather than a subtle calculation of the brain. For example, An Jie would choose to suddenly turn around and break through after encountering an opponent who could not advance. This is An Jie's habit, but he didn't know it. Because in his opinion, this is a natural thing.

"I don't know what offensive habits I have, and I like to shoot with my right hand? I have overcome this soon."

"Go to bed now, Ann, tomorrow we have early training. Hey, I will help you solve these problems, understand? Now, I want you to sleep at ease." Ricard tapped Anjie's shoulder. , He got up and returned to his seat. Ricard had already thought of a plan to understand the shackles of Anjie, but it was not the time to talk about it.

An Jie stared out of the airplane window. The night sky outside was so dark that no one could see anything. Slowly, An Jie also felt his eyes become heavy. He changed his sitting position, but fell asleep without knowing it...

...................

"A new generation of Anjie killer!"

"The closest friend, the most terrible enemy!"

"Morris: The real best defensive player!"

Although Morris had only 6 points and 1o rebounds in yesterday's game, through his excellent performance against Anjie on the defensive end, this guy also became the darling of various media headlines overnight.

After all, An Jie played against countless excellent insiders after playing throughout the season. But Morris was the only one who could limit An Jie to such embarrassment.

Think about it, if a well-known guard suddenly limits the hands and feet of Kobe Bryant in the playoffs, then this guy will be as popular as Morris. Although Anjie's historical status and honor are far from being comparable to Kobe, this guy is just like Kobe in the interior, an unstoppable lunatic with an extremely abnormal desire for victory.

Therefore, the playoffs are a stage for making people famous. Every year, there will always be a few guys who are tepid in the regular season, and they will be completely popular in the playoffs. And this year, this lucky guy will undoubtedly become Morris.

Countless fans are marveling at Morris's defense that people imagined. Countless fans are surprised to find that in college, Morris was a main insider on the same level as An Jie. Of course, the various stories between Anjie and Morris also reverberated throughout the United States overnight.

"The Thunder have now found a weapon to limit the security. This weapon is like the Thunder's key to victory, something that other teams don't have. With Morris, they have a way to defeat the Trail Blazers. "There are even some media that have announced the victory of the Thunder in advance.

Morris looked at these reports about himself, feeling both happy and embarrassed. Happily, he has been committed to defense and rarely gets dazzling data, but he is finally recognized by the fans. The embarrassing place was that he knew that An Jie was not as embarrassed as the outside world said! The weaker the media talked about Anjie, the greater the pressure on Morris.

It's not that Morris doesn't have confidence in himself. He believes that he can continue his previous good performance in the next game. But Morris also knew that Anjie was not the kind of person who would wait and die. This guy should be studying new ways to deal with himself now, right?

"Ah cut!" An Jie, sweating profusely, suddenly sneezed. He sniffed. Didn't he catch a cold?

With An Jie's loud voice, several team doctors immediately rushed to the training ground with thermometers. It is indeed easy to catch a cold and burn when blowing on the air conditioner in a profusely sweating condition. The game where Anjie played with the Lakers in the tiebreaker has become a classic in the history of the nBa playoffs. But the team doctors in the City of Torn don't want this classic to fall on the Blazers again.

"The body temperature is 36.5, which is normal!" The three team doctors gathered around An Jie as if observing rare animals. Gerald Wallace on the side was amused and laughed at this scene.

"I said, this is too exaggerated." An Jie wiped the sweat from his head. He was not tired, but was frightened by this battle.

"Okay, okay, a false alarm. By the way...Jace! Turn the **** air-conditioning temperature higher for me!" Ricard said disapprovingly, but he was as nervous as the team doctors.

Maybe everyone on the Thunder wouldn't have thought that the Blazers' training atmosphere would be so relaxed, but at least one thing they said was right, that is, Anjie is indeed working on a new offensive plan with Ricard.

"Are you sure that I can pass just this way?" It's not that Anjie doesn't believe Ricard, but just by forcing his "conditional reflex" to break Morris' defense, Anjie still thinks it's too simple.

"Your offense or Morris' defense, which one do you think is stronger?" Ricard did not answer An Jie, but instead asked a question.

"Everyone is half a cat." Although Anjie wanted to beat Morris very much, his evaluation of Morris was very high. This guy's defense is even more tenacious than himself! This is what Anjie has to admit.

"Yes, to put it bluntly, your offense is as strong as his defense. Don't forget, you are the most technically comprehensive center in this league." When Ricard said this, he did not add "one" at the end. ".

"I don't think there are any technical moves that will be your offensive blind spot. Jeff Van Gundy is very smart. He knows to study your offensive habits to guess your next move. In this way, Morris will naturally be able to easily Defend you. But he is not smart enough, because he did this, the only reason is that Jeff Van Gundy has no means to limit you at all, he can only use this rigid and clumsy method to set up defense against you. As long as you disrupt your offensive order, all the arrangements he made will be invalid!" Ricard vividly and simply explained the reason why they trained like this today.

"So, give me a good practice! Broader your thinking. The inability to hit back doesn't mean you have to break through. The tentative advancement does not mean that you have to turn over jumpers, and the face-to-face attack does not mean that it must be a forced assault." De is confident in Anjie's comprehensive abilities. As long as this inertial thinking can be overshadowed, Jeff Van Gundy's rigid set is completely useless!

"Huh..." After adjusting his breathing, An Jie and the trainers holding large cotton pads started a melee fight under the basket. Van Gundy is very rigid, whether Morris is tough or not, now Anjie doesn't want to care. His only certain truth is that sweat can be exchanged for everything! Since you want to win, it's easy, just sweat!

The atmosphere is relaxed but not at all relaxed. This is today's rose garden. The game came to the door, and it was time for the Trail Blazers to establish an advantage.

....................

"Catherine!!!!!! Wow!!!" As soon as Catherine in a black coat stepped onto the stage, there was an enthusiastic cheer from below. Her steps and expressions, as well as her proficiency in the display of clothes, make you never see that this girl is a model who is a monk.

After a flash of light, Catherine turned and left, preparing to walk backstage. This section of the road, Catherine walked very fast. Indeed, no matter how big a model you are, you must leave the stage as soon as possible. You cannot stay or perform on stage, so as not to delay the appearance of the next model.

But Catherine walked fast, not just because of the request. She rushed into the backstage in a hurry, took off the flashy coat, sat in front of her dressing table and picked up the phone.

"I heard it, the cheers are incredible. I'm proud of you, Catherine. Your father, he will definitely be proud of your achievements." Anjie's voice came out of the receiver, Catherine just now When he came on stage, the phone didn't hang up.

"Tomorrow night, you will get many times more cheers than now, right?" Catherine looked at the calendar, and tomorrow, the third game of the Western Conference Finals will begin. And this time, the battlefield also came from the Chesapeake Energy Arena to the Rose Garden in Portland.

"Hey, by the way, what time does your father arrive tomorrow? I've got the hotel and the tickets."

"I'll be in Oklahoma in the morning. I should be on the plane now. You don't have to entertain him, he will take care of himself. Concentrate on preparing for the game, you know?" Catherine's father finally couldn't restrain his inner impulse. , Decided to close the door for a few days and go to Portland to watch Anjie's game.

"Don't worry, he won't affect my training. This guy is a loyal fan of the Tornado team. He must be very happy to see Coach Ricard again." An Jie can already imagine the ecstatic expression of the bearded man.

"No, we will be happy only to see you win the game~www.readwn.com~ Catherine is not only An Jie’s girlfriend, she is also one of An Jie’s most loyal fans. And this sentence The words undoubtedly speak the aspirations of all Trailblazers fans.

"If I win the championship, I will propose to you!"

"I know, we said yes, I'll wait for you."

"Trust me Catherine, it's almost, it's almost..."

When basketball and love are linked together, no one knows what will happen. But what is certain is that An Jie is bound to give Morris and Van Gundy a headache for a while.

Back then, Catherine almost put aside her fledgling career and went to the hospital to accompany An Jie, who was reimbursed for the season. In order to protect Catherine, An Jie dismissed the big teeth of conspiring photographers against the pressure of public opinion. When Anjie is not going well, Catherine's call can refresh him. But when Catherine was scared, An Jie's voice would make the girl feel safe... Catherine and An Jie always support each other, keep moving forward, and never stop. Now, it's time for both of them to reap their rewards in their careers and lives.

The championship, the desire for this thing, has occupied Anjie's entire brain...
