Super Role Player

Chapter 23: Behind and Leading (3)

Scoring 30 points before halftime, Anxi handed in a perfect answer.

Zach Lowe is also paying attention to this game. He cannot ignore the Knicks, the second team in the Eastern Conference last season. As for the 76ers, Zach Lowe is also a little confused about the current situation of the 76ers. In his opinion, signing Anxi after sending away Zhu Huo Ledi, the two operations are completely contradictory, so Zach Lowe is a little confused about the goals of the 76ers for the new season.

But after watching this game, Zachlowy probably had an idea.

30 points in the half, maybe even higher. Anxi's strength has obviously reached the level of a superstar in the league. With Anxi's 76ers, the strength of the new season is obviously not to be underestimated. Therefore, Zach Lowe played in the originally determined ranking. A fork.

"It seems that I have to watch a few more 76ers games."

On the field, the 76ers were still 3 points behind. They just defended against a wave of offense from the Knicks, and now they hold the ball.

"Michael Carter Williams is holding the ball. His performance in this game is still a bit bad. He missed three consecutive shots, but his ball possession is still very stable. Let's see how the 76ers play this ball."

Anxi stood in the bottom corner for a while, and Byron Mullens had already established his position in the middle distance. Then, Anxi suddenly took a step forward, brought the speed to the extreme, and ran towards the three-point line.

"Anxi! He circled out, the cover of Byron Mullens! Anxi is empty! Three points!"

The commentator of Turner Sports opened his mouth wide, and the next second, he shouted: "Go in! Three-pointer!"

"Anxi scored two consecutive three-pointers, and the 76ers evened the score!"

Spike Lee cussed from the sidelines, Mike Woodson frowned, called a timeout, and replaced Iman Shumpert.

After Iman Shumpert played, Anxi's defensive pressure was a little less. After all, Shumpert is not a nerve knife like Smith, and it is much easier to defend, so if he is defensive, Anxi can also take care of the defense.

When Anthony got the ball with his back and turned around for a jumper, Anxi directly lost Shumpert, rushed to defend, and helped Jack Crowder defend Anthony's turnaround jumper.

The basketball hit the edge of the basket, and then bounced out quickly. Cole Aldridge stuck Kenyon Martin behind him, and directly grabbed the basketball. Anxi asked for the ball at the free throw line, and Cole Aldridge directly gave the basketball to go out.

The Knicks retreated very quickly, mainly when Anxi jumped to Anthony's side,

They felt that the goal could not be scored, so the two guards retreated first. Anthony originally wanted to grab a rebound, but Cole Aldridge's position was so good that he directly blocked Kenyon Martin. Then grab the rebound easily.

Fortunately, Iman Shumpert and the others retreated quickly, and the 76ers failed to play a fast break. Anxi advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and then faced Shumpert again.

Iman Shumpert forced him over, and Anxi assumed a three-threat posture. Now Anxi can be regarded as an offensive kaleidoscope, with breakthroughs, three-pointers, mid-range shots, post-ups and low post, plus an emergency stop jumper. And with a fadeaway jumper, Anxi's offense can also be hard to guard against.

Therefore, when Anxi held the ball in a three-threat pose, Iman Shumpert was still under great pressure. He had to open his arms to surround Anxi.

Anxi, however, has changed from being unchanged to ever-changing. He observed the Knicks' restricted area, and then suddenly activated a step and wiped it from the left side of Iman Shumpert. Kenyon Martin, the insider of the Knicks, saw this and hurriedly defended Coming over, he missed Cole Aldridge again.

So Anxi made a ground pass, passed under Kenyon Martin's crotch, and came directly to Cole Aldridge's hands.

With a bang, Cole Aldridge dunked and the 76ers took the lead.

"Beautiful dunk, Anxi attracted the defense, and Cole Aldridge on the inside dunked the ball. It seems that Cole Aldridge can stay in Philadelphia. He performed very well in this game!"

On the court, Jack Crowder once again faced Carmelo Anthony who held the ball. Anthony also assumed a three-threat posture. , but this ball was caught off guard by Anthony.

Anthony turned around directly, shook Jack Crowder, then suddenly turned in the opposite direction, leaned forward, and sent the basketball into the basket.

There were cheers at Madison Square Garden, Carmelo Anthony showed off his muscles, and Jack Crowder turned back to the baseline in a bit of depression.

In the offense of the 76ers, Anxi still took the ball, but this time it was still not him who scored. Jack Crowder took a chance and ran diagonally into the penalty area. , get 2 points.

Claude returned the ball to Anthony on the offensive end, but returned to the defensive end and still failed to prevent Anthony's offense. Anthony singled under the basket, turned around and scored 2 points for a layup.

The score continued to be tied, but in the next attack of the 76ers, Anxi suddenly shot a three-pointer from the outside again, and went in again with a bang!

36 points in the half! The 76ers also led by 3 points at once.

There was not much time left in the second quarter. Carmelo Anthony ran back to catch the ball, and Anxi applied for a defense change.

He ran directly in front of Anthony, and the two met again.

"Anxi personally defends Anthony. It seems that he wants to keep the lead of the 76ers."

Anthony was in control of the ball, suddenly dribbled the ball from the crotch, took half a step back, followed by another cross step, after the ball was handed over from the crotch to the right hand, he immediately dribbled the ball behind the back, continuous dribbling Anxi was also shaken twice by the feint.

At this moment, Anthony suddenly leaned forward, made a fake move to break through from the right side of Anxi, and then took advantage of the time when Anxi was defending to the right, instantly adjusted his center of gravity back, and then broke through from the left side of Anxi ...

Anxi also quickly forcibly adjusted his defensive focus, and the whole person quickly posted up, but Anthony still got the space to break through, and rushed to the three-point line against Anxi.

When Anxi completely withstood Anthony's breakthrough, Anthony stopped, then turned his back, and directly caught a jumper with a turned back, and he shot it like this!

In order to avoid Anxi's interference, Anthony also added a little back, but Anxi is obviously not that easy to fool. Anthony's shot is not easy, but if Anthony really makes such a shot, it is almost guaranteed to score, because Anthony The angle has been found, and the shot is shot after aiming.

Therefore, Anxi's method is also very simple. He has an advantage in bouncing. He directly pulls up and stretches out his long arms to pounce on the basketball.

With a snap, Anthony's body just leaned back a little, and Anxi's big hands were already covering the basketball.

Then, Anxi grabbed the basketball directly with a big hand!

With a bang, the commentator yelled: "Catch it! Anxi let Carmelo Anthony be deflated!"

And Anxi, who caught the basketball, naturally wouldn't let go of this good opportunity, and shouted directly: "Fast break!"

When the 76ers heard the yell, they immediately reacted, especially Jack Crowder. When Anxi was defending Anthony, he had been watching intently. Anxi's defense opened his eyes. When Anxi shouted a fast break, Jack Crowder was also the first to react.

He galloped towards the frontcourt, and Anxi's pass arrived quickly.

Bang bang! Jack Crowder dunks in the frontcourt! The Philadelphia 76ers widened the point difference!

"Beautiful!" The 76ers' bench suddenly boiled, and the bench players waved towels. Time was running out in the first half, and the 76ers expanded the score.

For the rest of the time, Anxi directly defended Anthony, which not only allowed Jack Crowder to learn the experience of defending Anthony, but also allowed the 76ers to further expand the point difference. At the end of the first half, the 76ers led by Anxi , already leading by 7 points.

The lead of 7 points in the half is not a big advantage, but it means that the 76ers have a chance to win the game, and Anxi, who scored 38 points in the half, has completely proved himself. The team scored more than half of the points, and the 76ers' lead in Anxi contributed a lot.

Brett Brown also noticed this. In the second half, he chose to let Anxi continue to play as a small forward, and James Anderson was placed at the shooting guard position. James Anderson has a certain three-point ability. Basically locked a place to stay in the team.

After partnering with Anxi on the wing in the third quarter, James Anderson's performance became better and better. He received consecutive passes from Anxi and hit three-pointers from the outside.

So after the start of the third quarter, the 76ers continued to widen the point difference, and Anxi's personal score quickly exceeded 40 points.

At the end of the third quarter, even though the Knicks counterattacked with all their strength, the 76ers still got a 14-point lead, and Anxi's personal score also reached 46 points.

Henry Abbott, who is far away in Miami, doesn't know what to say anymore. Anxi scored a high score, and the 76ers are about to win. The opponent who won the game was the second place in the Eastern Conference last season. In the warm-up of his new season, The Knicks also ranked third in the East, but the 76ers won the third place in the East...

So Henry Abbott found that there was only one of his predictions for the 76ers that hadn't been beaten, and that was McAway's strength, but is McAway so important?

Henry Abbott touched his chin and smiled. He felt that it was time for McAway to become important.

In the fourth quarter of the game, Anxi's personal score broke through 5o, and the 76ers also firmly controlled the situation on the court. The Knicks still wanted to counterattack, and Madison's booing had made them realize that if they lose this game , the consequences of a three-game losing streak will be extremely dire...
