The Way of the Center
Chapter 115: Bloodshed
Remember【】in a second, providing you with wonderful novels to read.
O'Neal is holding the ball more and more times, and Anjie's pressure on the defensive end is also increasing. Although An Jie is strong-willed and does his best to defend, O'Neal can always use his huge body to squeeze out space and score points on An Jie's head time and time again.
And Anjie did not show weakness on the offensive end. Since Westbrook and Durant both ended up saving their energy for the decisive battle in the fourth quarter, Anjie once again became the Thunder's first choice. There are frequent singles between the two centers. In the current NBA, there are not many games with this rhythm in a season.
O'Neal shouldered Anjie hard for a layup, and Anjie tricked O'Neal into hooking with a fake turn.
Angie has nothing to do with O'Neal's 147 kg weight, and O'Neal is also overwhelmed by Anjie's flexible and smooth movements. Until the end of the third quarter, O'Neal had scored 19 points, and Anjie had 15 points.
Facing the defense of the big sharks, Anjie scored 15 points in three quarters, and the commentators in mainland China were full of hype. Some TV stations in the United States claimed that Anjie's data was just inflated, because out of the 15 points, at least six or seven points were scored against Admondson.
In the third quarter, both sides scored very high points again, and the points in a single quarter once again exceeded 30. 87 to 92, the Thunder still fell behind by five points. Just looking at the score, many people would think that the whole game is over. In fact, the two teams still have a full 12-minute quarter.
In the fourth quarter, Stoudemire, who had been on the bench for a long time, appeared again. It's troublesome enough for the Suns to have O'Neal inside, and Anjie doesn't want to be attacked by the enemy.
After winking with Joe Smith, the two began to switch positions silently!
"Coach Jeff Van Gundy, what kind of strategy is this? How come the person defending O'Neal has become Joe Smith?" Mike Breen looked puzzled at the exchange of the Thunder's two insiders, not only Mike Breen, This sudden change of position left all the commentators in a daze.
No matter how the Thunder plan, the strength gap is there. O'Neill playing Joe Smith? It couldn't be easier!
Nash hoisted the basketball into the penalty area without even thinking about it. For the sake of O'Neal, it is completely fine not to bombard him!
O'Neal repeated his tricks, catching the ball and turning around. Unexpectedly, the moment he faced the frame, Anjie made up for it, and O'Neal caught himself in a double-team as soon as he turned around.
In fact, Anjie and O'Neill have always maintained a close distance, so that he can assist Joe Smith to complete the defense, but he is not entangled with these two people.
Anjie stands like this to be able to make up quickly, because his real goal is not O'Neal.
Seeing that Stoudemire, who was unattended and cutting inside, was raising his hand for the ball, O'Neal barely passed the ball. The pass was not good, and Stoudemire could not catch the ball comfortably. , so you have to reduce the speed of the in-cutting. However, this is just giving An Jie the time to take his place.
"It's now!" Seeing that the little bully held the basketball firmly and started to take three steps, An Jie took a big stride from O'Neal and stood firmly on the basket. An Jie covered his crotch with his hands. He knew that Stoudemire, who had already started to move, would not stop.
really! Although he saw that Anjie had already stood still in the three-second zone, Stoudemire still jumped towards the inside. Xiaobawang doesn't think so much, as long as he gets a chance, he will definitely choose to attack the frame.
But he can get a chance, but it is also part of the overall defensive strategy. The strong inertia after Stoudemire's take-off saved Anjie from even flopping. Both Xiaobawang and Anjie fell to the ground, and it seemed that they fell very badly.
It was indeed serious. The impact of Stoudemire made An Jie's chest tight, and he was hit backwards and fell to the ground. He also slid on the floor for a certain distance, which made An Jie's back burn.
The referee's whistle sounded, and Stoudemire thought it was a defensive foul, because he didn't believe that An Jie could stand in such a short period of time, and An Jie must have not stood still when he blocked him.
The referee repeatedly studied the video several times, because it will be directly related to whether Stoudemire can play. In the end, after re-watching the replay four times, the referee team agreed that when Stoudemire hit, Angie had already gained a firm footing.
"Offensive foul! The referee awarded an offensive foul! Stoudemire's foul count has reached five times. If there is another one, he will have to withdraw from the game!"
Seeing An Jie's innocent expression, Stoudemire was very angry. This damn kid, this is not the first time he has done this. But this time Anjie really wasn't pretending. Stoudemire's impact really made Anjie fall hard enough. He wanted to flop at first, but later he realized that he didn't need to do that when facing the hot-headed bully An Jie.
If it weren't for O'Neill, Stoudemire would have taken the initiative to apply to defend Anjie. It is really hard to explain the hatred in his heart if he doesn't give this Chinese a little bit of color.
But this time the attack on Anjie fell to a high position, and he did not continue to fight against O'Neal.
"You will regret it!" According to Terry Porter's arrangement, Angie, who holds the ball in the high post, belongs to Stoudemire. A block or a steal, anyway, Stoudemire must Let An Jie pay the price.
Bad temper, this factor that has nothing to do with basketball has now become the fatal weakness of the little bully.
"Hey, I don't want to fight you. You can't guard against me. Change to Shaq." Anjie held the ball and made a three-threat move, but he spoke to Stoudemire.
When An Jie said this, Stoudemire suddenly became angry from embarrassment. An Jie didn't waste any time and started a breakthrough. Seeing Stoudemire's purple face, An Jie knew that he had succeeded.
Anjie didn't completely get rid of Stoudemire's defense. He jumped directly against Stoudemire's body for a layup, and his elbow "inadvertently" hit Stoudemire's abdomen.
The little bully was already angry, but now he took a dark elbow, he couldn't control himself anymore. During the confrontation in the air, Stoudemire suddenly reached out and pushed Anjie out.
"Bastard!" An Jie didn't expect Stoudemire to make such a ruthless shot, and he pushed himself away without any disguise in the air. An Jie, whose center of gravity was unstable, fell heavily to the ground. After gliding on the smooth wooden floor for a certain distance, An Jie suddenly felt a heavy blow to his head. He suddenly felt that the entire Chesapeake Energy Arena was full of people It is ghosting.
"What the hell are you doing!" Joe Smith was already displeased with Stoudemire's arrogant attitude, and now seeing his little brother being bullied, he was the first to rush forward and hit Stoudemire with his chest one time.
"Don't bother me!" Stoudemire was already a powder keg ignited by Anjie at this moment. He pushed away Joe Smith, who was much older than himself, and yelled at Smith.
The referee immediately intervened, and more and more Thunder and Suns players also joined the ranks of persuading the fight.
An Jie felt dizzy that his face was a little hot, and when he wiped it with his hand, An Jie's palm was full of hot blood.
Morris, who was watching TV, clenched his fists. If he was on the court, he would definitely beat that guy named Stoudemire to the ground!
Catherine covered her mouth with her hands. Under Stoudemire's deliberate force, An Jie fell hard. Catherine is most worried about An Jie's health.
"Hey! Ann! Can you hear me!?" Westbrook spotted Angie whose face was covered in blood. After being pushed down by Stoudemire, the huge inertia caused Angie's head to hit the basketball directly. corners of the shelf. Although the basketball hoop was covered with a layer of soft cushions, but since Stoudemire had no strength left, this force was enough for the basketball hoop to smash An Jie's head.
Gradually, An Jie finally heard the noise and shouts around him clearly, it seems that this hit was indeed not light.
Stoudemire was immediately called a first-degree malicious foul by the referee and was expelled due to the full number of fouls. At this moment, not only did he not go back to the locker room obediently, but he argued with the referee full of swear words. Even Terry Porter had to stand in the way lest Stoudemire get into more trouble.
"This guy should be banned for life!"
"Damn An Jie, if something happens to the prodigal son, you won't be able to get rid of the claws."
The Chinese fans in front of the TV also yelled at Stoudemire. Yao Ming had clashed with him before, and his image in the hearts of Chinese fans has always been bad. As a result, now, he has successfully become one of the NBA players most hated by Chinese fans.
In order to preserve its reputation, the NBA banned all TV stations from broadcasting the scene of Angie's face covered in blood, and just replayed Stoudemire's foul over and over again. Therefore, after Stoudemire was ejected, the camera has not been given to Anjie. In fact, An Jie didn't bleed a lot, it was only because he wiped it with his hands that the blood was all over his face.
"It's okay Russell, Kevin, you don't need to support me." An Jie held a towel and covered the wound. He was fully awake, but Westbrook and Durant still supported him from left to right. Went to the field.
Although An Jie felt that he was fine, the NBA did not allow players who were still bleeding to play, even if it was a nosebleed. Secondly, Jeff Van Gundy is also very worried. He will not rashly let An Jie play without a thorough inspection.
Several team doctors immediately tested An Jie to ensure that An Jie was conscious at the moment. Shaking his arm, he confirmed how many fingers the team doctor stretched out. Of course, Anjie didn't have any problems.
Afterwards, the team doctor immediately stopped the bleeding. When all this happened, the game on the field had already returned to normal, but the anxious audience in front of the TV had not been able to see any footage of An Jie.
"It shouldn't be a serious problem. It's just an ordinary skin injury. If you're worried, do a thorough check after the game. Now he can sit on the bench." After finishing everything, the team doctor also reported the situation to Van Gundy.
Van Gundy nodded and signaled Anjie to sit down and rest. Now that the game has come to a critical moment, Van Gundy is too busy on both sides.
Seeing the team doctor leave the field and An Jie sitting on the bench in good condition, the Thunder fans let out a sigh of relief.
Without Anjie, the Thunder's interior defense has returned to the level of the ten-game losing streak. O'Neal did whatever he wanted under the basket, but neither Collison nor Petro could stop the big shark from biting the basket.
Although Durant and Westbrook are catching up, but without effective organization and containment, their offense has become much more difficult than before.
"Boss, I'm really fine." An Jie was also anxious off the court. He brushed his hair back to indicate to Van Gundy that his wound was no longer bleeding.
It's no joke to suffer severe head injuries, not to mention that An Jie was still unconscious for a few seconds just now. Van Gundy would not take risks with his players. If Anjie experienced a fierce confrontation after going on the field and something went wrong, then the loss outweighed the gain.
"You can't play now, Ann. If you have a thorough inspection and you are fine, then you can get the chance to play." Van Gundy rejected An Jie's request to play. He didn't want to take the risk of taking An Jie up for a regular season. .
Until the red light tube on the backboard came on, Durant and Westbrook also failed to reverse the score. The two of them have been exhausted, but without the inside barrier, the Suns' offense is completely alive, and the two of them alone cannot compete with the Suns, who are extremely capable of scoring.
As for An Jie, although he failed to go to the end with the team, he still applied to play after being beaten badly.
"I'm sorry Ann, I couldn't bring you a victory." Westbrook lowered his head, seeming a little guilty, but he didn't know that he had already scored a career-high 31 points in this game! And the hit rate is as high as 75%!
"How's the wound on the head?" Durant was concerned about An Jie's injury.
"No problem at all, don't worry brothers, I will fight to the end with you in the next game." An Jie stood up and put his arms around Westbrook and Durant's necks. Wu Hua raised his camera and fixed this scene forever in the long river of time.
O'Neal wanted to talk to An Jie, but since he and Stoudemire were teammates, it was not easy to disturb the three young people who were hugging each other, so as not to embarrass everyone.
O'Neill didn't want to admit this, but he seemed to really like the brat Anjie in his heart. This guy is very similar to Yao Ming, but very different from Yao Ming...
With 28 points and 12 rebounds, O'Neal has done everything a 36-year-old can do. It's a pity that the person who confronted him at the last moment was not the Asian boy who made people love and hate.
110 to 102, the Suns beat the Thunder by eight points to win. However, all the fans in the Chesapeake Energy Arena stood up and applauded the three young people hugging each other. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users please browse and read for a better reading experience.
