The Way of the Center

Remember【】in a second, providing you with wonderful novels to read.

"Ann, Guardian. Just, do, it!"

The next day, Nike's official website immediately updated the news of Anjie's joining the Nike family on the homepage. A few simple white words and a pure black background, although plain, but well displayed Nike's own personality. style.

Nike specially sent the latest Nike.Hyperdunk basketball shoes to Anjie on the same day, and sent two pairs of different colors for the home and away games according to the main colors of the Thunder. Although Anjie can afford these shoes himself, such timely feedback from Nike still shows their sincerity.

During the training in the afternoon, An Jie was very excited. He had just signed a new contract, and there were hundreds of thousands of dollars in his account. Now he could choose all kinds of equipment he dreamed of for free. Who wouldn't get excited when dreams come true?

Just after the Thunder beat the Warriors, Anjie had just signed a new contract. The Thunder ushered in their next opponent at home on February 23, the Charlotte Bobcats.

The Bobcats are not bad this season. Like the Thunder, they are only five games away from the eighth-ranked Pistons in the Eastern Conference. Both sides are working hard to qualify for the playoffs, so even in an away game, the Bobcats still made a tenacious resistance.

However, Gerald Wallace, who is in the limelight, can stop the Thunder's three young men. Although "Elvis" scored a game-high 33 points and slightly ahead of Durant in terms of statistics, he won the game. The team is the Thunder at home.

With 15 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, Anjie didn't score much in this game, but his all-around data still made him very dazzling. Behind the glamorous Durant, Anjie is undoubtedly the greatest behind-the-scenes hero.

Interestingly, D.J. Augustin, who exchanged jerseys with Anjie in the NCAA field, got a chance to come off the bench today. He scored 7 points and 8 assists in 27 minutes. In the NBA field, he still failed to beat Anjie long-cherished wish.

In college, D.J. Augustin was much more famous than Anjie, but judging from the current situation of the two in the NBA, Anjie is undoubtedly more successful.

The draft is a gamble, and the comparison between An Jie and those who were drafted in front of him is the best interpretation of this sentence. The NCAA data and draft picks are for reference only. To what extent the NBA can develop, we will have to play to see the outcome.

100 to 90, the Thunder narrowly missed the Bobcats. Just relying on the 9-man rotation, Van Gundy led the team to a hard-won two-game winning streak.

just one day later,

The Thunder will face strong opponents in back-to-back games. But at this moment in the season, almost all opponents can be called strong opponents.

An Jie was fully prepared for this match, because last time, he was not convinced by the loss. In the defeat at the Staples Center, the referees made biased decisions, and An Jie was still brooding about it.

The Zijin Corps, which continue to lead the West, will step into the territory of Oklahoma City. The poster of "Defend Your Home Field" outside the Chesapeake Energy Arena looks crumbling under the iron hoof of the Zijin Corps.

Anjie was very active in this game, and he continued his iron-blooded defense when facing the Warriors. But "Peter Pan" Kobe is obviously not on the same level as Monta Alice and others.

Anjie may be able to easily block the attacks of Crawford and Alice, but this Kobe Bryant can always turn decay into magic.

"Another hand-changing layup! Kobe is still unstoppable today!" Before the Lakers played against the Thunder, they had won another four-game winning streak, and Kobe's excellent performance was undoubtedly Zen Master's biggest weapon to win. Although Kobe is now ranked third in the iron list, this does not affect the Black Mamba's consecutive high scores.

"Angie worked really hard. He is definitely a guy who deserves to win. It's a pity that they faced the team that reached the finals last season. These two teams are not at the same level in terms of goals. Up."

Without the help of the home whistle, the powerful Los Angeles Lakers still beat the incomplete Thunder to pieces.

The Lakers' bench scored 26 points, while the Thunder's bench scored only 19. Don't underestimate the 7 points. For a team of the Los Angeles Lakers level, 7 points is already a gap that is difficult to catch up.

Angie defended Gasol with only 4 of 11 shots, making his shooting percentage a season low of 36%. On the offensive end, Anjie beat Gasol and scored 19 points.

But even so, the Lakers still defeated the Thunder at home 107 to 93, allowing their winning streak to easily reach five games. Five consecutive victories, this is an achievement that the Thunder have never achieved this season. But for the Lakers, the five-game winning streak is just the beginning of a series of victories.

"The best rookie of the month ranks first, and Anjie is expected to get his hands on this award for the first time!" Although the team lost, there is still good news for Anjie.

According to a T.NT program report, Anjie ranked first in the nominations for the best rookie in the Western Conference in February. If nothing else, this month's best rookie award in the West will be won by Anjie.

There are only two games left in February. As long as An Jie doesn't perform abnormally, winning the prize is almost a certainty.

Averaging 22.7 points, 11.3 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 2.1 blocks per game, Anjie's data in February is definitely an All-Star level data, and Westbrook, who ranks second, cannot compare with such data. Moreover, the Thunder's record in February is also very good. So far, the Thunder have played 11 games in February, but won 8 of them.

Except for the Lakers and Suns, the Thunder won every opponent they met in February. Due to the dual effects of personal data and team performance, Anjie deserves the award if he can win the award. It is undoubtedly a very difficult thing to get the best award of the month in the west where there are many strong players. Anjie's teammates Durant and Westbrook have both won such honors, and now Anjie is only one step away from accomplishing this goal.

Losing to the Lakers at home didn't frustrate the Thunder. After all, the strong lineup of the Lakers is there. No team in this league can guarantee that they will win when facing the Lakers, even the defending champion Celtics with the Big Three dare not say so.

Losing to the Lakers can only prove that the Zijin Army is really strong this season, but it doesn't mean that the Thunder's state has encountered problems.

On February 27, the Thunder went to Texas and started their back-to-back away trip again.

Although they came to Texas again, the Thunder's opponent in this campaign is not the Houston Rockets, but the Dallas Mavericks, who are equally strong and currently ranked sixth in the West.

The head coach of the Mavericks naturally knows how good the Thunder's defense is. If Dirk meets Anjie, it's hard to say what the game will be like.

But if Dirk can always be staggered with Anjie, the Mavericks' chances of winning will undoubtedly become greater.

Nick Collison and Nenad Kostic, Carlisle decided to make a big fuss about these two guys.

Under the desperate entanglement of Eric Dampier, known as the "second center in the league", Anjie really couldn't defend Lowitzki's point. He could only watch as Lowitzki took easy shots again and again and scored frequently.

The Mavericks know that the Thunder are not ordinary people, so the confrontation in this game is very intense. Van Gundy was on tenterhooks from the beginning of the game, for fear that the Thunder would add another injury to the team.

There is an old saying in China that what you are afraid of will come. Just 8 minutes into the first quarter, someone from the Thunder team fell down. However, the man who fell was the last person the Thunder fans wanted to see.

"Kevin Durant! He fell on the field in pain, and the Thunder players surrounded him with concern. His injury touched the hearts of every Thunder player! If Durant's injury is serious, then The Thunder team's efforts this season will fall short!" Mike Breen is not exaggerating at all, although Anjie and Westbrook are also very good, but without Durant, it is difficult for the Thunder to rely on these two first-year rookies. The team is on track.

The team doctor carried Durant directly out of the court on a stretcher. It seemed that this injury was no longer a simple sprain.

Although Durant missed due to injury, the game will not be suspended. Van Gundy must now eliminate all distractions and devote himself to the game.

Facing the two defensive black holes of Collison and Skotic, Lowitzki lived up to expectations and made 30 crazy shots, 16 of which were hit.

However, due to Durant's injury, Anjie and Westbrook became the most offensive people.

Anjie made 12 of 20 shots and Westbrook made 14 of 30 shots. The two of them responded like chicken blood, eclipsing the German tank's 41 points.

The game was dragged to the last second, and the score was still tied at 108. At another critical moment, the Thunder took possession of the ball for the final attack.

Without Durant, Carlisle naturally focused on Westbrook and Anjie for the last defense.

Sure enough, Sefolosa's sideline ball first reached Westbrook's hands, and Westbrook's forced breakthrough made Anjie the most threatening target. But Westbrook and Anjie are just bait, Carlisle is absolutely unexpected for Van Gundy's bold arrangement.

"An Jie is ready to shoot! Can he stage a lore show again!? No! This is not a shot! An Jie's fake shot is a true pass! Sefoloza is left unattended!"

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the right to make the last attack fell into the hands of the newcomer Sefoloza.

In the last three seconds, the Swiss calmly raised his hand to shoot. He lived up to the trust of his coach and teammates. The two-pointer from the bottom corner went into the net and killed the game.

"Oh my god! The Thunder team has achieved another lore! Their performance at critical moments is up and down, but when they are good, they can definitely kill with one blow! The Thunder team took away the victory!"

This fierce-looking Swiss player rarely showed an excited smile. He is good at defense, but he sent a lore goal on the offensive end. This kind of trust is definitely not available in other teams. Being supported by teammates and coaches to complete the lore, at this moment, he really fell in love with the Thunder team.

He yelled wantonly and hugged everyone tightly, making it impossible to see that he had only joined the Thunder for a week.

Anjie's performance is still strong, with 28 points and 12 rebounds, and also sent a key pass. Not only did he win without Durant, but he also cemented himself as the No. 1 Rookie of the Month leaderboard.

110 to 108, the Thunder's inside defense could not prevent the German chariot from crushing, but the tenacious blue and white lightning still electrocuted the Mavericks at the last moment.

Although they won the victory in such an exciting way as a lore, everyone in the Thunder team couldn't relax. Because of Durant's injury, there is still no result yet. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users please browse and read for a better reading experience.
