The Way of the Center

Chapter 179: Top of Asia

"The Chinese team is already ten points behind, and the poor shooting percentage is a problem that Guo Shiqiang must solve now! On the offensive end, the boys of the Chinese men's basketball team have to increase their success rate. ☆☆Novel Download☆☆" Following the analysis of the commentary, The timeout ended in a blink of an eye, Yi Jianlian went off to rest, and Wang Zhizhi came on. The center forward is still An Jie, and he hasn't had a minute of rest in the first quarter.

"Doesn't that guy need to rest?" Haddadi watched Anjie enter the field and stretched his sore muscles. The guy who was more than ten kilograms lighter than himself had surprisingly good fighting ability. No wonder he was able to play the main force, while he could only be a marginal figure.

After Anjie played, the Iranian team had to bring Haddadi up. If Haddadi rests, then the Iranian team's inside defense is no different from giving up.

Yao Ming is injured, who is the number one center in Asia? The duel between Haddadi and Anjie continued.

An Jie relied on Haddadi to start singles. Haddadi is not weak, so An Jie did not take advantage of it.

"It's not bad." An Jie was not discouraged when he failed in back hitting, but smiled slightly. He finally met a decent opponent in the Asian Championships. It's time to practice what Dameng gave him.

Anjie held the ball with both hands and began to turn towards the basket. Haddadi didn't dare not follow, he had already clearly grasped Anjie's threat on the offensive end just now.

Haddadi may be considered flexible in Asia, but in front of Anjie, his movement is too slow!

Seeing Haddadi move with him, Anjie immediately turned in the opposite direction, making a shot. Haddadi changed his focus again and rushed towards An Jie, leaving no room for the number 12 guy!

Haddadi raised his hands and rushed forward, Anjie bowed his waist and swiped past Haddadi at the right time. Haddadi, whose center of gravity was completely moved forward, had no possibility of retreating again. He easily bypassed Haddadi, and Anjie made a layup with a low hand.

"Beautiful footsteps! This is simply the reappearance of Olajuwon's dream dance! Anjie just came back from Olajuwon's training camp half a month ago, and now it seems that the effect is very obvious!"

Not only the commentary, but even the audience stood up and cheered excitedly. Both Wang Zhizhi and Haddadi's inside footsteps are actually good, but An Jie just completed the set beautifully and coherently, and the most important thing is that he also scored the ball. In terms of appreciation, An Jie's footsteps are much better than those of his two predecessors.

Compared with last season, Anjie's footsteps are more fake and more deceptive. And his movements around the basket are much richer than last season.

After returning from the timeout, he scored a beautiful goal with his footsteps, and Haddadi can be considered to have learned the true strength of Anjie.

Iranian team coach Beklovic shook his head helplessly. In his opinion, Guo Shiqiang's on-the-spot command was not worth mentioning at all. He had never formulated any tactics against the changes of the Iranian team. But this An Jie can use his personal ability to cover up Guo Shiqiang's poor on-the-spot command!

If Iran also has such players, then they can also become the hegemony of Asia! It was useless for Beklovich to think like this, he had to try his best to restrain Anjie, otherwise the Iranian team would just miss the championship.

On the offensive end, Anjie was unstoppable. On the defensive end, he still drove the Iranian players out of the three-second zone.

The Iranian team scored only a handful of points in the three-second zone, but it is a pity that the other players of the Chinese team still failed to regain their form. They allowed the Iranian players to get too much shooting space from the outside. In the final today, all the members of the Iranian team were in a brave state, and they were able to throw the ball from the outside.

Angie began to miss Sefoloza and Westbrook a little. He can clearly see the gaps of his teammates in the low post, but there is no way, he can't defend every position separately.

"You call out An Jie, and when you see a gap, tell them to make up for it!" After the Iranian player made another shot, Wang Zhizhi stopped An Jie and told him the solution to the defensive problem.

In the past, Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi would remind their teammates like this when they were playing center forwards. Now that Wang Zhizhi is playing the 4th position, he is pulled out. Therefore, the task of commanding the defense naturally falls to An Jie.

After the Chinese team scored two points by relying on Anjie's low singles, they ushered in a defensive round again.

"Do you command the defense? No matter what qualifications you have, the championship is the most important thing." While guarding against Haddadi, An Jie had a clear view of the entire defensive situation from a low position. He has to shout it out, even if he is just a rookie who has not played more than ten games in the national team.

"Wang Shipeng! The left corner is empty!" When the players of the Iranian team started to run, a vacancy immediately appeared on the perimeter of the Chinese team.

Wang Shipeng didn't care who made the sound at all, he immediately made it to the left corner. Under Wang Shipeng's timely supplementary defense, Iranian striker Bahrami's shooting was seriously disturbed, and naturally he lost his aim.

Haddadi was stuck behind Anjie, but his desire for rebounds was extremely strong. Haddadi forcibly pushed An Jie away and jumped with all his strength. He pocketed the offensive rebound.

"Beep beep beep! Rebound foul, Iranian team number 15!" The referee whistled hurriedly, and Wang Zhizhi trotted over a few steps, pulling Angel up.

"Good job, let's play like this! You can just yell at them!" Wang Zhizhi patted An Jie's chest, and handed over the commanding power to An Jie himself in front of all the players of the Chinese team.

As the core, An Jie has been treated as the core by Wang Zhizhi. Anjie was the core of the Cyclones before, and Anjie also served as the core of the Thunder during the half month when Durant was injured. Facts have proved that he is really a good material to be the absolute core. Now, in the national team, An Jie has also been pushed to a core position by the locker room leader Wang Zhizhi.

"Zhu Fangyu! Don't defend yourself!"

"Big Zhi, make up the left side!"

"Hu Xuefeng! Watch out for pick-and-rolls!"

In the past, An Jie yelled Zhuge Wangge from the bottom, but on the court, for the sake of convenience, he always called him by his first name. But now, no one would think that An Jie was disrespectful, and no one would question his actions. Under An Jie's excellent defensive command and offense, at the end of the first quarter, the Chinese team just tied the 10-point difference.

21 to 21, the Chinese team not only reversed their decline and tied with Iran. An Jie also unknowingly became the absolute commander on the field.

Commanding and defending, in the national team, it is not impossible to learn everything.

At the beginning of the second quarter, An Jie was taken down by Guo Shiqiang, and Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi withstood the pressure from the inside line, allowing An Jie, who played the full quarter, to get some rest time.

Although Yi Jianlian is playing quite well, Haddadi is still very good at dealing with Yi Jianlian who is much shorter than himself.

In the second quarter, the Iranian team's outside shooting percentage began to decline, but the Chinese team failed to seize the opportunity to overtake the score. Instead, Haddadi caught too many offensive rebounds.

"Yi Jianlian is not in a good state today, oops! Haddadi caught the rebound again, Ah Lian should be stuck first like Anjie!" Fans and commentators watched anxiously, and Yi Jianlian himself was very unwilling.

When Anjie was off the field, Haddadi's threat on the offensive end soared again. The inside line is opened, and the outside players of the Iranian team have more shots.

The score that was finally recovered in the first quarter was gradually opened up again.

"An Jie! Get ready and you will play later! Listen, play resolutely in the low post, and I will let them all pass the ball to you!" Guo Shiqiang rejoiced in his heart, fortunately he chose to recruit An Jie into the team at the last moment Inside!

A chance of a dead ball, Wang Zhizhi, who was physically exhausted, went to rest, and the person who replaced him was the unstoppable An Jie!

Immediately, the audience burst into applause. Wang Zhizhi and An Jie clapped hands with trust in their eyes.

"Director Guo asked me to play the fifth position." After playing, An Jie changed positions with Yi Jianlian. An Jie continued to guard the inside and served as the center forward!

Although Yi Jianlian played one more year than Anjie, Anjie's performance is now more mature. As soon as he played, the effect immediately became apparent.

On the offensive end, he can score by himself, and he can also assist the UAE to make easy shots.

On the defensive end, under his reminder, there are fewer and fewer loopholes, and it is even more difficult for the Iranian team to score in the three-second zone.

Desperately fighting down, finally made up for what was just behind. 45 to 45, the two teams drew again. This year's Asian Championship final was much more intense than people imagined!

Anjie Anjie Anjie, the name that commentators and fans say most is Anjie. He is the core, he is the key. His performance directly affects the outcome of the game.

Both Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi performed well in the previous games, so the role of An Jie is not very obvious. But in this game, Anjie's value was fully demonstrated.

"Damn it! What else would he do besides sending that center forward!?" The Iranian team coach was flushed with anger when he saw Guo Shiqiang dispatching An Jie as soon as he came out in the second half. If he is present, it will be difficult for the Iranian team to establish a lead!

Three minutes into the second half, the Iranian coach realized he was wrong. It is not difficult for them to establish a lead, but it is difficult for them to equalize with the Chinese team!

"An Jie didn't lose a single goal in front of Haddadi! He scored 20 points on 8 of 8 shots!" He scored 20 points just at the beginning of the third quarter, and the Chinese team's offense basically relied on An Jie support.

Although Yi Jianlian was very active, he only scored a few open shots and strong shots at the basket. 4 of 11, this is obviously not the hit rate that a core insider should have.

After halfway through the third quarter, Guo Shiqiang made another substitution. People thought that An Jie was finally going to rest, but the player Wang Zhizhi replaced was actually Yi Jianlian! An Jie, stay on the field!

The head coach of the Iranian team only hopes that the point difference will not be stretched too much now. As long as Anjie is off the field, that is the chance for the Iranian team!

Five minutes, seven minutes, eight minutes, until the end of the third quarter, An Jie didn't leave the game!

"Damn it!" Beklovich couldn't imagine that Guo Shiqiang let An Jie fight again!

During the intermission, except for the two players Yi Jianlian and An Jie, the rest of the Chinese team was exhausted and out of breath. Although Angie played the entire third quarter, he looked more relaxed than the rested players.

"Rest for a few minutes in the fourth quarter, and go up to stabilize the situation at the last moment!" Guo Shiqiang didn't draw any tactics, but arranged An Jie's time first!

"Under Guo's guidance, you can do it without rest!" An Jie has always been a tireless player, and he is really not tired after several months of rest.

Seeing that Anjie was not present in the fourth quarter, Beklovic waved his hand and let Haddadi dig a hole in the interior. However, the tenacious style of Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi still did not allow Haddadi to succeed.

After persisting for four minutes, when the lead of the Chinese team became single digits again, An Jie was sent on the field again.

"Director Guo is about to close the game! Whether the Chinese team can win the championship depends on this final sprint!"

The tenacious Iran has been fighting against the Chinese team for so long and has not given up. They are perhaps the best team in this Asian Championships. It's a pity that the Chinese team has the best individuals.

"An Jie's nail-biting hat! He once again resolved the offensive of the Iranian team by himself! There are 30 seconds left in the game, and An Jie has been violated!"

The entire arena fell silent, because An Jie was standing on the free throw line at the moment.

Tap the ball, exhale, raise your hand, shoot. The basketball went into the net hollow, 88 to 77.

The second free throw, still repeating the action just now, the basketball bounced to the front of the basket, but still climbed in, 89 to 77.

After the attack, the Iranian team quickly asked for a three-pointer, but it was a pity that the ball was far too far. When Angie grabbed the rebound again, no one intentionally fouled him. The Iranian team gave up, and the tenacious Iran finally gave up.

"Friends from the audience! We are the champions!" With 24 seconds left in the game, Yu Jia couldn't wait to announce the victory of the Chinese team.

An Jie personally controlled the ball and pushed it to the frontcourt. No one disturbed him, no one would steal it. Some Iranian players even went to the sidelines.

This match was won by An Jie. This championship belongs to China and also to Anjie.

When the number on the timer became zero, Anjie threw the basketball in his hand into the air. The Chinese players on the bench rushed forward and lifted up the 20-year-old rookie.

"We won! We won Xiao An!" Wang Zhizhi was like a child at the moment, throwing An Jie high with the others.

"We are the champions!" An Jie, who was thrown into the air, excitedly shouted these simple but heavy five words. To be continued.
