The Way of the Center

"Wade! Can you tell me how you feel!?"

"The team that scored 28 points still lost! Who do you think should be responsible for the loss?"

"Did Michael Beasley's performance not meet your expectations? Is his task of sharing the offensive pressure today considered qualified?"

Although the Thunder was the winner, more than half of the reporters rushed to Wade. All of them remember the look in Wade's eyes when he was replaced, the unwillingness. If you can hear words like "I want to transfer" from Wade's mouth, it will definitely make the whole circle explode.

It's a pity that in the Heat, besides Haslem, another person who represents loyalty may be Wade.

"I was very embarrassed by the Thunder's defensive system today. If I can figure out a way to break their defense, I don't think we will lose." In the end, "The Flash" still took the responsibility for the loss on himself Take it, even if he is already the best player on the Heat.

"He is one of my idols. You don't need to ask me how he is doing. Everyone has seen it." An Jie showed great respect for Wade who fought to the end when he was interviewed by reporters.

"When the team lost two games in a row, Michael Beasley once said that the Thunder team was vulnerable. You performed well today, did you feel stimulated by this sentence?" Beasley must be in pain now, although he There are 21 points in the account, and the shooting percentage is not bad, but his team lost by nearly 20 points, which is undoubtedly very different from the development of his remarks.

"Really? I don't know what he said at all. To win today, I have to thank Coach Jeff Van Gundy. Well, I have to leave, thank you for your support." If An Jie doesn't take the initiative to leave, God knows How many more questions will these reporters ask.

The joy of victory eliminated the tiredness of the Thunder's continuous running. Anjie scored 24 points and 9 rebounds, Durant scored 36 points, Morris scored 14 points, Ibaka and Livingston scored 8 points each. Everyone had fun, everyone was able to perform.

Back to back? Not tired at all, because we are here to win, no one thinks winning is a chore.

Sure enough, on the second day, although the Thunder played back-to-back games, they were in good condition and won in Atlanta as they wished.

Joe Johnson and Josh Smith resisted fiercely, and indeed caused a lot of trouble for the Thunder, but unfortunately, in the end, they were still defeated by only three points.

94 to 91, the Thunder won two consecutive victories away. Although Anjie scored only 18 points in this campaign, he scored 13 rebounds on Al Horford's head.

In rebounding, the gap between him and the top two has narrowed again.

The Thunder are on the right track again, and now, no one dares to say "the Thunder are vulnerable." If you still underestimate these two young men in their twenties, then wait for a brutal bloodbath.

"Catherine, are you ready?" A middle-aged woman whispered next to Catherine. Although this woman is not young, she is very well maintained. Both in figure and skin, she looked no different from the young Catherine.

Catherine didn't answer, but nodded silently. With two more models ahead, it was her turn to take the stage.

"Come on, don't be nervous, you are definitely the best in this batch of interns." As soon as the middle-aged woman finished speaking, Catherine strutted onto the stage.

This is IMG's last assessment of interns. This assessment will determine who can stay and become a contracted model under the company. Maybe those well-known stars can sign directly without facing this link, but for most ordinary girls who want to change their destiny, competition is inevitable.

Catherine is also considered a half-public figure. The reason why she was discovered by IMG's scouts is because of her amazing appearance in public. But for everyone in the fashion industry, the sports circle is so strange. Are you An Jie's girlfriend? Oh, who is Anjie? The diving one?

But when Catherine walked onto the runway wearing a black slim dress, the eyes of the judges below instantly brightened. Temperament, face, pace, figure... This blond-haired girl with a mixed-race advantage seems to be born to be a model!

Eddie Brown, photographer for IMG. In a modeling agency, the cooperation between models and photographers is inseparable. On the basketball court, it is equivalent to the relationship between players and coaches. As soon as Catherine appeared on the stage, the photographer with thick black-rimmed glasses and a stubbled face was stunned.

Beautiful, glamorous, proud...Brown used all the beautiful adjectives he could think of on Catherine. Such a new girl, maybe, has a chance...

The assessment ended soon, and Catherine was fidgeting in the background. After so many months of hard work, if it falls short in the end, it will be a great blow to her.

"Don't worry, Catherine, I can see the joyful expressions of the judges. They all seem to have dug up a treasure, and your stunning appearance has already made them all speechless." The middle-aged woman had been decompressing Catherine, she It is Catherine's mentor. As a retired model, continuing to deliver talents to the company has become their top priority.

"Catherine Watson and Miss Susan Margaret, please come to the front." A staff member shouted in the background, and Catherine knew that she had succeeded!

"You are really good. If possible, we will sign the contract with you within a week. If you don't have a manager yet, we suggest you find one as soon as possible. After all, it is better for the contract to be checked by professionals." The judges changed The haughty expressions just now, all smiling, became much more cordial.

"Congratulations Catherine, you are about to become a professional model." Photographer Eddie Brown also walked over to shake hands with Catherine. He is one of the most senior photographers in IMG, and he can be regarded as a person with a reputation.

On the surface, the photographer was very friendly, but Margaret, who was also quite experienced, could tell that something was wrong with the way the photographer looked at Catherine...

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

An Jie was in a good mood when he learned that Catherine had passed the assessment, so on the night after the victory over the Eagles, An Jie invited all his teammates to have a meal, and all members of the Thunder also sent blessings to Catherine in the form of photos.

"I don't know much about the fashion industry, but I have a few friends who are managers in the fashion industry." To say that Moslav has a wide network of contacts, with his help, Catherine quickly found a manager. What reassures An Jie is that this manager is also a woman.

In the fashion and entertainment circles, it is common for managers to have relationships with their clients. Even in the sports circle, Li Na also got together with her coach Jiang Shan.

The team is in good condition, the atmosphere in the team is perfect, and Catherine passed the assessment. This good thing makes Anjie's performance on the basketball court even better.

After defeating the Eagles, the Thunder defeated the Timberwolves and Grizzlies in consecutive away games.

In the battle with the Timberwolves, Anjie's old rival and Westbrook's old teammate Kevin Love was absent due to injury, so the game was much less interesting.

However, last season the Thunder started shooting guard, and now Timberwolves starting shooting guard Damien Wilkins has performed well. He scored 15 points and 6 assists, and his shooting percentage was as high as 75%.

It's a pity that the Thunder's three young masters are already stronger than last season. The Timberwolves performed very well throughout the game, but in the last minute, they still failed to withstand the pressure.

Anjie's block made Al Jefferson miss a shot and the Timberwolves lost the chance to tie the game.

94 to 92, the Thunder won three consecutive victories away!

When it comes to the Grizzlies, one has to mention Marc Gasol. 15 points and 13 rebounds, as a second-round pick, Gasol's data is commendable.

But Rudy Gay, O.J Mayo, Mike Conley and James Harden formed a bloated perimeter, which made the Grizzlies' offense a mess.

According to Barkley, the two goals are not enough for the Grizzlies to score from outside.

Although Gasol performed well, they still couldn't escape the fate of failure under the self-disruption of the Grizzlies' outside players.

94 to 86, the Thunder's third young master captured the Grizzlies alive again, winning another four-game winning streak.

Anjie's performance in these two games is still eye-catching, and his condition seems to be getting better and better. 23 points and 14 rebounds against the Hawks, although only 8 rebounds were recorded against the Grizzlies under the interference of Gasol Jr., but the 25 points were 10 points higher than Gasol. It is clear at a glance which is better and which is worse.

"The Grizzlies have so many outside players, they are simply seeking their own death." This is the comment of most experts on the Grizzlies after the game. Talent, the more you accumulate, the better. The success of Thunder Three Young Masters is not so easy to replicate.

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

This season "Shark" O'Neal is not going well. In the summer, he transferred to the Cavaliers in the east. It's a pity that years have slapped O'Neal mercilessly this season.

If O'Neal's performance in the Suns last season was called "return to the light", then this season, O'Neal was beaten back to his original shape.

Although joining the Cavaliers is heavy, O'Neal's performance is not satisfactory.

Averaged 12 points and 6 rebounds per game, this is by no means a result that the second leader of a team that aims at a championship should show.

James needed space to attack, and O'Neal had to get out of the paint. O'Neal withdraws from the three-second zone, does he have any chance to perform?

O'Neill didn't question it in the unexpected world, one game is one game, maybe he should really consider retiring.

But today, someone other than James discovered that O'Neill, the big brother, was very active in training, which made the "Brazilian actor" Varejao miserable.

Because the next day, the Cavaliers will face the Thunder. But O'Neill doesn't allow himself to make a fool of himself in front of An Jie.

"Let's have a good time in the playoffs next season!" This is what O'Neal said to Angie at the end of the last regular season last season.

Now that Anjie's performance is getting better and better, O'Neal must do something to respond. (To be continued.)
