The Way of the Center
Chapter 25: To You, Morris
During the halftime break, the head coach of Ohio State University made many deployments against Anger in the locker room, but Koufus didn't listen to a word. In his opinion, it is completely futile for the coach to say so much. Only after confronting him on the court will you know how terrifying the oppression is.
"Hey Costa, are you listening!?" The head coach caught Koufos's blank stare. The player's biggest problem does not come from the court, but from his own heart. When the team encountered difficulties in the middle of the season, instead of standing up to save the team, Koufos played worse and worse with the team. As a Greek, Koufus came to the United States where there are many strong players, and he has always lacked enough confidence in his heart. Even though he had such excellent results in high school, he still did not trust his ability in college. When the team can win, he will regain some confidence and perform well, but when the team encounters difficulties, he will start to doubt. If a player starts to doubt his ability, then he will have nothing on the court. Dare to do it. Now Koufos has returned to the state of lack of confidence after fighting Anjie for half a game. Koufos is Ohio State University's greatest confidence in winning, but now it seems that their confidence has been torn apart by that Chinese kid.
"Hey." The head coach of Ohio State University can only sigh helplessly. These student players must be a student first, and players second. They are still children. Not all children can have a strong heart. of.
"In the second half, I want you to settle the battle within ten minutes! We don't need to fight them any longer! We have more important games to fight!" Ricard knew that Anjie had not only defeated Coover As a person, the rest of the Orange Cowboys must have been somewhat affected mentally. In the next game, the University of Kansas, which is ranked No. 1 in the league, will be his opponent. Rickard no longer wants to waste too much physical strength of the main players in this game.
Usually Rickard would tell everyone that we slowed down, played positions slowly, and grinded against them slowly. But today, Ricard actually waved his hand so that they could take down their opponents within ten minutes. The players were all gearing up, eager for the game to start quickly.
Fanatical fans all returned to their seats, waiting for the players from both sides to enter the field. A team that only won five games last year, now they have only lost four games this season, ranking second in the league. The emotions that the fans have suppressed for many years have exploded this season. Every team that comes to Ames City to play an away game will be shocked by the atmosphere of this devil's stadium. As long as the away player makes a slight mistake on the field, the overwhelming jeers and boos will rush into his ears. As soon as Koufos came out of the player tunnel, he felt that his nerves were about to collapse.
"Go back to your homeland, Greeks!"
"Anjie will continue to kick your ass in the second half!"
"Go home and ask mom for a pacifier!"
For all the offenders, the fans will not have any mercy for them. Fans don't hate Koufos, they don't hate Ohio State University, they just want their team to win.
Most stateside players are not affected by this kind of abuse, they have long been used to it. Although An Jie was not used to it at first, after more than ten games, he could calmly face the words of the fans. Only Kufos, what he is most afraid of is playing away games, his fragile nerves just can't adapt to such stimulation. In this game, whether on or off the court, Koufus was tortured inside. Now he has no intention of fighting at all, he just wants to get out of this ghost place as soon as possible.
"Costa! Brace yourselves! You can beat that guy! You've been doing well!" The pallid encouragement of the Ohio State head coach didn't make Koufos feel any better.
It was impossible for Koufos to just hide in the locker room like this, so he had to bite the bullet and play.
In the second half, it wasn't just Koufos who couldn't start the situation in the penalty area alone. Other Ohio State University players also tasted the taste of the hot pot sent by Anjie. Every time they think they have made a successful breakthrough, they will hear a crisp sound of hitting the ball after the shot. The basket guarded by An Jie has obviously become a no-fly zone, and no one is allowed to pass.
And what about Koufus? He got a few shots in the second half, but his confidence was shattered and he couldn't make the ball.
"It would be great if this guy participated in the draft." Countless scouts in the auditorium expressed such emotion to An Jie in their hearts.
When the opponent had no power to fight back, An Jie's heart finally calmed down. Morris's gift will definitely be given out, and he can't believe that he will become so bloodthirsty in the first half. That might be cruel to Koufos and his team, but for a winner there must also be a victim. This is not a football league. There is still a possibility for the two sides to shake hands and make peace. There is no draw on the basketball court. If you don’t want to lose, you must win.
Anjie blocked the shot or grabbed a rebound, the Cyclones launched a counterattack, scored, and the Cyclones returned to defense. Throughout the first ten minutes of the second half, the game continued in this way, repeated again and again. As the clock ticked, so did Ohio State's hopes. The high tower under the Cyclones basket is so desperate, the whole situation is under the control of that high tower.
Ten minutes later, the Cyclones had extended their lead to twenty points. Ricard made adjustments to the lineup. He wanted to take down all the main players. The game had ended early.
"Taylor, let's start." An Jie saw his teammates who were about to come off the bench, and he knew that the victory was firmly in the hands of the Cyclones. He did so much today just for this moment.
"I hope he can see it." Taylor nodded to An Jie.
Then An Jie took off his jersey before leaving the field. To everyone's surprise, An Jie still had a jersey on his body after taking off his jersey! Moreover, this jersey does not belong to him. On the front and back of the jersey is a large number, 32. This is Morris' number. Looking at the name on the back of the jersey, everyone confirmed that this is Morris' jersey.
"What the hell, kid!?" Morris stared wide-eyed in the ward. An Jie actually played the whole game in his own jersey?
With his back to the auditorium, Anjie kept pointing to the name on the back of the jersey with his hands facing back. This is a common celebration gesture in the stadium, which means to let everyone remember himself and the man who changed the game. people. But today, An Jie didn't refer to his own name when he did this gesture.
At the same time, Mike Taylor also took off his jersey, revealing the white lined vest he was wearing inside. Words were written in black marker on a white tank top, and the entire gym focused on Taylor's tank top.
"You are still fighting with me on the court, big bull." There is only such a simple sentence written on Taylor's vest, but it can be thought of that Anjie played the entire game wearing Morris' jersey. The meaning is self-evident. You are injured and can't play, then let me continue to fight on the court for you!
"You bastards..." Morris clearly watched his team win, but somehow his eyes got wet.
Immediately, almost all the fans stood up and applauded non-stop.
"Morris, Morris, Morris, Morris..." The fans kept shouting Morris' name when Anjie walked off the court, as if the person who just played a wonderful performance on the court was not An Jie. Jay is the same as Morris.
Ricard did not expect Anjie and Taylor to make such a move. He is really very lucky to be able to coach a group of such players.
"That's what you two are doing in a sneaky way? I said An Jie, I should wear the Bulls' jersey for the next game!" Anthony Ben was also infected by the actions of the two.
"Dedicated to you Morris, we are still the best inside partner in this league." An Jie said these words loudly to the cameras and reporters surrounding him.
"Don't think you can please me like this, you bastard." Morris knew that An Jie couldn't hear his voice, but he still responded to the TV screen. After finishing speaking, two lines of hot tears slid down Morris' cheeks.
"The most outstanding potential of a great star is to make the teammates around him better." Watching Anjie's actions, Divac suddenly remembered the words Jordan once said. Maybe he was quiet in the locker room, maybe he wasn't as good a leader as Taylor. However, Anjie can use his own actions to turn a group of people into a team. He helped Morris complete Ricard's punishment before, which was a beginning.
"You are the type of player that all teams are eager to get." Divac is also full of respect for this young guy in his heart.
When one man works hard, we all work hard. We are the Iowa State University Cyclones.
