The Way of the Center

"Courtney Lee's performance is really great, George Karl must be praying now, praying that Jamal Crawford will not also play crazy performance. Ω 』Δ E novel Ww*W." 1XIAOSHUO.COM If even the Sixth Man of the Year goes crazy, the Nuggets won't be able to play."

Fortunately, the commentator's words did not come true. In the first half of the second quarter, Jamal Crawford's performance was very average. But this doesn't make George Karl breathe a sigh of relief, because Anjie and Aldridge are about to debut.

In the short period of time at the beginning of the second quarter, Ricard decided to let Anjie, Aldridge and others rest first. Courtney Lee was able to open the score, something Ricard hadn't thought of before. So he planned to take this opportunity to let his two yuan generals rest for a few minutes.

In this shortened season with a very dense schedule, every minute of rest is precious to Ricard and his players.

During the period when Anjie and Aldridge were not on the court, the Nuggets were about to rise. But now, with these two on the court, whether the Nuggets can continue to move forward is another matter.

Costa Koufos took advantage of the absence of Anjie to score a lot of points. Although Marcus Camby has rich experience, his footsteps have been too slow to compete with Koufos. Koufos took advantage of his greater mobility, insisted on repeatedly running out of open space, and got a lot of shooting opportunities.

Koufos's shooting level is no worse than Anjie's, and his shooting range is even longer than Anjie's, able to extend beyond the three-point line. But when Anjie played, Koufus immediately lost confidence in his offense. He didn't forget how painful he was in the first half of the first quarter.

"This guy's defense is really good. Dwight Howard has won the best defensive player for three consecutive seasons. But I think that if Ankang finishes this season, the award may change hands." While watching the game, Rice chatted with Burke. Of course, their topics hardly left Anjie.

Koufos had a mobility advantage against Marcus Camby, but it turned into a disadvantage when he matched up with Ainger. An Jie's body modification is not just about making him stronger, the improvement of mobility is also a major focus of his progress.

Anjie's speed was not inferior to Koufus before, and now, it is even worse.

Koufos ran beyond the three-point line and received a pass from Ty Lawson. Seeing that Anjie was still some distance away from him, Koufos seized the opportunity and hurriedly shot. Under An Jie's marking, let alone a goal, even a shot has to race against time!

But the shortcoming of Koufos's slow shooting is now holding him back. If it is replaced by other inside players to defend him, this ball might really be scored by him.

It's a pity that he is now facing An Jie who is faster and has a larger defensive range.

As soon as the basketball was pushed out by Koufos, it immediately met An Jie's slapping palm! The basketball was slammed and flew straight into the auditorium. This season, in the Rose Garden, images of basketballs being slapped into the audience have often appeared. And the creator of all this picture is An Jie!

"Volleyball cap! Costa Koufos can no longer score at this point. If he dares to shoot again, Anjie will definitely not be polite!" Almost all TV commentators yelled, blocking blocks as excited as dunks People's hearts, and Anjie's block is equivalent to a 10-point dunk.

Kufos suddenly remembered the first time he and Anjie met, the confrontation between the two in the ncaa arena. The block this time is almost a replica of the shot An Jie blocked him in college! Four years have passed, and Koufus found that the distance between himself and An Jie has not narrowed, but has become farther and farther...

Then the rhythm of the game was completely controlled by Anjie and Aldridge. Aldridge once again became a precise "mid-range shooting machine" today. Subsequently, Rickard replaced Gerald Wallace, who performed poorly outside the three-point line, ahead of time, and Courtney Lee took over the position of Elvis Presley.

Seeing Courtney Lee, An Jie and Aldridge present at the same time, George Karl felt a sudden pain in his heart. One of these three people alone today is enough for the Nuggets to drink a pot. But now, they are present at the same time!

"Hey, I told you, we're going to double the win today!" Seeing Courtney Lee walking up, An Jie winked at him. Courtney Lee didn't respond, but gave An Jie a high-five with a smirk on his face. Poor Denver, poor old George Karl. Now, who knows what they will go through!

Anjie did not directly wrestle with Koufos in the interior this time. He confronted Koufos with the ball one step behind the free throw line. Koufus didn't dare to move at all. He knew that Anjie's passing skills were excellent, but his breakthrough level was also not bad.

Not to mention letting An Jie, a tall man of 2.19 meters, hold the ball and break through the defense of outside players, but at least compared with inside players, An Jie's breakthrough is very fatal. His strong frame and variable footwork usually overwhelm many big men like him.

But this time, An Jie did nothing. He didn't send any subtle passes, nor did he play a beautiful breakthrough attack. Anjie just hit the ground and passed the ball lightly, and Aldridge, who was in a back-up state, received the ball.

Don't look at Aldridge as an insider who likes to shoot, this guy is very good at attacking with his back to the basket. Now the situation has changed, with Anjie in the mid-range and Aldridge in the low post.

Ricard's arrangement is purposeful. If Aldridge can't play, he can pass back to Anjie, and Anjie will be the transfer station. He can choose to pass the ball or come by himself. Very good at it.

Sure enough, Aldridge pushed two steps in, but found that the Brazilian Nene was extremely tenacious today. Aldridge's advance effect was negligible. Seeing this situation, Aldridge gave the basketball to Anjie again with a hook action.

An Jie had just received the ball and before he stopped, he sent the ball again. In the process of basketball's rapid transmission, the Nuggets' defense was also torn. Courtney Lee rushed to catch the ball and shoot it. Koufus actively blocked the position, and Nene also blocked Morris from the three-second zone. However, this hasty three-pointer shot was hollow again. Although Anjie's passing was fast, it was just right for Courtney Lee. With rhythm, it's not that hard to make shots.

"Seriously, Burke, how long has it been since you've seen such an all-around center. This should be what a traditional center looks like. The group of big men in the league who only have bodies but no skills should really reflect on themselves. Seeing An Jie's performance, Les couldn't help sighing. He couldn't imagine how embarrassing the center position would be if he lost another Anjie in this league that lacked Yao Ming and O'Neal.

Fortunately, there is at least one An Jie, who has been guarding the glory of the center.

Under the cooperation of Anjie, Aldridge and Courtney Lee, the second quarter ended quickly. 50 to 59, the point difference has been widened a little. But for the Nuggets, it was a blessing in misfortune not to be led by double digits at halftime.

George Karl roared in the locker room, but for the current Nuggets without a star, the gap in hard power cannot be filled by his old Karl with a few words.

As soon as the Nuggets players with the mission of chasing points came on the court, the remaining enthusiasm in their hearts was extinguished by Courtney Lee's "three-point rain".

"Unbelievable shooting. How many three-pointers has Courtney Lee made today? Four out of six! My God, the signing of the Trail Blazers was so wise!"

The role of Courtney Lee's superb role was fully demonstrated in this game. If he can stand up, the burden on Anjie and Aldridge will be much lighter.

The morale of the Nuggets was shattered, and their shooting percentage, which was not bad, began to decline. Even George Karl couldn't stop all this from happening.

As a result of this situation, An Jie's rebounding numbers increased very rapidly.

In the second half of the third quarter, Italian small forward Danilo Gallinari of the Nuggets got an open shot. Ricard wanted to shout loudly to reprimand the players defending Gallinari, but he didn't know that Gallinari was a shooter. But failed to make this open shot.

Angie picked up the rebound with ease, and he didn't even need much of the positioning skills that Divac taught him to grab the rebound in front of Koufos.

When An Jie took off the rebound, the statistics of An Jie's game were suddenly displayed at the bottom of the TV screen.

"My God! Andu has already grabbed 13 rebounds!? Unknowingly, Andu has grabbed so many rebounds. You know, the third quarter is not over yet!" Mike. Brin looked up the data in disbelief. That's right, it was true that Anjie grabbed 13 rebounds with four minutes left in the third quarter!

So far, the Nuggets have only had two offensive rebounds. With this calculation, we can know where An Jie's rebounds come from. It is precisely because of Anjie that the Nuggets have almost no chance of a second offense. As long as the goal is not scored, it will only come again in the next round.

Moslav looked at the surprised expressions of the two Nike executives with satisfaction. Due to the continuous accumulation of experience, Anjie is now able to judge the rebounding point very well. Will be a horrible rebounder, which is not an accident at all.

His hard work every night and hard work in every game has made Anjie rewarded. This season, it's just a new season!

"Let me tell you Burke, if I can go back, I really hope to sign with Ann for ten years!" The white man shook his head. He hadn't seen such a dominant center for some years.

In the third quarter, the Nuggets were defeated. The Trail Blazers once again completed the achievement of "clocking out of get off work" in just three quarters in the Rose Garden.

In the fourth quarter, Courtney Lee, who got a lot of chances to play, shot three-pointers like crazy, and the basketball also went crazy like crazy to drill into the hoop.

5 notes, 6 notes, 7 notes... 9 notes! When Courtney Lee was replaced by Ricard, he had just made his ninth three-pointer of the game!

9 out of 15, the hit rate is 60%. Don't get me wrong, this is not Courtney Lee's total shooting percentage in this game, but his three-point shooting percentage in this game! With 33 points, Courtney Lee walked off the court with the highest score in the game!

In the past, the Trail Blazers had one Jamal Crawford, which was enough to scare other teams. Now, they have an extra Courtney Lee on the bench who is crazy and completely unstoppable.

George Karl's face was expressionless, and Ricard sent Anjie and Aldridge on the field again. The Nuggets want to complete the counterattack, there is only a theoretical possibility.

It's a pity that Anjie and Aldridge completely blocked this theoretical possibility. The two bad guys didn't stop there just because the Blazers had a 15-point lead. They continued to attack the Nuggets head-on, and the more than 20,000 fans in the Rose Garden were hooked.

"Mr. Meslav, if possible, we will formally sign a contract with Mr. An tomorrow!" Seeing that the match was completely over, the two executives of Nike stood up from the sand and prepared to leave.

"We will be able to cooperate very happily." Moslav smiled proudly. Now he is not going to beg others, but others are coming to him! An Jie has become a hot commodity. And the only person who can decide the direction of Anjie's business activities is him, Meslav!

At the end of the game, Moslav glanced out the window of the private room. On the court, the fans were beating wildly, while the Blazers players gathered together to celebrate another easy win.

It's different, Anjie now looks like a superstar. Rose won the mVp, Durant won the scoring title in a row, and Westbrook's explosive performance impressed the fans. It can be said that An Jie has never been considered the best among his peers.

Now, it's time to explode! Victory after competition is the basis of all these achievements!

97 to 117, after an upset loss to the Kings. The Blazers took another step forward. An Jie was right, they just took a nap before...
