The Way of the Center

Kevin Love was actually at a slight disadvantage in the confrontation with Anjie just now, but because of UCLA's big lead, he didn't pay much attention to this issue. But when he set foot on the basketball court again, everything changed.

No pick-and-rolls, no runs, no dribbles. Mike Taylor handed the ball to Ainger just after halftime, and the Cyclones pulled away.

"Putting out the singles! The Cyclone team actually used the singles tactic!" Paul Philips looked at the changes on the field in disbelief. The Cyclones have never used this kind of tactic in the whole season, Ricard What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?

"Let this kid play singles with me? Stop looking down on people!" Love put on a posture and decided to use actions to prove that the Cyclone team chose a wrong tactic.

An Jie held the ball facing the frame and made a fake shot, but Love was unmoved. Afterwards, An Jie lowered his shoulders and was about to break through. He first stepped out with his right leg.

"It's so simple and you want to break through?" Love blocked An Jie's breakthrough route with a lateral step. An Jie took off against the huge resistance, and his whole body lost his balance. The high one was thrown towards the basket.

"Beep! Defensive foul!"

Fortunately, the ball was not scored, otherwise the price of Love's foul would be too great.

After hearing the referee's verdict, Love spread out his hands, indicating that he didn't exert any strength at all just now. He knew that it was impossible for the referee to change the verdict, and he just used this to put pressure on the referee.

Two free throws were made, both of which were hollow into the net. Anjie's first tactical execution was effective, but the UCLA players hadn't seen any clues yet.

Westbrook originally planned to continue to break through with the ball, but he saw Kevin Love desperately getting to the position, and then raised his hand to ask for the ball.

"This guy, do you want to play back?" This season, Westbrook and Kevin Love can be said to have cooperated very happily. He didn't want to destroy the atmosphere in the team, but he obediently handed over the ball to the current offensive desire. Intense love hands.

Love, seeing this loving name, if you think Love is a gentle boy, then you are very wrong.

When Kevin Love first started playing basketball, he practiced the position of shooting guard. Unexpectedly, his height soared after he entered high school, making him an insider. Despite his size, the defender's skills he learned before have not been wasted. Love's shooting speed is still the same as that of a small guard. As an inside player, he can even step back and make a jumper from the three-point line.

Therefore, after receiving the ball with his back to Anjie, Love did not go to the basket. Instead, he took a step back and prepared to shoot directly.

An Jie struggled to take off, most of the advantage of high release point in the inside didn't work for An Jie, and Ke Lefu's way of avoiding the block happened to be the quick release.

Love, who is flexible and full of tension, has a very soft and stretched posture in the air. Such a close-range shot is easy for Kevin Love.

"Kevin~~~~Love!" As the basketball entered the net, the on-site announcer also shouted out Love's name. The UCLA fans were even happier when they saw the goal. Regardless of the state of Collison and Mbah a Moute today, at least now we have Westbrook and Kevin Love.

An Jie just didn't expect that Love would choose to go out directly, and his quick shot really caught An Jie by surprise. But if Love dares to use exactly the same trick next time, An Jie is confident that he can definitely block the basketball.

But it's useless to think in my heart, and Love's success in scoring points is a fact on the court. Kevin Love is full of confidence now, and his vigilance against An Jie is slowly relaxing.

In the second round of offense between the two sides, An Jie still held the ball facing the frame. After reading countless materials and videos of Le Fu, An Jie knew the shortcoming of Le Fu's slow moving speed,

So choosing a face frame breakthrough is undoubtedly the best way. Different from An Jie's balanced upper and lower body strength, although Le Fu's upper body strength is not as good as An Jie's, his lower body strength is amazing. Therefore, if An Jie always chooses to play in the low position, then he will only be the one who suffers.

Facts have proved that An Jie's choice is correct. Love, who has weak upper body strength and slow steps, was fouled by An Jie's breakthrough.

Ben Holland, the head coach of UCLA, has already seen some tricks. It is indeed a good idea to let Anjie and Love play singles twice in a row, but do you think this can stop the mighty UCLA? joke! Anyway, now that UCLA is still leading, Holland simply let the situation develop.

After An Jie saw how good Love's shooting was, he didn't dare to leave him a single step of space, even if Love was outside the three-point line. Thinking about previous games, Koufos is really not a tall shooter compared to Love.

This time, UCLA's offensive point was changed to Cameroon's Prince Mbah a Moute. With Collison's pick-and-roll, he finally got rid of Anthony Ben, who was like brown sugar, and cut to the penalty area.

Asakin defended to the basket, but Mbah a Moute didn't mean to slow down at all.

"Asakin? As long as the Chinese is not inside!" Ba Mote jumped directly at Asakin. As long as Anjie is not there, the restricted area is no different from being empty to him.

Mbah a Moute took off and grabbed the ball. Even if the ball missed, it was still possible to make a foul.

Just when Mbah a Moute was still imagining that he could dunk Asakin, he was knocked out by a sudden huge thrust. This feeling is like being hit by a big truck that suddenly appeared when crossing the road in the early morning.

"Defensive foul, No. 2, An Jie!" The referee didn't show favoritism at all. An Jie's foul was so obvious, it could even be said to be rude.

Ba Moute supported his aching waist, while the Chinese stared at him angrily.

"Don't look down on people!" An Jie said silently in his heart.

"Say it! Say it!" Divac muttered off the court, and he emphasized the importance of deterrence to Anjie more than once. Vicious words are also a kind of weapon. Appropriate words to prevent the other party from attacking can greatly disturb the other party's emotions.

But An Jie was not used to talking trash on the basketball court, he rushed back to the penalty area to defend the basket, and responded with a fierce attitude as required, but he still couldn't speak.

It stands to reason that a player's personality and style on the court cannot be changed by others. Some are emotional, some are calm, some are irritable, and some are fierce. In the past, Anjie's impression on the field was undoubtedly calm. It is really rare to see such a fierce defense like today.

Now that his team fell behind by a large margin, and his opponent dared to do evil to his teammates without even looking at it, something in An Jie's heart seemed to be stimulated. Anjie himself is a player who likes defense more than offense, especially the defense of the penalty area. Coupled with Divac's constant instigation, this made An Jie make the action just now.

Sure enough, Mbah a Moute, who was affected by emotions, missed the first free throw. According to NCAA rules, the players can grab rebounds after the first missed free throw. An Jie supported Kevin Love with his hands, jumped high and took off the rebound.

"What are you doing!" Love was very dissatisfied with An Jie's increasingly rough actions, but it did not constitute a foul. Reluctantly, he could only bury his anger in his heart, and ran back to his own half with aggrieved feelings.

Starting from An Jie's defense, the smell of gunpowder between the two sides became stronger and stronger.

Love became tougher when attacking, constantly fighting Anjie in the paint.

Seeing Love's impact on Anjie more and more violently, Divac, who was sitting off the court, laughed.

When Kevin Love turned towards the basket and was about to force a breakthrough, Anjie's subtle steps allowed him to completely expose his chest on the impact route.

When Le Fu turned around, his elbow just touched An Jie's chest, and the opportunity was at this moment! After An Jie was hit, he fell backwards violently, and Love took this opportunity to make an empty basket.

"The goal is invalid! Offensive foul!" Love was preparing to high-five Westbrook to celebrate, but heard the referee's incredible verdict.

After falling to the ground, An Jie rubbed his chest in pain, Asakin went to pull An Jie to get up. Everyone was deceived. Except for Kevin Love, only Divac and An Jie knew what happened.

After several rounds of fighting, An Jie has almost mastered Love's turning habit, and the upward angle of his elbow has been observed many times by An Jie. After mastering these, it is easy to make Love a foul.

It's not the first time Anjie used flops in a game, and DeAndre Jordan was the first victim. However, if he wants to win against a strong enemy today, An Jie must use all means. The potential of the devil completely spread in An Jie's body at this moment.

"This kid, learning how to flop is getting better and better." Morris looked at the picture on TV and remembered the days when Divac taught them.

Love, who is a clean player, now hates the Chinese in front of him more and more. What kind of skill is it to use such indiscriminate tricks when the team is not strong enough! ?

But anyway, the Cyclones still got the ball.

This time Bamoot couldn't stand it anymore. The Chinese had humiliated himself so much just now, and now he had to do something to pay back.

When the Cyclones pulled away, Mbah a Moute left without authorization, leaving Anthony Benn ready to double-team Anjie with Love.

"Go back to your position!" Ben Howland yelled from the sidelines of the court, but Mbah a Moute turned a deaf ear to it, and his emotions had already controlled his actions.

"Angie was double-teamed, but Coach Holland seems very dissatisfied with the defense. Could it be his arrangement? Anthony Ben cut inside! Let's see if Anjie can pass the ball!"

An Jie raised the basketball with both hands, shaking his upper body non-stop. Suddenly he threw the ball behind his head, and Love and Mbah a Moute thought that An Jie made a mistake because he was facing a double team.

As a result, Anthony Ben rushed to catch the ball that An Jie threw back. Now that the penalty area is so empty, it's time for the Cyclones' strongest dunker to perform again.

"An Jie! Great pass! Yao Ming! This ball reminds me of Yao Ming! Although the position of the pass is different, but the effect is the same amazing!" The ESPN commentator was full of passion, which reminded him of Yao Ming's rookie season Those two amazing Chinese big men who remember passing the ball behind their heads and assisting. After replicating Yao Ming's pass, can Anjie replicate Yao Ming's success?

The UCLA team song in the stands came to an abrupt end, while the cheers of the Cyclones fans became louder and louder.

"Angie bless Iowa State! Aj bless Iowa State!" the fans chanted over and over again. They loved him.

UCLA now knows why Stanford was eliminated in the first round, it was not an easy fight, never was!

It's March Madness, so let's make the game crazy!
