The Way of the Center
Chapter 461: Veteran
The continuous away games did not make everyone in the Trail Blazers and Spike Lee feel tired. After all, victory is never too much.
After An Jie and Catherine finished talking on the phone, they slowly walked towards the team bus. This has been a habit that An Jie has developed over the years. Every time he goes to a new place, he will definitely report to Catherine that he is safe.
As the bus drove in Boston, the capital city of Massachusetts, An Jie could clearly feel that the basketball atmosphere in this city was not as good as it was back then.
In 2008, under the leadership of coach Doug Rivers, the ancient Green Corps returned to the highest throne in the NBA after a lapse of 22 years. The Celtics' Big Three are also the beginning of the league's Big Three model.
During that time, Boston's glory continued, and the Celtics' edge deterred the entire league. However, all of this was wiped out with the fact that Ray Allen left the Heat this summer.
The end of the era of the Big Three represents the complete sinking of the Green Legion. Although Garnett and Pierce are still staying here, but relying on these two old guys, what big waves can the Celtics make?
Looking at the huge posters that were torn off one by one, looking at the few people wearing Celtics shirts on the street. An Jie seemed to be able to feel the wailing of the city and the heavy heart of the Green Shirts. It's a pity that he didn't come here to bring hope to the Celtics. On the contrary, his purpose of coming here is to make Boston worse.
"Ann, what are you thinking?" If Aldridge hadn't nudged An Jie with his elbow, An Jie would not have noticed that they had arrived at the hotel where they were staying.
"It's nothing, let's go, LaMarcus, let's choose a room with a beautiful view from the window." An Jie smiled at Aldridge. In fact, An Jie just thought in his heart that the now popular pioneer, Will it gradually sink like the struggling Lakers and Celtics in a few years' time?
Struggling, this word is perfect for the Celtics and Lakers. These two giants who were the top teams in the league two or three years ago, now every victory is very difficult for them.
Anjie and the Trail Blazers have already dealt with the Lakers in the West in the season opener,
Now let's see how the Celtics in the east will resist the butcher's knife.
...................
Garnett was on the training ground, fascinated by the pennants hanging from the ceiling. A championship ring, which naturally cannot satisfy Garnett's ambitions. Another man who was named the strongest No. 21 with him back then, now holds four rings, and the Spurs are still one of the favorites to win the championship.
Garnett folded his hips and shook his head helplessly. He hates time, because not everyone can break the shackles of time like Tim Duncan. He is not the No. 21 rookie, he is just an ordinary person who has changed from a young high school boy to a 36-year-old "veteran" in the blink of an eye.
When Ray Allen decided to leave the Celtics this summer, Garnett made no secret of calling the legendary shooter who had played alongside him for five years a traitor. However, when this season came to the present, he found that he and Pierce could no longer play like they did back then, run and jump like they did back then. Garnett gradually felt that Ray Allen had just taken a path that everyone wanted to take, but most people dared not take.
Now, at least Ray Allen still has the hope of getting another ring. But he couldn't see any light. This made Garnett very desperate.
"What's wrong with you recently, you're always staring at these rags." After changing his clothes, Paul Pierce went back to the training ground to retrieve his mobile phone, but found that Garnett was still in the same place with his jersey on.
"At this age, people always think about things. Tomorrow's game will not be easy." Garnett sighed, Anjie and Trail Blazers, these two names are enough tormenting just by hearing them. Coupled with Rondo's injury, the difficulty of this game can be seen.
"Tell us which game is easy? Okay old man, just do your best. You have to know that this era is improving. When you entered the league and raged, Olajuwon was also unconvinced. This is It’s an endless loop, kg, a loop that neither you nor I can escape. Let’s go, I’ll treat you to dinner.” Pierce took it very seriously, after all, this man who was stabbed 11 times and almost lost his life knew better than others The bliss brought by plainness.
"Dinner? You know Paul, I only eat seafood from the North Shore Garden." Garnett laughed.
"Come on, let's go to North Shore Garden."
...................................
"Ann? Ann is a bastard like me!" This is the best compliment Garnett gave to Anjie after Anjie and Garnett played against each other last season.
Spike Lee decided to put this image at the beginning of the game to directly illustrate the relationship between Angie and Garnett.
These two villains are enemies of each other, but they admire each other. With this delicate relationship, Spike Lee is confident that he can make this match extremely exciting when editing.
Spike Lee was sitting in the row behind the Trail Blazers bench contemplating his plans for his last shot, while Ainger and Garnett finally met on the court.
Garnett is not the kind of James who "you are all my brothers". Like Kobe, he is friendly to those who are friendly, and he can't squeeze a smile from those who shouldn't be friendly.
Garnett is not like Cousins. Cousins hates Anjie from the bottom of his heart, and the reason why Garnett is unwilling to show favor to Anjie before the game is entirely because he does not want to appear weak in momentum.
He is very clear that it is difficult for him to be 37 years old to win in a head-to-head confrontation with An Jie. The more this is the case, the more he has to work hard on his momentum. If An Jie didn't even have the last shred of fear towards him, then he would be completely defeated.
"Hahahaha, that guy KG is just like that. He has no malicious intentions, but he definitely has no good intentions. I said, I won't be polite later." The Celtics team who was most enthusiastic about Anjie was the Angie's teammate in the Thunder during his rookie season, power forward Chris Wilcox who has been homeless for three teams in the past few years.
"Even if you let Chris come here, you know, I'm not the same person I used to be." An Jie smiled at Wilcox, Wilcox is getting old, and he is getting older powerful. Now let alone Wilcox, Garnett himself can't stop him.
8 wins and 7 losses, although the record is really mediocre, but the Celtics this season is not a mess. They're still a huge force in the Eastern Conference, but they just don't have the possibility of getting their hands on the championship.
Ricard reminded his men more than once before the game that they were facing the Boston Celtics, a team that had won the most championships in the league, and a team that had only won a championship within five years ! Although they have declined, the foundation of that wealthy family is still there.
Garnett and Pierce, genius knows if these two old ghosts will do something crazy in the game.
Ricard did this because he was afraid that the Blazers would underestimate the Celtics. The hard power of this team is indeed not as good as it used to be, but this team still has a champion and a heart eager to win! From that alone, anything can happen to the Celtics.
"Go on kg, this is just another damn game." Pierce patted Garnett's butt, and Garnett made his signature chest-beating action, and then walked towards the middle circle angrily.
For someone like Garnett, he may never get old. Therefore, even in the face of An Jie, he would "habitually" complain.
"Five consecutive victories?"
"Ah? Yes." Seeing that Garnett suddenly became concerned about his opponent, An Jie didn't realize it.
"Well, it's a pretty good record. But your winning streak will come to an end in Boston." An Jie knew that Garnett's initiative to talk to him must be a good thing.
"You can try Kevin, just like you failed last season." An Jie knew that it was time for slobbering, so he also had a verbal battle with Garnett.
Garnett didn't respond, just turned around and glanced at Pierce, then turned back to stare at the referee's basketball.
The 36-year-old Garnett and the 35-year-old Pierce will let Anjie and the Blazers experience the power of a veteran!
"Beep!" The basketball was thrown into the air, and the two slender arms intertwined together...
