The Way of the Center

The March Madness game has come to an end, and people have turned their attention to the NBA arena again. Now is the fierce moment for various teams to directly compete for the playoff qualification. These have nothing to do with Anjie, but Divac still asked him to watch every game as much as possible. It's just that now it's not as simple as just watching the excitement before, and there are so many things to learn in it.

Since you want to watch the game, where else can be more suitable than a Chinese restaurant with a big beard? Training during the day and watching football in Big Beard's store at night has become the main theme of Anjie's life.

"Ann, how are you thinking about the draft?" The bearded man asked An Jie while wiping the table at the bar.

"Mr. Divac suggested that I participate in the draft this year, but I still want to play in the Cyclones for one more year." Anjie stared at the game on the screen intently.

"It's not impossible. By the way, I can bring more guests here, haha."

Catherine listened silently at the side. If she participates in the draft, does that mean that An Jie will leave? She got up and went back to her room without greeting anyone. Although An Jie was watching the game intently, he still noticed something was wrong with Catherine.

"Dong dong dong." Catherine was lying on the bed and was about to fall asleep when she suddenly heard a knock on the door outside the room.

She thought it was a bearded man, so she opened the door without asking. Unexpectedly, after opening the door, An Jie was standing bent over at the door.

"Um, can I go in? I just want to chat with you." An Jie scratched his head in embarrassment. This was the first time he entered a girl's room.

When An Jie bent down and walked into the door that was a bit short for him, he was stunned by everything in front of him.

On the table in Catherine's room, there were some sports newspapers and basketball magazines in a mess. The only thing these things had in common was that the covers were all his own without exception. It turns out that this girl...

"Are you going to participate in the draft?" Catherine's pleasant voice broke An Jie's thoughts.

"I want to play an extra year with the Cyclones."

"No, I mean no matter how many years you play here, will you eventually participate in the draft?" Catherine stared at An Jie with her blue eyes, and An Jie was stared in a daze.

"Yes, I want to play professional basketball, so no matter what happens in the end, I may go to the draft. What's the matter, even you care about this?" Isn't Catherine not very interested in basketball? Now that An Jie saw the basketball magazine and was asked about it by Catherine, he felt that things were very strange.

"After participating in the draft, you will be able to become a big star. There is no NBA team in Ames City, and you are so busy with training and games...do you have a chance to come back?" Catherine said in a low voice nod. This boy still does not belong to her.

"Catherine." An Jie didn't answer, but just called her name.

"Um?"

"Be my girlfriend."

"Oh...that's not right...what!?" Catherine stood up suddenly, even so An Jie didn't have to look up at her.

"Uh...be me...be my girlfriend. No matter where I am in the future, I will...will miss you, and I can get you Come to me." An Jie was looked at by Catherine, but he didn't have the courage just now.

What Catherine wanted was a promise. If they had no relationship before An Jie left, then An Jie might really not come back. Now, she felt a little relieved.

"Is it really your dream to play professional basketball? Ann."

"That's right." An Jie thought to himself, if Catherine changed the subject, would it be considered as a tactful rejection of him?

Unexpectedly, Catherine suddenly walked towards An Jie and kissed An Jie's forehead. An Jie felt as if his whole body had been shocked by electricity.

Totally numb. "If you can be selected in the top fifteen, I will be your girlfriend."

One encouragement, one promise, one love.

"This is what you said, don't go back on it!" An Jie knew that Catherine just wanted to motivate herself in this way, and she had actually agreed.

"No regrets."

The bearded man sat on the stairs, and he heard all the conversations in the room clearly. Daughter, daughter, have you finally found support?

After that day, Divac began to suffer. An Jie is now as if he has been beaten with chicken blood, and he is merciless when confronting him, an "old man".

"Yes! That's the way to fight!" Divac had no choice but to encourage An Jie to continue to exert strength while supporting his aching waist.

The two men, the old and the young, occupied the basketball court for a long time, until one day a third man appeared in the training ground.

Divac played An Jie with his back and singles. Now he can no longer rely on his strength and weight to force his disciples. He has to come up with something real.

hard! The left and right shoulders kept shaking, and An Jie was unmoved. After hundreds of failures, An Jie has now understood Divac's routine very clearly.

Turning to the left, Divac dashed towards the baseline, Anjie hurriedly followed, raised his hands and stuck to it. Who knew that Divac hadn't made a breakthrough yet, so he leaned directly on Anjie, jumped up forcefully, and threw the ball towards the basket at will.

"Doo! Defensive foul! Divac got two free throw opportunities." Divac imitated the commentator's tone and interpreted his performance just now.

"What!?" An Jie obviously didn't expect this kind of result. He felt that his defense just now had been very successful.

"There are more people in the NBA who are more ruffian than me. You have to use different defensive strategies when you meet different opponents. If your opponent is the type of Asakin, then you can boldly stick to it He won't let it go, he's the kind of one-sided guy who will never appreciate the beauty of drawing fouls. But if you're up against a guy like me, you have to watch out for his intentions. Put him a little distance away , anyway, his real purpose is not to directly attack the frame. In the interior, you can’t easily get unnecessary fouls. Every foul you have is valuable, and you must use it in the right place.” Divac said again After a while of preaching, An Jie listened very carefully.

"Okay, let's take a break." Divac waved his hand. When he first confronted Anjie and the others, Divac had no pressure, but now Anjie can make him sweat all by himself.

"It's okay, I'm not tired." An Jie picked up the basketball, ready to retaliate.

"I am tired!"

An Jie smiled and sat directly on the floor. When he turned his head, he saw Catherine sitting on the sidelines.

"When did you come?" It wasn't until Anjie asked that Divac realized that there was one more person off the court.

"I just came here. I don't have class in the afternoon, so I came to have a look." Catherine still smiled mischievously, with a pitiful beard, it seemed that her daughter would not often go to the store to help out now.

"Okay, but I still have to train for a while." An Jie didn't let his training slack in the slightest because of the girl's arrival.

"It's okay, you train slowly, I told you that there is no class in the afternoon." Catherine stared at those blue eyes, which were full of charm. Divac looked at the two from a distance, with a smirk on his face. This boy An Jie is not a wooden head,

What is he practicing? Catherine couldn't understand, but now she suddenly became interested in basketball. She wants to enter An Jie's world, and basketball is An Jie's world.

In the United States, it is quite normal for high school students to fall in love, and it is not uncommon for many high school students to have children. When it comes to universities, many people take care of their children during the day and come to class in the afternoon. Not to mention in the NBA, some players look very young. When you are still wondering if he is married, his children will be soy sauce. Therefore, love has never been a stumbling block on the road of professional sports. If managed properly, it may also become a powerful catalyst.

An Jie's love has obviously played a positive role now.

"If you can be selected in the top 15 picks, I will be your girlfriend." This sentence has been lingering in An Jie's ears, urging him to "torture" Divac constantly.

The decision slowly surfaced in An Jie's mind.
