The Way of the Center

In the first game, the Grizzlies lost to Anjie, who was in amazing form. Gasol Jr. still remembers that there were several balls that day, and he had completely blocked Anjie. However, Anjie still insisted on shooting and scored the ball.

This kind of unreasonable goal is the most damaging to the morale of the defensive team. And once the Grizzlies' defense loosened, they had nothing.

You want the Grizzlies to chase points on offense? Please, let Lionel Hollins find some stable three-point shooters first. Although the Trail Blazers are also a team that focuses on inside offense, the three-pointers of Matthews, Batum, Courtney Lee and even Fisher are also very deadly. And these things are exactly what the Grizzlies lack.

So the only thing the Grizzlies can rely on is defense, and Anjie is their biggest obstacle on the defensive end.

But today is different, Marc Gasol is ready to fight Anger to the end. He didn't believe that the Chinese man wearing the No. 00 jersey could play unreasonable performances in two consecutive games. As long as An Jie could be restrained, the Blazers' offense would be much inferior.

"Follow Ann, follow Ann all the time. I want you to defend him at all costs and make it difficult for him to make any moves." Lionel Hollins still arranged tactics a second before the start of the game , this guy did everything he could. Next, it depends on the performance of big guys like Anjie and Marc Gasol.

Yu Jia and Zhang Weiping still came to the scene, and they were full of confidence in the second game of the Trail Blazers.

"In the first game between the two sides, Anjie has proved that his ability is superior to Marc Gasol. Maybe he will have the advantage of the Grizzlies when they meet other teams. But when they meet the Blazers Otherwise, the advantage of the center position will disappear. When a team can't play at its best, it will be difficult for them to win." Zhang Weiping is taking the time to analyze the trend of the playoffs.

"Director Zhang is right, unless the Grizzlies have surprise players, such as Mike Conley, such as Tony Allen. Otherwise, the situation of the Grizzlies is really very bad. Well, the referee has thrown the ball to In the air, audience friends, the game has officially begun!"

Before the game, the scene of Westbrook's injury kept appearing in Anjie's eyes. He sympathized with his brother very much, and at the same time, this scene also sounded a wake-up call for himself.

Seize the moment! Win all the games you can, and leave no regrets for your career!

Thinking of this, An Jie instantly felt the feeling of strength filling his whole body again. With a sudden jump, he touched the basketball before Marc Gasol.

Without any suspense, the Trail Blazers won the first attack. Anjie seldom loses to his opponent in scrimmage. After playing 82 games in the regular season, Anjie may not even lose 10 scrimmage games.

Lillard has just received the ball, and Tony Allen is ready to defend. Seeing this situation, Lillard immediately gave the ball to Iguodala, and Iguodala, a small forward, controlled the ball and advanced!

Iguodala controls the basketball skillfully and organizes the offense with style. Because of Lillard's existence, people seem to have forgotten that this small forward with strong athletic ability is not bad at organizing offense.

While playing in Philadelphia, Iguodala was often compared to AI. The 183 cm Allen Iverson is a point guard with a shooting guard's heart in his body. And Iguodala, who is 198 cm tall, is the soul of a point guard stuffed in the body of a shooting guard.

Although after coming to the Trail Blazers, due to tactical needs, Iguodala's position became the third position, but this did not affect Iguodala's ability to organize offenses.

Compared with Lillard, Iguodala's organization is more stable. This guy shouted loudly, and his teammates obediently followed Iguodala's command to move.

"Damn it!" Although Tony Allen defended Lillard to death, he knew that he had been led to the weak side by Lillard. And at the moment Tony Allen wants to defend the most,

It's Iguodala who is holding the ball.

But there is no way, no matter how powerful Tony Allen's defense is, all he can do now is just watch.

Iguodala directed for a long time. After his teammates opened up the space, he suddenly hit the ground and passed the ball to Anjie.

Anjie holds the ball with his back to the basket, and his back has been testing Gasol's defense. At the same time, Aldridge started to run, and when he just ran to the free throw line, Anjie passed the ball.

Randolph didn't dare to rush forward, he was afraid that he would lose his position because of the forward steal. This guy knows that to guard Aldridge, you have to make sure you're always in front of him.

After Aldridge received the ball, he simply tried twice, but because he was in the penalty area, he had to make a quick decision, otherwise he would be called a three-second violation later.

After the tentative step, Aldridge did not choose to break through. Instead, he took a small step back, pulled it up and shot!

Aldridge's shot point is very high. Although Randolph, who does not have an advantage in height and wingspan, responded in a timely manner, he was unable to touch the basketball held high by Aldridge.

But defense is not only about steals and blocks, it can interfere with the opponent's shots, which is also a kind of successful defense.

Randolph did just that, thinking he had sealed Aldridge's vision. Under such serious interference, the Trail Blazers' first offense ended in failure.

An Jie looked at the trajectory of the basketball and smiled slightly. Afterwards, the basketball hollowed out into the net. Marc Gasol thought that Anjie didn't want to waste his energy on positioning, but he didn't know that Anjie had already anticipated the result of this attack. This kind of goal, Aldridge scored countless times on Anjie's head. So Anjie is also very clear about when the ball will be scored and when he needs to fight for rebounds.

"It works!" Rickard waved his arm vigorously. It was indeed the right choice for him to let the two leading stars, Anjie and Aldridge, "injure each other".

Randolph didn't say anything, he just shook his head in annoyance. But Lionel Hollins, who was sitting on the bench, was very nervous. Today, wouldn't it be Aldridge's turn to explode?

The Grizzlies counterattacked, and Mike Conley's offense seemed particularly strong today. It was evident from the fact that he made a dizzying array of dribble moves in front of Lillard.

Conley almost disappeared in the last game, which made the media criticize him quite a bit. Today, Conley really wants to prove that an older rookie in the first year can't do anything to him!

Don't say that these dazzling dribbling moves are ostentatious, Conley's fake moves really tricked Lillard. While Lillard was hesitating, Conley suddenly accelerated his breakthrough and plunged into the penalty area.

Anjie faithfully carried out Ricard's instructions and stuck to the basket! So when Marc Gasol exited the paint to make room for Conley, Angie didn't choose to go out with Gasol. Instead, he opened his arms and waited for Mike Conley to throw himself into the trap.

Conley didn't slow down. Facing An Jie who opened his hands, he jumped suddenly, as if planning to force a layup!

However, at the moment Anjie also jumped up to block the shot, Conley stuffed the ball from Anjie's armpit into Gasol's hand in the air.

Little Gasol didn't even jump, he just stepped on his foot and threw the ball. The shots that were not disturbed also entered the frame hollowly.

"Beautiful cooperation, the connection between Gasol Jr. and Mike Conley is very tacit." Even Yu Jia, who supported Anjie, was full of praise for the Grizzlies' offense this time. After all, it is difficult to see these pictures on the Grizzlies who are not good at attacking.

Ricard knew that Lionel Hollins would not be indifferent after losing a game, but he didn't expect that Hollins would put his treasure on Mike Conley.

In the first game, the core of the Grizzlies' offense was Gasol Jr. But today, the core of the Grizzlies' offense has become Conley.

"Interesting." Ricard propped his chin up with his hands. The Grizzlies are actually trying to find a way on the offensive end? Does this mean the Grizzlies are about to evolve, or are they just dying?

The offensive ball was once again in the hands of the Trail Blazers, Tony Allen was still inseparable from Lillard, and Iguodala once again assumed the role of attacker.

Maybe the low-key Iguodala in the regular season is often forgotten by people, but the players and coaches of the Trail Blazers know how great Iguodala's role is.

It's not that this guy can't fight, but he really likes the role player position.

After Iverson left the 76ers that year, everyone hoped that Iguodala would be the ace. For others, this is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. But it's strange that Iguodala's style of play is still a role player, and he still prefers to be a second in command.

Maybe, the guy has that type of player in his bones. Even though he has great personal ability, he is still willing to do all the dirty work. This guy doesn't compete for statistics, he just calmly does everything the team needs.

Because of this, Iguodala will not be so conspicuous in the regular season. But that doesn't mean this guy is useless.

Iguodala pretended to pass the ball, but suddenly broke through Aldridge's pick-and-roll!

"Old Prince" Tyshawn Prince's heavy steps seemed to be walking in the mud below his knees, but what about Iguodala? People's speed is skating on the ice!

In almost one step, Prince was pulled clean by Iguodala. Prince, who was not dominant in speed, was helpless when he encountered Aldridge's pick-and-roll.

Iguodala broke through with the ball, and the Grizzlies lineup began to shrink unconsciously. Faced with such an opportunity, Iguodala was not greedy for credit. He just gently passed the ball back, and Aldridge, who mentioned the high position to pick and roll, got a chance!

Now, the man defending in front of Aldridge is Prince. If even Randolph's height can't interfere with Aldridge's shooting, Prince can't even do it.

Aldridge catches and shoots, still a signature high release point. As if the basketball was remotely controlled, it drew a perfect arc and entered the net again!

"Scoring two goals in a row, it can be seen that Aldridge feels very hot today."

After the ball was scored, Anjie clapped hands with Aldridge and Iguodala respectively during the retreat. The excellent performance of these two guys has greatly lightened the burden on me

His teammates have come up with such a strong performance, how can An Jie, the leading star, back down?

This time, Marc Gasol and Randolph both made a double pick-and-roll for Conley.

Although An Jie received the order to stick to the basket, tactics are dead, but people are alive.

Seeing that Gasol mentioned the high position, An Jie followed suit. He didn't want to give Gasol Jr. an open shot. An Jie understood that the Spaniard's spot-up shooting ability was no worse than his own.

Seeing An Jie walk out of the restricted area, Mike Conley felt extremely happy. As long as An Jie is not around, he is fearless!

The small guard went straight to the basket through the pick-and-roll, and the huge obstacles of the double pick-and-roll made Lillard and Aldridge helpless against Conley's breakthrough.

Conley's speed is very fast. Fortunately, even if Iguodala appeared to carry it, he forced Conley to slow down.

However, Conley, who had already rushed up, was not afraid of Iguodala's blocking. He took three steps directly from the inertia, and put his shoulders on Iguodala's body to complete the layup. No matter how bad it is, Conley feels that making a foul is also an option!

He leaps high, and Iguodala has no room to block. Mike Conley sent the basketball lightly, such a good opportunity, he is bound to get it!

Lionel takes himself very seriously, and Conley doesn't want to let his coach down. He hopes that Conley can lead the team to victory, so Conley will stand up now!

The basketball gradually approached the basket, and Iguodala stared at the spinning basketball, as if the basketball would change its flight trajectory because of Iguodala's fierce eyes.

Both Conley and Iguodala are about to hit the ground, and under the spotlight, the basketball is about to start falling.

Some of the Grizzlies fans who came with the team stood up and raised their arms. They finally had a chance to cheer in the rose garden. However......

"Crack!" There was a crisp sound first.

"Boom!" After that, there was the dull sound of the basketball hitting the backboard.

Looking again, An Jie just landed, gnashing his teeth.

"Get out of my place, Mike!" Angie yelled in a low voice, startling Conley. Find this site and search for "Apex Novels 208xs", or please remember the URL of this site:
