The Way of the Center

"There is no hope. The 76ers have no hope in this game! The only suspense in this game is whether Ann can break his record of 45 consecutive double-doubles. For three consecutive seasons, Andu stopped at 45 games. Let's see if the ambitious Ann can change this number to 46 this year!" Reggie Miller sat leisurely on the commentary stand, and on the field, the players of the Trail Blazers were as relaxed as Reggie Miller .

Since letting go of Iguodala and trading for Bynum, the 76ers have never recovered. Luke Richard Mbah a Moute, Henry Sims, Robert Covington, Larry Drew II and Norris Knoll.

These young people who may only play as substitutes in other teams are the strongest lineup that the 76ers can produce.

There are no bargaining chips in the trade, lack of vision in the draft, and the 76ers have no attraction to other big names in the summer. Moreover, this poor team is also plagued by injuries.

It's hard to say how this team will rise, at least for now, the 76ers don't have any ability to gain a foothold in the league.

After the third quarter, the powerful Trail Blazers have completely lost the suspense of the game. In the eyes of the Blazers, the 76ers' defense is like paper, which can be broken with a poke.

There are already more than half of the vacancies in the Fuguo Center arena, and the whole scene is deserted, which is very inconsistent with the scenes of other nba games.

At this moment, Meyers Leonard is already preparing to play on the technical table. Now that the game has entered garbage time, Ricard is already planning to take Anjie down.

An Jie looked at the sidelines, and then at the undrafted Larry Drew II who was holding the ball and advancing in front of him. Before the ball is dead, this is his last chance to win a double-double!

If Calder still sent Anjie on the field during the garbage time and asked Anjie to brush up the damn stats, then this record is meaningless. Anjie must do everything within the limited time. This is the last chance. He must ensure that the 76ers' offense fails and he grabs the rebound himself!

Anjie had never heard of the name Larry Drew II before this game. It's not that An Jie underestimated the enemy, but that this little guard is indeed a rare and unfamiliar face in the NBA.

He participated in the draft in 2013 and was not picked by any team. Although he received an olive branch from the Heat, he was cut by the Heat before the start of the regular season.

For the next year, Larry Drew II hung out in the Development League. It wasn't until half a month ago that he signed a one-point, 10-day short contract with the 76ers, officially playing in the NBA. And now, it's just the second day of the second 10-day contract of the small guard Larry Drew II.

Such a guy who works part-time in the nba,

An Jie naturally didn't know him. Therefore, this guy's organizational ability and scoring ability also made An Jie very "reassuring".

Sure enough, seeing the old Miller rushing towards him with his teeth and claws, the young Rad Drew II immediately threw the ball out. He didn't pass the ball to play, but simply out of fear.

The "leading scorer" of the 76ers this season, Robert Covington, catches the pass. This undrafted forward carefully protects the basketball, fearing that Iguodala in front of him will Take the ball away.

Although Covington is also an undrafted pick, he averaged 13.2 points per game this season, which is already the most powerful weapon for the 76ers on the offensive end. Iguodala did not relax his vigilance because his opponent was a second-year undrafted pick. He knew that if Covington was in good form, his offense would still be quite threatening.

Covington saw that there was no way to shoot, so he began to dribble and plan to break through. He suddenly accelerated to the left, simple and rude, without any skills. Such a breakthrough simply cannot penetrate Iguodala's defense.

Iguodala just moved slightly sideways, and he firmly blocked Covington from outside the three-point line.

An Jie started to get excited. It seemed that he had grabbed this rebound by himself!

The first breakthrough was unsuccessful, and Covington immediately tried a second time. However, this young forward still failed to beat Iguodala.

Seeing that there was no chance, Covington hit the ground and passed the ball to the inside.

Norris Noel, before participating in the draft, this center with a hairstyle that looks like a "gorilla" was even once a popular candidate for the No. 1 pick. Now, however, his performance is not quite in line with people's expectations of him.

Seeing that Noel was holding the ball inside, An Jie didn't hesitate, and immediately supported Noel's waist with one hand, and raised his other hand high, ready to interfere at any time.

Noel took a deep breath and pushed back hard! However, the "high wall" behind him did not shake in the slightest!

Seeing that the 24-second attack time was running out, Noel did not continue to seek opportunities, but turned around and hooked directly! He still didn't believe that An Jie could block his own hook.

Facts have proved that An Jie really has no way to slap Noel's hook away. But this does not mean that Noel will be able to hit the hook if he escapes Anjie's block!

"Noel turned around and hooked, Ann's defense was very active, he almost covered all of Noel's sight! The ball was missed! Ann made a quick second jump, and he caught the offensive rebound before everything else! 26 points and 10 rebounds, Congratulations to Ann, he broke his own highest record and extended the record of consecutive double-doubles to 46 games!" An ordinary defense made Reggie Miller and all the Trail Blazers fans cheer.

An Jie didn't hesitate after grabbing the rebound, but swung it vigorously, giving Nicholas Batum, who had already run ahead, a chance.

After receiving the basketball, Batum did not fear Mbah a Moute's defense, but forced a layup against fierce physical confrontation.

Desperate 76ers coach Brett Brown called a timeout, and Ainger walked off the court, and the entire team came up to high-five him. In just three quarters, Anjie scored a double-double of 26+10. It seems that An Jie didn't just talk about breaking Love's record.

In the end, the Trail Blazers successfully slaughtered the 76ers 74 to 100 in Philadelphia, continuing to lead the league.

"Mr. An, Mr. An! You must be very happy to break the curse of 45 games!?" After the game, this unsuspecting game still attracted many reporters to attend the press conference. There is no doubt that they all came for An Jie's record.

"As I said, my goal is to break Kevin Love's record. 46 games is just the beginning." An Jie's answer on stage was still confident, as if breaking Love's record was destined. Same.

Outside, some people are questioning An Jie, while others are accusing An Jie of being conceited. Angie's old rival, Sam Smith, Jordan's queen reporter at the time, even pointed out in his column: An egomaniac like Angie usually doesn't have any good results.

In this way, with doubts from all over the world, on January 30, the Portland Trail Blazers played against the Atlanta Hawks, the No. 1 player in the Eastern Conference...

"Aldridge is in great shape today! He has scored a game-high 35 points, which is more than Angie! Against Millsap's defense, can Aldridge turn over and shoot a jumper? Continue to hit!?"

Aldridge shot confidently, but this time, a little tired, he didn't control the finishing movement of the shot. The basketball hit the front of the basket, and it seemed that this attack was about to fail.

At this time, Horford, who was about to grab the rebound, was suddenly under tremendous pressure. It was An Jie! This guy still wants to grab rebounds in a bad position!

An Jie jumped from behind and pressed Horford, who is 2.08 meters tall, firmly under him. After that, An Jie grabbed the basketball and pushed it back into the frame.

"Ann, a powerful dunk! Horford has nothing to do! 27 points and 13 rebounds, this is the 13th rebound that Ann has grabbed today! Look, this guy scored again today. It's unbelievable!" O'Neill stood up from the bench and applauded Anjie, who never expected that the Chinese, who was blocked by him in the playoffs back then, could be so strong now!

The Eagles, No. 1 in the East, can be said to be one of the biggest dark horses this year, but after Anjie completed the dunk, the morale of the Eagles has been exhausted.

99 to 106, the Trail Blazers continued to win at home. In 47 games, An Jie is getting closer and closer to Love's terrifying record!

After the game, Catherine rushed directly into the field and embraced An Jie. The reporters frantically filmed all the pictures. Every scene now is a testimony to An Jie's legendary career!

The last game in January was against the Milwaukee Bucks, a 99-95 win on the road. Bucks veteran shooter Jared Dudley performed very well in this game. He made 6 of 8 three-pointers and scored 28 points. It's a pity that Anjie broke the Bucks' dream of winning with a super double-double of 32 points and 15 rebounds. For the 48th consecutive game, those reporters who questioned An Jie began to panic.

On February 2, the Trail Blazers played against the Jazz at home. Gordon Hayward and Derek Favors gave the Trail Blazers too much trouble today. These two guys scored 47 points together and almost overturned the Trail Blazers.

Fortunately, relying on Anjie's big gamble against Favors at the last moment, the Trail Blazers still kept their home court by one point 102 to 103. Anjie had 24 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocked shots, his 49th consecutive double-double.

On February 5th, Angie faced the Suns who blocked himself from the playoffs during his rookie season. Scored 29 points and 11 rebounds in the game, the 50th consecutive double-double!

On February 7, the Trail Blazers played away against the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavericks, who are hovering on the edge of the playoffs this season, burst out with infinite power. Dirk Nowitzki, Chandler Parsons and Monta Ellis scored 65 points together. Today, Lillard and Aldridge played abnormally.

Lillard shot just 23 percent and scored 11 points. Aldridge scored just 15 points on 40 percent shooting. The Trail Blazers lost the game 102-108, ending the winning streak.

However, An Jie still scored 33 points and 16 rebounds in a super large double-double data, making his consecutive double-double record into 51 games.

The Trail Blazers' record has become 46 wins and 5 losses. That is to say, from the beginning of the new season to now, Anjie has contributed double-double data in every game!

On February 8, the Trail Blazers recovered, allowing them to defeat the Rockets in Howard's absence due to injury in their second consecutive away game. Anjie was unbeatable in the paint, scoring 33 points and 13 rebounds, his 52nd consecutive game!

Now, the entire basketball world is in shock. 52 games, this is already an insurmountable record of consecutive double-doubles. Back then, for this record, Love was actually suspected of brushing data. Even if it was garbage time, Love still asked to continue playing.

As for An Jie, this record of 52 consecutive double-double games is completely real! Ricard did not give Anderdo more playing time because of this record. But under such circumstances, An Jie still came to this step.

This terrifying guy, if he casually said that he wants to break the record, can he really break it! ?

Now, there are still four days until the 2015 All-Star weekend. And during these four days, An Jie still has a game to play. If An Jie can successfully record a double-double in that game, before the All-Star Game, Love will no longer be the first person in the NBA to record consecutive double-doubles!

After the game, in the player channel, the excited Lillard jumped up and climbed onto Anjie's back.

"You really have Ann! It's been 52 games, and if you have one more game, you will be tied for first place with Love!" Lillard shouted excitedly in Anjie's ear. I am even more excited.

"It's only two games away from breaking the record. Don't worry Damien, it's nothing to me. I won't keep you guys excited for so long, two games left, I will definitely continue Get the double-double data! Don’t worry, I will do what I say!” Anjie carried Lillard to the locker room, and blinked at his right-hand man.

Are you ready? An Jie, he is about to change the alliance structure again!
