The Way of the Center

Although 29 years old is still a very young stage in a person's life. But for professional athletes, 29 years old is already a relatively old age.

This is almost the end of Anjie's peak physical function. Once he reaches the age of 30, the body of a professional athlete will deteriorate year by year.

As an Asian who has suffered serious injuries to both knees, Anjie can clearly feel that his physical fitness is much more tense this year than before.

In the previous finals, even though An Jie fought for seven games, he still kept his vitality. But now, An Jie's body can only be described as overwhelmed.

You know, Yao Ming, the last Chinese big man who made a name for himself in the NBA, retired early at the age of 31. And when Yao Ming was 29 years old, he basically couldn't play any balls because his body was overwhelmed.

Moreover, in the finals of this season, the support around An Jie is very limited. For the first three consecutive championships, Anjie has Lillard, Aldridge, Iguodala and other helpers around him. But now, there is indeed a lack of stars around Anjie. In this case, An Jie needs to take on more responsibilities, so his physical strength must be doubled.

The total score of the finals has become 3 to 2, and the Trail Blazers have already won the match point. But in the eyes of the outside world, it is difficult for the exhausted Anjie to lead the team to two consecutive victories in a continuous rush. What's more, the sixth game was still played at the Quicken Loans Center Arena. Even if the Trail Blazers wanted to create a miracle to win the championship, they had to wait until the game returned to the Moda Center.

Therefore, although the Trail Blazers won the match point, when Anjie and the others flew to Cleveland again, no one except the local Portland fans and some Chinese fans thought they would be able to return triumphantly.

Countless fans began to search for the tickets for the tiebreaker at the Moda Center on the Internet. There is no doubt that the tickets for this game will be sold out early, and the fans hope to pre-order now.

However, to everyone's shock, the Trail Blazers officially did not plan to sell tickets for the tiebreaker. What Neil Orsi wants to express is obvious, his team will definitely solve the battle in Cleveland! The tiebreaker will never exist!

Such a situation is very rare in the league. Some people say that Orsi is the most determined general manager, and some people say that he is a fool who cannot accept reality.

But there is no doubt that Olsi, as the general manager, must have greatly boosted the team's morale.

An Jie is very grateful to the fans, Olsi and others for supporting him and his teammates, but he knows that it is himself and everyone sitting around him that really decides the outcome of the game.

Last round of the series,

Face mighty warriors. An Jie made it to the tiebreaker, and then relied on a lore to escape the danger. Facing the O'Brien Cup, Anjie must not let this dangerous situation happen again.

They have fought to the last minute, and it would be too shocking if they lost the O'Brien Cup. In any case, An Jie must maintain his undefeated record in the finals.

Everyone is not optimistic that the Trail Blazers who have already won the match point can win the championship in the Quicken Loans Center Arena? It doesn't matter, whether I can win or not has nothing to do with whether you like it or not!

An Jie was walking in the player tunnel of the Quicken Loans Center arena. At this time of year, the player tunnel must be very busy. The staff carrying the O'Brien Cup, the workers carrying the champagne, the volunteers preparing for the championship...the appearance of these people often means that Anjie is infinitely close to the O'Brien Cup.

But this year, the tunnel was empty. According to Ricard, the O'Brien Cup did come, but it was just a fake. The real one has been transported to the Moda Center to prepare for the tiebreaker. Fearful that the real trophy would be damaged by hauling it back and forth, officials took a fake one to Cleveland. To put it bluntly, even the nba officials don't think today's game can determine the champion.

As for champagne, under the current situation, if champagne is prepared in advance and the team loses, the blow to the players will be even greater. Therefore, Paul Allen, the boss who is willing to spend money for the winner, did not prepare in advance this year.

From the looks of it, it was just an ordinary game today, without any atmosphere of a championship. But these things not only did not make An Jie disheartened, but instead made the tall guy clenched his fists involuntarily.

Now that the officials have already shipped the real O'Brien Cup to Portland, there is no need to bother James to take it away! O'Brien Cup, just leave it there. An Jie must take away the victory of today's game!

On the other side, in the locker room of the Cavaliers, Tyronn Lue was busy making final arrangements for the players. Although the outside world believes that the Cavaliers' home court will not fall, Tyronn Lue can't relax like the reporters.

Regardless of today's game, the Cavaliers must win. Otherwise, they would have no next game to play.

LeBron James sat in front of his cabinet, listening carefully to the arrangements made by Tyronn Lue. After playing later, James will definitely spare no effort to fight. Because he knew that An Jie would do the same.

After so many years, James never thought that he would meet An Jie again so soon. The Cavaliers have defeated the Warriors, who are also a super team. This year, let the Blazers become the second defeat!

When Anjie and James both led the team out of the player tunnel, earth-shattering shouts erupted in the Quicken Loans Center arena.

Two great players, two great teams. The battle of life and death is about to start here.

The Cavaliers fans were very enthusiastic. They waved their signs and shouted slogans while the players were still warming up.

The sound of "destroying the city of tearing" was so continuous that Rickard even had to rely on roaring to communicate with Divac who was right beside him.

An Jie closed his eyes after shooting a few baskets and put his hands on his hips. He is experiencing the taste of war and enjoying the shouts of the fans. What is nothing without a championship and champagne, as long as you have these, you will have the atmosphere of a championship!

An Jie opened his eyes suddenly, picked up a basketball on the ground, and rushed straight to the basket. He kicked his legs hard and jumped high. When An Jieteng reached the highest point, his strong arms suddenly exerted force and pushed the basketball into the frame!

"Bang!" The loud sound of the basket made James, who was shooting from outside the three-point line, couldn't help but look back.

An Jie grasped the basket tightly and did a pull-up on it in a daze before he let go and landed.

"Ah!" An Jie roared after landing, and hammered his chest. At this moment, I don't know how many Trail Blazers fans in front of the TV are shouting along with him.

"Come on, Ann, come back with the championship!" Catherine clasped her hands together and prayed to heaven. No matter how the outside world comments, Anjie will always be Catherine, Portland, and China's hero!

"Boy, I'm very excited today!" James couldn't help but twitched his mouth after watching An Jie vent his emotions. It seems that today's battle will not disappoint James.

The fourth championship, An Jie has reached the final step. Resolving the battle in Cleveland was An Jie's only goal at the moment!

The champion will be born here!
