USA TODAY’s reporter Sam Amik has been paying attention to the state and situation of several hot championships. After the All-Stars, the Spurs game made Sam Amik interested in defeating the Bulls in the first game, although he lost later. Clippers, but Sam Amick found an interesting phenomenon.

　　 This phenomenon is related to Anxi. Sam Amik discovered that after the All-Stars, Anxi was mentioned by Popovich as the starter, and Anxi's performance also made Sam Amick unable to help but play with the statistics.

Playing the Bulls against Derrick Rose, the defending Rose made 9 of 25 shots and only 36% of the field. Then he played the Bobcats and defended Gerald Henderson made 2 of 18 shots, and his shooting percentage was only 11%. The Nuggets, defending Ty Lawson shot 5 of 16 and hit 31%; playing Knicks, defending Melo Anthony shot 2 of 10 shots, 20% from the field; playing Clippers defense Griffin shot 5 of 15 and hits The rate is only 33%; for the Wizards, John Wall's shooting rate is 14%...

After the All-Star Game, Anxi played 6 games, and none of his opponents shot more than 40%. The lowest Gerald Henderson was only 11%. In 6 games, Anxi faced players in total. Only scored 25 goals, but the number of shots was 98. In such a calculation, the total shooting percentage of these players in Anxi defense is only 26%. How terrifying is this data?

And most importantly, Anxi faces the arrows of the opposing team in every game. The Bulls' Rose is even the MVP of last season's regular season, and there are super giants like Carmelo Anthony, Blake Ge. The league's strongest new-generation power forward like Liffin, star point guard like John Wall... In short, Anxi's opponents are not weak.

And Gregg Popovich’s use of Anxi also caught the attention of Sam Amick. In every game, Anxi is the starter, and then the opponent's arrow players are facing each other. From this point of view, Anxi is now It is already the strongest shield on the outside of the Spurs.

　　 So, after deliberation, in the USA TODAY's Spurs vs. Thunder game preview, Sam Amick wrote a line: "The winner-the Spurs' strongest shield and the scoring king!"

Then the content read: "I am more optimistic about the final game of the regular season between Oklahoma City and Spurs. I am more optimistic about the Spurs. I will briefly describe the reasons as follows: Recently, friends who have followed the Spurs game may have discovered that the Chinese player Anxi has started 5 consecutive games. In addition to the previous games with the Bulls, the players who played against China's An in six games did not shoot more than 40%, and the total shooting percentage was only 26%."

"China Ann seems to have put up a strong shield on the outside. After the All-Stars, due to the reduction of offensive role and the improvement of China An's own progress, he has no disadvantage on the outside defensive end. It is foreseeable that the Spurs will face the Thunder. Kevin Durant will face such a test. Once Anxi continues to defend, the Spurs will definitely be able to win this game..."

Sam Amik revealed the biggest advantage of the Spurs at present-Anxi, and it is naturally not only Sam Amik who pays attention to Anxi, such as Adrian Wonalovsky of Yahoo Sports, he also posted similar Foresight, so suddenly, Anxi became the focus of this Leima War.

　　Anxi's single defense has been so bad, so in this game, can he defend Kevin Durant? Many people began to think and doubt, but they all knew the fact that if Anxi can guard Kevin Durant, then the Spurs will win this Thunder Horse battle. And if Anxi can't prevent it, the outcome is truly unpredictable, so this time the Thunder Horse battle, the Spurs do indeed have some advantages.

On the trade deadline, the Spurs did nothing. Originally Gregg Popovich was still preparing to make a deal to get a point guard to make up for the lack of point guard position. The Spurs contacted the Cavaliers and planned to use Kwame Brown to add one. In the second round of next year's draft pick, the Cavaliers traded for Ramon Sessions. Unexpectedly, the Cavaliers would speak loudly. They rejected Kwame Brown and replaced Kwame Brown with Anxi.

　　 So Popovich immediately stopped the deal, but Ramon Sessions did not stay with the Cavaliers, he was sent to the Lakers.

Without completing the reinforcement of the point guard position, Popovich set his sights on the free market. Patrick Mills, who had just returned from the Chinese gold rush, attracted the attention of Popovich. The Spurs' last 10-day contract this season , Used it on Patrick Mills.

　　 In this way, Patrick Mills, who had previously played for the Trail Blazers and had a mediocre performance, became the Spurs' new addition, but because he did not register in time, he could not catch up with the Thunder.

Anxi spent the time before the game in Jeff Hornacek’s special training. The time came to March 16, 2012. The Thunder Horse battle is about to start, and the nation’s eyes are on Chesapeake Energy, the home of the Thunder. Arena.

　　 As the focus of the league, ESPN, TNT and NBC all broadcasted the game nationwide, and the three sets of commentaries filled the technical stage.

　　 And the domestic CCTV also chose to broadcast the game, with Director Zhang and Yu Jia as the commentators of the game.

Recently, Anxi’s hot state has also helped him win more fans in China. Compared with the nickname given to the kid by the United States, the nickname given to Anxi by domestic fans is obviously more normal-Anshen, yes, Anxi is indeed a bit super. God meant it, so there is nothing wrong with calling Anxi to calm the nerves.

Before the start of the game, Popovich’s task to Anxi was naturally to prevent Kevin Durant from death. In the first two encounters, Anxi failed to prevent Adu. This time Anxi has improved a lot~www.novelmtl.com~Pop Povic has more expectations for Anxi.
