The Way of the Center

Chapter 371: : Strategic strike

At the end of the first quarter, the score was 2o to 26, and the Blazers temporarily led the six points. E Xiao ┡ said Ww "W. ㄟ1XIAOSHUO. COM But An Jie knows that this six-point advantage does not explain the problem at all. If it weren't for Jamal Crawford's outstanding performance, it would be another matter whether the Blazers could take the lead. The key to whether this game can be won is to see Anjie and Aldridge can continue to suppress Gasol and Zach Randolph.

Like Anjie, Ricard is also thinking about how to beat the black and white bears. The scoring ability of these two guys makes it impossible for them to be completely restricted. The only thing Ricard can do is to find a way to minimize the efficiency of these two guys.

How to disperse their energy on the offensive end is very simple. Seeing how Garnett dealt with Anjie, Ricard has some ideas.

"Ann! In the second quarter, increase the number of one-on-one singles with Gasol! I don't even ask you to think about the level of efficiency. Your goal is to exhaust Gasol from exhaustion, give me Consume him fiercely! After that, the door of the Grizzlies penalty area will naturally open for you." Ricard is not afraid that An Jie will feel tired, this guy is notoriously good in physical strength and will. In the war of attrition, Ricard believed that even if Anjie would fall, he would fall after Gasol.

"What about Randolph?" Anjie asked Ricard, black and white bears, there is still no countermeasure for one black bear.

"Randov does not make special arrangements. Without Gasol's support, this guy won't get too many opportunities. Also, I hope you all will force Rudy Gay and Mike Conley to take action. Both of these. If a guy is playing well, the rest of the Grizzlies won’t even want to touch the basketball!” Finally, Ricard did not forget to take advantage of Gay’s too sticky ball and Conley’s immature offensive level.

When the Grizzlies had James Harden, O.J. Mayo, Rudy Gay and Mike Conley at the same time, their goals were simply not enough points, and it was difficult for Hollins to implement his tactics.

But now that Harden is injured and Mayo is cruelly pressed on the bench, the Grizzlies finally have a clear tactical idea.

But Guy and Conley are also not fuel-efficient lamps. Ricard was not afraid of them attacking, but instead was afraid that they would not attack! Gasol and Randolph have always been inside players. They want to attack and cannot do without the transmission and assistance from outside.

If Gasol and Randolph are cut off directly, the Black and White Bears will not be able to use their abilities no matter how powerful they are. The best way to cut this path is to let Guy and Conley attack on their own.

With all the arrangements, the Trail Blazers' five tigers are back on the stage. They know that the arrangement is just an ideal state. How to implement it will have to wait until the start of the game to find out.

As soon as the first quarter came up, Tony Allen unexpectedly committed another foul against Gerald Wallace. Because it was a shooting foul, Tony Allen was able to stand on the free throw line.

Although Tony Allen is not good at shooting, his free throws are still remarkable.

Gerald Wallace didn't expect that this offensive defensive gate, which is extremely lacking in offensive methods, would be so strong today. For Tony Allen's breakthrough, Gerald Wallace was also unprepared.

This time, even Ricard shook his head silently. At the beginning he had very high expectations for Gerald Wallace. At the beginning of the season, people even defined Anjie, Aldridge and Wallace as a low-profile version of the Big Three.

But as the game progressed, Ricard found that Gerald Wallace became more and more unbearable. Perhaps he lost his leadership position and suffered severe damage to his lungs, but he really couldn't find the feeling of being an "Elvis" anymore.

Tony Allen can defend Gerald Wallace to death, but it is difficult for Gerald Wallace to stop Tony Allen from attacking the basket.

As soon as the first goal came, the Grizzlies broke the Trail Blazers defensive plan. But it doesn't matter, at least on the offensive end, the Blazers' tactics can still be implemented.

In the first quarter of the game, An Jie was fighting with Marc Gasol with skill. But in the second quarter the Trail Blazers first offense, Gasol felt something was wrong.

An Jie did not hold the ball near the free-throw line this time, but leaned directly on himself and pushed hard.

Looking at the rest of the Trail Blazers, they all opened up space for Angela. There is only one possibility for this tactic, let An Jie play singles!

"What a **** self-confidence!" Gasol is a role that most players try to avoid when attacking, but now it's good, the Trail Blazers actually hired him to play.

Gasol is also a young man, he is as energetic as Anjie. This time it became clear that Gasol was looking down on the opponent's coach, and Gasol was also excited.

Want to single with me inside? Okay! Let's try, let's try what it's like to single out the Grizzlies' defensive backbone!

After the offensive space was completely freed up, Felton easily hit the ground and passed the ball, allowing Anjie to start implementing his plan.

"Give me a hard time with him!" This was the first voice in An Jie's mind after receiving the ball. According to his own thoughts, he is very reluctant to head-on with Gasol. Because he knew that it would be quite uncomfortable for him to fight like this, and his hit rate would certainly not be too high.

But on the other hand, Anjie trusted Ricard's arrangement. For long-term considerations, it's okay to consume little Gasol's energy now.

As a result, An Jie began to push forward with a sharp backhand. Gasol's defense is very good, which even Anjie must admit. Because An Jie leaned back two steps, but found that the distance he had advanced was minimal.

An Jie’s offense was blocked, and Gasol, who was behind An Jie, was also not easy! The little Gasol that Anjie leaned back was barely able to catch it. With a slight sigh of relief, his defenses would collapse. It can be said that he is no more relaxed than Anjie who wants to attack.

Seeing that back hitting was not a way, An Jie turned around, forced a breakthrough, and walked to the basket with his chest against Gasol's chest. Little Gasol was tight in his chest by An Jie's shoulders. Although he did not allow An Jie to get space, he was also tossed by An Jie.

In the end, Anjie used a left-hand hook that he was not good at without completely getting rid of the defense. Little Gasol took off with all his strength, and continued to put more pressure on Anjie's body.

In this high-intensity confrontation, Anjie's hook missed. Randolph scored a defensive rebound before Aldridge, Anjie's first singles, the execution failed!

"Huh, do you dare to come!? Huh...huh...huh..." Little Gasol was smug in his heart. Just now, he was perfectly guarded against death. Core center. That Anjie, who is known as the most comprehensive center in the league, is also unable to break through his tough low defense! ? But when he was proud, what Marc Gasol didn't care about was his increasingly rapid breathing...

After the Grizzlies offense, even if Gasol is on the perimeter, he will be cared for by Anjie in every possible way. In this way, it would be very difficult for Gasol to connect the ball as a countermeasure, let alone an offense.

If Anjie played very strategically in the first quarter, his style completely changed in the second quarter. Now he seems to have become a mad dog who has been hungry for several days. No matter where Gasol is or what he is doing, Anjie will bite him. In short, Anjie just doesn't let your little Gasol relax.

During this period of time, little Gasol hardly got any outings. Only four free throws were used to score four points, and two of the four free throws were due to Aldridge's fouls. Therefore, Anjie's foul pressure is not too big.

The game went by every minute, everyone thought that Anjie, the guy who failed three consecutive singles, had been completely guarded against death by Gasol. However, Shaquille O'Neal has been silent and did not make any comments. He knew that this was not An Jie's level!

Regardless of the fact that An Jie is young, he is very good at playing! When to be tough, when to use skills, and when to use both soft and hard, Anjie knows very well. As a person who has personally played against An Jie on the court, O'Neal does not believe that An Jie will always try to attack with a failed method.

There are only two explanations for An Jie's behavior. The first is that An Jie received a heavy blow to the brain after the first quarter, and now his basketball IQ has plummeted. The second is that Anjie did this, which was entirely Ricard's arrangement.

Even if O'Neill is no longer making sense, he will choose to believe in the second possibility. Now that the second quarter is about to end with only six minutes left, what does Ricard want?

Just when everyone was marveling at Anjie's abnormal offense, just when O'Neal was at a loss. Anjie finally successfully completed the singles in this round!

When An Jie continued to fight back and Gasol retreated steadily, An Jie knew that he had succeeded!

Now the physical strength of Gasol is far less than when he first played. Whether it is defensive or offensive, Gasol has been unable to achieve the high intensity just now.

Faced with Anjie's powerful impact, Gasol found himself unable to stabilize his heels.

Once he gritted his teeth, he stabilized his position before An Jie entered the attack range, and did not let An Jie advance half a step back.

However, at this moment, An Jie suddenly turned around and slammed into the penalty area. Gasol's defensive consciousness made his brain think of lateral movement. The brain transmits information to his legs, but Gasol's legs are half a beat slower!

He found that his legs seemed to be very heavy~www.NovelMTL.com~ An Jie gained a half-length leader. But half of his body is enough for An Jie to score the ball.

An Jie raised his left hand and made a layup. Little Gasol stretched out his long arms, ready to seal. As soon as Gasol lifted his feet off the ground, Anjie's movements stopped abruptly!

I saw that he took back the basketball in his hand, and suddenly turned around, completely avoiding the shelter of Gasol. After that, An Jie "looked back at the moon" in place, used his footsteps to make a counter-basket hit.

Anjie's offense is still fluent, back hitting, turning around, dreamy footsteps, layups, every link is perfect. Looking at Gasol again, his defense is much more procrastinated than before.

"Damn it!" Little Gasol didn't see that Anjie's offense was more than just before. He didn't know, the problem was with himself...

An Jie was secretly happy, and sure enough, choosing to trust Ricard was the right decision. The previous three consecutive failures are nothing. From now on, Anjie will take over the game!

In the second quarter, the game is over five minutes or so, so enjoy it slowly, big white bear!
