The Way of the Center

"Beep~~~" The red light on the backboard sounded, and the number on the timer changed to 0.0.

"No!" The entire Rose Garden fans hugged their heads with painful hands, James stood on the commentary stage, and the "little emperor" announced that he had completely conquered the city of roses.

Anjie slumped on the ground, he couldn't believe that he actually let James take the championship trophy from the Rose Garden.

"Ann, get up." At this desperate moment, Anjie heard Catherine's voice.

"No!" An Jie sat up abruptly, but found that he was not in the rose garden, nor in the basketball court. Instead, Catherine, who was sitting on the bed sweating profusely, brought breakfast milk to Anjie, was taken aback.

"Huh." An Jie looked around, then let out a big breath. Today is June 19th, US time. Tomorrow is the day when the tiebreaker of the finals will begin. Those scenes just now were just another nightmare.

"Have a nightmare again?" Catherine sat next to An Jie's bed. An Jie had already woke up once early yesterday morning.

"Yeah, **** it. Growing up, this is the third nightmare I have had in the playoffs. Even when I was a kid, it didn't happen so often." An Jie picked up the hot skim milk and drank it in one breath. Half a cup.

An Jie's highly tense nerves couldn't relax even when he returned home. Didn’t An Jie face setbacks, but lost the championship in the Rose Garden? If all this happened, An Jie really didn't know how to face it.

In the playoffs, the further you go, the worse you are likely to be beaten. And now, the Blazers have reached the highest point, which is the position where they are likely to be the worst.

"Sleep for a while. Anyway, the team didn't train this morning. You haven't slept well since you came back from the game yesterday. Don't worry, I will prepare lunch for you." Catherine smiled and stroked An Jie's face. .

"Thank you Catherine, but I have to start today's extra training." Anjie lightly kissed the back of Catherine's hand, lifted the quilt, and got up from the "terrible" bed.

When he walked out of the room, Anjie's parents and Catherine's father were already sitting at the dining table. After returning to Portland, An Jie, right? The two families have been accepted to live in their own houses. The most important thing in this small villa is the empty rooms.

"Wake up so early?" An Jie's father looked at his watch, and it was only 7 o'clock. The regular training of the Trail Blazers starts at two o'clock in the afternoon.

"It's already late today, Dad, I..." Before An Jie spoke, his attention was attracted by the TV.

"We must win the championship in the away tiebreak. History? History is used to be broken. This season, like Ann, I created the myth of 27 consecutive victories. Therefore, I will continue to create history in the finals. "On the TV screen, the reporters' interview with James after the end of yesterday's game was playing.

Although he lost, James is still full of confidence. The little emperor is a man who has reached the finals for three consecutive years. Compared with An Jie's first experience as a "rookie", the "little emperor" must have much more confidence.

In fact, before that, with the exception of the Lakers who were once invincible. Since the 21st century, there has not been a second team that can reach the finals for three consecutive years. But now, under the leadership of James, the Heat have done this.

Think about how strong the Lakers in the "OK" combination at the beginning of the 21st century and the Lakers from 2008 to 2010 are. And now, the Heat is a team of the same level as such a Laker.

Such a strong strength makes James' self-confidence as it should be. In the same way, it made Anjie's inner pressure even greater.

Also won 27 consecutive victories and also won a regular season record of more than 60 wins. The same way through all the way, stand on the stage of the finals. From the beginning to the end of this season, the Heat and the Blazers are the two best teams. The more I think about this, the more irritable An Jie feels.

Everyone will be under pressure, even Anjie, who has been working hard in the NBA for the fifth year, is no exception.

Seeing An Jie staring at the TV blankly, Catherine remembered An Jie's continuous nightmare last night. Needless to say, she also knew what trouble her lover had encountered.

Anjie is an iron man in the hearts of Portland fans, an iron man who will not be knocked down by any difficulties and only exists in the myth.

But in Catherine's eyes, An Jie was no different from the big boy who was stupefied and stupefied.

So when Anjie had breakfast and changed clothes to go out, Catherine took Anjie's arm.

"Let's go, I'll go out with you."

"But...I'm going to train."

"Oh, let's go~" An Jie could refuse a million-dollar business contract, but he could not refuse Catherine's acting like a baby.

"Then...then we're leaving." An Jie greeted the three smiling "old men", and dragged Catherine out of the house.

"It will be hard to wait for you to go to the training ground. God knows how long we will train today."

"It's okay, I'll accompany you." Catherine said as she fiddled with the car stereo.

The preview program about the tiebreak of the NBA Finals was turned off by Catherine, and it was relaxing that the lazy voice replaced the fierce debate among the experts.

It was a song by Nora Jones, and Anjie knew it when he heard it. A few years ago, Jones also specially sent a CD to Anjie as a gift.

An Jie's nerves suddenly relaxed. After listening to the basketball radio program for a month, he was about to forget what it was like to enjoy and music.

Nora Jones's works are mostly love songs, and at this moment, Catherine is sitting next to her.

Accompanied by the moving melody, An Jie couldn't help holding Catherine's slender hand. The two of them looked in order and smiled slightly. Sometimes, taking it easy is such a simple thing.

"New York City

So touching so hurting

New York City

So touching"

Afterwards, the two couldn't help but sing to the car stereo. The whole car was filled with a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

An Jie suddenly turned a corner, and suddenly he didn't want to go to the rose garden. He just wanted to just drive aimlessly, he just wanted to enjoy this simple but very pleasant time.

The two were singing and laughing in the car, the finals? Tiebreaker? LeBron? Let these **** things get out of the current beauty.

A Mazda RX-7 sports car carrying laughter and laughter shuttled through the not-so-crowded streets of Portland. The city has been enveloped by the warm atmosphere of the finals. Huge posters, fans wearing Anjie 00 jersey can be seen everywhere, and Trailblazers flags are planted at the entrances of various stores... But Anjie and Catherine sitting in the car seem to be living Generally in their own little world. The two are completely isolated from the outside world, Portland, where there is only lazy relaxation and joy.

An Jie didn't know where he had been, or how long he had been driving. When the car finally drove into the underground parking lot of the Rose Garden, the team's regular training at two o'clock in the afternoon will begin in only half an hour.

Turning off the speakers, Anjie and Catherine's faces were still full of smiles. This "travel" made the two of them who had not seen each other much thought.

"It's great to have you there." An Jie couldn't help but leaned over, staring at Catherine's white cheeks.

"Do you want me to be by your side forever?" Catherine moved her face up, her voice charming.

An Jie swallowed. Although all these years and Catherine had done what Catherine was supposed to do, the girl would make An Jie's heart beat faster every time in the atmosphere of Miao Man.

He nodded silently, and their lips slowly moved closer.

"Bring me the championship as a wedding gift... I believe you, you are the best basketball player in the world." Catherine finished and kissed...

Anjie pushed open the door of the home team's locker room. As expected, his teammates were already actively preparing for training. It seems that Anjie's "acceptance speech" after the end of the game yesterday was not in vain.

"Look, look, this guy is full of spring time!" Aldridge immediately roared, when he just stopped, he accidentally saw something that he shouldn't see.

"I just saw your Hummer in LaMarcus. I'll be on the training ground later. You have to pay a price." An Jie did not shy away. After all, these guys are like their own family. Familiar with. With family, there is nothing to hide.

"The last regular training of this season guys." Ricard clapped his hands, and the noisy locker room immediately quieted down.

"Let me finish it in the best condition! Then tomorrow..." Ricard snapped his fingers, and several courier company staff dragged in a large box of things.

"Wow~www.NovelMTL.com~ Boss, I really have you!" Everyone's eyes were shining, and Ricard asked someone to drag it in. It was a box of champagne!

"Well, I know you guys can't wait. No one can touch that thing today. When we win the championship tomorrow, I will guarantee that none of you can walk out of this door soberly!"

"Roar!" Everyone yelled, Ricard used his own way to turn his players into a group of hungry wolves eager to win.

Where's Anjie? He is no longer under pressure. There are Catherine, family, teammates, coaches...There are so many people who accompany themselves to lose and win together. There is nothing terrible about the tiebreaker!

The last and most important game of the 12-13 season has been put on the agenda.
