The Way of the Center

Chapter 683: :Envy the vitality that does not come

One second to remember 【】, to provide you with wonderful novel reading.

"Ah!" Popovich, who was studying the game video in the hotel, suddenly sneezed. This guy didn't know that the group of people in Moda Center were already talking about themselves.

Unlike the Trail Blazers, the already very old Spurs can't carry out high-intensity training anytime and anywhere. For GDP, rest is more effective than training. But not training does not mean that the Spurs will sit and wait.

Popovich woke up a long time ago and watched the Trail Blazers game video in his room. Any team has weaknesses, even if this team has just won 72 regular season games. The key is whether Popovich can grasp the weaknesses of the Trail Blazers.

After lunch, Popovich will call the team for a tactical meeting. After that, he will arrange for the team to conduct some training.

Although the preparation methods are completely different, the two teams are now taking each other very seriously. The Trail Blazers hope to win back a city at home, and the Spurs want to steal two victories in Portland.

No matter who wants to achieve the goal, he must put in enough effort.

The NBA is such a stage, no matter how much you have achieved before, no matter who the winner of the previous game is. Everyone is on the same starting line before the start of each game!

The hard-trained Trail Blazers and the brainstorming Spurs are still preparing for the second game of the two sides. No one knows what will happen on the basketball court, and now they are doing it to minimize the occurrence of emergencies. .

Although the Eastern Conference finals are also very exciting, but I have to admit that more fans' eyes are on the second game between the Spurs and the Blazers.

Even the best team needs constant evolution. After the evolution, the Blazers and Spurs are bound to bring more crazy performances to fans...

※※※

Catherine and Moslav are sitting behind the bench for the Trail Blazers at Moda Center. Together with them, there are also high-level Nike staff who came to watch the game.

Nike can't wait to start the development of the three generations of the center's way. They also came to discuss this matter with Moslav and An Jie on this trip. If Anjie can win this season, they even want to launch a limited edition second-generation sneaker.

In short, the big sales of the Way of the Center series has given Nike and Anjie a win-win situation. But business matters were left to Meslav to handle.

An Jie has only one goal now, and that is to defeat the Spurs on this piece of his own basketball court!

From the locker room to the court, from warming up to preparing for the game. Throughout the process, An Jie yelled loudly, constantly exciting his teammates.

Usually, these things are done by Ricard, Anjie only needs to lower his head to practice the ball well. But now, in order to protect Ricard from the disease, Anjie replaced Ricard and became the team's mid-pass microphone. Of course, this constant urging has also made An Jie more like a leader.

"There is still time, let's shoot another round! Everyone comes one by one, everyone has to vote again!" Under An Jie's leadership, the Blazers players began an orderly shooting warm-up practice. Even Popovich on the other side of the court had to look at Anjie's leadership abilities with admiration. After all, in this league now, how many young teams will warm up so well? With such a leader, Popovich will not be surprised what achievements the Trail Blazers have achieved.

"Tim, it seems that tonight, the defending champion is going to make a real move." Ginobili shot the ball while chatting with Duncan without a word.

"We are not bad either." Duncan simply responded to such a sentence, but this sentence made Ginobili very comfortable after listening. Duncan, like Anjie, is the backbone of each team. Duncan can hold on, the Spurs can hold on!

During the warm-up phase, the cheers in the Moda Center have already numbed the players' ears. In the stands, the fans either held An Jie's big head portrait, or held various encouraging signs, decorating the stadium with colorful colors.

The atmosphere of the war is warm enough, now, waiting for the war itself to quickly Cairo!

"How are you preparing?" Under the referee's instructions, the players on both sides began to move closer to the center circle. Duncan looked at An Jie blankly, but suddenly spoke.

"Enough to make you sweat." An Jie smiled and jumped in excitement.

Ricard has been on the sidelines from the beginning. The team's current mentality should have no problems. In terms of tactics, Ricard has also made a lot of targeted arrangements.

Can the Blazers keep a home court? What Ricard could do has been done, and now it's up to them!

The referee blew his whistle, and Angel and Split jumped up at the same time. But there is no suspense, the basketball was photographed by An Jie Lillard.

Popovich didn't care about this. The Trail Blazers won the first strike, and they have to be able to break the Spurs' defense!

When the Frenchman Parker rushed to Lillard, he found that the concentration of the zero guard in front of him was very different from the previous game.

Lillard is very cautious in handling the ball. He knows that the only way to win a game against the Spurs is to slowly grind against them. If you are impatient, you will fall into a defensive trap that Popovich has already set.

Lillard separated himself from Parker with one hand, while the other hand kept slapping the basketball. At this moment, Aldridge's pick-and-roll was in place, Lillard took a step back, and then suddenly accelerated!

Even an experienced guy like Tony Parker was too late to react to Lillard's first step.

A gust of wind blew by the Frenchman's side, and when he subconsciously moved to stop him, he found himself abruptly hitting Aldridge.

Lillard broke through and the Spurs' defense contracted a bit, but everyone did not lose their position. In this way, even if Lillard can pass the ball, the person who receives the ball may not get the chance.

Splitter crossed in front of Lillard, and he became the only obstacle between Lillard and Angel. But as long as he was there, Lillard would never want to pass the ball into Anjie's hands!

Just when Lillard had stepped into the three-second zone with one foot, he suddenly shook his wrist, and the basketball shot through Split's crotch and was steadily delivered to Anjie's hands!

"What!?" Splitter turned in disbelief. He didn't expect Lillard to choose this unconventional way to pass the ball. He didn't even expect that An Jie could actually catch it.

An Jie has raised the basketball with both hands at this time, leaping up and preparing to dunk. If Split was blocked, it would be of no use except to apply for a foul for himself.

In this way, Split watched Anjie dunk with both hands on his head. After scoring, Anjie and Lillard gave a strong high-five. Although the goal was very unconventional, the Blazers still took the lead in completing the goal.

Popovich can also see that the consciousness of the Blazers players is completely different from before. In the past, the Trail Blazers only needed to play singles one by one to beat the Rockets and the Mavericks.

But now, the ambiguous singles obviously does not apply to the Spurs. Therefore, Ricard also emphasized that the players should share the ball more.

With this first goal, Lillard and Anjie faithfully implemented Ricard's request. But offense alone is useless, and the Blazers' defense has to withstand the impact of the Spurs.

Parker's ball seems to be much more stable than Lillard, after all, Lillard is a more aggressive position, and Parker is a real playmaker.

After a series of delicate running positions and pick-and-rolls, Parker was able to break through to the basket. Although the "French Sports Car" was injured in the last game against the Thunder, this guy is still in excellent condition.

His smart breakthrough made it impossible for An Jie to ignore him. As soon as Tony Parker jumped up, An Jie jumped up behind the Frenchman.

Parker's vision is very terrifying. When he caught An Jie's jump with himself at the same time, his mouth couldn't help but cocked slightly.

If An Jie followed him to the jump, it would prove that Duncan was empty!

Parker didn't think much, he turned into a pass in the air, intending to create a chance for Duncan with a breakthrough point that he was good at!

Duncan caught up with the basketball steadily, did not hesitate, immediately took off and planned to dunk!

Popovich looked at Duncan flying into the sky, already planning to celebrate the beautiful goal with his fists.

Duncan stared at the rim. This year is the Spurs' best chance to win the championship. If you missed this opportunity, you don't know when you have to wait. He must hold it! Grasp this chance to win the championship, perhaps the last in your career!

Just when Duncan was about to put the basketball into the box, An Jie suddenly appeared! This guy opened his teeth and danced his claws, raised his arm, and slammed it!

Duncan continued to push his fingers, but the basketball was still out of his control and was slapped out.

"A terrifying secondary reaction speed! Ann just took off with Parker, but immediately after landing, he completed the block of Duncan! This guy's defensive ability is really terrifying!" accompanied by Mike Brin's yelling , The fans of the entire Moda Center finally found a breakthrough to release their emotions.

"You can't jump up anymore Tim, don't try to play this kind of young man's action again." After blocking, Anjie smiled and teased Duncan. Indeed, in addition to An Jie's quick response to the ball just now, Duncan's slamming speed and jumping height were also one of the reasons why his dunk was blocked.

An almost inevitable goal was wasted by Duncan himself. At this moment, even Duncan could not sigh the cruelty of time.

The basketball that was fanned out fell into the hands of Matthews by accident, and without thinking about it, Matthews quickly advanced with the ball.

The biggest surprise for the Spurs this season, Leonard sticks behind Matthews like a brown candy, but Matthews' real purpose is not to make a layup, but to score!

During the dribble, Matthews suddenly threw the ball to the left, and Lillard, who ran to the left corner, caught the ball and shot it.

The fans in the entire Moda Center raised their hands, preparing to celebrate the joy of scoring. However, the open three-pointer shot by Lillard was unexpectedly blown out!

Leonard card is in position, ready to get a rebound. Choosing to shoot three-pointers in the fast break is really not a safe practice.

The basketball began to fall, and Leonard was also ready to take off. At that moment, Leonard felt that he was held down by something ~www.NovelMTL.com~ unable to move.

In the next second, Leonard only heard the metal crash of the basket, and of course, there was also the roar of the Moda Center like a volcanic eruption!

"It's Ann! He saved Lillard's missed shot, and this guy played a flying dunk through Leonard! Oh my God, An Jie looks unstoppable today!"

Seeing that An Jie could quickly run through the half-court and take off again to make up for the deduction just after blocking himself, Duncan couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

It's nice to be young.

Excited An Jie did a pull-up on the basket before he was willing to land. After he landed, he first hammered his chest and then gave a thumbs up to the audience. 4 to 0, three wonderful shots. From the very beginning, An Jie showed the infinite vitality he obtained because of excitement.

ready or Not? The King of Portland is back! He is not willing to give up his land like this!

Popovich wants to win in Portland? Okay, then try to steal the victory from An Jie himself! Mobile users, please browse and read for a better reading experience.
