The Way of the Center

The winter sun has just risen from the horizon, and the snow on the streets has not yet melted away. This should have been a quiet winter morning, but Portland, the city, has been commotion early.

"My God!" A middle-aged man with glasses yelled in surprise when he saw this scene in front of him.

This middle-aged man is the owner of a Nike franchise store. Today he got up and opened the door as early as usual. However, he had just walked to the door of his store, but he found that there were already long queues of people who came here to buy things!

The boss has opened a shop here for ten years and has never seen such a situation. He hurriedly pushed aside the crowd, and a lot of green dollars had already been delivered by himself!

This guy rushed to start a business, and the fans squeezed into this small franchise store in excitement one by one. When these avid fans walked to the cashier with a pair of basketball shoes, the boss was not surprised when he looked at what they were holding.

This group of people, all came to buy the center of the three generations! Not only this franchise store, but all the places where the first three generations of the Center's Way sneakers are sold in Portland today are all full, and the goods are directly sold out.

Perhaps Nike itself did not expect that this pair of center shoes would be so popular.

Temporarily chose to release the three generations of Center Way on the day after Anjie achieved the historic triple-double. It has to be said that Nike's move is really good. Anjie's performance greatly stimulated consumers, and consumers greatly stimulated Nike's economic growth.

In Portland, the three generations of the center's shoes are "hard to find", but in China, the same thing happens in major cities. Although the sales in Europe and other regions are not so exaggerated, the sales are also very gratifying.

Anjie scored a historical triple-double yesterday and became a live advertisement for Nike. Some people who were not Anjie fans also came here and took home the superstar's sneakers.

Even Yao Ming, who is as far away as China, called Nike directly and bought ten pairs. Later, Yao Ming also sent text messages to joking with An Jie: "Put on your sneakers, I think I can come back."

Nike's exaggerated publicity for Anjie is not just as simple as depositing more money in your bank account. In fact, this is an important step for Anjie to improve his status in international basketball.

Now, everyone who watches basketball all over the world knows that you An Jie is great. Fans all over the world will choose his shoes. An Jie’s strategy of globalization of influence has been reached. Now Nike should think about how big a contract they should give An Jie after the offseason to ensure that An Jie will sign the contract.

Not only Nike, but also many big brands are scrambling to deliver contracts at this time, for fear that Anjie's heat will not get caught up.

It can be said that although the game against the Cavaliers was just an ordinary regular season. But Anjie, through the victory of that game, completely elevated himself to a different position.

Anjie was a big success here, but James has become the most embarrassing person these days. Against the Trail Blazers, James only made 5 of 14 shots, just looking at an impressive 14 points. His poor performance is in sharp contrast to Anjie's general performance in creating history, so in the past few days, James has also pushed himself and the team to the forefront.

Fortunately, the next day, the Cavaliers fighting back-to-back defeated the Milwaukee Bucks at home, avoiding losing streak. Otherwise, the reporters would certainly not let James go easily. After all, James has made such a big noise this summer. If he does not perform well, he will be too disappointed with the expectations of the fans.

The Cavaliers eased, and the Trail Blazers led by Anjie are still winning nonstop. In November, Anjie has become the Player of the Month of the Western Conference. But in December, since that historic triple-double, Anjie's performance seems to be even better than last month.

On December 4, the Pacers lacked Paul George as a guest at Moda Center. Anjie did not show mercy. He scored 23 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. Another triple-double result brought the team to 82-92. victory.

On December 7, the Trail Blazers traveled east to New York, and Anthony once again ran into the Chinese butcher. In this game, Melon's performance was not bad. He scored 23 points and 10 rebounds with a 47% shooting rate. "Nerve Knife" JR Smith came off the bench and scored 20 points.

But Anjie still dominated the game, scoring 28 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. He scored a triple-double in three consecutive games. The Trail Blazers won again with 20 wins and 1 loss, and 10 consecutive victories.

On December 9, the Trail Blazers challenged the rising Pistons for the second consecutive away game. This season, the Pistons are no longer generals. They have the former "CIC" Josh Smith, budding young defender Caldevie Pope, and the powerful center "Zhuang Shen" Drummond of the new era. With the former hope star Jennings of the Bucks and Anjie's old friend DJ Augustine.

Such a lineup, placed in the East, is definitely strong enough. What's more, the Pistons also invited the brother of Angel Teacher, Stan Van Gundy to coach. It can be said that everyone is full of hope for this year's Pistons.

However, the land An Jie walked on will inevitably become a wasteland. In the eyes of Portland fans, he is the king. In the eyes of fans of other teams, Anjie is a terrifying executioner!

Even if Drummond, who is good at defensively, has been fighting with Anjie throughout the game, even if Jennings scored 20 points in return, even if Josh unexpectedly brought Aldridge a lot of trouble. But Anjie eventually became the final winner.

His confidence in Drummond almost collapsed throughout the game, and this guy was even more excited after meeting the strong. He kept tormenting Drummond’s nerves by changing ways. Although Drummond had completed a heavy block on Angel’s head, the only highlight of the whole game was Drummond. That's it.

CIC, footsteps, hooks, dunks... As long as the center forwards can move, An Jie can. Actions that the center can't do, so can Anjie. On the other hand, Drummond, although this guy performed very well in rebounding and defense, but the single offensive "Zhuang Shen" still showed a huge gap between himself and An Jie.

With 25 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists, Anjie's madness is unstoppable.

Last year, almost everyone thought it was Anjie's peak season. But who would have thought that Anjie's performance this year could be even better.

The Trail Blazers made great strides all the way, until Lillard returned from injury in the back-to-back game against the Timberwolves on December 10, and Angel's three consecutive pairs of footsteps finally stopped.

In this game, the Blazers' control of the ball was once again handed over to Lillard. Because of this, Anjie didn't have double figures in assists. But the yellow-skinned No. 00 still used 30 points and 10 rebounds to continue to output double-doubles, and the Trail Blazers' winning streak has also come to a 13-game winning streak.

"Crazy Anjie is about to shake the NBA League!"

"The first person in the active alliance-An Jie!"

"In December, the cover character of Time magazine confirmed that Anjie was selected!"

Anjie, these two words almost bombarded the entire basketball circle. Whether it is a commercial event or a competition site, you can see Anjie's name.

The songs of the Trail Blazers fans linger in the night sky of Portland, and the City of Roses seems to be able to never wither under Anjie's irrigation.

Unknowingly, Anjie and the Trail Blazers have accompanied the fans to Christmas~www.NovelMTL.com~ In the first two days of Christmas, the Trail Blazers' winning streak was finally stopped. Westbrook and Morris, these two guys, may think they should "discipline" their good brothers, so in that game, Westbrook scored 45 points with a 60% shooting rate, and in the final moments Contribute to a three-point lore. Morris gritted his teeth and An Jie held it to the end, successfully limiting An Jie's field goal percentage to 48%. These two guys worked together and became the second person to defeat the Trail Blazers this season.

This season, being able to win the game against the Trail Blazers is a great honor. The Thunder, which fell into a trough due to Durant's season reimbursement this season, also attracted attention because of the victory in this game.

After the game, Anjie, who was playing happily, took the initiative to celebrate the victory of Westbrook and Morris. After all, the loss of this game is not a pain for the Trail Blazers.

With 27 wins and 2 losses, before Christmas, the Lost Trail Blazers were still the best team in the league, none of them.

At this moment, everyone has set their sights on the Christmas War. The matchup between the San Antonio Spurs and the Portland Trail Blazers became the finale of the NBA that day.

This is also the first time that people have a chance to see the Blazers losing streak!

When the Trail Blazers become the best in the league, the entire league will use them as an enemy. Everyone wants to beat the first place to prove themselves, and everyone wants the arrogant Trail Blazers to capsize.

Therefore, people are extremely "expected" to see the Trail Blazers losing streak. Duncan and his San Antonio Spurs have become the "hope" of the league.

A **** holiday is coming soon. It seems that this year, Anjie’s Christmas will not have any festive atmosphere.
