The Way of the Center

"Fucking!" Seeing the Rockets score on the defensive Trail Blazers in less than seven seconds, even Ricard had to sigh with emotion.

"The Rockets are playing very fast, we must take the initiative to suppress the rhythm. Otherwise, sooner or later, D'Antoni will be led by the nose." Divac began to discuss with Ricard on the side.

"Press the rhythm? As long as Chris Paul can rush up, we will never be able to suppress the rhythm! Rarely, do you want Napier to completely contain Paul? Damn injury!" Ricard could not help cursing, this When Lillard was there, everything was much simpler.

"Then let the Rockets run away like this?"

"Don't worry about Vlad, the soldiers will come to block, the water will cover. Look again, we will always have a way." Ricard held his hands and stood on the sidelines. Today, the ruffian coach can no longer sit on the bench and then tilt up. Erlang kicked his legs.

"It's okay, it's okay! We're going back, just a ball, it's nothing!" After the Rockets successfully scored with an extremely beautiful running and bombing method, An Jie also shouted to cheer for his teammates.

The Rockets’ offense was really wonderful, but Anjie didn’t want his teammates to lose confidence when they came up.

After being encouraged, Napier was able to control the ball calmly in front of him, but just after half-time, after seeing Paul coming up, Napier started to panic again.

"Ball!" While the panicked Napier was still thinking about how to play this tactic, An Jie's roar reached his ears.

Napier didn't hesitate, if it was Angel who called to pass the ball, then pass the ball directly to him, it must be right!

Anjie received Napier's pass from the three-point line, and the Swiss center Capella had to open his arms and run to a defensive area where he was not good at it.

After that, everyone found out. The position where Anjie is now standing is exactly where Napier was tactically. In other words, An Jie has now taken the ball and intends to be the number one position to organize the offense by himself!

Seeing this, the Blazers immediately began to move in accordance with the tactics. The entire system of the Trail Blazers went into operation immediately, and the entire offense began to go on track!

An Jie saw that in front of him, except for Capela, he was completely drawn out. So it was decided that he wanted to play alone with this ball!

Anjie began to dribble the ball with one hand like a guard, and direct his teammates to move with the other. Capella stared at the front intently, but An Jie was not afraid of the Swiss at all, he would definitely eat it later!

The biggest problem with Capella, the **** guy, is his doubtful basketball IQ. This guy can't read the game well, and the defense is basically a little worse. He mostly relies on his body to eat, and he is easily dribbled by his opponent.

Unfortunately, at this moment, standing in front of Capela preparing to attack, perhaps the most dribbling center on the planet!

An Jie started to lower his weight, alternating his left and right hands to dribble. Capela also had to lower the center of gravity, but such a defensive posture makes Capela, who is accustomed to inside defense, very unaccustomed.

Just as the distance between the two parties kept shrinking, Anjie suddenly paused, then immediately changed direction and pierced towards Capella's left!

"Beautiful dribbling action, you can hardly imagine An Ran is a center with a height of 2.19 meters! Just like back then, it is also difficult for us to imagine that Durant, a guy with a tall and long arm, can actually dribble the ball."

Under Jeff Van Gundy’s exclamation, Capella tried his best to change her center of gravity and leaned towards Anjie.

Although Capella's movements are very embarrassing, it seems that he can really prevent An Jie from breaking through!

"The play is broken!" D'Antoni looked at the court triumphantly. This time, Capella successfully completed the defense!

The moment An Jie and Capella came into contact with each other, just when everyone thought that An Jie's breakthrough ended here.

An Jie, who had just completed the change of direction and breakthrough, leaned on Capella again, and turned to the right with him as the axis!

An Jie's superb stride and dribbling movement made D'Antoni grow his mouth. And Capella? He just changed his center of gravity to the left, only to feel a gust of wind blowing, and then An Jie disappeared.

"Beautiful follow-up action! When everyone thought that Ann's breakthrough had failed, he broke all doubts with a beautiful turn! This is the first person in the league! The first person in the league will not fail so easily. !"

With the cheers of the fans, Anjie jumped high after stepping into the free throw line. Ryan Anderson didn't dare to step forward to stop him, he didn't want to be the background of An Jie's dunks.

In this unobstructed situation, An Jie stretched out in the air, and after gliding for a certain distance, he slammed the ball into the basket with one hand!

"Tomahawk-style slashing! Ann showed the violent aesthetics to the fullest! Look at this trembling basket, this is why Ryan Anderson dare not step forward to obstruct it!"

An Jie dunks, landed, beat his chest, and roared. The fans in the Moda Center raised their arms and yelled along with their king.

Paul even felt that the entire basketball court was shaking in this frenetic atmosphere. That guy An Jie, as always, is not easy to deal with!

An Jie's goal was not just as simple as giving the Trail Blazers two points. The improvement of the morale of his teammates is the return that Anjie hopes most.

The blood and passion of all the players were awakened by the offense that An Jie just made. Chris Paul was the first guy to feel the change. Now he wants to take the ball to the three-point line calmly, but it's not as easy as he just did.

Although Napier still cannot force Paul to make mistakes, it is impossible to completely prevent Paul from advancing. But as long as the opponent feels uncomfortable in the offense, Napier can be considered a success.

This time, the scene of the Rockets completing the offense in seven seconds did not reappear. The Blazers' defense is very tight. Whether you are Paul or Capella, everyone has been treated closely.

No matter how powerful Paul's pass is, it is impossible to pass the ball without any gaps. The Rockets' tactics failed to come out, so they could only be solved by the personal abilities of the stars.

In the end, although James Harden still relied on his superb skills, he used a step-back jumper to score two points on George's head. But D'Antoni knows that if the Rockets continue to fight like this, the ending will definitely not look good!

"Did you see Vlad? There are some things that we don't need to worry about." Seeing that Anjie made a big change in the team's state with just one offense, Ricard laughed proudly.

After the game, the two sides attacked and defended each other. An Jie's guest appearance at the No. 1 position left the Rockets helpless. The Rockets' fast running and bombing did indeed put a lot of pressure on the Blazers.

But overall, under the close defense of the Trail Blazers, Anjie still prevailed at home.

At the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers temporarily led the Rockets by five points 20-25.

D'Antoni is already a little panicked at the moment, the five-point gap is not too big, but if the opponent is the Blazers and the battlefield is still the Moda center, then everything is different.

The Trail Blazers are notoriously hard to track down points, and they are also notoriously capable of widening the gap. Their defense and conversion offense will make you fall behind by double digits inadvertently.

During this break, D'Antoni seemed particularly busy. On the Trail Blazers side, everything is proceeding step by step.

The second quarter of the game is coming soon, and the second quarter has just begun. The Chinese fans who are watching the game in front of the TV cheered again.

This time it wasn't because An Jie scored another incredible goal. In fact, An Jie is sitting on the bench and hasn't played yet.

The reason why the Chinese fans cheered is because another Chinese player, Zhou Qi, went into battle at the beginning of the second quarter!

"That kid in your country won't cause us too much trouble, right." Seeing Zhou Qi, who was the same height and arm length, stepped onto the court, Iguodala couldn't help but elbow and stabbed An Jie next to him.

"I can't say for sure, Andre. That kid Zhou, but it's an X factor." Anjie began to look at the court seriously. From the perspective of the Trail Blazers, he certainly didn't want Zhou Qi to play too well. . But from the perspective of a Chinese player, Anjie hopes that Zhou Qi can perform well.

At this time, An Jie was really contradictory, that is, under this contradictory psychology, the two sides played against each other in the second quarter.

On the first offense in the opening game, Zhou Qi and Eric Gordon completed a high-quality pick-and-roll cooperation.

The latter used the pick-and-roll to go directly to the basket. Nurkic, who was a little slower, had no time to make up the defense, and the Rockets recovered two points.

In the second attack, Zhou Qi and Gordon repeated their old tricks. Only this time, Gordon did not attack the frame by himself after bypassing the pick-and-roll, but suddenly divided the ball and passed the basketball to Zhou Qi, who was unmarked outside the three-point line.

Zhou Qi didn't hesitate, and shot from beyond the three-point line. This may be the reason why D'Antoni likes Zhou Qi. The Chinese boy's range is very suitable for the Rockets' bombardment.

Meyers Leonard's interference was still a step too late, Zhou Qi was not affected in any way, and this three-pointer also went straight into the net.

In just two rounds, the Rockets evened the score~www.NovelMTL.com~ and the two goals were also accomplished by Zhou Qi and Gordon using the pick-and-roll.

Ricard looked at An Jie. It was obvious that he wanted to ask An Jie why he didn't remind Zhou Qi that he was so threatening.

But An Jie just opened his hands with an innocent look. He said that Zhou Qi is an X factor. It doesn't matter if he can't play, D'Antoni has someone who can replace it. But once it's played, it won't be very beneficial to the Blazers.

After the Blazers' offense, Evan Turner's breakthrough layup was blocked by Zhou Qi. After the Rockets attacked, Zhou Qi received a pass from Gordon at the basket and forced a layup.

Although the thin Zhou Qi was knocked directly to the ground by Nurkic, the basketball fell into the net in a ghostly manner, and Zhou Qi got a chance to hit a three-pointer!

After standing on the free throw line, Zhou Qi, with a soft touch, did not disappoint his teammates. This guy steadily scored the ball and made a three-pointer!

The fans of the Trail Blazers are all staying at this time. Could it be the Moda Center, is it really a blessing for the Chinese players?

"Your compatriot is in good shape today!" Before the game, Ricard didn't expect Zhou Qi to become a threat. His appearance actually allowed the Rockets to overtake the score.

This guy always has a short-lived performance during the regular season, but Ricard did not expect that this time, the flowers will bloom in the Moda Center.

"Don't worry, Zhou Qi is still too young, he can't change the situation. After the ball is dead, I will defend him personally!" An Jie smiled at Ricard and walked to the technical stage eagerly Register and prepare to play.

Chinese Derby? Since playing against Yao Ming in his rookie season, he has never seen him again.

An Jie became excited. After a while, whether Zhou Qi is a compatriot or not, An Jie will not be softened...
