The Way of the Center

Chapter 63



Chapter 63 : Hastily ended

The 76ers players came out of the locker room with ease. This game was truly a warm-up match. They hadn’t even played their full strength before defeating the Thunder.

After seeing the opponent’s starting lineup in the second half, the 76ers players were even more relaxed. The Thunder actually sent three rookies at once. Except for Kevin Durant, who has proven himself to be excusable, it would be unreasonable for the other two to follow the lead. However, the opponents gave such a gift, the 76ers players can only laugh.

After playing with the main lineups of both sides, An Jie felt the tremendous pressure that NBA fast-paced basketball put on the inside players. Whenever he finishes sending the baseline and is still running behind, Westbrook and his teammates have already advanced to the frontcourt and are ready to attack.

As soon as Anjie ran into the opponent’s half, he immediately made a pick-and-roll for Westbrook. You should know that when he is in the Tornado team, he usually needs to be in position first, and then he proposes to pick and roll. It’s good now, the fast offensive rhythm allows him to directly omit many steps.

Westbrook passed Louis Williams easily after borrowing the pick-and-roll. Williams was still out of breath today and was frequently broken by this first-year rookie. The most important thing is that he has nothing to do with this rookie!

Seeing this shocking child rushing in again, Dalembert was a little bit undecided. Is it with Fang Anjie? Or should I leave this child to Thaddeus Young?

Without time to think about it, Dalembert withdrew from the penalty area and followed Angela out.

Iguodala has been staring at the guy with amazing wingspan in front of him. He believes that Westbrick will definitely break through and score the ball in the end, and the biggest threat to the Thunder is the guy named Durant in front of him. Second grader!

as predicted! When Westbrook was about to take off and attack the frame, Durant suddenly started! He is going to pick it up!

“Don’t think of the NBA too simple!” Iguodala meditated in his heart, he didn’t hesitate at all, and immediately followed Durant to move.

“Boom!” That wall again! Iguodala hit Anjie for the second time today! An Jie made a beautiful off-the-ball pick and roll that helped Durant get rid of the defense.

Westbrook’s breakthrough once again attracted the attention of the 76ers’ defensive players, and Durant, who was waiting in the corner, was left unattended.

As Iguodala expected, Westbrook split the ball without hesitation after seeing Durant in the open position. It wasn’t until this time that people realized that Iguodala had been greatly slowed down by Anjie.

This slightly shy big man took the ball and shot, Iguodala tried his best to interfere, but Durant showed his calmness and maturity that he shouldn’t have at his age.

Basketball hollowed into the net, An Jie contributed a lot to two consecutive pick-and-rolls.

“It’s them again!” Iguodala gritted his teeth. These two 08-level rookies always seem to make the game a little bit unexpected.

once again cooperated and attacked, and the three of them cooperated very happily. Although An Jie did all dirty work and tiring work, he was not unhappy at all. You only deserve to have a reward if you pay first.

is not just offense, the simultaneous appearance of these three people also makes the Thunder’s defense different.

The first is that Westbrook completely blocked off Louis Williams’ firepower at the back line. Judging from the performance on the court, Louis Williams is more like an inexperienced rookie, while Westbrook is more like an inexperienced rookie. Like a veteran, he completely blocked his opponent from the three-point line.

Seeing that Williams could not attack on his own, Dalembert, who was in a good position, raised his hand for the ball. Today he hasn’t had a formal duel with this Chinese boy. How many catties An Jie is, Dalembert is also full of curiosity in his heart.

Although Dalembert is not a star center, his double-double stats of 10.5 points and 10.4 rebounds per game last season have kept him above a high level. After all, there are only a few star centers in the league. Among the rest, Dalembert doesn’t think he is worse than anyone else.

Back hitting is not good, he knows that his low post ability is poor. So Dalembert turned around with the ball, but when he faced the basket, he realized that he had been blocked by the Chinese with his hands high and could not see anything!

“Don’t give me a chance!?” Dalembert seemed to overestimate his own strength. Now he can only try to protect the ball. An Jie has narrowed his chance of attacking the frame to almost nothing.

After barely passing the ball to Iguodala, Dalembert was sweating profusely. The Thunder might really rise here! Look at the impact and speed of the zero guard! Let’s take a look at the defensive awareness and height of this Chinese center! If these two guys grow up together with Durant, the consequences are simply unimaginable!

After finishing offensively, Durant’s performance on the defensive end was much more positive than just before. Now Iguodala wants to get rid of the entanglement of this gibbon, it is not as easy as before.

The helpless Iguodala could only rely on his strong body to force a breakthrough. Who knew that he had just taken the first step, and he hit the “wall” again.

An Jie had a firm foothold on Iguodala’s breakthrough route early, and this was also thanks to Durant’s efforts to slow down the speed of Iguodala’s breakthrough, so that An Jie had time to be in place.

An Jie leaned back exaggeratedly after being hit, and even Durant was taken aback by the strength. Only Iguodala knew that he hadn’t rushed up at all, how could it be possible to use such a great force.

“Dudu, dribbling the ball and hitting someone, an offensive foul!” The referee couldn’t see how Iguodala hit him. He only knew that the big man fell to the ground severely, and he must have endured it. impact.

“Huh! Shameless guy!” Iguodala just cursed silently in his heart. He has seen this kind of thing a lot in the NBA, and he will not get angry because of this.

“It’s okay!” Durant hurriedly picked up the yellow-skinned teammate. It seems that Augustine was right. He is really a very good guy.

“It’s okay, it’s okay for us to attack, come on!” An Jie just faked his chest, Divac forcibly held back in the box before he didn’t laugh. This acting is really learned!

After Anjie’s wonderful performance, the Thunder also got the ball as they wished. This is the first time An Jie has brought his talent for acting to the NBA arena. Of course, if you think that An Jie only relied on flops to get to this point, then you are very wrong.

After several excellent performances, Anjie also completely gained the trust of the Thunder teammates. Therefore, in this offense, Westbrook originally handed the ball to Durant, but Durant saw that An Jie was in a good position, so he dropped the ball into the penalty area.

“An Jie took the ball behind his back! This is the second time he has won the ball today!” All basketball fans across China focused. An Jie’s first goal was an open mid-range shot. From this to judge Anjie’s offensive ability. But now, Anjie is firmly leaning against Dalembert!

“The defense is good, and the offense is not good.” Dalembert has no time to follow NCAA games, so he doesn’t know Anjie’s level. What kind of opponent is the most terrifying? Of course, the unknown opponent is the most terrifying.

After holding the ball, Anjie decided to use a low post attack to achieve the goal of scoring. He took a deep breath and prepared to exert his strength!

Shoot the ball! Sit back! Push hard! An Jie’s vigorous first move made Dalembert, who was underprepared, take a big step back!

“Here! How many catties is he!” Dalembert, like everyone who fought with An Jie, couldn’t believe that this thin body could burst out so much power. What vision does the Thunder have? All the weirdos are selected by them!

Dalembert made enough preparations for the second time, but he was still a little backed by An Jie’s powerful impact. You know, since Ricard called Anjie to gain weight last year, strength training has also followed Anjie and has never stopped. If An Jie can’t improve after so long of training, then it’s really unreasonable.

There is still a small step away from the three-second zone, but it doesn’t matter, An Jie has already thought of a way to deal with it.

saw Anjie holding the ball with both hands, suddenly turned around and took three steps towards the three-second zone.

“This is!?” Dalembo tried his best to block An Jie’s path with his chest, but An Jie didn’t intend to go to the basket at all, he just wanted to walk into the three-second zone from the side.

After two big strides, An Jie took off on one foot and raised the basketball with his right hand high. With his side facing the basket, An Jie made a very stretched hook.

Dalembert estimated that An Jie had broken in the wrong direction. When he reacted to the jump and blocked, An Jie had already shot the basketball.

This kind of big hook is often used by traditional centers. The fans and even some players on the field have not seen it for some days. The ball was completed very smoothly, showing the kind of beauty that belongs to the center forward of the 1990s.

“Anjie! Beautiful big hook! I scored again!” After seeing the goal, most Chinese fans waved their fists and applauded. The young man didn’t have any bad hand feeling, nor did he show any discomfort with the NBA rhythm. He scored two perfect goals, whether it was an offensive choice or a final blow, and they did it beautifully.

“Hey! Good spread!” An Jie did not forget to praise Durant, and Durant also patted An Jie’s **** cheerfully. He hasn’t experienced the thrill of team combat for a long time.

Under the excellent performance of this rookie trio, the 76ers gradually lost complete control of the game, and the Thunder gradually narrowed the point difference. But when P.J. Carlesimo will take Anjie and Durant down, the Thunder are beaten back to their original form. Westbrook, who lacked support, really acted like a rookie at this time. He made frequent mistakes on the court and was at a loss. Later, when Anjie played Durant and Westbrook rested, the same situation happened to Anjie.

On the defensive end, An Jie was able to perform well, but on the offensive end An Jie did not even play a tacit pick-and-roll coordination. The other players in the Thunder are playing too unruly, and P.J. Kalesimo does not draw detailed running and pick-and-roll routes like Ricard.

Presti can see that only when these three people are present at the same time can they complement each other and achieve excellent game effects. And if they were taken out to lead the team alone, they did not do enough. But there is no way, these three people are too young, it is idiotic to want them to be alone now. Although the three of them have awe-inspiring talents, the tuition fees they have to pay are still indispensable.

In this way, the 76ers opened up some points difference in the second half of the third quarter. By the end of the third quarter, the score became 80 to 69. The defensive strength of both sides in the preseason was not strong, so the score was also Hit a little high.

In the fourth quarter, PJ Carlesimo directly put all three boys on the bench, relying on the rest of the Thunder team to fight in order to hope to see three rookies in addition to People stand up. However, neither he nor Presti saw the surprise as they wished. The fourth quarter of the game was simply a 12-minute carnage! The rest of the Thunder couldn’t withstand the fierce attacks of the 76ers on the court, and they didn’t have the ability to counterattack very well.

Puzzle players are also an indispensable part of a team. Obviously, such players are still lacking in the current Thunder team. Presti knows that if they don’t quickly make some valuable deals, they will probably still face the bottom of the season this season.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the other Thunder players seemed to have heard the sound of nature, and they all let out a sigh of relief. The trip to **** was finally over.

110 to 96, the remaining players of the Thunder allowed the 76ers to score 30 points in the fourth quarter! Originally, this section was a chance given to them by P.J. Carlesimo to prove themselves, but they didn’t expect all of them to play the role.

Anjie and Westbrook performed well. In the limited playing time, Anjie scored 8 points and 6 rebounds on 4 of 5 shots, while Westbrook scored 12 points and 4 assists. The most dazzling person with the Thunder’s data is Kevin Durant. With 22 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, he further consolidated his leadership position in the Thunder.

The first professional basketball game between Anjie and Westbrook ended in such a bleak ending. In the eyes of outsiders, the data of these two little guys is not amazing. Only Presti in the box knows that this team has a clear future now Book friends are welcome to visit and read.
