The way of the center

Chapter 24
Koufos and his teammates also came to Ames City with the determination to win. If the sprint is successful in the final stage, then the team may still be invited to the March Madness Championship. Koufos's own draft The ranking may also climb a lot.But today, from the first second of the game, Koufus was completely passive.

"Mike Taylor broke through! He didn't choose the mid-range pull-up jumper he was good at, and Taylor went straight to the inside! Koufos made it up, how will Taylor face the mountain between himself and the basket? Taylor made a layup! Oh no, this is a pass! A no-look pass in the air after a jump, Angie is now unguarded, dunk! Oh my god, this is the first time Angie dunks today Four times! The audience had already dunked four times on Koufos in the middle of the first half. I have never seen Anjie be so aggressive!" The commentator Philips' mouth was not at all There is no time to rest, today's game is fast-paced and very exciting.I don't know why, but the entire Cyclone team has a very strong desire to attack, and it is a completely different team from the previous three games.

"Good job Anjie! Pay attention to Koufus' shooting!" Ricard's passion was also ignited by the players on the field. He has been standing on the sidelines since the beginning of the game, directing and shouting, even for 1 minute. None of them sat down.

Koufus was also anxious, seeing that his draft pick had dropped so low, he couldn't lose to a guy who didn't even participate in the draft.However, judging from the previous few rounds of fighting, he couldn't stand up to this seemingly thin Asian in the interior, and he couldn't fight inside, so he had to give full play to his advantage of long range.

Koufos didn't even step into the three-second zone this time. He didn't stand still after setting a pick-and-roll for his own point guard, and he didn't cut inside like most centers. Instead, he withdrew. Ran to the top of the three-point arc.

Although An Jie knew that this guy had a good three-point shot, he habitually withdrew a little after the opponent completed the pick-and-roll.

"This kid! He's still too young." Divac knew that Anjie's defense had failed this time.

Koufos got an open three-point shot at the top of the arc, but Angie was standing a small step inside the free throw line.

Koufos received the pass and looked at Angie who was running towards him, he was not nervous, this guy is still far away.Soft shot, the arc of the ball flight is very high, but this does not affect its precise fall to the basket.

"Damn it!" An Jie rushed forward to interfere with all his strength, but in the end it was of no avail.He scratched his hair in annoyance, the loss of points this time was simply too stupid.

Koufus finally had some confidence in his heart, and his scoring shortage was finally broken.It seems that although this Asian center has a strong interior defense, his exterior defense is weak.Koufos decided to use his strengths to avoid weaknesses, and he planned to use his peripheral firepower to shoot Anjie to death.

However, can a center who can only shoot from the outside still play its due power?
After a skilled pick-and-roll with Mike Taylor, Anjie directly held the ball outside the free throw line.And in front of him was still the Greek who was guarding the three-second zone with open arms.Those thick arms kept waving in front of An Jie's eyes, interfering with An Jie's view of the basket.

Sink your shoulders and step to the right.Anjie has never attacked the opponent's penalty area so directly. This is more like the play style of the physically strong Morris.But facing such an opponent today, An Jie finally tasted the sweetness brought about by superiority in strength.He pressed his left shoulder against Koufos's chest, relying on his strength advantage to break through forcefully.

After the forced breakthrough, Anjie was half a body ahead of Koufos, but half a body was enough for Anjie.He kicked the ground with both feet, and all the muscles in his legs were tense.After exerting all his strength, An Jie raised the basketball with his long arms, and then directly smashed the ball into the basket.What about Koufus?After he took off, he found that he couldn't reach the basketball in An Jie's hands, let alone block the shot.All he could do was silently watch the yellow-skinned guy complete his performance from behind.

The corners of Morris' mouth on the hospital bed of "this kid" twitched slightly. The scene just now reminded him of the scene when he first met An Jie.It's just that he was the one who "tortured" An Jie in this way. .

The basket made a painful "groan", the basketball hoop kept shaking, and Anjie hit head-to-head again and again. He had no intention of backing down in the face of Koufos.This is the fifth time, this is already the fifth time An Jie has done this today.And An Jie promised in his heart that there will be another one soon!
I heard that after Koufos's state has recovered a lot recently, the scouts of NBA teams are full of interest in him again.But judging from today's performance, Koufos is at a disadvantage even against such a thin opponent, so after entering the NBA, what deterrence does he have in the interior?The scouts sitting in the auditorium shook their heads one after another, and Koufos's pick unknowingly dropped a lot.

Koufos was most afraid of Anjie's flexible inside footsteps and superb back-up skills before the game. Many people have already done experiments for Koufos, and he does not want to be the next victim.But he never imagined that this opponent didn't need to use those things when facing him, because he could score with a simple and rude breakthrough.Is my own strength so weak?Koufus began to worry about his future.

which performed!which performed!Koufos is obsessed with getting a chance to perform.He faithfully carried out the order in his heart. A 2-meter big center kept wandering outside the three-point line, and he didn't even intend to step into the three-second zone.

"I'll leave it to you, buddy!" An Jie saw that Koufus still planned to use shooting to solve the problem, so he turned his head and instructed Asakin behind him.

"Don't worry, I will carry the restricted area."

An Jie smiled slightly, stepped out of the inside line and ran towards Koufus.

When a hungry lion walks out of its territory to go out to kill, it must be very miserable as a prey.

Koufos received a pass from his teammate outside the three-point line in the bottom corner, and Anjie still didn't stick tightly. Koufos was ready to shoot without even thinking about it. He didn't want to waste his fiery touch now.

Just the same as before, take off, aim, and shoot.But when Koufos jumped to the highest point and was about to throw the basketball in his hand, a long arm quickly stretched out from under his nose.

"What!? That guy was two steps away from me just now!" Koufus couldn't believe that An Jie could block him so quickly.

The shooting of inside players generally has a disadvantage, that is, the shooting speed is slow, and the longer the shooting range, the more obvious it is.The slower the shot, the more time An Jie can pounce on.Inside players do not rely on quick releases in order to avoid blocks, but on their own high release points.However, the advantage of Koufos's high shot point disappeared in front of Anjie. Anjie used an action almost hitting a volleyball spike to slap the basketball thrown by Koufos directly into the audience.

Angie glared into Koufus' eyes when he landed, but he didn't say a word.

"Don't think that you can escape my pursuit by escaping outside the three-point line!" That look helped An Jie say this.

Kufos looked at An Jie's eyes and felt a little apprehensive. What is this for?Does he have to fight himself hard in a regular season?The unlucky Greek, Anjie didn't target him or have any dissatisfaction with him, he just had to work so hard to give Morris a gift.It's just a pity that Kufos was unlucky to be a victim of Anjie's plan.

Ohio State University's foul ball was sent, and Angie still didn't use close defense on Koufus.But even so, Koufos didn't dare to take another rash shot after receiving the ball.He knew that there was a violent guy in front of him staring at him covetously.

Can't hit the inside line, dare not shoot outside line.Anjie's deterrence on the defensive end has completely nailed Koufos to death. Koufos can only be used as a transfer on the court now, constantly picking and rolling or supporting his teammates.

Koufus stopped on the offensive end, but Anjie will not!He continued to wreak havoc in the paint, and Koufos felt like his body was falling apart.Who said this guy is just a technical center, his rough play today has no skills at all.

The two jerseys on An Jie's body were completely soaked, but he didn't feel tired at all.

Divac off the field was already grinning from ear to ear. Anjie's thin body has always been the biggest obstacle restricting his development.Although Kufos's own strength is really not good, but Anjie has a complete advantage in the confrontation with such a large weight difference.Whether it's Asakin, who is now a teammate, or Koufus, who can't find his way on the field, Anjie has used his own efforts to prove that he can use training to overcome his weight disadvantage, not to mention that Anjie's own weight is also It is constantly rising with the strength of the upper and lower limbs.

"Maybe this kid doesn't, he will definitely be able to do better than me in the NBA." Divac leaned back on the chair with ease, and Anjie had nothing to worry about in this game.

The camera in Wu Hua's hands has not stopped working since the beginning of the competition. There are so many things that can be photographed in this competition.Stimulating and exciting dunks time after time, fierce blocks one after another, of course, he also captured the rare murderous eyes on the face of that humble and shy big boy in life.

"Oh!" With another exclamation from the audience, Wu Hua raised his camera again and aimed at An Jie.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the halftime game, Koufos finally had a chance to breathe.That damn 20-minute half was more tiring for him than playing a full game.At least for the next 15 minutes, Koufos won't have to be stared at by the yellow-skinned guy.

42 to 55, the Cyclones led by 13 points at halftime.Although there are still 10 minutes to go, Koufus feels that he is powerless.He just wants to end this damn game quickly and get away from that damn Chinese.

The Cyclones played a perfect first half, and the way they completed the offense also made the fans hooked.There is only icy goose feather snow outside the gymnasium, but the temperature inside the gymnasium is almost melting.
