The way of the center

Chapter 356 Mr. Billionaire's Quiz
Paul George, you probably never heard the name of this second-year rookie before this season. He was selected with the 2010th pick in the first round in [-], and he has never been the focus of the spotlight.

In the first season, George's performance was mediocre, which is very in line with his tenth overall rookie status.But George was unwilling to do so. When he was selected with the tenth overall pick, the young George was very frustrated.However, his manager used Anjie to give George a positive example.

"Don't be discouraged by George, do you know Ann? He was unknown in college, and he missed the chance to be selected by the Heat at the second place in the draft. He had high hopes and fell to the No.12 pick, and just now As soon as he was selected, he was traded away. But now? I believe that after Ann returns, he can still kill all directions. Because, you and him are the same kind of people! The order of the draft does not mean anything." The manager said Paul George has always kept these words in his heart.

Therefore, although the age difference is not much, Anjie can be regarded as one of George's idols.So this season, George, who is struggling and already talented, has improved significantly, and in this game against Anjie, who has always inspired him, George is very excited.

But fantasies are often beautiful. George thought that there would be an unforgettable confrontation between him and An Jie.However, it turns out that his dream was only half realized.

This is indeed an unforgettable game for Paul George, but it can hardly be called a "matchup".Because this is not a confrontation, it is a massacre!

Before the game, Paul George took the initiative to go up to say hello to Anjie, and Anjie also had a friendly chat with George.Anjie's personality made it easy for him to get close to others, but when the game started, everything changed drastically.

In the first game after signing the [-] million yuan contract, An Jie certainly wanted to prove himself very much.Those bashers who say he's not worth the price are waiting to see Angie's jokes.

However, within a few minutes of the game, Paul George and those who questioned Anjie realized that they were so wrong.

An Jie, who was friendly off the court, seemed to be a completely different person on the court.He was so brutal and vicious that he blocked Anjie this time and fanned Daniel Granger out of the baseline at the same time, but he still didn't show any mercy.

On the offensive end, Roy Hibbert was played to death by Anjie's footsteps.In the past, Hibbert was always able to take advantage of his height in the confrontation, but today, he found that his advantage was useless at all.Not only did An Jie's height not suffer, but he was even one centimeter taller than Hibbert!
Anjie's dunks in this game have decreased a lot, but the goals after shaking Hibbert through the low footsteps have increased.

Seeing Anjie's performance, Hibbert also plans to go to the Olajuwon training camp this summer to try.But those are things for later, now, he should think about how to prevent An Jie from winning.

Vicious, bloodthirsty, desperate to win.This is Paul George's interpretation of Anjie's image on the court.No wonder Garnett would say that Anjie is a bastard just like him. Judging from his performance in this game, Anjie really deserves the praise from the veteran.

"Paul George broke through again! It's too fast, fast and high. It can be seen that Wesley Matthews has worked very hard, but the young George is obviously better."

At this moment, the game has reached the fourth quarter, and Paul George once again easily broke through Matthews' defense.This is not because Matthews is not good at defending, but because George's breakthrough ability is too strong!
If you switch to another team, George will definitely be happy for his successful breakthrough.But facing the Trail Blazers, when you break through their perimeter players, your real challenge has just arrived.

Paul George looked up and observed the penalty area, and Anjie was still entangled with Roy Hibbert outside the three-second zone.This is a fleeting opportunity!George was not willing to give up.

He continued to accelerate, hoping to get the ball in before Anjie came back from the defense.His shooting percentage in this game is really horrible. He needs to seize every opportunity to score, and seize every opportunity when Anjie is not in the three-second zone.

Paul George jumped high, hoping to score with a tomahawk dunk.However, when he just flew into the air, he felt that his eyes suddenly went dark.

"No way!" George turned his head to look, and Anjie had jumped up from his side at this moment, ready to block this dunk!

Now it is too late to pass the ball temporarily.The rest of the Trail Blazers blocked George's passing route very well. George could only pray that he could escape under Anjie's hands.

It's a pity that An Jie is an atheist. An Jie can't hear George's prayer, and God has nothing to do with it.

All he knew was that he had to fan the basketball away from the basket.No matter who the attacker is, they are equally merciless.

"Crack!" Then the crisp sound still appeared.George slammed into the basket with one hand, but the basketball was already out of his control.

After landing, An Jie didn't even look at George, so he rushed forward and followed his teammates for a fast break.Although Anjie is a big center, transition offense is not his specialty.But every time, An Jie would try his best to run along with the little teammates.Not to mention, it is precisely because of this initiative that An Jie can score a lot of points in the fast break.

Facing Daniel Granger who quickly retreated, Jamal Crawford jumped at him without fear.

"Are you looking for a risk!?" Granger, as the head star of the Pacers, also played very poorly in this game.He has been waiting for an opportunity to avenge his shame, and now it seems that this opportunity has come to him!

It was indeed difficult for Jamal Crawford to score the ball under Granger's defense, but from the beginning, Crawford had no intention of attacking the frame by himself.

After he took off, he just passed the basketball back, and immediately after, Granger felt a gust of wind hang over his face.Next, he heard the loud bang from the basket again.

Looking up, sure enough, it was An Jie hanging on the basket!
85 to 70, with Anjie scoring the ball, the point difference in this game once again came to 15 points.Granger today in the Trail Blazers, especially in Anjie's inside defense, only 11 of 3 shots.Facing his idol, Paul George only scored 11 points, 15 of 5.

Instead of improving, their poor performance continued to the end.

After Anjie dunked the goal, there were only 2 minutes left in the game.His dunk almost killed the game!

Afterwards, Ricard relievedly replaced all the starting five Tigers of the Trail Blazers.But even so, the Pacers still couldn't get up.

75 to 92, this is the final score of the game.Paul George's first encounter with an idol was definitely not a pleasant experience.

安杰此役砍下了25分15个篮板10次助攻的三双数据，他的表现，也让所有质疑他获得大合同的人都闭上了嘴。阿尔德里奇这个开拓者队的二当家也用11中10的夸张命中率砍下了21分，他也用表现一举击破了有关“开拓者队只是靠着安杰赢球”的言论。

Anjie is indeed very dazzling, but this does not mean that only one Anjie can stand out for the Trail Blazers.The reason why the Trail Blazers are now ranked in the top four in the Western Conference is not only because of how strong Anjie is, but because of how strong their team is!

"The gap is really big." Paul George looked around in disappointment. Anjie's draft pick was lower than his at the beginning, but now, he has become the ruler on the basketball court.This game really made him clearly realize the strength gap between himself and the top players.Maybe in the future, I have to work harder to create a world in the NBA.

"Hey, George, I'm sorry today." Just as the young George was still thinking, An Jie stepped forward and took off his jersey at George.

"If I said that you played very well, then I must be lying. But I have to say, I appreciate your hard work." After speaking, Anjie handed his jersey to George.

George was stunned for a second, then quickly took off his jersey and put An Jie's jersey on his body.

"Don't worry, Ann, if we meet again in the future, the game won't be so boring." George smiled at An Jie. For An Jie, the nickname "butcher" was only limited to the field.

Off the court, Anjie is definitely a likable guy.

"I remember what you said about George, I hope the confrontation between us will be more exciting in the future." An Jie put George's team on his shoulders and turned to leave.

Paul George's performance in this game can only be described as bad. Facing the high-intensity defense, George couldn't think of anything to do except anxiously hit the iron.It stands to reason that he should not enjoy the honor of exchanging jerseys with his opponents.

But An Jie seemed to see his own shadow in George.He is stubborn, he longs to become stronger, and most importantly, he is not content with the status quo!The tenth pick is not what he wants, what he wants is the same performance as the No. [-] pick!

If Anjie now knows that George will become his and the Trail Blazers' rival in the near future, then he will definitely not say so many words of encouragement to a dangerous guy.After all, it is better to have fewer troublemakers.

In any case, Anjie's first game after signing the big contract finally came to a successful conclusion.The performance of another billionaire did not disappoint the outside world.

Although 25 points is less than Anjie's average this season, the overall triple-double data is still very convincing.

An Jie did not forget those fans who held signs and shouted their names in the sunset and worshiped themselves as heroes.If we say that at the beginning, Anjie joined the Trail Blazers to continue his career, and then Anjie led the team to victory to prove that he can.So from that moment yesterday, An Jie really fell in love with this city, and he also really wanted to fight for this city and bring honor to the city of tearing.

Towards this goal, Anjie will continue to go forward bravely.In the second half of the season, they will face many powerful enemies.But as long as he thinks of the scene yesterday afternoon and his teammates, An Jie will be fearless!

Although he is another billionaire in the NBA, he can't accomplish any feats by himself.

But now, Anjie has fans who support him, teammates who are willing to work hard with him, a coach who tailors tactics for him, and of course, a management team that absolutely supports him 100%.

An Jie now has all the conditions for success, and the final result depends on how An Jie uses everything around him to meet people's expectations.

Today's victory over the Pacers is just a small attempt by Mr. Yi million.After that, An Jie and his team will defeat more and stronger opponents.Until the day they lift the O'Brien Cup, this pace will temporarily slow down.
