The way of the center

Chapter 361 The situation in Jiaozuo

An Jie and Camby had been teammates for a season, but seeing this scene, An Jie was still very surprised.

"Marcus Camby's block is very beautiful, he cleanly stifled the Knicks' offense! Moreover, he actually roared loudly at Shumpert!" Mike Breen has seen in the second quarter Too many exciting scenes, first Anjie's catching and throwing, and now Marcus Camby's explosive defense.Because of Anjie's existence, this team has undergone too many changes.Even the "stubborn" 38-year-old veteran was ignited by Anjie.

Shumpert was only a first-year rookie, and he was completely stunned by the 38-year-old veteran's yelling, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

Fortunately, JR Smith came over and took the initiative to push Camby away, and Shumpert found a step down.

"Okay Marcus, this is just a regular season." Smith knew that their breakthrough in the first quarter might have angered Camby, but there was no way, in order to win, they had to use all means.

When everyone on the Knicks team ran back to defend in their own half, Camby gave Angie a thumbs up on the bench.He was signaling An Jie to take a good rest, everything in the penalty area is now on his shoulders!

"Marcus Camby's pick-and-roll is very active. God, I don't know what happened to this 38-year-old guy. But the unlucky Knicks, it is no longer easy to get on the Trail Blazers second team. Got the point." As soon as the commentator finished speaking, Courtney Lee made a direct shot after borrowing Camby's pick-and-roll.

Novak, whose defense was delayed by Camby, couldn't effectively stop Lee. Courtney Lee was also relentless and made a three-pointer. .

Mike Woodson's face is full of black lines now. He originally thought that after Anjie left the field, the game would return to the Knicks again.But judging from the current situation, it is not the Knicks that are gaining momentum, but the Blazers!
The two big plans he arranged before the game have all been cracked by the Trail Blazers.

Indeed, if the whole game develops as Woodson expected, it is almost impossible for the Blazers to have any chance of winning.It's a pity that the tactics are dead, but the players are alive!

When encountering difficulties, Anjie and the Trail Blazers will not wait for the failure to land.They will continue to challenge the difficulties until all the plans of the Knicks are broken.

Just when Woodson was still depressed, the half-time competition between the two sides officially ended.

In the first quarter of the game, the Knicks led the Blazers by a full eight points because of the excellent performance of the second team.In the second quarter of the game, Woodson's original plan was to expand the results so as to firmly control the game situation.Unexpectedly, not only did the Knicks fail to increase the score, but they were even tied by the Blazers!

55 to 55, Marcus Camby's sudden outburst hit everyone unexpectedly.It is because of his excellent defense that the Knicks' second unit's breakthrough-oriented task has not been successfully completed.

Now, the two sides are back on the same starting line.Who will be the winner of the entire game depends on what adjustments the coaches of the two teams will make after a half-time game.

"Good job Marcus! We couldn't have done it without you!" After returning to the locker room, Ricard immediately praised Camby.

As a 38-year-old veteran, Camby has experienced too many things.Ordinary encouragement, it is no longer possible to cause any waves in the veteran's heart.

But this feeling of being recognized, needed, and valued is what the veteran likes most.Because this means that they are not completely useless!

Mike Woodson thought about it, and the state of the Trail Blazers today is extending upward in an arc.The later the game, the better this group is.Some simple tactical cooperation has been unable to prevent the Blazers from completing the harvest.The only thing he can do now is to throw his best scoring lineup on the field.

Therefore, as soon as the third quarter came up, Jeremy Lin, who had plenty of playing time, was put on the bench by Woodson.Many Chinese fans in front of the TV were completely disappointed. They thought this would be a fierce battle between Jeremy Lin and An Jie.Unexpectedly, Jeremy Lin's sense of existence today is really low.

In fact, Jeremy Lin's performance is not bad, just so-so.Just as a point guard, Jeremy Lin's autonomous offensive ability is still weaker.Now that Woodson has proven that he can't rely on defense to fight, he must increase his investment in the offensive end in order to fight against the Trail Blazers.

Therefore, JR Smith, Iman Shumpert and Steve Novak, who were on the bench, replaced them as the starters in the second half.

"Coach Woodson's lineup is very aggressive. It seems that he doesn't intend to be conservative anymore, and is going to have a head-to-head confrontation with the Trail Blazers!" If Woodson can figure out a way on the defensive end, He would not choose such a risky way to continue the game.

However, the Knicks have Anthony as a super scorer in charge, even if they play against the Blazers, they may not necessarily lose!

As soon as the third quarter started, An Jie clearly felt that the pressure from behind him was not as great as it was in the first half.

Now that Woodson has changed the team's overall thinking, Stoudemire's focus has naturally changed from defense to offense.

Right now, he just wanted to put a big punch on the offensive end. His defense against An Jie was indeed not as hard as it was in the first half.

In order to save energy, An Jie got in place at a deep place before catching the ball.In this way, once a teammate can pass the ball in, Anjie can directly attack the frame without pushing!

Just thinking about it, Gerald Wallace passed the ball with a hit to the ground and transferred the ball to the inside.

An Jie didn't act rashly after holding the ball. Now he can attack the frame without advancing, so it is particularly important to control the enemy with one move.

Seeing that An Jie didn't make any effort, Stoudemire didn't know what An Jie was doing.Just when he was about to reach out for the ball, An Jie's shoulder started to turn to the left!
Stoudemire's responsiveness is definitely at the top level in the league. Like Anjie, Stoudemire's nerves have always been very sensitive in terms of interior defense.

So as long as Anjie moves, Stoudemire will follow.However, during this few tenths of a second, An Jie actually shook his shoulder for the second time and turned around in the opposite direction!
Stoudemire couldn't believe his eyes. He was already considered an insider with excellent athletic ability and physical fitness.But even he couldn't change the center of gravity in such a short period of time.But An Jie's shoulder shaking was already so realistic and fast.

Away from Stoudemire, who didn't respond in time, Anjie easily turned over and hit the ball into the frame with a jumper.To attack, then we start counting from the first ball!
"Ann's shoulder shaking is very beautiful! The speed is too fast, and it is also very realistic. This is simply a standard shoulder shaking action that can be included in textbooks!" Now in this league, most players shake their shoulders just to do it. It's just pretending, and it doesn't have any practical effect.But Anjie's goal just now was undoubtedly a popular science for the fans about what a real shoulder shake looks like.

Olajuwon should be very proud now, because Anjie's shoulder shaking action can be said to be no worse than himself back then.Even Olajuwon couldn't reach the speed of shaking his shoulders just now!
However, before the fans of the Trail Blazers were happy, Carmelo Anthony used a very difficult three-pointer to overtake the score again.

This time, Gerald Wallace's defense was impeccable, but Anthony was able to score the ball despite such a big interference.Perhaps, this is the difference between a superstar and an ordinary star.

Anjie did defend Stoudemire very well, but the Knicks were not going to attack Stoudemire, but Anthony!
In the second Knicks attack, Anjie tried to put Stoudemire at a distance to pay attention to Anthony's breakthrough and running position.But the disadvantage of this is that Stoudemire will get a lot of opportunities.

Sure enough, Anthony broke through to the inside. Gerald Wallace's defense relied more on his strong body.But this time, facing Anthony, the advantage of "Elvis Presley" disappeared instantly.

Anthony leaned on Gerald Wallace and entered the paint smoothly. Even though Wallace was still inseparable, Anjie still shrank to the basket worriedly.

"It's now!" Seeing that Anjie moved his footsteps, Anthony quickly put the ball on.

With that orange afterimage watching, Stoudemire has raised the basketball, ready to complete the attack with a close-range jumper.Aldridge wanted to interfere with Stoudemire's shot, but Tyson secretly held Aldridge's arm, preventing him from moving.

Aldridge only watched Stoudemire complete the shot, and Angie only rushed towards Stoudemire at this time, so no matter how wide his defensive range is, it is too late now.

"Swipe!" Stoudemire opened one hand to his ear. He enjoyed the sound of the basketball hitting the net, and he enjoyed the sound of the fans cheering at Madison Square Garden.

This ball is not to blame for Anjie letting go of Stoudemire. If you want to blame, you can only blame Anthony for being too threatening.As long as he can attract Angie, Stoudemire has a chance to score.

However, the cheers at Madison Square Garden did not last long, and the fans at the scene fell silent again.

It was a missed shot by Wesley Matthews, and Anjie grabbed the offensive rebound out of nowhere.

When he got the offensive rebound, Angie was at the basket!In other words, if the defense is not tight, Anjie can easily take away two points.

As a result, the Knicks' lineup shrunk in a large arc, and there were even three people around Anjie, hoping to steal the ball or force Anjie to make mistakes.

But when everyone's attention was on An Jie, a basketball jumped out of the crowd and flew straight to where Aldridge was.

An Jie was surrounded by layers, and he really couldn't get up.But not being able to dunk doesn't mean that Anjie can't pass the ball in the crowd.

He accurately found Aldridge's position, and Aldridge also used his steady mid-range shot to make another victory for the Trail Blazers.

Since then, the games between the two sides have been going on in such a tit-for-tat situation. Anthony and JR Smith can always score all kinds of incredible goals.And Anjie and Aldridge will respond quickly.

The score has been very anxious, until the second teams of both sides came on the field, and even until the end of the third quarter, the rhythm of the entire game did not change in any way.

The beautiful offense of the two sides coming and going made the fans feast their eyes, but for the players, this is not a good thing.The later the game, the greater the pressure on the two teams.Therefore, no one wants to play a critical moment offense!

77 to 77, the score against the two sides is still the same.The atmosphere in Jiaozuo spread, and the fourth quarter might be extra exciting.

The always scorched atmosphere cannot be dissipated in a while.
