The way of the center

Chapter 621 Perfect Mindset

"The iron-blooded warrior couldn't resist the temptation of his beautiful wife. An Jie did not hesitate to cross the eastern and western parts overnight to meet the model's wife."

"An Jie showed up at Kennedy International Airport. The newlyweds can't stand the distance between the two places?"

"An Jie ran around all night just to see his wife, and made an inventory of the top ten NBA stars with enviable emotions."

When An Jie finally returned to Portland, he realized that this time he not only made the headlines of ordinary newspapers because of the lore, but also became the target of many gossip magazines.

If it was in the past, An Jie would definitely be very angry when he saw that he was targeted by gossip magazines again.But today, An Jie just laughed off all the news.The mood of the seven-foot-long man was so good that even these gossips couldn't affect An Jie's mood.

"I just said why you were so anxious that night, so you went to find Catherine." During the team's regular training in the afternoon, An Jie's teammates also made fun of this incident.

An Jie didn't refute this, but just smirked.

Not only that, Ricard found that as soon as An Jie was free, he couldn't help but giggle.

"Is this kid stupid because he was hit on the head by someone in New York?" Ricard couldn't help worrying. Although the Blazers have won 16 consecutive victories, Anjie's reaction is too much. It's not normal.

But fortunately, at least Anjie's performance on the training ground is still outstanding.As long as it doesn't affect the competitive state, An Jie'ai will not be questioned no matter how silly she is.

But people's curiosity is quite strong, especially seeing such a simple and honest smile on the face of a "ruthless character" like An Jie, his teammates still can't help asking: "An, what's the matter with you? Going to see a wife, you can't be so happy."

"Hey hey." An Jie just said a word, and continued to laugh to himself.

"Everyone, I'm going to be a father too!" After laughing, An Jie stood up and announced the news in front of his teammates and coaches in the locker room.

In fact, when An Jie just learned that Catherine was pregnant with his own child, he was not happy in his heart.Anxiety and tension occupied An Jie's mind instead.However, after hours of thinking on the plane, An Jie felt more relaxed and happier.

Naturally, the locker room was full of uproarious noise, now it's all right, all the Blazers went crazy with An Jie.

"Let me tell you, how could this kid be so abnormal." Ricard didn't react as strongly as others, but he was also happy for An Jie from the bottom of his heart.

The big boy who shocked himself on the street court back then was about to become a father in a blink of an eye, time flies by so fast.

From being too thin to be able to effectively fight in the NCAA, to now being able to resist beast insiders like Howard and Cousins.She was so shy that she would blush when she saw Catherine, and now she is about to have a complete family of her own.Ricard can be said to have watched Anjie mature step by step, so Ricard has a lot of feelings about this matter.

In the evening, when An Jie was practicing alone, Ricard also sat on the sidelines and chatted a lot with An Jie.

The two men filled the originally boring training ground with laughter, and everyone else also gained inner relaxation because of An Jie's incident during this tense season.

After two days of rest, the Blazers, who are in good physical and mental condition, started their journey in December.

In the early morning of December 12, the Trail Blazers led by Anjie flew to Los Angeles by plane.Today, they will be on the road to challenge the declining nobles of the Lakers.

Previously, the Lakers had a record of 9 wins and 8 losses.This result is actually not bad, but when this result is placed on a team like the Los Angeles Lakers, it seems a bit unsatisfactory.

You know, since Kobe led the team alone for the first time in the 04-05 season, the Lakers haven't had such an aggrieved record.

The star-studded Los Angeles Lakers don't have any superstars in charge now.Paul Gasol?After experiencing the failure of last season, this guy has gradually lost his edge.The Lakers rely more on the performance of role players to win games.

This method may allow the Lakers to win some games by chance, but it is not feasible to defeat the defending champion.

The Lakers fans at Staples Center laughed hoarsely, and even though the team was in trouble, this group of guys was still very proud.

Maybe Kobe's years in Los Angeles really made Lakers fans too confident.They don't seem to realize that the current Lakers team is very different from before.

This once powerful team is fighting for its final glory, but it is a pity that the current star of the Lakers, Paul Gasol, has become Angie's first soul.

15 of 3, that's what happened when Gasol was pushed to the fifth position to fight Anger.

As early as a few years ago, Gasol has been unable to fight against Anjie.At that time, if it weren't for Kobe in the Western Conference semifinals, the Lakers might have been eliminated.

Now, Gasol's state has declined, while Anjie is constantly improving.

What Gasol didn't want to admit, but it did happen, was that the gap between him and Anjie was getting bigger and bigger.

Just when the Lakers fell into a critical moment, Xavier Henry, a previously unknown guard, stepped forward.

This season, the Lakers rely on the explosion of these guys to win.When Henry made consecutive shots and the point difference was approaching, the Lakers fans even felt that they could complete a comeback in this game!
It's a pity that the idea of ​​victory can only be the fantasy of Lakers fans.

Xavier Henry's performance is indeed very good, but no matter how good he is, he is only a role player.

In the last few minutes, the Trail Blazers started the Five Tigers collectively and took down the Lakers' last line of defense in one fell swoop.

114 to 108, the Blazers won the game without any risk at the Staples Center.Lakers fans should be thankful that they only lost less than ten points, which is not considered embarrassing.

Jody. Meeks scored 20 points, Steve. Blake got 13 points, Xavier. Henry 27 points, Nick. Young 17 points.It is because of the explosive performance of these guys that the Lakers can push the score so tight.

But Anjie's 27 points and 12 rebounds, Aldridge and Lillard's 26 points, Iguodala's 17 points and Matthews' 12 points really explained what a good team is.

The victory over the Lakers not only gave the Trail Blazers a good start to the new January journey, but also allowed the Trail Blazers to continue their winning streak.

Of course, the high morale of the Blazers and Anjie's happy and relaxed mood will continue to make them perform better in the next games.

Back then, Anjie was swept out of the playoffs by the powerful Lakers, but now, the Zijin Lakers can only be easily reaped by Anjie.

30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, An Jie doesn't know if he will be so down and out in a few years.But at least for the moment, he must firmly grasp it.

The Trail Blazers, who just won the victory, boarded the plane non-stop and returned to Portland. At the beginning of December, the Trail Blazers will play a back-to-back game.

After returning to Portland, Angie and his Blazers will also face a stronger opponent than the down-and-out Lakers.

Paul George, who pushed the Heat's Big Three into a desperate situation in the Eastern Conference finals last year, and who is destined to go crazy every time he sees Anjie!

The Pacers and Trail Blazers, the direct confrontation between the two strong teams, may become Anjie's first test in the second month of the new season!
