Chapter 851: The Return of the King
1 "LeBron James, this guy vowed to defend Cleveland to the death! His 21 gave the Cavaliers a key lead!" Van Gundy has never been a James fan, but in this game, he looked at Anger's old opponent with admiration.
If it weren't for Anjie, God knew that this guy could win several championships. The showdown between Anjie and James would definitely become the most talked about duel in the second decade of the 21st century. In the future, it would definitely become a classic period in nBa's history.
Now even if the game is suspended, the atmosphere on the scene is suffocating. The somewhat overwhelmed female fans even shed tears because they could not imagine the scene after the Cavaliers lost this game.
Kobe and the Trail Blazers bench are separated by two rows of seats, but he has been infected by the fierce atmosphere. It is as if he is sitting on the bench at this moment, and the coach may pat your shoulders and let you play.
Looking at Kobe's focused expression, her wife just smiled. This guy must be reluctant to leave the place where he fought for.
"Your knees..."
"Everyone said it, it's okay!" An Jie waved his hand, took the ice bag away, stood up and jumped around for a few times, and it looked nothing serious.
It is normal for any professional athlete to have injuries everywhere, and the old injuries are a little painful. Therefore, Ricard didn't care even when he saw Anjie jumping around.
He continued to arrange tactics, and there was no doubt that Anjie became the top priority of the Trail Blazers on both offense and defense in the last three minutes, and the key among the keys.
These three minutes are likely to change the fate of the Trail Blazers. Maybe in three minutes, they will win the O'Brien Cup?
"Beep~~~" The electronic beeping sound that represents the end of the pause time suddenly rang out. The sound was like a charge, gathering ten fighters on the battlefield again.
On the Cavaliers, they still did not use Wade. Instead, they used Tristan Thompson to continue to strengthen the Cavaliers' control over the inside.
Although Wade did not play, he was standing on the sidelines. At this moment, it is almost impossible for you to sit on the bench.
Napier took Morris' pass and began to advance to the Cavaliers' halftime. Napier played for so long, and never felt the air around him being so stressed. This defender, who once won a mop in the NCAA Championship, had never felt this kind of atmosphere that made people breathe heavily even in the NCAA Finals that year.
Thomas Jr. stared at Napier. This 2O11 No. 6O rookie knows the importance of correcting his attitude better than anyone else. Even if Napier doesn't have much threat, Thomas Jr. wants to treat the opponent as Lillard to defend!
Just when Thomas Jr. was about to interfere with Napier's passing route, this most unthreatening Napier suddenly broke through!
Thomas was startled at first, but soon reacted. The guy moved quickly, his arms spread wide open. But Thomas didn't expect that Anger's pick-and-roll had quietly taken place.
"Pick-and-roll!" Love yelled and reminded Thomas little. Thomas only then realized that Anjie had run to him secretly.
He quickly bypassed Anger's back and signaled Love not to switch defenses. Thomas Jr. was not afraid of giving Napier a shot space, but was afraid that this guy would break through and pass the ball.
Sure enough, when Thomas Jr. quickly bypassed the pick-and-roll, Napier did not shoot. But this guy who looked very young suddenly passed the ball. Only then did people realize that Iguodala had cut into the basket through a delicate running position!
The pick-and-roll cooperation between Angel and Napier is a completely cover. All of this is to provide cover for Iguodala.
The angry James immediately chased after him. Iguodala was once famous for his athletic ability, but now he is no longer as capable as he used to be.
Iguodala received the basketball and was about to dunk with both hands, but before the basketball dunked into the basket, she was chased and slapped away by James from behind.
The basketball hit the rebound heavily and rebounded quickly. Just as James turned around and was about to see who could grab the rebound, Anjie was far higher than Tristan Thompson who had a good position and dunked the ball into the box through him!
"There are people who make up for the dunk! An's absolute dominance over the rebound makes Tristan useless even if he gets stuck in a favorable position! Wonderful! This is called wonderful!"
After An Jie landed, he waved his arm vigorously. His hideous expression made everyone know that this beast could not mess with him now.
Although he was scored a goal, the Cavaliers were not discouraged. James continued to control the ball himself, and went straight to the basket.
"Go ahead and shoot outside the three-point line, bastard!" An Jie cursed in his heart, and immediately shook away the arm that Love had placed on him and put on defense.
James borrowed Thompson's pick-and-roll and passed Iguodala and broke through directly. As long as he passed Iguodala, no outside player could block James.
However, what James did not expect was that after passing Iguodala's level, An Jie was actually in front of him!
James is so large that it is against physical conventions to brake suddenly in such a small space. In other words, James can't reduce it at all now!
An Jie's mouth curled up slightly, and the next second, two strong guys collided together!
"Bang!" This muffled sound made basketball fans all over the world feel heartbroken.
"Dududu." The referee's rapid whistle appeared in time. James dribbled the ball and hit someone, and the offensive foul was made!
"Damn!" James unwillingly smashed the basketball to the ground. Anjie's judgment of the defensive position was too accurate. Morris and Iguodala hurried over and prepared to help Anjie who fell to the ground again.
However, when Morris and Iguodala arrived in front of Anjie, the smiles on their faces suddenly froze. Because Anjie was sitting on the ground at this time, holding his knees with both hands.
"Don't scare my buddy! What's wrong?" Morris yelled quickly. He didn't want God to destroy the Trail Blazers again with injuries.
"It hurts a little, damn it, it's the knee that had tear the meniscus before!" An Jie's face did not have any painful expression, but when he was helped up, An Jie could only limp.
The tactical board in Ricard's hand suddenly fell to the ground. The guy's eyes were dull, as if he had seen something desperate.
Team Doctor Xi immediately rushed to the field and checked An Jie's knee. As soon as the team Doctor gently pressed An Jie's knee with his hand, An Jie couldn't help but snorted.
"Check out, now!" Team Doctor Xi shouted at An Jie.
"I’m, ok." Anjie's answer was still understated.
Katherine covered her mouth in front of the TV, and at the same time, countless fans in Portland were doing the same actions as Katherine.
Angel signaled Morris and Iguodala to let go, but after only a few steps, Angel limped again.
"No, no, it seems that I can't hold on to the game. God, don't joke like this with us!" At this moment, even the local commentator in Cleveland would not gloat. Injuries are the public enemy of the basketball world.
"Let's go, I'll help you to the player's passage. We have the next game. In order to tiebreak, you must deal with your pain as soon as possible!" The team doctor's words made An Jie hesitate for a while. The next second, with the help of two team doctors, this guy walked towards the player's passage!
"No!" Some Trail Blazers fans who came from afar wailed. They stretched out their hands, as if they wanted to seize the last hope.
An Jie got off the court and the game continued. Listening to the noise behind him, An Jie suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Team Doctor Xi, who had already walked into the player channel, looked at An Jie.
"No, there's no next game."
"What did you say!? Don't we have a home court??" Team Doctor Xi did not want to delay treatment time.
"There is no next game! No! Today, we are going to move away the damn O'Brien Cup! Whether it's fake or real, we are going to move away the O'Brien Cup today! Today, we are going to win the championship today!" An Jie yelled, shook away the two team doctors who were supporting him left and right, held the wall and lifted his injured leg. After the pain was already tolerated, he walked straight to the court alone.
"Boss, he..." The two medical staff were at a loss and looked at Team Doctor Xi.
Team Doctor Xi looked at An Jie's back as he walked out of the player's passage and his whole body was covered in goose bumps. "Let that guy go, the doomsday of Cleveland is here!"
"Iguodala shot in the middle distance! Fortunately, the ball entered, and the Trail Blazers reversed a point without An. But next, the Trail Blazers will be very difficult to play because... Hey! Look at Mike, who is there in the player passage?? An, An returned to the stadium! Spectators, An Jie returned to the stadium from the player passage! This guy, maybe he wants to play again!" Van Gundy suddenly pointed to the direction of the player passage and shouted. His actions attracted the attention of all the colleagues in the commentary area.
Suddenly, all the cameras on the scene were removed from the field and aimed at the player's passage. There, An Jie was trotting back to the bench.
"Man..." Kobe couldn't help but stand up and applaud Anger. His actions made the Portland fans who came to watch the game on site applaud Anger. Afterwards, some Cleveland fans even joined in. Suddenly, cheers and boos in the Loan Center Arena intertwined, forming the biggest hymn to Anger!
"The scene is boiling!" Van Gundy's roar made countless American families feel the power of the scene. In fact, Van Gundy didn't know what he was yelling at the scene.
"Why are you..." Ricard obviously hadn't reacted to what was going on.
"Let me play on the court, boss! Let's take the O'Brien Cup home today!" Before Ricard finished speaking, Anjie grabbed his shoulder and shouted. Wu Hua quickly raised his camera and took this scene. nBa's classic photo has another one since then.
"Mom, why are you crying?" An Xiang looked at Catherine crying in front of the TV and asked in confusion.
"Mom, I'm so happy, I'm proud of your dad!" Catherine's voice gradually choked...
On the court, Nurkic deliberately fouled against Thompson, not for anything else, just to kill the ball and let Anjie play immediately. After all, there is not much time left for the Trail Blazers and the Cavaliers now.
Nurkic ran away, although this would make him lose his chance to perform. But now, who cares about this?
"You are my flag, An!" Nurkic ran to the sidelines and hugged Anjie.
"Wait for the trophy, Yusuf!" Anjie patted Nurkic's back, bent down and touched the hardwood floor of the basketball court. Then, he reappeared in the loud noise of cheers and boos!
"The King of Tearing City is back! His purpose is clear, Ann wants to end the whole season!" Van Gundy shouted heart-wrenchingly into the microphone.
Chapter completed!
