Under the entanglement of Meyers Leonard, Zhou Qi felt like he was crumbling after holding the ball. Although basketball is not a sport that can be played well by the body alone, there is no doubt that the body is also a very important indicator in basketball.

The emaciated Zhou Qi is obviously a little unbearable for NBA-level confrontation, not to mention that he is still an inside player.

But today Zhou Qi did not panic because of such a predicament, although Zhou Qi was at a disadvantage in physical confrontation at the moment, he was still full of confidence!

After holding the ball, Zhou Qi slowly turned to face the frame, Meyers Leonard did not leave an inch, this Chinese has already cut off several points on his head, Leonard does not want to become a springboard on the road to Zhou Qi's fame.

Under Leonard's entanglement, Zhou Qi boldly broke through with the ball! He struggled forward with his shoulder against Leonard's chest, and it seemed that he would be squeezed down by Meyers Leonard at any moment.

Seeing that it was definitely impossible, Zhou Qi suddenly turned around when he was halfway through and hooked his hand directly after shaking off Leonard!

Leonard did not expect Zhou Qi's steps to be so smooth, it seems that this Chinese's basic skills are indeed beyond his expectations.

However, Leonard was not slow to react, he quickly changed his center of gravity and rushed towards Zhou Qi. But Zhou Qi's excellent height and reach make Meyers Leonard helpless against this hook.

The basketball that Zhou Qi threw hit the rebound and then refracted into the net. Coupled with Gordon's blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation, after Zhou Qi came on the court, he actually led the Rockets to a 10-0 offensive climax!

"Incredible Chinese! This time I'm not talking about An, I'm talking about Zhou Qi!"

"Can you believe it? A Chinese player leading an NBA team to challenge Ann's authority. This is absolutely, a situation that has never been seen before in the history of the NBA! Two Chinese players completely dominated the game!" Jeff Van Gundy was amazed by Zhou Qi's good performance, and at the same time, he also saw An Jie preparing on the technical desk. It seems that a Chinese derby is inevitable.

Finally taking advantage of a dead ball, Anjie was brought on the pitch by Ricard and replaced Meyers Leonard.

When he came on the court, Anjie patted Leonard on the shoulder hard, signaling that it was not his fault.

An Jie is not comforting, Zhou Qi can score so many points, it is really not Leonard's poor defense. It's just that today, Zhou Qi's luck and feel are too good.

After Anjie returned to the game, the ratings of China's major live broadcast platforms and sports channels have soared! Since Anjie and Yao Ming in their rookie season, after a full nine years, Chinese fans have finally seen the scene of the Chinese derby on the NBA court again!

Now, it can be said that fans all over China are facing the TV screen. The direct dialogue between An Jie and Zhou Qi on the NBA court, no one wants to miss it!

The last time fans missed the match between An Jie and Yao Ming, the wait was nine years. So this time, no one wants to miss a show like this!

"Good fight, boy. After playing, An Jie also greeted Zhou Qi with a smile. But Zhou Qi didn't know if it was because he was too nervous or what, but he didn't smile and was very serious.

Indeed, in this kind of battle, only a superstar like An Jie can laugh. For role players like Zhou Qi, this kind of life-and-death battle is not funny at all.

The Trail Blazers re-attacked, with Evan Turner sending the ball to the sideline and Contney Lee, who was the No. 1 position, leading the ball carrier on the perimeter.

Anjie didn't ask for a position on the inside, but made a pick-and-roll for Nurkic, and the two guys were going to do a combination between the inside.

Nurkic was able to get out of the middle range with a pick-and-roll. Conteny Lee didn't hesitate to pass the ball directly, and Nurkic calmly shot after getting the vacant space, and the basketball hollowed into the net.

In the first leg after the Chinese derby, nothing happened. An Jie did not have a direct confrontation with Zhou Qi, which can't help but whet the appetite of many Chinese fans.

But they are not in a hurry, and sooner or later the show that should be staged will be staged. In the next attack of the Rocket team, they will definitely not bypass Zhou Qi, who has an excellent hand!

Zhou Qi was very nervous, although he had just defeated Meyers Leonard, but this guy knew very well that the difference between Meyers Leonard and An Jie was not half a star. Leonard is at most a qualified bench insider, and Anjie is the top star in this league!

Zhou Qi is not stupid enough to directly play singles with An Jie, the big brother of the national team, in the inner line, he is still doing his own job, blocking and dismantling.

An Jie didn't worry so much, since Ricard's purpose for replacing him was Zhou Qi, then he would always stick to Zhou Qi.

How big Zhou Qi's shooting range is, An Jie knows very well. After the blocking, An Jie did not block Eric Gordon who broke through, but still stayed by Zhou Qi's side and strangled Gordon's return route.

Seeing that there was no way to continue to put the ball in Zhou Qi's hands, Gordon planned to attack the frame himself. However, the sudden appearance of Nurkic completely strangled the Rockets' offense, and he ended Gordon's offense with a very beautiful big risk!

"After Ann came on the field, the situation changed immediately!But we still haven't seen a direct confrontation between Zhou Qi and An Jie, I hope this will happen soon!" Jeff Van Gundy, as an American, is looking forward to the showdown between An Jie and Zhou Qi, not to mention the mood of domestic fans at this time.

This time the Trail Blazers' offense, An Jie still only mentioned the outside line to do the blocking. It's not that he doesn't want to attack, but he intends to create opportunities for his teammates first and let the team play more flowers.

Evan Turner got an open three-point shot under Anjie's off-ball block, but the 10-year-old star didn't know why and the shot looked a little hasty.

Just looking at Turner's shooting rhythm, Anjie probably knows if this goal can be scored.

This guy suddenly rushed to the inside line, and Zhou Qi didn't even realize what was going on.

Just as Anjie stepped under the basket, the basketball that was thrown by Evan Turner also knocked out of the frame.

An Jie did not hesitate and immediately jumped. Zhou Qi realized that An Jie had already started to rush to attack rebounds!

The gap between the two sides is not only in terms of ball skills and physical fitness, but also in terms of consciousness.

Because Zhou Qi failed to get in a good position and let An Jie run in, this basketball was naturally easily deducted by An Jie.

"Don't let him get close to the basket, absolutely not!" Seeing An Jie easily complete the dunk, D'Antoni really shouted at Zhou Qi from the sidelines.

Zhou Qi nodded, and immediately ran to the other half. He knew that An Jie was starting to get serious!

This time the Rockets' offense, Zhou Qi did not retreat outside the three-point line after blocking and dismantling, but followed suit.

Eric Gordon saw an opportunity and gave the opportunity to Zhou Qi with a ground-hitting pass.

After going down, Zhou Qi took the basketball and took a step directly, intending to attack the frame by himself!

What about An Jie? An Jie just followed Zhou Qi and followed unhurriedly. He is like a hunter in the shadows, ready to strike and swallow the prey that dares to break into his territory in one gulp!

Zhou Qi didn't have so many scruples, since An Jie didn't go beyond himself to stop him, then he wouldn't be polite!

I saw Zhou Qi jump directly and straighten his long arms. He looks like he wants to dunk like this!

"Oh my God, is Zhou Qi trying to dunk on An Jie's head!?" Jeff Van Gundy's eyes widened, even if James was at such a distance, he might not dare to dunk.

The calf is not afraid of tigers, and for Zhou Qi, who is already extremely excited, he will not let go of any opportunity to score.

Zhou Qi had just reached the highest point, but suddenly felt a huge pressure coming from beside him! There is no doubt that it was An Jie!

An Jie leaned on Zhou Qi's side in the air, opened his hand, and was about to hit the basketball in Zhou Qi's hand.

Zhou Qi couldn't dodge, and after making physical contact with An Jie, he couldn't move at all. If you feel a little discouraged because you want to change your movements. will definitely be knocked to the ground by An Jie with the ball.

So Zhou Qi could only continue to dunk strongly, and An Jie, who had a perfect grasp of the timing of the block, did not let his little brother of the national team succeed!

I saw An Jie's palm suddenly slam into force! The basketball in Zhou Qi's hand lost control and was fanned by An Jie.

Zhou Qi couldn't believe that An Jie had completed the sealing of himself so easily. It's rare, is this the gap between yourself and the top inside!?

After the basketball was fanned, Zhou Qi, whose center of gravity was unstable, fell to the ground crookedly. An Jie immediately grabbed Zhou Qi so that the latter could avoid falling.

"It's a little too reckless this time, you'll have to be patient next time. After An Jie helped Zhou Qi complete the buffer, he winked at him before running back to his half of the court to defend.

"Well, this duel is not what we imagined. An Jie easily defeated his compatriots. If the Rockets want to continue their offensive momentum, I'm afraid they will have to change their approach. ”

Van Gundy was right, in the next few rounds, An Jie began to ask for the ball on the inside to attack, and there was no doubt that Zhou Qi was defeated by An Jie by a crushing margin. On the defensive end, Zhou Qi couldn't put any pressure on An Jie at all.

Anjie scored consecutive points, making the advantage that the Rockets had built up so hard to come to naught.

Finally, after An Jie completely defeated Zhou Qi with a jump-in-place slam dunk, D'Antoni also had to call a timeout.

An Jie is really ruthless, because in addition to protecting Zhou Qi's health, An Jie didn't take any care of this compatriot on the field at all.

What should be buckled is still buckled, and what should be risked still has to be risked. The roaring ...... Well, Zhou Qi should be glad that at least he was not yelled at by An Jie.

It wasn't until Harden and Paul returned to the court with two backcourt shots that the Rockets' offense finally picked up.

But in the limited time, there isn't much the Rockets can do. At 49-55, the halftime was over, and the difference between the Rockets and the Trail Blazers was one more point.

At the end of the half, ESPN's reporters specifically approached Zhou Qi and asked him to stay on the court for an interview.

After all, Zhou Qi is not a big name now, so he has to accept it happily. But the question asked by the reporter gave him a bit of a headache.

"After playing against Ann, do you think the Rockets still have a chance to win!?"

"Anjie is very strong, but we also scored a lot of good goals. Let's wait for the end of the game. Zhou Qi hurriedly gave a perfunctory look to the reporter, and walked quickly to the player's tunnel.

As for the real answer to the question just now, Zhou Qi actually wanted to say: "After Anjie's fight, I think the chances of the Rockets are getting fewer and fewer. ”

Anjie's terrifying strength has completely convinced Zhou Qi, who has been playing in the NBA for a season!
