Chapter 786: Six Overall Champions?
"Team China! Come on! China! Come on! In the gymnasium of Changsha Civil Affairs Vocational College, in the stands, countless fans wearing red shirts and waving five-star red flags were roaring.
The 8,000 seats at the tournament were unattended, and it was likely to be the most attended in the history of the Asian Championships. After all, at this moment, a world-class basketball superstar is sweating on the court normally.
The star of the Philippines, big center Brache is ready to attack with a frame after receiving the basketball. This big black man who can wrestle with Yi Jianlian in Asia is as immature as a basketball beginner in front of An Jie.
"Don't make up for it, you don't need it!" An Jie immediately waved his hand and motioned his teammates to pay attention to man-to-man defense.
Blatche looked around, now it's good, he doesn't even have a chance to pass the ball!
There was no way, Blatche swallowed. Now, it's up to you to break through on your own!
I saw that this Filipino center forward took a false step with the ball and then broke directly to An Jie's left hand, in An Jie's opinion, this guy's breakthrough action is not as good as Howard's rough technique.
Anjie easily followed, but did not block Blatche's breakthrough route. He was deliberately letting go, deliberately making Brache think he had a chance!
Blatche did think so, seeing that An Jie did not completely block his breakthrough path, he continued to accelerate and jumped directly, hoping to end the attack with a dunk.
However, Blatche had just gotten up, and he was forced down by An Jie from the top with the ball!
"Blatche's offense is no threat in front of An Jie, look, this defensive net woven by An Jie completely bundles Blatche inside!"
After being forcibly pushed down, Blatche's center of gravity was unstable and he fell to the ground. An Jie seized the opportunity and reached out and poked. The basketball is out of control, and the Chinese team gets the ball!
An Jie did not hesitate after getting the basketball and sent the ball to Ding Yanyuhang. At the same time, An Jie immediately turned around and threw himself into the fast attack. People are amazed that An Jie, a big center forward with a height of 2.19 meters, can actually become an arrow figure during the fast attack!
In the Asian arena, AnJie can play the role of a fast-break endpoint by himself. Although the Philippine team's retreat is very timely, they are still too slow for Anjie!
Ding Yanyuhang controlled the ball and advanced to the three-point line, and suddenly hit the ground and passed. An Jie, who came up later, took advantage of the situation to get the basketball, and at this moment, only Philippine power forward Norwood was guarding the basket.
Norwood adjusted his pace, and in the face of Anjie rushing in his face, he jumped bravely!
However, when Norwood and Anjie made physical contact, he realized how stupid his choice was!
Norwood was completely powerless in the air as Angel crushed him all underneath.
The fans in the stadium stood up, after all, such a scene is very rare in the Asian arena.
Anjie pressed Norwood and slammed it with one hand. The basketball was smashed into the basket, and the confidence of the Philippine team was also shattered by An Jie.
"Separate people and deduct them! An Jie brought his brutality on the NBA court to the Asian arena completely! The next time he sees An Jie rushing towards him, he should dodge in time instead of facing him! Zhang Weiping smiled on the on-site commentary platform, An Jie was just joking. Say the buckle is the buckle, say the lid is the cap. For a legendary NBA star, the Asian arena is indeed too simple.
Zhou Qi and Wang Zhelin and other new Chinese insiders have waved towels like crazy, and now, they have a new role model that is worth emulating.
After An Jie scored this goal, the Philippine team was already 30 points behind the Chinese team. At this moment, there are only 4 minutes left before the end of the game.
Gong Luming laughed and called a timeout, replacing all the main players from the field. Zhou Qi, Wang Zhelin, Guo Allen and other young players began to take over the last few minutes of the game.
Four minutes later, the entire stadium was cheering, including the players and coaches on the basketball court.
104-134, An Jie once again led the Chinese team to win the finals and easily stood on the top of Asia!
After the award ceremony, everyone in the Chinese team hung their gold medals around An Jie's neck, and then stepped down one after another and bowed to An Jie.
An Jie hung a bunch of gold medals, held trophies, and stood alone at the highest point. This position is Anjie's position in Chinese basketball. He is the only one who is qualified to stand at the top.
An Jie smiled very happily on the podium, you know, the last person who could enjoy this kind of treatment in the national team was Wang Zhizhi.
An Jie is now not only the center point of the Chinese team on the court, he is the soul of the entire Chinese basketball. After all, God knows how long it will take for the next Anjie to appear. Perhaps, it is very likely that China will be the only one Anjie?
Such a player, for China. Even if it's the only one, it's definitely something to be proud of.
In the evening, An Jie and his teammates held their own celebration banquet in Changsha. A few days later, the celebration banquet organized by the Basketball Association, An Jie will not go again.
First, Anjie doesn't like that kind of special official and bureaucratic celebration banquet, and second, it's already October, and after tonight, Anjie must rush back to the United States and enter the pre-game training camp for the new NBA season.
"I really envy you, Brother Jie, it must be cool to be able to create a dynasty in the NBA and stand on top of the world!" At the celebration banquet, the young players liked to hear the most about what An Jie would encounter in the NBA.
"Aren't you and Wang Zhelin going to participate in the draft next year? Maybe we'll meet in the NBA in the future? And you, Xiaoding, I've heard that several NBA teams have sent you invitations to summer league. Don't underestimate Summer League, even if you don't make it to the NBA, you can still learn a lot in Summer League. ”
"I know Brother Jie, if I have the opportunity to play in the summer league next year, I will definitely do my best!" Ding Yanyuhang replied with a smile, he really hopes that he can work hard in the United States.
With an infinite yearning for the future, Zhou Qi, Wang Zhelin and Ding Yanyuhang collectively toasted an Anjie Cup. An Jie drank it all happily, because he knew that after tonight, the difficulties he would face might not make him so happy again.

The day after the Asian Championships, Anjie got on a plane and rushed to Portland non-stop.
Getting closer to the United States, Anjie's excitement after winning the Asian Championships is getting less and less.
Unlike the Chinese team's big victory this summer, the situation of the Trail Blazers this summer is not very optimistic. It's no secret that the Trail Blazers have four major rotation players leaving this summer. Among them, even Aldridge, a pivotal second-in-command, exists in it.
And Matthews, Batum and Robin. Lopez's departure is bound to greatly reduce the team's strength.
Although Orsi also made some personnel additions after that, the new group of guys to the team could not fully fill the void caused by the departure of the four.
With the Warriors and Thunder rapidly improving, the Trail Blazers' strength is not improving, which is indeed not very good news.
But when Anjie finally stepped foot on Portland soil, he didn't report to the team first, but stayed at home for a day.
During the Asian Championships in Changsha, An Jie had already missed An Xiang's first birthday. So when he came back this time, An Jie made an urgent desire to see his son who had been born for a year.
"Look at your dad, he was absent on your first birthday."
"Hehe, Dad is also going to win glory for the country." An Jie gently stroked An Xiang's tender white face with his big hand.
Having said that, it is true, but An Jie really wants to spend more time with his family. I have to compete every year, and outside of the event, there are all kinds of business activities to deal with. In this way, there is not much time left to really spend well with your family.
"When I win three more championships, I'll retire." An Jie sat on the sofa and said with her arms around Catherine.
"Are you so greedy to take three more? Kobe Bryant hasn't gotten the sixth in his life. You just say that you never want to retire. Catherine rested her head on Angel's shoulder, not thinking about the possibility of this.
"Where is greed, I'm serious. After three more championships, I'm going to dedicate all my time to you and Gram. I know, and you don't want me to live this life of being on the move without a home all the time. Anjie turned her head and stared at Catherine seriously.
"What if you can't get it?" Catherine asked jokingly, but in fact she never questioned Angel's abilities. After all, she had accompanied An Jie all the way from Ames City. What Anjie is capable of, Catherine knows best.
"There's no way I can't get it!" Unlike Catherine's joking tone, An Jie smiled seriously and confidently.
"Really, you, let's go to training camp tomorrow, fool."
"Don't tell me, I can't wait to see my new teammates."
"By the way, this is LaMarcus' birthday present to An Xiang."
"Oh? Aldridge's stinky boy went to San Antonio and he hasn't forgotten that he has a buddy in Portland......"
......
The full moon hung silently in the night sky, and in the faint moonlight, the whole city of Portland looked very quiet and peaceful. No explosive news, no NBA games. Today was just an ordinary night.
But for An Jie and Catherine, an ordinary family night is so hard-won.
The last quiet night before the start of the new season, tonight, let the Dark Knight have a good rest......
