Chapter 637: Happy New Year

On the training ground the next day, Rickard was clearly not as fond of shouting as he used to. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

His temper is still fiery and his training requirements are still strict. It's just that the loud roar no longer appears often.

Instead, there was a violent coughing sound that appeared from time to time. Even if Angel and Ricard didn't tell anyone about it, such an obvious fault would definitely make everyone suspicious.

"What the hell is wrong with you, man?" Divac is the third time today that he has asked Ricard the same question.

"It's just a cold, and the temperature in Portland this winter is really terrible." Rickard deliberately wrapped himself in his small vest, but in fact the sweat on his forehead was already hanging in a row.

During the training break, the elder Miller, who had paper stuck in both nostrils to prevent snot from dripping all over the training ground, also gave Ricard cold medicine. Miller Sr. had a very bad cold, but he hadn't forgotten to share his medicine with his manager. Ricard was very relieved, and this sense of relief also made him decide to keep this secret with Anjie.

A "cold" can make the people around you nervous like this, and if they know that they have the scary-name chronic bronchitis, it would be strange if these guys didn't panic.

For the stability of the team's morale, in order to let everyone devote themselves to basketball. Ricard decided to keep the secret in his heart.

God never let the fate of the Trail Blazers be uneasy, and Rickard is willing to challenge fate.

With a two-day break after the loss, the Trail Blazers continued their regular season journey.

On December 21st, in the days approaching Christmas, the Trail Blazers welcomed the "rookie king" Anthony on the road. Davis' challenge.

Compared to last season, the sophomore Davis has improved as much as Lillard. No matter how good Lillard is, he lives under the aura of An Jie. And Anthony. Davis, on the other hand, is completely self-reliant.

With an 11-13 record, the Hornets have not seen any improvement this season after changing their name to the Pelicans. But Anthony. The competition between Davis, a new generation of all-round insiders, and An Jie is still attracting attention.

Once upon a time, Anjie has become the object of challenge for future generations. Once, he ran behind O'Neill and Yao Ming's butts. Now, another group of children are chasing after An Jie.

"I'm very eager to challenge Anjie and if I can, I will do my best to try to beat him in the game!" Facing the interview with reporters, Anthony. Davis showed his youthful self-confidence.

But self-confidence outside the field is self-confidence, and when you get to the field, you have to speak with strength.

Anjie had to admit that Anthony. Davis is indeed much better than himself in terms of all-roundability.

"Brother Thick Eyebrows" Davis can not only play inside, but also shoot three-pointers and control the ball independently. In short, he is completely an interior Durant No. 2.

But in terms of dominance on the inside, Davis is far worse than Anjie. No matter how versatile an inside lineman is, his dominance over the paint zone cannot be diminished in the slightest. Otherwise, he wouldn't be a good interior player. And Davis still has a long way to go in this regard.

Ryan. Anderson's long-range shooting is still a headache, and Eric Anderson. Gordon's performance is also commendable. As for Anthony. Davis, this guy didn't get beaten all over the ground like he did last season. He had 21 points and 9 rebounds today, which was quite good.

But Anjie's perfect control of the penalty area still made Davis's quasi-double-double stats meaningless.

Defense, rebounding, counter-attacking, tackling, scoring. Everything that can be done in the paint area, Anjie has done it perfectly.

With 29 points, 12 rebounds, 2 blocks and 7 assists, it seems that Anjie's statistics are not much better than Davis. But the gap is more than a star and a half.

Eventually, Anthony. Davis's challenge has come to an end. On the final offense, Davis' shot from outside the three-point line was seriously interfered with by Anjie. The basketball just rubbed against the front of the basket to avoid the embarrassment of direct three non-sticks. After that, the whole game was over.

107-110, the Pelicans, who were in excellent condition, made the Trail Blazers play unexpectedly hard, but An Jie's steady play still allowed the Trail Blazers to avoid consecutive defeats.

The fans of the Moda Center breathed a sigh of relief, and sure enough, the loss to the Timberwolves in the last game was nothing more than an "accident".

After winning this game, the Trail Blazers ushered in Christmas 2013 with a proud 27-1 record and the first record in the league.

On Christmas Eve, December 24, Catherine returned to Portland as scheduled.

And An Jie's parents and bearded man also got together for the first time after An Jie and Catherine got married. Parents on both sides were happy when they heard that Anjie and Catherine had a child.

The Rickard family and the Lillard family also experienced this joy with the family, and spent Christmas with their teammates, which has almost become Anjie's "tradition".

This year's Christmas Anjie and they all had a very simple time, Anjie and Lillard didn't dare to eat too much dinner, even if the dishes on the table were a hundred times more delicious than the tasteless nutritious meal.

The reason is simple, tomorrow, the defending champions of the Trail Blazers will inevitably have to fight a Christmas game. As an important game broadcast in the United States, Anjie and Lillard don't want to eat too much and affect the next day's training and games.

This festival, as long as everyone can get together, it is enough for Angel and Lillard.

The next day, when the men walked into the Moda Centre with their children and their families for Christmas, the coughing Rickard and Angel were confined to the locker room for the important holiday.

Ricard's cough worsened a bit, but that still didn't dampen the guy's passion for coaching.

"The Clippers want revenge, so we're going to go out and let them experience it again, what it's like to be swept 4-0!" Rickard tried his best not to yell, but when it came to excitement, he couldn't help but yell.

Rickard's bitter yelling was not meaningless, and as soon as he finished speaking, the players below him turned into a pack of bloodthirsty wolves.

The Clippers wanted revenge, but the Trail Blazers once again crushed a strong opponent and made it even more enjoyable for the fans

We're happy.

With the Christmas war on the horizon, Paul and Griffin are really vengeful, and they have only been released until now after being swept out of the playoffs 4-0 last season.

At the beginning of the game, the Clippers nearly suffocated the Trail Blazers. Griffin and Paul frequently played in the air relay, turning the Moda Center into a venue for the duo to take off.

But as the game progressed, the shortcomings of the Clippers' lack of depth became more and more apparent.

Whether it's Matt on the bench. Barnes was also once with the famous Willie. Green, none of them can survive the defense of the Trail Blazers' second team.

To solve this problem, Doug. Rivers has to add playing time to Griffin, Paul and Trail Blazers veteran Crawford.

The in-form trio continued to bombard the Moda Center, and in the face of Paul's elusive passing and accurate shooting, the game was played until the last minute, and the winner was not decided.

In the end, Anjie scored a basket under the basket against Jordan Jr.'s defense. This goal also made the game officially enter overtime.

The Christmas game went into extra time, and it was undoubtedly the most wanted situation for fans. Except, of course, for Trail Blazers fans.

In overtime, Griffin and Paul, who played too long, slipped in form. The Trail Blazers, who have been making substitutions according to strict rotation, have not been affected.

An Jie stabilized the morale of the army in the last two minutes, allowing the Trail Blazers to play steadily. The tired Clippers threw themselves into disarray, burying their previous 48 minutes of hard work.

107-111, the Trail Blazers won two straight games at the Christmas War. Of course, the Clippers, who were swept last season, still failed to turn around this time.

Griffin and Paul had an exaggerated 35 points, 15 rebounds and 34 points and 16 assists, respectively, but under the leadership of Anjie, the Trail Blazers persevered until the end with seven players scoring double-doubles and three players scoring double-doubles.

The Los Angeles Clippers, as long as they can't beat the Trail Blazers for a day, they can't take off the hat of the "regular season team" for a day.

An hour after the match, Riccard was taken to the hospital by Anjie. Rickard stayed in the hospital until 1 a.m. before he finally came home and said Merry Christmas to his wife and daughter.

And what about Anjie? By the time he got home, Catherine and her parents had long since fallen asleep......

How can other people see the hard work behind this? Victory is always thought of too well.

After the Christmas War, Catherine returned to work, and the bearded returned to Ames to run her own restaurant that was already popular all over the city. And Anjie's parents are in Portland.

Now that they are getting older, An Jie's career is relatively stable. Spending more time with their son has become the only wish of parents.

After returning home every day, he no longer only faces an empty house, and An Jie's mood must have improved a lot. But the Trail Blazers' record has seen its biggest fluctuation since the start of the season.

On December 28, three days after Christmas, the Trail Blazers and Heat, Anjie and James finally met again after last season's Finals.

Naturally, the "finals preview" match between the two sides has once again become a national broadcast broadcast, and it can be said that the ratings of this game are the highest so far this season.

The performances of both teams did not disappoint, and they continued the momentum they had in last season's Finals. It's just that today, the man in the lore game has become the inconspicuous Chris. Bosh.

In the last 2.7 seconds of the game, Bosh received a wonderful pass from Wade to withstand Anjie's defense and hit a three-pointer. The Heat, who trailed by two points, killed the game and finally avenged last season's tiebreaker.

And this is also the first time in many years that someone can score a killer goal on An Jie's head.

Bosh's stunner brought the Heat a regular-season victory, but Anjie's stunner last season directly brought the Trail Blazers an O'Brien Cup.

So, people still think that Bosh was just lucky. Soon, the Trail Blazers' winning streak will continue.

A day later, however, the Trail Blazers, who had been on an expedition to New Orleans to fight the Pelicans again, were defeated.

Today, the man who broke out is no longer Davis. It's the rise of the little guard, Zhu. Holiday .

Who doesn't eat dumplings? The Pelicans have only been on the verge of the playoffs so far. It's not strange to win a match with an upset once in a while.

But in Portland, the Trail Blazers' first losing streak caused an uproar.

Fans are scared that the Trail Blazers will go high and low, and they will go downhill.

But fortunately, in back-to-back games the next day, the Trail Blazers defeated the Toronto Raptors, the "King of the North", to stop the losing streak.

The match was played on December 31, which means that after tonight, 2013, will be history.

There is no doubt that 2013 in the basketball world belongs to Anjie and the pioneers. But for the upcoming 2014, Anjie has greater ambitions.

That's how the life of a professional footballer is, playing and fighting, and a year has passed. However, for An Jie, as long as he can continue to win, as long as he can still be with his beloved, he is already very happy. It doesn't matter if it's 2014 or 2024......

However, in the coming 2014, Anjie's life will definitely be turned upside down. Because in the coming year, Anjie's beloved will have one more.

Who knows what will happen in the future? It's like no one knows how many O'Brien Cups Anjie can win.
