Duncan's memories of An Jie are too many, and from the first time he and An Jie met, he felt that this young man from China would definitely do something. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At that time, looking at the three young men of the Thunder team, Duncan knew that if these three people continued to develop so strongly, sooner or later they would part ways and take charge of themselves. You know, not everyone in this alliance can survive as long as GDP.

Now, everything Duncan predicted has come true. Anjie has become synonymous with center, and the Thunder three young have indeed become very strong and have become the mainstay of the league. It's just that An Jie has been separated from it and has become the one who is in charge alone.

Duncan didn't want Angel to be the biggest obstacle to his career, but it would also come true! Parker and Ginobili were right, he really had enough crow's mouth.

"Whew......" After taking a breath, Duncan raised his arms and once again carried An Jie's squeezed back. The expressionless No. 21 hasn't faced such a tough opponent for too long, and this kind of matchup should be played in the Finals, not early in the Western Conference Semifinals.

At this point, the third quarter of the game has come to an end. Although the Spurs stopped the downward trend, it only means that they did not let the Trail Blazers continue to stretch the difference, and it does not mean that the Spurs are close to the score.

10 points, the score difference is still double digits. The Trail Blazers' excellent defense as usual is one thing, but Anjie's strength on the offensive end is the biggest reason for this situation.

"Mr. Great Basic Skills", this nickname is the biggest praise for Duncan by fans. But in today's game, Duncan realized for the first time that his nickname was likely to be taken away by another guy.

The kaleidoscope of interior offense is the impression Duncan has given people before. However, today, Duncan's less than half of the shooting rate obviously did not meet the fans' expectations of him.

On the contrary, it was An Jie, who used his all-round offensive means to score again and again on the head of Duncan, who gritted his teeth and tried his best to defend. No, don't look at Duncan's "old age", but most of the insiders in this league still can't pass Duncan's level. The only reason that can be explained is that Anjie's offense is better than Duncan's defense!

After Anjie leaned on Duncan again, Popovich also stood up nervously. Judging from the performance of this game, the move of forcing An Jie to attack with his left hand has lost its effect.

First of all, Anjie will now try to get himself a chance to throw with his right hand. Secondly, An Jie was forced to use his left hand a few times today, but he still hit the ball very well!

Up to now, An Jie's shooting rate is still 100%! That's right, the game has been played to the end of the third quarter, but An Jie still maintains a full shooting rate. This kind of thing has never been done even by Duncan, a "Mr. Great Basic Skill"!

This time, Duncan's defense was still working hard, what about An Jie? He didn't rush to make a choice, but first tested Duncan's defensive center of gravity with his back.

Then, Raymond Felton's abrupt escape cut in made Duncan a little distracted. The cut in this position is just right for An Jie to send a second pass.

Duncan hasn't forgotten that when Popovich showed them the video of the Trail Blazers' game, Anjie used the pass from the back of his head to send Crawford an aerial relay.

Even that kind of ball An Jie can pass, and with Felton's cut, An Jie can also complete the assist!

Duncan was a little embarrassed, but seeing Felton cut in so resolutely, he still moved his pace slightly, ready to wait for an opportunity to make up for it.

Just when Duncan had just taken a small step, Anjie, who was holding the ball, suddenly activated! He turned to the left, and then skillfully retreated, and then got out of Duncan's blocking range.

Duncan's heart was half cold, but he still actively reached out to interfere.

An Jie's posture in the air is very stretched, and it has not affected his requirements for technical movements because of the progress of the game and the consumption of physical strength.

What's so hard about this ball? It's not difficult at all, and the flip jumper after holding the ball with your back is a simple skill that most interior players have to master.

But it's a simple basic technique that most interior players in the league can't do today. Anjie not only did it, but also did the most basic technical action to the extreme.

Since he was in college, An Jie has been accustomed to this trick. The picture of him killing Stanford University with this action back then is still vivid.

After so many years, although the people who defend An Jie have become stronger, An Jie is also in the field of step-back jumpers after turning over, reaching the peak.

"Brush. "The soft sound of the net rolling, even in the noisy rose garden, is so appealing and catchy.

There is no Griffin-style dunk, no Howard-style rampaging baskets, no Lefou-style long-range three-pointers. But with such a basic move, An Jie successfully widened the score gap to 12 points!

"An's basic skills in the low post are really good!" Kenny Smith sighed for Duncan, not that the old guy with facial paralysis didn't work hard, but he couldn't prevent it!

"Is it just a low-post technique? Maybe you've forgotten Ann's change of direction in front of him, his elusive passing, his masterful positioning. I'll tell you Kenny, Ann, he's a living basketball textbook!" O'Neal took Kenny Smith's words and held Ann Jie even higher.

Divac, who watched the game at home, was the happiest person except for Anjie, and the excellent player they said was their most proud protégé!

In the subsequent games, Anjie's strength spread to every corner of the defensive and offensive ends. He's been like a shadow over the Spurs.

Spurs scored, Anjie scored. The Spurs couldn't score, but Anjie could still score. Now the Spurs are not facing a tactical problem, because Anjie is still unable to be stopped even if he does not rely on tactics.

"What the fuck hell!" Popovich looked up at the score on the big screen as the third quarter finally ended and Duncan walked off the court out of breath.

75-61, the entire third quarter, became An Jie's performance time. scored 14 points on 7-of-7 shooting, which was Anjie's answer in the third quarter.

The angry Popovich couldn't help but burst into a foul language, in fact, in the third quarter, the Spurs have gradually adapted to Ricard's kind of defense where man-to-man and joint defense are combined and converted to each other, although their offensive efficiency is not good, but it is also a great improvement compared to the first half.

But at the end of the day, they were still 14 points behind. In the final analysis, it is because of Anjie's performance that is really beyond the normal range.

"Don't give up! We almost succeeded! Ann's magical performance won't last long!" Popovich has been a head coach for 16 years, and he has seen so many amazing things. For example, Maddy's 35.13 seconds made the Spurs' victory slip away.

But Popovich doesn't believe in evil, he just doesn't want to believe that Anjie, who was limited badly in the first two games, can break out without warning after returning to the home field!

Without warning, this word is really suitable for An Jie's performance today. Anjie's assist performance in the first quarter of the game was more eye-catching than his own goal, but in the second quarter, the Trail Blazers' defensive counterattack became the main theme.

It wasn't until the third quarter of the game that just ended, that An Jie showed his magic on the offensive end, and people were surprised to find that An Jie hadn't conceded a single ball today.

Popovich gritted his teeth, he did not hesitate to use the bag clip on Anjie, and it was bound to curb his momentum!

However, something unfortunate happened for the Spurs. As soon as the fourth quarter began, An Jie continued his good form, shook Duncan with his feet, and successfully hit the board from the side under the supplementary defense of Dior.

This ball can force Anjie to hit the board with a broken side, and Duncan and Dior's defense has actually succeeded for the most part. However, An Jie, who was in a hot state, still scored the ball with the mentality of fighting hard.

Catherine didn't know how long it had been since she had been out of her seat, as if she hadn't sat down since the second half. But she didn't feel tired at all, but felt her blood boiling and fidgeting.

An Jie's excellent performance made all the Trail Blazers fans on the scene fascinated. Among them, of course, also includes Catherine.

As soon as the fourth quarter began, An Jie used a goal to reassure the fans. Losing to the Spurs for the first time, the Trail Blazers went into the fourth quarter with a nine-point advantage, only to be reversed. Today, with Anjie's goal, the Trail Blazers have stretched the gap to 16 points. This time, the Spurs want to complete the comeback, but it will not be so easy.

After that, the treacherous and spicy Duncan and Dior's joint bag did make An Jie very uncomfortable. However, now that the team is leading by a large score, An Jie is not in a hurry, and has kept his mind in a clear state.

Therefore, although his hand is hot now, when he was trapped, An Jie did not force his hand recklessly, but calmly and wisely distributed the ball to the place where there was a vacancy.

As a result, Aldridge was able to show his skills in the fourth quarter. You know, Aldridge is not a fuel-efficient lamp, although he is not as capable of 100% shooting as Anjie, but if Aldridge continues to play like this, the Spurs want to recover the 16-point difference, which is simply a fool's dream!

Bag clips, it is definitely not usable. When Popovich adjusted his defensive strategy again, Aldridge stopped, but Anjie began to score again.

14，15，16，17...... An Jie's streak continues, and now, he has completed 17 consecutive hits, and the Spurs' backward disadvantage has also been stretched to 20 points!

With just 2 minutes and 30 seconds left in the game, Ricard replaced Anjie. He knew that even the Spurs could not complete a 20-point comeback in just 2 and a half minutes!

The situation was just as Rickard had predicted, and after Anjie went off the court, the Spurs began a fierce comeback. But at this time, Contney Lee and Aldridge stepped forward in place of Anjie.

The Spurs were able to close some scores, but they couldn't keep the margin under 10 from start to finish.

Popovich also replaced all of his main players with only one minute left in the game. He gave up, the best coach of the year, this wise white-haired old man, who was forced to give up the game in the Rose Garden!

How subtle was Ricard's tactics? Not necessarily, Popovich almost cracked Ricard's defensive game.

But An Jie used his personal performance to beat the Spurs, Duncan, and Popovich to the point where they had no power to fight back!

All tactics are for the players, and all the players are for the tactical execution. But today's magical performance of Anjie made him above all tactics!

"17 of 17 shots, oh my God, Ann scored 38 points today, and the shooting percentage was 100 percent!" O'Neal hugged his head with his hands in disbelief, magical, it was not enough to describe An Jie's performance today.

84-102, the Trail Blazers pulled one back in Portland at home with an 18-point margin after losing two straight games in San Antonio.

Today, Rickard's defensive set-up, Popovich's brilliant movement, and Stephen Jackson's return to the past will not be remembered.

Because today, because of this game, it only belongs to An Jie!

17 of 17 shots, a number that may have to wait for a while before being broken by another guy......
