Chapter 565: A Fork in the Road in History

"Over the years, the teams that have won the battle of Tianwang Mountain have a greater chance of qualifying. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info So today, I am very optimistic about the Trail Blazers to complete the two-game winning streak at the ATT Center. Although I don't know what problems Popovich has prepared for the Trail Blazers, overcoming difficulties and overcoming difficulties is also one of the characteristics of the Trail Blazers!" Yu Jia once again spread his voice to the ears of every fan in China.

From the beginning of the Western Conference semifinals to the live commentary in the United States, until now An Jie has played the sixth game of the Western Conference Finals, Yu Jia has witnessed An Jie accomplish too many impossibilities.

For example, the crushing eight-game winning streak to advance, such as the 11 blocks in a single game against Gasol Jr. broke the historical record. Yu Jia witnessed An Jie's full record of coming here, so he really didn't want An Jie's efforts to end here.

Looking around, the narrators from countless countries are muttering in their respective languages. CCTV's commentary desk is only a small part of it. But all these people from different countries and regions gather here for the same purpose, to witness history!

Bill Wharton's commentary desk is behind CCTV, although he has been retired for many years, although he has seen the rise and fall of countless teams. But when the Trail Blazers stood at this fork in the road of history, Bill Wharton found himself trembling.

The last time the Trail Blazers reached the finals was in the 91-92 season, which was already a matter of the last century! If An Jie succeeds today, he will break this dusty record that has been sealed for nearly 20 years! 20 years! 20 years is enough time for a young and enthusiastic Trail Blazers fan to become a middle-aged bloated uncle. When the Trail Blazers in their forties and fifties saw their team make it to the Finals, the shock they felt in their hearts was beyond anyone's comprehension.

So today, not just Bill Wharton, but the whole of Portland and China are looking at Anjie. This is indeed a fork in the road in history, and AnJie will have the opportunity to once again put his name in history!

"Are you okay, Bill?" said Bill Wharton's commentary partner, who was a little worried when he saw that he was shaking all the time. After all, Bill is not young, and the NBA arena is too stimulating for their hearts.

"I just...... Somewhat excited. Whew, they're coming in. "Bill Wharton put on the headphones, and the battle of history is about to begin!

In the tunnel of the players, Anjie remembered his conversation with Duncan yesterday. The "Stone Buddha" wearing slippers and ice cubes will definitely not make it easy for him today.

The Spurs will leave no stone unturned because they have no way back. In Ricard's words: if we don't fight now, we won't even have a chance to fight!

"Guys!" shouted Anjie, who was about to take the lead, as the team was about to play. Everyone looked up at the leader who stood at the front, like a lighthouse.

"Everybody, up!" said Anjie, leading the way out of the players' tunnel. In an instant, the Spurs fans on both sides of the tunnel were offering the insults they had been preparing for a long time.

But the Trail Blazers were not intimidated by this formation, and they still ran forward with determination and fearlessness. These guys stepped onto the court with a resolute expression and a determination to win!

"Tim, let's have a fight!" Anjie walked to the center circle, crossed Split, and spoke directly to Duncan.

Duncan was expressionless and did not respond. He knew to stare blankly ahead, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him. But An Jie knows that such a Duncan is the best Duncan!

The fans are all on their feet and the commentators are ready. Players on both sides are running and jumping and ready to go to war at any time.

"Are you ready?" the referee walked between Anjie and Split, and in his hand, he was holding the basketball that would decide everyone's fate.

"Whew. Anjie took a deep breath, his ears seemed to be much quieter, so quiet that he could hear Split's heartbeat.

The referee threw the ball into the air, and An Jie felt that everything in front of him was slowing down. He leaped high and flicked the ball to his own half with his fingertips. In an instant, the commotion of the fans, the passionate words of the commentators and the shouts of the players on the field all poured into An Jie's ears.

The race is on, the game that can change history, it's on!

As soon as An Jie stepped into the three-point line, he found that Duncan had been inseparably pasted. Based on the experience of so many previous matchups, Popovich no longer expects Split to be able to contain Anjie. So today, he asked Duncan to confront An Jie as soon as he came up, even if it would make Duncan's physical burden very huge, he would not hesitate! If this game is lost, then it makes no sense for Duncan to retain his physical strength.

Duncan's defense is really much more fierce than before, and this guy has already treated himself as if he was the same person he was five or six years ago. An Jie leaned on Duncan, and found that he was not in a stable position at all.

There was no way, Anjie secretly signaled to Lillard that he couldn't catch the ball. Lillard then changed tactics and passed the ball to Iguodala.

Since being completely activated by Anjie, Iguodala has been doing well.

Leonard tensed his nerves, and Iguodala's strength wasn't in how strong his individual singles were. It's this guy who always creates opportunities for himself and his teammates.

Seeing Anjie coming up and preparing to block Iguodala, Leonard kept an eye on it and shifted his center of gravity in the direction of the pick-and-roll.

Iguodala's eyes widened, and suddenly activated. But unexpectedly, this Trailblazer No. 9 broke through to the side that was not blocked!

"Fake blocking, Leonard reacted quickly, but he was still half a body behind Iguodala!"

Leonard didn't dare to act rashly, so he had to stick to Iguodala to make it difficult for him to move forward. Because the controversial penalty scale in the second game drew attention to the league, the referees' whistles are now much fairer, but at the same time a lot stricter. Leonard didn't dare to risk a foul to stop Iguodala, so Iguodala stumbled to the edge of the three-second zone.

Iguodala saw that Split hadn't had time to defend the basket, so he decided to play one of his own.

He suddenly took three steps with the ball in his arms and was ready to go to the basket. At the same time, Leonard immediately jumped, and in the air, the two strong No. 3 players collided solidly!

"Although the physical confrontation is very intense, I have to say that Leonard's defense is really clean this time!"

No fouls!Iguodala was so resistant that he could barely get the ball out.

The basketball bounced to the neck of the basket, Iguodala was very unwilling, and Leonard breathed a sigh of relief. The first attack of the Trail Blazers was successfully defused by him!

Just as Leonard and Iguodala had just landed, a huge figure flashed past them.

"Stop him!" Duncan yelled, and Leonard realized that the person who had just quickly cut under the basket was Angel!

The basketball bounced out, and An Jie jumped high, grabbed the basketball with both hands, and pressed it into the frame!

Duncan would love to jump up and stop the dunk, but now 36 years old and suffering numerous injuries, Duncan can't soar again.

Anjie's swift dunk gave the Spurs fans at the ATT Center a blow in the face.

"Not to that extent, Tim. After An Jie landed, he patted Duncan's chest. The referee immediately became nervous, and he thought that a conflict had broken out between Anjie and Duncan. However, nothing happened.

Duncan just silently picked up the basketball on the ground with that poker face, and An Jie quickly retreated after patting Duncan.

It's a man-to-man showdown, in basketball fashion!

Then the Spurs' offense, Duncan still did everything he had to do.

Block and dismantle without the ball, open up space, and actively contain ......

This guy didn't lose his mind because of his secret battle with Anjie, and the most commendable thing about the Spurs and Duncan is that no matter what the situation, they will remain calm and play calmly.

Thanks to Duncan's efforts, Tony Parker was able to break into the box without Anjie and finish the throw.

Aldridge is also working very hard, but the style Parker throws this kind of thing, only Angel can accomplish.

2-2, Duncan didn't hit a response shot, but Parker's scoring and Duncan were inseparable. Anjie must find a way to get Duncan in order to get the defense of the whole team.

"Positive, positive. Defend more aggressively!" Popovich's yelling appeared on the sidelines early, and he didn't want to see Anjie score with ease with a dunk again.

Lillard didn't have modesty this time, he pretended to direct Iguodala to run the ball, but in fact Aldridge broke through with a pick-and-roll start.

Although only a first-year, everyone at the Spurs knows that this rookie of the year isn't a fuel-efficient lamp either.

Split had already been forced to overtake by Lillard, and only Danny Green quickly walked to the basket to make up for it.

At this time, An Jie suddenly moved. Duncan didn't dare to slack off, if Anjie received Lillard's ball, it would be very dangerous!

Sure enough, Lillard didn't do it hard, but opted for a pass after the jump.

Duncan stretched out his long arm to intercept the basketball. However, to Duncan's surprise, the basketball did not fly in the direction of Anjie, but was beaten outside the three-point line!

Wesley Matthews appeared in the bottom corner, and there was a big empty seat in front of him. The guy didn't hesitate and immediately jumped and shot. Looking at the smoothness of Matthews' shooting movements, Rickard knew that the three points were not running!

"Three! Wesley Matthews!" said the live DJ at the ATT Center without emotion, saying that the visitors couldn't shout too passionately when they scored.

But even that couldn't stop Rickard from throwing punches. Duncan now understands that Anjie's run just now was not to catch the ball, but to take himself away from the passing route.

This young guy watched the game very thoroughly, which is what Duncan admires most about Anjie. He's young, but old!

However, to the delight of Spurs fans, just one round later, the Spurs equalized again.

This is Duncan's singles with An Jie in the low post after he is about to get to the position, and seeing this scene, almost everyone raises their hearts to their throats.

Duncan pushed forward to the basket as hard as he could, and even An Jie was arched back again and again.

To be able to become a living legend, Duncan is certainly not an ordinary person. Although this guy has kept a low profile in recent years, don't forget, he is still one of the top stars in the league!

Duncan was able to advance, but Anjie's tough defense kept him from getting space to turn around and face the frame. Duncan now wants to attack, and there is only one option, a turnaround jumper.

Without much hesitation, Duncan began to move his feet. But in An Jie's eyes, Duncan's current actions are the same as that of little Gasol before, without confusion!

Seeing Duncan jump, An Jie also jumped up. But what An Jie didn't expect was that Duncan's turnaround jumper did not dodge the block, but pounced on himself.

"Did you make a foul?" An Jie couldn't control his body anymore, he slammed into Duncan, and the referee blew what he said was a whistle.

The most important thing is that the basketball that Duncan threw with extremely deformed movements actually hit the board!

"Mr. Fundamentals! Even in the face of fierce confrontation, Tim's shooting will not be affected! The opportunity to hit a three-pointer, Duncan's experience, is unmatched by Ann in any way. ”

After the goal, Duncan and Parker and others silently high-fived. An Jie shook his head, he didn't expect Duncan, an old fox, to make this hand.

After hitting the penalty shot, Duncan patted Anjie on the back as he stepped back past him. "How's that, this intensity, you're satisfied, right?"

The referee was nervous again, and he even had the whistle in his mouth. But as before, nothing happened.

It is not difficult to see through a few rounds of offense and defense that today, whether it is Duncan or Angel, whether it is the Spurs or the Trail Blazers. They're in great shape.

Unlike the last game, where neither side could play efficiently, today, the two sides are destined to bring a real strong dialogue to the fans!

The Spurs and Trail Blazers tied 5-5, while Angel and Duncan also scored one goal each to tie the game.

The fork in the road of history is always the most difficult journey. To win, Duncan and Angel must fall next!
