Early the next morning, Anxi was called up by Jeff Hornacek and started his morning run, Jeff Hornacek said that if he wants to practice running well, physical fitness is the most important, so every morning, Anxi has to get up for a morning run and practice physical fitness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

But after only running for an hour, Jeff Hornacek's face darkened, because he found that Anxi didn't need to practice physical fitness at all, and after running for an hour, he only took a small breath, this physical fitness is already very strong, where do you still need to practice!

What Jeff Hornacek said last night, Anxi didn't understand at first, and slept in the guest room at night, Anxi figured out a little bit of taste, Jeff Hornacek first asked Anxi about the starter, and then said that it is the era of your young people, and then you have to help Anxi train without the ball, does this mean, does it ......

Anxi smiled, the meaning was too obvious, Jeff Hornacek had completely agreed with his relationship with Abby.

Because there was a race in the evening, the running training was postponed by a day, and Jeff Hornacek also asked Anxi to prepare two tickets for the game, ready to watch Anxi's game on the spot.

On March 7, 2012, the Spurs played the New York Knicks at home, which was the first meeting between the two teams this season, and the last meeting.

After the All-Star, Lin Crazy slightly reduced his fever, because of the comeback of Melon Anthony, the ball of the bookmaker has decreased, and there has actually been a certain decline before the All-Star, after the All-Star, the Knicks have played three games, playing the Cavaliers Jeremy Lin got 19 points, 5 boards and 13 assists, and the performance is very hot, but in the next two games, the Celtics Jeremy Lin only got 14 points, 4 boards and 5 assists, and the Mavericks only got 14 points and 7 assists.

And in this game, in the face of the Spurs, if Jeremy Lin can't find his form again, Lin Crazy will be gone forever.

However, Anxi's task in this game has nothing to do with Jeremy Lin, Greg Popovich gave him the task of guarding against Carmelo Anthony, as for Jeremy Lin, the Spurs don't even have a special arrangement, and the wise Popovich has seen through Jeremy Lin's true strength at a glance.

Jeremy Lin is actually an ordinary point guard, good at blocking and dismantling, which just fits Mike De'Antony's tactics, if it weren't for the fact that other teams don't know Jeremy Lin well, the so-called Lin madness would not even be able to appear.

But Jeremy Lin himself doesn't think so, his Lin madness has lasted for a month, but in March, it stopped all of a sudden, he was a little depressed, playing spurs, Jeremy Lin very much hopes to find his form, and this time the opponent has Anxi in the lineup, Jeremy Lin has never forgotten Anxi, after all, Anxi grabbed his rookie challenge MVP, originally he could follow Lin's crazy craze, win the honor of rookie challenge MVP, and become popular again.

As a result, Anxi stole the limelight, and Jeremy Lin was very angry, and he kept thinking about getting back on the field.

Anxi didn't know that Jeremy Lin had been holding back his strength, he was a starter again in this game, since his single defense improved to the top level, Popovich straightened Anxi, allowing him to sit firmly in the starting position, before the game, Popovich also specially instructed Anxi, Anxi's task in this game is to prevent Carmelo Anthony, and Anxi doesn't have to worry about the rest.

Jeff Hornacek took Mrs. Hornacek to sit down in the front row, and the Spurs game, Jeff Hornacek came to watch it for the first time, which couldn't help but remind him of the time, when he was still in the Jazz, he once came to AT& amp; T Arena, with the Jazz eliminated the Spurs in 5 games, but now, the Jazz has become a bad team, Jerry Sloan has also retired to the mountains, and the Spurs are getting stronger and stronger.

Tim Duncan and Amar Stadamayre were preparing to jump in the center circle, and the five starters on both sides were all in place, with Anxi standing on the right, facing Carmelo Anthony, his opponent in this match.

Anxi's mind quickly popped up Carmelo Anthony's technical characteristics, offensive kaleidoscope, extremely strong ability to play in the low post, and an extremely stable mid-range shot, it can be said that Carmelo Anthony will be the most difficult opponent Anxi has encountered to defend, because Anthony's offensive means are too much, and Anxi can't defend Anthony like defending Derrick Rose.

Derrick Rose is the kind of star player with a fresh move, Carmelo Anthony is not, if Anxi only defends Anthony's breakthrough, it will inevitably be shot to death by Anthony, so defending Anthony, Anxi is the first challenge after he gets the top single defense bonus.

Anxi thought for a while, the game began, the jump ball was won by Tim Duncan, if Duncan is too old to jump the ball, then Xiao Si is even worse, he can't jump, if it weren't for Tyson Chandler's injury, this game would not have been possible for Xiao Si to jump the ball.

The Spurs won the jump ball, and the game officially began, Tony Parker brought the ball to the frontcourt, and Boris Dio, who started the game, raised the high post and took the pass.

Anxi ran to the bottom corner from a 45-degree position on the left side, attracting Carmelo Anthony's follow-up, and Danny Green on the other side quickly made a cross cover with Tim Duncan, went around to the top of the arc, received a pass from Boris Dio, attracted the defense again, and then transferred the ball, Tony Parker received the pass and scored from the middle distance.

A series of runs caused the Knicks' already weak defense to collapse in an instant, and the Spurs easily scored two points.

On the sidelines, Popovich clasped his hands on his chest and sat back in his seat, as he expected, there was no problem with the opening offense, after all, the head coach of the Knicks was D'Antoni, and the next step was to look at the defense, if Anxi could prevent Carmelo Anthony, the game would be won.

Popovich glanced at Anxi, who was quickly returning to the defense.

Jeremy Lin dribbled past half court, and Carmelo Anthony moved to the top of the arc and opened his hand to ask for the ball.

In the first game of the All-Star, Carmelo Anthony took back his possession, and after the All-Star he played a few more games, Anthony wanted to get the ball, naturally he was more proficient, Jeremy Lin handed the ball to Anthony, and after the All-Star, he became a functional point guard, and he was very unhappy about this.

Carmelo Anthony struck a triple threat pose, which was Anthony's signature move, and the rest of the Knicks quickly pulled away, which was about to be singled.

Anxi concentrated, he knew that Anthony was not so easy to deal with, and he didn't know what Anthony's next move would be.

Carmelo Anthony moved, his right foot probed, Anxi still didn't move, he stood firmly in place, stretched out his arms.

After probing, Anthony found that he couldn't shake Anxi, so he turned around and rushed two steps towards the low position, Anxi was tightly attached, and the single became a low back hit, and Anxi's right arm was L-shaped against Anthony.

The ****** of the melon pushed back twice, and Anxi expected it in advance, and withstood the two impacts stubbornly.

Finding that he couldn't resist Anxi, Melon chose to turn around again, but Anxi blocked the way for Anthony to break through first.

Seeing this, Anthony's reaction was also very fast, directly taking a step back, and coming to shoot a step back.

However, An Xi had already thought of it, pounced on it, and sealed his eyes!

However, only a smack was heard, and the ball actually went in!
