The Way of the Center

Chapter 14: : Head-to-head (Part 2)

   DeAndre Jordan felt a trace of anger in his heart, but he still forced himself to suppress the impulse. I was fooled in the attack just now, and I fell a lot of fights. It's still a long time anyway, I have time to fight with you!

   Anjie knows that the key to the outcome of this game lies in the control of the inside line. Only when he opens the situation can his teammates have the opportunity to break through or shoot. In the next game, it depends on him and DeAndre Jordan who can give priority to control of the penalty area.

   Jordan was not affected by the ball just now, and his performance on the court is still active. When weight and strength are not dominant, it is obviously very difficult for Anjie to resist the violent impact of Jordan. In this offense, Jordan drove An Jie in a few strokes, and made a layup in the basket with ease.

   No one can defend all the balls, but An Jie found a very bad signal in the opponent's attack just now. DeAndre Jordan's power is much stronger than Anjie imagined. After Anjie started to train himself every day, he hadn't been at an absolute disadvantage in strength for a long time. However, the confrontation with Jordan just now reminded him of the feeling of powerlessness when he was fighting against Morris and Asakin for the first time in training.

   This time the Tornado’s offense was not handed over to others to complete. Mike Taylor honestly passed the ball to An Jie, who was still in a good position. An Jie's agile footsteps made him comfortable offensively, a standard turn and a low layup, An Jie made another move. Other players also occasionally performed, but most of the time the ball is still in the hands of these two centers.

   The game went on unhurriedly in the wonderful melee of the two big men inside, until the first half of the game lasted for four minutes and twenty-three seconds, Ricard called a timeout. At this moment, they tied the score with Texas A&M University, both scoring 11 points.

"Others have to find a way to support Anjie! Don't be deceived by the pre-match media hype! This is the Iowa State University Cyclone team vs. Texas A&M University Farmer's Children's game, not a pair of Anjie and DeAndre Jordan A match! You said that if you work hard alone, all of you must work hard! Don’t forget how we won the previous match, our integrity! I want to see your integrity!” Ricard The voice is almost hoarse, but in this noisy environment to make sure that his players can hear what he is saying, he also has to maintain this volume to speak.

   After Ricard finished speaking, Divac, who had been sitting on the bench, stood up and walked towards Anjie.

   "You played hard, right?" Divac asked.

   "Yes, his physical fitness is much better than I thought. Whether it is offensive or defensive, it is very difficult to limit him." An Jie told his coach the truth.

"You are using your weaknesses to compare with others' strengths. Of course, it is difficult. Don't forget that the basic basketball skills are the biggest shortcoming of Jordan. If you catch the opponent's shortcomings, you can beat him. And I remind you You don't want to be entangled with him all the time, the best way is to let him go." At this point, Divac blinked at Anjie.

   Ricard accidentally saw the look in Divac's eyes, and he also understood the meaning of the eyes, his back numb immediately.

   This old devil, he doesn't teach much good things to An Jie, but instead teaches a lot of these bad tricks. I only hope that An Jie can get to that level and don't be self-defeating.

   Both sides returned to the court, and the Texas A&M University still focused on Jordan’s individual singles. As for the Tornado team, after being reminded, An Jie and his teammates all walked out of the state of one person playing four people, and they became the Tornado team that never stopped running.

   Mike Taylor made a hit.

   Cruz hits a two-pointer from long range.

   These two **** are the scoring opportunities created by the Cyclone team relying on aggressive off-ball running and complex and tacit off-ball pick-and-rolls.

   As long as An Jie keeps Jordan in check, there will be more and more opportunities for other teammates. If the defensive backbone of a team is constrained, it is not an exaggeration to reduce the quality of the team's defense by half.

   Texas A&M University's head coach Carter Robertson frowned when he was on the court. The Tornado team's offense has improved momentum, but look back on your side. Little Jordan did not help his teammates in the tactical attack, his pick-and-roll consciousness is poor, and he can't subconsciously. Now he will only blindly ask for the ball to play singles, and after entering the single state, he will rarely pass the ball out again. However, who made this guy in a hot state recently and broke the record of consecutive goals in one fell swoop. Let him continue to play in singles and wait and see. Anyway, Jordan is playing really well now.

   It is for this reason that Robertson did not change his tactics, but continued to let Jordan solve the problem by himself. So in the offense of Texas A&M University, DeAndre Jordan once again leaned on Anjie to receive the ball.

   confronted little Jordan again, and Anjie kept repeating what his teacher Divac had just said in his mind. Grab the opponent's shortcomings and you can beat him.

   The basic basketball skills are poor and the basketball IQ is not high. These are the two biggest shortcomings of DeAndre Jordan. Such an opponent is easy to deal with. Didn't Divac just taught himself such a trick...

   DeAndre Jordan really failed to come up with other recruits, and started to beat Anjie back up, hoping to continue to score in the same way.

   For the first time, he felt the resistance behind him, and he took a big step forward with his strength advantage.

   For the second time, he still felt that An Jie was trying his best to stop him, but all this was in vain.

   For the third time, he decided to use his force suddenly, squeezing out the thin defender in one fell swoop, and then scored again. However, unlike what he had imagined, when he made the third force towards An Jie, he felt his back was empty, and he lost his center of gravity due to excessive force.

   During the first two attempts of little Jordan, Anjie only deliberately made the illusion that he was going to die with him to the end, in order to make the self-confident little Jordan full back in the third time. When the little Jordan really went backwards with all his strength, Anjie deliberately took a step back, causing little Jordan to go up and down. Little Jordan, who had lost his center of gravity, couldn't control his steps. He held the basketball and walked for four or five steps before stabilizing and not falling.

   "Beep!" The whistle sounded, walking without a doubt, and the ball was exchanged.

   "What the hell!" Little Jordan spread his hands and looked at the referee innocently. But the rules are the rules, and walking is walking.

   "You opportunistic fellow!" Little Jordan snarled at Anjie in dissatisfaction. Only Morris knows the character of An Jie, no matter how provocative and dissatisfied you are, An Jie will not respond easily. He will only respond to the opponent's provocation with actions. You must know that Morris was the first person who uttered an embarrassment to An Jie and didn't get a single response.

   "Haha, not bad, not bad." Divac watched from below, clapping his hands and cheering, and he wanted to dominate the inside without brute force.

   DeAndre Jordan became angry and anxious after the ball, and his movements were no longer controlled by his brain. So in the subsequent offense of the Tornado team, Anjie kept walking to lure Jordan, and finally cheated a foul.

   "I didn't bump into him, he ran into him!" Little Jordan shouted at the referee beside him. The referee just beckoned him to go back and stand, or don't blame him for being impolite.

   However, An Jie made only one of two free throws this time. On the first free throw, An Jie couldn't control his shot, and the shot was a bit crooked. This also means that he now owes Ricard and Divac each fifty push-ups.

   Jr. Jordan once again took the ball in singles, An Jie used the small gesture of grabbing the jersey behind his back to continuously interfere with DeAndre Jordan's offensive rhythm. While Xiao Jordan was unable to concentrate, An Jie's center of gravity suddenly moved forward, reaching out from behind and patted the basketball in Jordan's hands. Anthony Ben immediately picked up the ball, quickly advanced to the opponent's half, completed a beautiful one-stop dunk, fully demonstrated his athletic talent in front of people, this is also the first half of the game so far. Got the ball.

   Through this goal, the point difference on the field was also widened to six points. 29 to 23, Carter Robertson had to call a timeout.

"DeAndre, calm down! The performance you are doing right now is in the arms of the Asian big man!" Robertson kept reminding his immature child that the opponent's center has the old fox from Divac. In teaching, he can think of a thousand different ways to stimulate little Jordan's nerves.

   "You first rest off the court, and I will send you on the court when you calm down." Robertson patted Jordan on the shoulder, and then continued to lay out tactics on other players. Little Jordan left the towel on his head~www.NovelMTL.com~ He didn't move and said nothing.

  ………………..

   At this point in the game, both sides also changed into their own rotation lineups. The Tornado is currently only Anthony Ben as a starter, and he will withstand defensive pressure when Anjie is not on the court.

   What surprised everyone was that when DeAndre Jordan was not on the court, Texas A&M University’s offense improved and played in a decent way. It's just a little bit worse on defense.

   "This is not good news for that kid." Divac said to himself.

   Yes, at this moment Carter Robertson has also seen the team's changes. DeAndre Jordan has almost no offensive tactical effect on the court, and he can't play anything other than his own singles. The reason why they were able to win the first three games was because Jordan played so well. However, today, Jordan met a smart guy, he would not have been so consumed with DeAndre, he just made DeAndre a walk and a foul can already be seen.

   Robertson is now undecided in his mind. While thinking about it, Texas A&M University has relied on smooth offense to chase the difference to only two points. The team played quite well. If DeAndre couldn't perform well against the Asian boy in the following games, then he would have to press Jordan on the bench.
