The Way of the Center

Chapter 45 : Emotional Outburst

Kevin Love was at a slight disadvantage in the match against An Jie just now, but because of UCLA’s big lead, he didn’t care much about this issue. But when he stepped onto the basketball court again, everything changed.

There is no pick-and-roll, no running positions, no passing people. Mike Taylor handed the ball to Anjie in the first half of the game, and then all the Tornadoes pulled away.

“Open singles! The Tornado team actually used singles tactics!” Paul Philips looked at the changes on the field in disbelief. The Tornado team has never used the tactics of open singles throughout the season, Ricard. What medicine is sold in this gourd?

“Let this kid play singles with me? Don’t look down on people!” Love set his posture and decided to use actions to prove that the Cyclone team chose a wrong tactic.

An Jie framed the ball and made a false shooting, but Love was unmoved. Afterwards, An Jie sank his shoulders and prepared to break through, he first stepped out of his right leg.

“I want to break through so simple?” Love blocked An Jie’s breakthrough route with a horizontal stride. An Jie took off with huge resistance and his entire body lost his balance. Before landing, An Jie raised the basketball. Gao threw to the basket.

“Beep! Defensive foul!”

Fortunately, the goal was not scored, otherwise the price of Love’s foul would be too great.

Love spread his hands after hearing the referee’s decision, indicating that he hadn’t exerted any strength just now. He knew it was impossible for the referee to change the verdict, he just used this to put pressure on the referee.

Two free throws were made, both hollowed into the net. An Jie’s first tactical execution was effective, but the UCLA players hadn’t seen any clues yet.

Westbrook had intended to continue to break through with the ball, but he saw Kevin Love desperately trying to get to the position, and then raised his hand to ask for the ball.

“This guy, do you want to play back?” This season, Westbrook and Kevin Love have had a very pleasant cooperation. He didn’t want to spoil the atmosphere in the team and he still obediently handed over the ball to his current offensive desire. In the strong hands of Love.

Love, if you see this name full of love, if you think Love is a gentle boy, then you are very wrong.

Kevin Love practiced as a shooting guard when he first started playing basketball. Unexpectedly, his height soared after he entered high school, making him an insider. Although he is big, the defender’s skills he learned before have not been abandoned. Love’s shooting speed is still the same as that of a small defender. As an inside player, he can even step back and shoot from the three-point line.

Therefore, after receiving the ball with his back facing Anjie, Love did not go to the basket. Instead, he made a retreat and prepared to shoot directly.

An Jie struggled to take off. Most of the high shot point advantages of the inside team didn’t work for An Jie. Coke’s way of avoiding the block was the quick shot.

Love’s body is flexible and full of tension. The posture in the air is very soft and stretched. Shooting from such a close range is easy for Kevin Love.

“Kevin Love!” As the basketball entered the net, the live broadcaster also shouted out the name of Love. UCLA fans are even more happy after seeing the goal. No matter what the state of Collison and Barmott today, at least we have Westbrook and Kevin Love.

An Jie just didn’t expect that Love would choose to go out directly, and his quick shot really caught An Jie by surprise. But if Love dares to use exactly the same trick next time, An Jie is confident that he can definitely cover basketball.

But it’s useless to think in my heart, but Love’s successful score is a fact on the court. Kevin Love is now full of confidence, and his vigilance towards An Jie is slowly relaxing.

In the second round of both sides’ offense, Anjie still held the ball face-to-face. After reading countless materials and videos of Love, An Jie knew the shortcomings of Love’s slow moving speed, so choosing a face frame breakthrough is undoubtedly the best way. Unlike An Jie’s balanced upper and lower limb strength, although Love’s upper limb strength is not as good as An Jie’s, his lower limb strength is amazing. Therefore, if An Jie always chooses to play with a low post, he will only suffer.

Facts proved that An Jie’s choice was correct. Love, who had weak upper limbs and slow footsteps, was fouled by An Jie’s breakthrough.

UCLA’s head coach Ben Holland has already noticed something. It is indeed a good idea to let Anjie and Love play singles twice in a row, but do you think this can stop the powerful UCLA? joke! Anyway, now UCLA is still leading, Holland simply let this situation develop.

After Anjie saw that Love was good at shooting, he didn’t dare to leave him a step, even though Love is now outside the three-point line. Thinking about the previous games, Kufus and Love are really not tall shooters.

This time UCLA’s offensive point was changed to Cameroon’s prince Bhamote. With Collison’s pick and roll, he finally got rid of the Anthony Ben who was like a brown sugar, and cut to the penalty area.

Asakin defended to the basket, but Bamot did not mean to slow down.

“Asakin? As long as the Chinese is not inside!” Bamott took off directly at Asakin. As long as Anjie is not there, the penalty area is no different to him.

Bamotte takes off and catches the ball. Even if the goal is not scored, it’s okay to make a foul.

While Bamot was still imagining that he could buckle Asakin, he was knocked out by the sudden huge thrust. It feels like being hit by a big truck that suddenly appeared while crossing the road in the early morning.

“Defensive foul, No. 2, An Jie!” The referee did not show any partiality. An Jie’s foul was so obvious, it could even be said to be rude.

Bamotte held his aching waist while the Chinese man stared at him angrily.

“Don’t look down on people!” An Jie said silently in his heart.

“Say! Speak!” Divac muttered in the audience. He emphasized the importance of deterrence to An Jie more than once. Vicious words are also a weapon, and appropriate words that prevent the opponent from attacking can greatly interfere with the opponent’s emotions.

But Anjie is not used to talking trash talking on the basketball court. He rushed back to the penalty area to defend the basket, and responded with a fierce attitude as required, but he still couldn’t speak.

It is reasonable to say that a player’s personality on the court cannot be changed by others. Some are emotional, some are calm, some are irritable, and some are fierce. The impression that An Jie had on the court before was undoubtedly the kind of calm, and it is really rare to see a fierce defense like today.

Now that his team is lagging behind, the opponents dare to do evil on his teammates even if they dismiss it. An Jie’s heart seems to have been stimulated. An Jie is a player who likes to defend more than offense, especially the defense of the penalty area. Coupled with Divac’s persistent instigation, this made An Jie make the move just now.

Sure enough, Bamotte, who was emotionally affected, missed the first free throw. According to NCAA rules, players can grab rebounds after the first missed free throw. An Jie held Kevin Love with his hands, jumped high and took off the rebound.

“What the hell!” Love was very dissatisfied with An Jie’s increasingly rude movements, but it did not result in a foul. Reluctantly, he could only bury his anger in his heart and ran back to his own half with stubbornness.

From the beginning of An Jie’s defense, the smell of gunpowder against both sides is getting stronger and stronger.

Love became tougher on offense and kept fighting An Jie on the inside.

Seeing that Love’s impact on An Jie became fiercer from time to time, Divac, who was sitting down the court, laughed.

When Kevin Love turned to the basket and prepared to force a breakthrough, Anjie’s subtle footsteps exposed his chest to the impact path.

When Le Fu turned around, his elbow just touched An Jie’s chest. The opportunity was at this moment! After An Jie was hit, he fell backwards sharply, and Love took this opportunity to make the basket.

“Goal is invalid! Offensive foul!” Love was about to high-five and celebrate with Westbrook, but he heard the referee’s incredible decision.

After 　　 fell to the ground, An Jie rubbed his chest painfully, and Asakin pulled An Jie to get up. Everyone was deceived. Except for Kevin Love, only Divac and An Jie knew what was going on.

After several rounds of fighting, An Jie has almost mastered Love’s habit of turning around, and the angle of his elbow has been observed by An Jie many times. After mastering these, it is easy to make a foul for Love.

This is not the first time Anjie has used flops in a game. DeAndre Jordan was the first victim. But today, in order to win against a powerful enemy, An Jie must use all means. The potential of the devil, at this moment, completely diffused in An Jie’s body.

“This kid, flop learning is getting more and more stylish.” Morris looked at the picture on the TV and thought of the days Divac taught them.

Love, who has a clean playing duty, now hates the Chinese in front of him more and more. If the team is not strong enough, he will use this kind of tricks. What a skill! ?

But anyway, the Tornado still got the ball.

Bamotte can’t stand it anymore this time. The Chinese has just humiliated himself so much, and now he must do something to get the color back.

When the cyclone team pulled away Bamotte left the defense without authorization, leaving Anthony. Ben was going to double-team Anjie with Love.

“Go back to your place!” Ben Holland yelled from the side of the court, but Bamotte turned a deaf ear, his emotions had already controlled his actions.

“Angel was double-teamed, but Coach Holland seems to be very dissatisfied with the defense. Isn’t it his arrangement? Anthony Bennett! See if Angel can pass the ball out!”

Anjie held up the basketball with both hands, shaking his upper body constantly. Suddenly he tossed the ball behind his head, Love and Bamotte thought that Anjie made a mistake because of facing a double-team.

As a result, Anthony Ben rushed to catch the ball thrown by An Jie. Now that the penalty area is so empty, it’s time for the Cyclone team’s strongest dunker to perform again.

“An Jie! A beautiful pass! Yao Ming! This ball reminds me of Yao Ming! Although the passing position is different, the effect is the same amazing!” The ESPN commentator is full of passion, which reminds him of Yao Ming’s rookie season Shi’s mind doesn’t look at people passing assists, these two amazing Chinese big men. After re-enacting Yao Ming’s pass, can Anjie re-enact Yao Ming’s success?

UCLA’s team song came to an abrupt end in the stands, and the fans of the Cyclone team cheered more and more.

“Anjie bless Iowa State! Anjie bless Iowa State!” The fans shouted this slogan over and over again, they love him.

UCLA now knows why Stanford University was eliminated in the first round. This is not an easy battle, it has never been!
