Chapter 321: Just Friends

If the Trail Blazers used to give people the impression that they "rely on Angel to win", then today, people's impression of the Trail Blazers will definitely be broken.

How did the Clippers lose? They lost under the strong integrity of the Trail Blazers! Especially in the last two and a half minutes of this game, the Trail Blazers' characteristics were fully reflected.

Every one of them is willing to contribute, every one of them is willing to give. Every one of them is the key to the victory of the Trail Blazers, and every one of them is the offensive focus of Ricard's hands.

But of course, although the Trail Blazers win by teamwork today, this does not mean that An Jie has lost his due role.

Although An Jie scored two points on free throws in the last two and a half minutes, his core role was unquestionable. His support after receiving the ball, deterrence on the defensive end, restraint on the offensive end, and the long pass from the backcourt that caused indirect assists. If it were a person, he wouldn't have been able to do this. But An Jie handled the entire team's offense and defense in an orderly manner.

"The Portland Trail Blazers are already an excellent team, but don't forget that they are still improving! Other teams are taking advantage of the offseason to run in, while the Trail Blazers are using the help of real high-intensity games to run in. Once they complete the running in, the strength of this team will only increase and not decrease! Okay, let's see who the best player today is. Of course, who else can it be? Anjie!" As soon as Kenny Smith finished speaking, Anjie's highlights were deflated on the TV screen.

"3o points, yiyi, rebounds, 8 assists, 2 blocks and steals! An is definitely the most versatile center in the league, no!" O'Neal had a good relationship with An Jie in private, but now An Jie has been named the best in the game, and he praised him even more.

"If I remember correctly, Anjie can score double-double in every game this season, and his blocking will definitely not be less than two. Last year's All-Star Game, because Anjie and Yao Ming both missed, the West did not even choose a center! In the end, Tim Duncan will go to the center position. This year, let's welcome An back to the Western Conference star team in advance! The center position has been booked by this guy!" Perhaps only Anjie has this magical skill, which allows O'Neal and Barkley, two old friends and enemies, to be able to argue without quarrel during the commentary process, and their opinions are highly expressed.

"Oh my God Felton, your jump step is so beautiful today! Hey, next time you train, coach?" Anjie laughed and patted Raymond Felton's back. Others were chatting in the locker room, talking and laughing. Teamwork not only allows the team to win, but also speeds up the formation of a good atmosphere in the locker room.

Seeing the players so happy, Ricard was frowning. It was not because he was dissatisfied with the team's performance, but because the Trail Blazers' next schedule was simply "terrible".

After this fierce game, the Trail Blazers will play back-to-back against the Magic tomorrow. Fortunately, tomorrow's game will still be played in the Rose Garden, otherwise Ricard would have to take the players to catch the plane overnight.

However, after tomorrow's game, the Trail Blazers must go to San Antonio to fight the Spurs again. After playing the Spurs, the Trail Blazers will have to encounter back-to-back with the Rockets. Continuous running and competition will inevitably make the Trail Blazers players physically and mentally exhausted. Moreover, the continuous high-intensity battles have also made Ricard involuntarily worried about Anjie's meniscus.

Although the first intensive repair surgery has been successfully completed, Anjie's meniscus is also in a relatively healthy state. However, relative health and complete recovery are two completely different concepts.

No wonder Ricard was frowning. The Trail Blazers won this game, but the next three games were really full of crises for the Trail Blazers and Angel. The damn shrinking season has made the density of the game reach an inhumane level. Maximizing interests is the priority of the nBa League. The health and rest of the players? Those two things in front of the US dollar are simply worthless.

Today, even An Jie, a training madman, dare not practice more on himself. Sometimes he must fight to the death, but sometimes he must learn to stop at the right time.

If Anjie practices more today, what will he do to fight Howard tomorrow? But Anjie doesn't want to go home early to rest. In the small villa in Portland, there are only Anjie people. When he goes back, a sense of loneliness will come violently.

Anjie is also a human being. Training and competition are Anjie's job, but after work, Anjie also needs life.

He doesn't like to go to nightclubs, so many times when his teammates go to have fun, Anjie will politely refuse. Moreover, in the Trail Blazers, most people have already got married, and they have a warm family waiting for them after get off work, and they don't have time to wander around with a Chinese outside.

Ricard was willing to invite Anjie to have dinner, but Anjie was not good at disturbing the sweet life of the family of three.

In Oklahoma, he was always inseparable from Morris, but in Portland, Angel had to be alone during most of the breaks.

Katherine is not a well-known model. She has to run around the world for a larger stage and cannot be with Anjie at any time. Anjie's parents are not used to life in the United States, and Anjie cannot arrange their parents in an environment that is not suitable for them for themselves. The one with the best relationship with Anjie in the Trail Blazers is Aldridge, but the introvert Aldridge doesn't like to come out to have fun. Besides, Anjie invited Aldridge to his house for tea the day before yesterday. When the game just ended and another game was about to start tomorrow, he couldn't bother others.

In the past, Anjie used extra practice to increase working hours to consume boring rest time. But today, on the eve of the war, no one came out to have fun, and no more practice. Apart from going home and facing the empty house, Anjie had no choice.

Anjie drove his Rx7 slowly on the not-so-congested street in Portland. If Anjie wanted to go down the accelerator, and without any, with the ability of Rx7, Anjie could drive home in ten minutes. But now, Anjie was deliberately wandering in the street. When he went back, he was idle, so he might as well drive slowly and enjoy the night view of Portland.

But no matter how slow Anjie delayed it, the journey home was only so small. In less than half an hour, Anjie drove the car to the door of his villa's garage. But today, the doorstep was a bit unusual.

It was faintly vaguely that An Jie could see a black shadow standing in front of his house. Judging from the outline, this photo should be a girl.

An Jie stopped the car and approached the girl carefully. It was not that the little girl could do something to the butcher who was 2 meters yi9, but that An Jie was afraid that he would fall into something troublesome again.

"You are here, An." As she kept getting closer, An Jie finally saw the girl's year. The girl also took the initiative to say hello to An Jie.

"Gardina!? It's been a long time since she met." Anjie looked at the person standing in front of her in surprise. It's been more than a year. Since the Thunder played against the Lakers in the last Western Conference Semi-Finals, Anjie has never met Jaldina again. But today, she suddenly appeared at her doorstep.

Although we didn't meet, Angel and Gardina had contact from time to time. Therefore, Gardina also knew Angel's address in Portland. But Angel did not expect that this little girl would come to her house on her own initiative.

"Why are you here? Come and sit in." Anjie opened the door with confidence, and Gardina followed Anjie into the villa.

"Why are you here? Why don't you call me?" Angel poured a cup of hot water for Gardina. It's still the month, and the weather in Portland is still a bit cold.

"I've beaten, more than one," Gardina replied calmly, as if she was a little unhappy.

Anjie immediately took out his cell phone. Sure enough, there were six or seven missed calls, all of which were from Gardina. When he was driving, Anjie placed his cell phone in the passenger seat and changed it to silent and forgot to call it back. Maybe it was because of this that Anjie didn't receive the call.

"Oh, I'm so sorry for Tina. I...I didn't mean it." Anjie sat opposite Jildina in embarrassment. He could not deal with strange girls at all. Now that he encountered such an awkward thing, he was even more at a loss.

"By the way, when will you come to Portland?" Anjie decided to change the topic so that the atmosphere would continue to cool down.

"Yesterday, I came yesterday. I was in the third row when you beat the Clippers just now." Gardina wanted to surprise Anjie, but who knew that Anjie didn't show himself at all and did not answer the phone after the game.

"It's really...sorry..."

"install."

"Hmm?" An Jie lowered his head, feeling very guilty.

"An, you know? I like you very much."

"Well, I know, sorry...what!" Anjie suddenly looked up, wondering if it was because Gardina was sitting under the chandelier, Anjie found that Gardina seemed to have become the focus of the whole room at this moment.

More mature, Giardina no longer has any sign of a little girl. She wore a sexy backless long skirt, and the low-cut neckline made the white skin appear and faintly.

On this lonely night, a beautiful and charming young girl sat opposite Anjie, unprepared. And that sentence also made Anjie's head short-circuit for a while. He understood what Gardina meant, but he thought that as long as he didn't say it, their relationship would gradually become normal. Unexpectedly, the little girl actually said it on her own initiative.

"An?" Seeing An Jieyi staring at him, Giardina's face turned slightly red. This look was even more fatal temptation.

A lonely man and a widow, lonely man. Anjie is also a man. He admits that he has had an impulse in his heart. But he knows that even Giardina has put the words to this point. What Anjie wants to do is not stupid things, but end the relationship.

"Sorry, Gardina, you know I love Katherine very much. You are very nice, but... the person I love is Katherine, that's all." This time, Angel did not bow his head, but stared at Gardina's eyes bravely.

When Gardina saw Anjie's firm eyes, she was very disappointed at first, but then she felt relieved. Perhaps this was the dream on her youth. Gardina, you are growing up now, and you should wake up.

"Actually, I expected you to say that. It's so happy, Catherine is so happy." Gardina smiled bitterly. It would not last long if it was not his own.

"I know I failed you, Tina, I have to say that I am very happy with you. However, I can't do irresponsible things. I am willing to be friends with you, but I really can't go further." An Jie suddenly became bolder, and he finished all the thoughts in his heart.

"Well, I know An." Gardina wiped the corners of her eyes, but when she looked up, she smiled. "Send me back to the hotel, I'm tired."

"Do you know An? Although I couldn't get along with you, and although you didn't like me either. But now, I really fell in love with basketball because of you. I may also watch your game in the future, but really, just because I want to see the players I like playing."

"You are welcome to Tina at any time. I will keep the seats in the back of the bench." Anjie said goodbye to Giardina at the entrance of the hotel. Finally, after they met for so long, they finally became true friends, not men and women with unclear relationships.

Catherine is still the only thing Anjie has in his heart.

Catherine Yi, who was resting in the hotel, couldn't sleep. She walked to the balcony and looked at the starry sky, her heart full of Angel who had not seen for a long time. She knew that Angel must be in Portland now, looking at the starry sky, missing herself.
