Chapter 322: Crossing the Mire

The abnormal relationship with Jaldina ended, not only did not make Anjie feel upset, but instead made him feel relaxed. Although Anjie had never done anything, he decided to feel guilty towards Katherine and Jaldina. But now, this emotion no longer exists.

Fighting back to back against Magic, An Jie can finally fully devote his mind to the game. The Magic's previous record was 6 wins and 3 losses, which was as good as the Trail Blazers' 7 wins and 2 losses. Therefore, this game was also a direct conversation between the two strongest players in the East and the East, which naturally made the ratings of major TV stations become more impressive again.

Winning two consecutive wins back-to-back at home and striving for a back-to-back away game. This is what Ricard demands for the Trail Blazers this week's horror schedule.

The core of the Magic is "Warcraft" Howard, but Ricard has Angel under his command. Before the game started, Ricard was confident that he could curb the Magic's core. In such a situation, victory should be easily achieved.

After the game started, Ricard's half of the guess was correct, because Anjie did defend Howard in a very embarrassing manner.

"Dwight Howard's performance this season is already very average, but this game is particularly bad."

"Isn't it? What Howard is most afraid of insiders is to face An Jie. Think about what he played when he played against Yao Ming in the past, and what he played when he played against An Jie today." O'Neal is very familiar with the two people who are fighting on the court now, so what he said also represents absolute authority.

As soon as O'Neal finished speaking, Howard hooked and made a fucking iron under the interference of Anjie. When facing Anjie, who knew how to defend and could not rush up and had a tall inside line, Howard played the most awkwardly.

His athletic ability cannot be swung under the entanglement of An Jie, and his skills are not up to standard. Although Howard laughed with An Jie before the start of the game, after the game begins, An Jie will not be rude to him, a heartthrob.

However, there was still a half of the situation, but Ricard did not guess. That was, the victory was not as easy as Ricard thought. The resistance of other Magic players shocked Ricard.

"Ran Anderson scored outside the three-point line, and Lamarcus Aldridge was knocked out by a pick-and-roll. Take a shot! Hit! If Aldridge is the big guy with the most accurate mid-range shot, then Ran Anderson is the big guy with the most accurate three-point shot! Two shots, Ran Anderson has scored 6 points!"

"Xidu Tkoglu takes action again! He scored again! Although it was a long distance two points, this also highlighted Tkoglu's outstanding feel today! In front of the Magic, the basket of the Rose Garden is as wide as the sea!"

Yes, what Ricard didn't expect was that the other people in the Magic team felt so good today.

Anjie did a good job in the inside defense, but the Magic were able to solve the problem with shooting on the outside. It wasn't that the other Trail Blazers gave them too many open opportunities, because even if it wasn't a chance, Magic players could score the ball.

The Trail Blazers' performance is pretty good, especially in the second team, Contney Lee and Jamal Crawford are both in excellent form. Crawford's shooting percentage is not low, and Lee's three-pointer is still dead. But even so, the Magic incredibly bit the score.

In the second quarter, Anjie continued to put pressure on Howard. The decent Howard is now in a mess on the offensive end and is faceless in the defensive end. His strong body will no longer bring too many obstacles to Anjie, because Anjie himself has become stronger. Secondly, Anjie's rich offensive methods also allow him to score while avoiding fighting Howard to the death.

An Jie is using a hook and a footstep. He may not be able to make a tough attack and foul Howard in a tough way. Although Howard is the best defensive player in the past two years, he found that he didn't have many ways to face An Jie.

Under the leadership of Anjie, the Trail Blazers' offense was smooth. Even Aldridge hit a three-pointer from the outside. But the Magic were not afraid of being unable to defend themselves, because they could always equalize the score with a shot in the next round.

In the second half, Howard saw that he could not score directly, so he used the foul play. Fortunately, the Trail Blazers' substitute Cote Thomas and Marcus Camby shared a lot of pressure for Angel and Aldridge.

Howard stood on the free throw line as he wished, but his free throw shooting percentage was shocking. yi made 3 of 2, and this shooting percentage was not as accurate as someone else's three-pointer.

Yes, the three-pointers of the Magic team players are really too accurate. It is so accurate that it is so unreasonable that if only one player is accurate, the Magic team will not be able to escape the fate of losing. Unfortunately, except Howard, all the Magic are accurate today!

It seems that the Trail Blazers have the advantage in the scene, but until the end of the game, neither side has decided to win or lose.

In the last 30 seconds, the two sides tied with Yio 4. At this time, the Trail Blazers held the offensive ball rights. In the whole game of Rose Garden, each of the five people on the court has the ability to finish the game.

But to be on the safe side, Ricard arranged for Angel to perform the final shot. The other three players except Felton kept interspersing the run outside the three-point line, pulling the Magic's nerves.

Finally, Anjie got an opportunity to go against Howard in the inside. Facing Howard's tough defense, Anjie pushed in two steps. But these two steps were already the limit that Anjie could reach.

Howard was also not relaxed. He was afraid that Anjie would sit back again, so he placed his center of gravity on the support legs behind him.

Unexpectedly, An Jie suddenly turned around and made a jump shot. Howard was caught off guard and reacted slowly for a few seconds. Just using this few seconds, An Jie took action calmly before Howard completed the blockade.

Howard nervously shrank the basket and was ready to fight for the rebound. But in the end, the basketball bounced a few times on the basket and finally fell into the goal.

"Oh! An! Great goal! Only 5 seconds left for the Magic, the Trail Blazers are now two points ahead! If the Magic didn't score the last goal, then what Anger just completed will be a wonderful final shot!" O'Neal still remembers that in Anger's rookie season, the yi shot by Anger determined whether the Thunder could enter the playoffs. It was like this back-playing jump shot after the back shot.

At that time, the green Anger failed to shoot the ball on O'Neal's head, causing the Thunder to be locked out of the playoffs. But now, he is more mature and calm, but he has completed this yi shot that determines the outcome.

In the last five seconds, Tkoglu fired outside the three-point line. Aldridge straightened his long arm, but he still didn't touch Tkoglu's extremely high-curve shot. Unfortunately, although the Magic's three-point shooting percentage today was as high as an abnormal 59, Tkoglu failed to hit the most important three-pointer.

When the basketball came out of the frame, the fans of the entire Rose Garden stood up and raised their arms and cheered wildly. The Magic's good luck was used up until the end of the game.

What a perfect ending to defeat the best defensive player and defeat the Magic in the way he was. Anjie did not cheer as crazy as before. Now he will no longer be excited for a win in the game for a few hours.

If An Jie is not excited, it does not mean that the fans are not excited. The top ten balls are ranked first, and this position belongs to An Jie again and again. This shot has been watched by fans over and over again hundreds of times.

Howard scored only 3 points on 5 of 2 shots, Anjie scored 28 points and gave a final kill. He fought with Warcraft again, and Anjie also won again.

After resting late, before the craze of Anger's ultimate magic tricks had passed, Ricard took the Trail Blazers to San Antonio.

The last time I defeated the Spurs was because the calm Spurs inexplicably lost their feelings that day. But this time, the Spurs obviously did not make the same mistake.

Perhaps because Aldridge didn't have the chance to run around the Rose Garden this time, their good luck was not brought to San Antonio.

The Spurs played their own style, fighting against the Trail Blazers with extremely high efficiency and patience.

The Trail Blazers also have Spurs team battles, but they are not efficient.

Except for Angel, Aldridge and Contney Lee, other Trail Blazers players finally experienced how troublesome it is to feel badly.

As the saying goes, yi punches cannot beat four hands, and relying on An Jie and the other three alone can't compete with more than ten people who performed well in the Spurs. In the end, at the aTT center, the Trail Blazers finally stopped their unstoppable steps and defeated the Spurs by five points away.

94 to 99, the Trail Blazers' consecutive away journey was very unsmooth from Yi, and losing to the Spurs is not unacceptable. But for the Trail Blazers who are used to winning, this failure still seems so heartbreaking.

As always, An Jie scored a double-double, with 27 points and 2 rebounds. Unfortunately, basketball is never a personal sport. Even if An Jie can win the game, it is based on everyone's joint efforts.

After losing in a fierce confrontation, the Trail Blazers players still couldn't rest. They had to fly to Houston overnight to prepare for tomorrow's back-to-back game with the Rockets.

The Trail Blazers, who are also fighting back to back, are more tired than the Rockets. This is the first time that Ricard realizes that physical fitness will have such a huge impact on players. The performance of Trail Blazers players is completely different from before.

There is another question, that is, Ricard is very worried about Angel's meniscus.

Although Anjie has no problem now, Ricard has shortened Anjie's playing time to be on the safe side. In the long regular season, seeking victory in a steady manner is the long-term way.

Both sides' states became very poor due to the intensive schedule. This game was extremely ugly. Neither the Rockets nor the Trail Blazers could make smooth and beautiful attacks. Anjie was in a stable state, but the lack of enthusiasm of others undoubtedly increased Anjie's difficulty on both offense and defense.

The general is the most suitable for this game to be drawn. The forced selection of winners among two teams with poor performance is the main theme of this game.

In the end, the Rockets narrowly defeated the invading Trail Blazers with Kevin Martin's slightly recovered touch. Compared with yio5, the Rockets became the general among the shorts, and the Trail Blazers also ushered in their first consecutive defeat this season.

Angel scored 30 points in this game, but unfortunately, when Aldridge, a stable guy, can only get a 4o shooting percentage, it is difficult for the Trail Blazers to win.

Although he lost the ball, Ricard made a big sigh. At least, the Trail Blazers survived the damn intensive schedule of this week without any danger.

2 wins and 2 losses, this result is not unacceptable.

After crossing the mud, although there were some scratches, the Trail Blazers will continue to move forward in the future!
