Demar DeRozan went through a lot of hardships before finally getting rid of the entanglement with Matthews. Matthews's defense is really good. If you want to get rid of the defense of such a guy, it will definitely cause a headache for every offensive player.

When DeRozan finally got some suitable space for the ball, his breathing became very rapid. But this guy who gradually showed his superstar potential was still trying to attack Kyle Lowry, who was in control of the ball.

This former Rockets player, now the true core of the Raptors, had no hesitation. His wrist trembled and the basketball moved rapidly.

DeRozan broke through when he received the ball, and had to admit that this guy's explosive power was amazing. In the flash, he successfully broke through Matthews' defense.

Seeing this, Raptors Lithuanian center Jonas Valanciunas immediately withdrew from the penalty area and pulled it to the middle distance.

Like Anjie, who has just entered the league, Valanciunas is a seven-foot center who relies on skills rather than physical survival in the NBA. Although Valanciunas' offensive skills are far less comprehensive than Anjie's back then, and he is not as skilled as Anjie. But letting him shoot in the mid-range shot is undoubtedly letting him score.

Anjie has suffered losses from Valanciunas' mid-range shot several times today, so he gritted his teeth and decided to follow him out.

DeRozan was overjoyed. This perverted tucker with his athletic ability could not help but feel excited. One of his feet had just stepped into the free throw line, and DeRozan glided as if he had grown wings.

"holy, shit!" Even Anjie grew up because of this dunk. Aldridge tried his best to block the ball, but before his palm touched the basketball, DeRozan had already dunked the ball into the basket.

"Demar DeRozan! This guy is raging the basket of Moda Center today! The combination between him and Valanciunas is simply perfect! As long as Angel is pulled empty, the basket is DeRozan's!" Mike Bryn's passionate shout made the fans follow this dunk and the adrenaline soar.

But Mike Brin's partner Van Gundy shook his head: "DeRozan's dunk is indeed wonderful, but I have to admit that the Trail Blazers are still controlling the rhythm on the court. We see that Coach Ricard has called a timeout now. I bet that after the timeout comes back, DeRozan's offense will be silent for a while."

Back then, Van Gundy was suitable for coaching in the Thunder, and Ricard could even use a timeout to deal with Durant and Westbrook DeRozan? Is he rare to be better than Durant?

Sure enough, after returning from the timeout, Ricard replaced Iguodala Batum. Iguodala played the second position to confront DeRozan, while Batum replaced Matthews and continued to provide the Trail Blazers with three-point firepower.

Such a substitution effect was immediate, and Matthews had already made DeRozan a headache. Now that he has changed to Iguodala, who has a more abnormal defense, DeRozan's offense is locked in the outside line.

DeRozan is the kind of guard who is full of athletic but not good at shooting. The further away from the basket, the less effective this guy will be in offensively.

When DeRozan was restricted, Anjie showed his magical powers on the other end.

Angel used the perfect combination of his body and technology to let Valanciunas know that even if his skills are good, his body is an indispensable part.

Why did the center of this league fall? Because many big men have a perverted body, but their skills are so rough. But this does not mean that only skills and no body can achieve success.

Looking back at the four centers in the 1990s, which one is not soft or hard. O'Neal? Don't be deceived by O'Neal's size. This guy's hooking skills at the basket are enough to learn a modern young inside line for several years.

Angel played Valanciunas at the basket without any temper, and the Raptors' offense was blocked layer by layer. Raptors coach Dwyne Casey felt something was wrong. Angel's current positive attitude is to take over the rhythm of the game!

Casey didn't dare to let Anjie continue to fight like this, but looking at the moment, he had neither a solution to the offense nor a solution to the defense.

In this way, when Anjie scored his 33rd point in the game with a gentle jump shot, there were only 5.6 seconds left in the game. At this time, the Raptors, who performed well, were still 6 points behind the Trail Blazers.

At the last moment, Lowry scored a three-pointer. However, the basketball bounced directly to the basket's neck. Anjie hugged the basketball steadily, Valanciunas made a tactical foul and sent Anjie to the free throw line.

Although Valanciunas's approach was correct, Casey also knew that the game was over, and Valanciunas's doing so could only delay their failure.

"mvp!mvp!mvp!..." Anjie went to the free throw line, and MVP shouts suddenly sounded in Moda Center.

This season, similar sounds often appear. So Anjie has long been accustomed to this.

I am the MVP of Moda Center!

Amid the fans' anticipation shouts, Anjie made two free throws, completely killing the Raptors' last hope.

DeRozan buried his head deep. In this game, he scored 36 points and 12 assists, four of which came from Valanciunas, who was unmarked after pulling it open. It can be said that at least for a while, he successfully restricted Anjie's hands and feet. Only when others performed so well could they play with the Trail Blazers until the last moment.

Unfortunately, DeRozan still has to accept the fact that he was defeated. The Trail Blazers...Anjie..., what should we do to defeat them?

100 to 106, the Trail Blazers won their first victory since February. 35 points and 15 rebounds, and Anjie's personal performance is completely worthy of the title of MVP.

The challenge with the old opponents is not over yet, and the new era has begun to bite An Jie's tail.

After defeating the young Raptors and DeRozan, Angel fought another match with the Wizards led by John Wall.

The showdown between Wall and Lillard, two powerful young open positions, is also highly anticipated by fans.

During the game, Wall and Lillard played hard to get a fight. But Anjie successfully stood up and turned a defender battle into his own wonderful performance in the inside.

Gotat and Brazilian Nene tried their best, but Anjie was always able to score in their unexpected ways.

Fantasy dance steps, agile turn, tough dunks, exquisite assists...Anjie's actions made Gott and Nene dizzy. Center, how can he play like this?

With An Jie's successful "spite" situation, the even situation was instantly broken.

In the fourth quarter, the Wizards were completely locked by Anjie. 100 to 90. In the end, Anjie won their sixth five-game winning streak this season in Washington, DC.

After the game, the entire Trail Blazers did not rush to leave, but rested in Washington, DC for a night.

The next morning, Anjie and his teammates left the hotel.

Of course, they are not for training or to rush to the next game. Instead, they are invited by the US president to complete the "traditional" White House journey of the NBA championship team.

This time, the Trail Blazers' journey to the White House has attracted much attention from the outside world, and its popularity has completely surpassed previous years. Because this time, Anjie, a yellow-skinned guy, is the main force of the Trail Blazers. This is the first time in history that a Chinese athlete was invited by the US president to appear in the White House.

When Anjie shook hands with Obama on behalf of the championship player, and when Obama held Anjie's No. 00 jersey and smiled, the flash underneath made Anjie, who had seen countless big scenes feel dizzy.

This time the meeting between the US president and Chinese basketball players has exceeded the simple sports relationship, but has been exaggerated by all parties to be elevated to the level of politics.

In China, the news of Anjie visiting the White House was widely reported. The scene of him shook hands with Obama intimately was repeated countless times by major news stations.

In the afternoon, the Trail Blazers and Obama had a lively outdoor barbecue in the back garden of the White House. Finally, when leaving, Obama did not forget to say to Angel: "Welcome to come again next year."

The White House trip may not be a pleasant one for the players, after all, you will never be able to let go and have fun with these big guys. But this represents a great honor for everyone in the Trail Blazers.

So the next day, with this momentum, the Trail Blazers defeated the Knicks again in New York. Anthony scored 28 points alone, but it turned out that there is really only Anthony in the Knicks now.

Madison Square Garden seemed to have always been Anjie's blessed land. This time, he still left Big Apple City with victory.

This momentum continued until the first two days of the All-Star Game. The Trail Blazers lost back-to-back to the powerful Thunder and the Clippers, and finally ended their streak of winning streaks.

The two consecutive games were lost, one was because the Trail Blazers were back-to-back consecutive away games, and secondly, the Thunder and the Clippers were also strong Western teams. Finally, the two already powerful opponents performed well. All these factors combined, which led to a rare experience of losing streak in the Trail Blazers.

But even so, the Trail Blazers' record is still 36 wins and 5 losses, ranking first in the league.

Perhaps, the short rest of the All-Star Game will allow Trail Blazers and Anjie, who have been busy for most of the season, to get better form to make the second half of the season.

Playoffs? It is 100% true for the Trail Blazers to enter the playoffs. Although the goal of the Trail Blazers is not to surpass their opponents in the second half of the season, the best regular season record of 72 wins is a more difficult challenge.
