Chapter 821
Chapter 840 : Counterattack from the “losers”
When Anjie and his teammates ran out of the player tunnel, reporters and fans were anxious to rush to the court to see if these guys were not human.
This is the first time fans and reporters have seen a living Trailblazer player since the Western Conference Finals. As a closely watched team, it is absolutely unusual for no reporter to contact them before the finals.
Because of this unusual move, the news that the Trail Blazers were fined 500,000 by the league is now well known. Although the outside world has unanimously determined that the Trail Blazers cannot win the championship, people still can’t help but want to see if the 500,000 flowers of the Trail Blazers are worthless.
“We can see that despite the loss of George and Lillard, the energy of the Blazers players is still very full. Under Ann’s leadership, everyone warms up very seriously. This group of guys seem to be confident “Kenny Smith talked about the Trail Blazers before the game started. After all, the Blazers have left too many topics to talk about in the past few days when they were closed to the outside world.
“I can’t wait to see the results of coach Ricard’s closed training these days. No one can guess what coach Ricard will do, because even he doesn’t know what he will do. Come. I hope the Cavaliers are ready, otherwise, they are likely to respond to the gutter and capsize.” Compared to the Blazers lace news, Jeff Van Gundy is more concerned about the Blazers’ play and tactics.
No one knows what this mysterious closed trial training will turn the Trail Blazers into. The outside world says the Trail Blazers lost, but Van Gundy doesn’t think so. Wasn’t the Mavericks who defeated the Heat’s Big Three also led by a single core?
What Nowitzki can do, Anjie, is of course possible!
Not long after the Blazers players came on the court to warm up, everyone from the Cavaliers filed out from another player channel.
Suddenly, the scene flashed and the reporters raised their cameras one after another. The two teams that reached the finals finally stood on the same field!
After James and Wade stepped onto the court, they did not immediately start to warm up, but stared at Anjie on the other side of the court.
“Unexpectedly, the two of us could run into this guy again.” Wade akimbo. During the Heat, An Jie defeated himself and James more than once. Now Wade has circled around, but once again he will join forces with James to fight Anjie.
“Life is such a wonderful Dwyane, just like I didn’t expect the two of us to continue to join forces. Don’t worry, man, this year, we will definitely win!” James finished, picked up the basketball on the ground and started warming up.
Players on both sides have entered a fighting state at this moment. The commentators and basketball fans all over the world can’t wait to wait for the battle to begin sooner!
The time for the start of the game is getting closer, and the atmosphere at the Moda Center is getting more and more popular. Although the Trail Blazers are not favored by the world, at least in the hearts of Portland fans, their players are still the best.
This group of guys didn’t hesitate to shout, and pushed the atmosphere of the scene to the ** before the start of the game.
Ricard looked at his watch under the cheers of the fans, and it was almost time. It’s time to call the players down and make the final deployment!
Ricard roared and waved his hand, calling all the players back. The first five tigers surrounded Ricard, and the others stood on the periphery.
This crazy coach looked around at the players around him. This group of guys will surely surprise everyone!
“Ready? The enemy, but it’s on the other side of us.” Ricard said, looking in the direction of the Cavaliers bench.
“Something nervous, boss.” Napier didn’t hide his nervousness. After all, this was the first time he played the finals as the team’s master.
“It’s okay. It’s better to be nervous now than to be nervous after playing. Hey, as long as we follow the training set, we can definitely win! So don’t worry, okay? This game is just you guys. Their opponents have changed from each other to others.” While talking, James and his Cavaliers have already stood back on the court, and the referee on duty also walked towards the Blazers bench, which should be to signal them to appear immediately.
“Everything is the same as in training guys, let go of your hands and feet and let us win the game! One, two, three…” An Jie said, stretching out his palm.
“Blazers!” The players folded their palms together, yelled, and stepped onto the court.
Van Gundy drank quickly while O’Neal adjusted his seat. This series, which is enough to make the whole world tremble, is finally about to start!
An Jie shook his head, moving his bones. He bounced into the middle circle, only to find that Love had long been staring at him with a serious face.
This guy who had formed a bridge with him when he was in college is definitely mooing, ready to resolve all grievances with basketball on the court.
An Jie looked at Love, who was short of himself, and the expression in his eyes suddenly became very scary. The referee looked at the two big men and confirmed that they were all ready. After that, he suddenly threw the basketball into the sky, and An Jie and Love took off almost at the same time! The 2017-2018 season nba finals is officially open!
Undoubtedly, with height, wingspan, jumping and experience more dominant, An Jie is easy to take a full slap ahead of Love, giving the Trail Blazers the first jump to the ball.
The star-like lineup of the Cavaliers immediately set up a defensive posture, and they don’t want to be scored easily by the Trail Blazers.
Isaiah Thomas, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Tristan Thompson and Kevin Love. The Cavaliers’ starting lineup is simply an entire All-Star lineup. This is why the Cavaliers can easily get out of the east.
On the other hand, the Blazers, Napier, Evan Turner, Iguodala, Morris and Anjie, this is the best team Ricard can come up with. Except for An Jie, no one of these five people has any scoring ability that can reassure fans.
The huge gap between the two sides in the integrity of the lineup is also the reason why people are generally not optimistic about the Trail Blazers. However, the Blazers players were not timid on the court, and even Napier, who was a little nervous before the game began, also acted calmly at this moment.
“Although Isaiah Thomas is short, Napier will not necessarily have the advantage in the face of this guy’s defense. We all know that Thomas has a very strong core strength. Napier has to be careful so as not to be affected by the opponent. A sudden sprint and steal.”
Napier did feel the tremendous pressure brought by Thomas’ defense, but now he is more than enough to deal with the passing problem.
I saw Napier blocking Thomas’ chest with one hand, and a strong flick with the other hand, successfully passing the basketball to Anjie’s hands.
“Napier! After the playoffs, this guy has become more and more mature. This is a brilliant pass. As soon as the Trail Blazers come up, are they ready to let Ann play alone?” Van Gundy widened. Eyes, if the problem can be solved by just letting Anjie play alone, Calder doesn’t have to work so long there. Definitely not, this offense will definitely not be that simple!
Anjie held the ball in the middle distance, and immediately, Love and James planned to complete the double-team. Now that the Trail Blazers are badly injured, Anjie is the only stable offensive point. It’s certainly true to choose double-teaming at this time!
However, just before James and Love have had time to complete the double-team. An Jie suddenly passed the ball again and sent the basketball out.
It took Anjie less than a second from receiving the ball to taking the shot. So when he passed the ball, people hadn’t found out who it was passed to.
“A mistake?” A huge question mark emerged in the hearts of countless fans. Could it be that Anjie was still overwhelmed in the end?
Just when the Blazers fans almost always hold their heads in their hands because of disappointment, Iguodala, who has already got rid of the defender by running back, suddenly appeared in the receiving position.
After receiving the basketball, Iguodala did not hesitate and directly controlled the ball and rushed to the basket along the baseline!
James just walked up to An Jie before he had time to take a look at and found that Iguodala was completely empty!
James subconsciously wants to make up the defense, but Iguodala has jumped high. An extremely exciting tomahawk-style cleavage kicked off the finals that was destined to be equally exciting!
Everyone present was stunned. How did Anjie’s rapid transfer after receiving the ball happen? How did this guy know that Iguodala would definitely go back to catch the ball. You know, when An Jie started to pass the ball, the place was originally empty! If Iguodala is slower, this assist may turn into a turnover!
In James’ surprised eyes, Anjie and Iguodala gave a close high-five. Afterwards, Anjie made an “ok” gesture to Ricard on the bench.
The tactics were executed very successfully, and this is just the tip of the iceberg in closed training.
The trailblazers are vulnerable to a blow? I’m afraid this is not the case.
James picked up the basketball on the ground and looked at the smiling No. 00 center. To defeat the Blazers and win the championship, the Cavaliers and James must work harder…
