Super Role Player - v4 Chapter 54

In the sixth minute of the second quarter, Anxi played again.

The Rockets also changed players. Corey Brewer started to guard Anxi. With Josh Smith on the inside, the Rockets still maintained a tight defense against Anxi. On the offensive end, James Harden played again. The goal is to maintain the current lead before halftime.

But Anxi played, he obviously won’t give the Rockets a chance to lead at halftime.

From the very beginning of the game, Anxi broke out.

After An Xi re-entered the field, he played without the ball, went around from the bottom line, bypassed the screen of Norrence Knoll, stepped up to throw off Corey Brewer, and then outside the 45° three-point line on the left, An Xi encountered Josh Smith’s defense.

But he didn’t have any hesitation. He drew a three-pointer directly from the outside, and shot very fast, almost as soon as he raised his hand, the ball flew out.

Josh Smith didn’t have time to react. When he turned to look at the basket, the basketball just dropped and plunged into the basket with great precision!

Huh!

Goal in!

Three points!

As soon as Anxi played, he scored a three-pointer and narrowed the difference to 6 points.

Immediately after the Rockets attacked, Anxi faced Corey Brewer, and James Harden, who was also a new player, handed over to Jack Lauder to defend. Anxi continued to complete the defensive task of supplementing defense and assisting defense.

James Harden played Jack Lauder with the ball. After a change of direction, Harden suddenly stopped his jumper, but because he rested for a few minutes, he didn’t feel hot and missed the jumper.

Channing Frye received the rebound from the basket, and then handed the basketball to Anxi.

After receiving the basketball, Anxi took a look at the Rockets’ retreat speed, and quickly accelerated and rushed to the front court. A scoring shot from the inside made a layup and hit the Rockets by surprise.

The point difference was reduced to 4 points.

The 4 points difference is nothing, as long as the next two rounds are played well, the 76ers have the opportunity to return the two teams to the same starting line.

This made Kevin McHale a little helpless. A minute ago, the Rockets were still leading by 9 points. As a result, the score difference was immediately reduced to 4 points after Anxi played a minute, and it was still being reduced.

Kevin McHale naturally couldn’t bear it. He felt that Corey Brewer was not doing well enough on Anxi’s defense, so he called a timeout and made adjustments.

Trevor Ariza replaced Corey Brewer, and the player defending Anxi became Ariza again.

In this way, the Rockets started a battle on the defensive end, and Anxi’s response was simple-to continue singles.

On the court, the Rockets missed the offense again. Basketball came into Anxi’s hands again. Anxi took the ball directly from the backcourt to the frontcourt. Trevor Ariza, who had just played, stood outside the three-point line and saw Anxi dribble the ball. After halftime, it immediately seemed to be posted.

At this moment, Anxi suddenly changed direction and passed Trevor Ariza directly.

Ariza couldn’t react at all. He stretched out his hand to hold Anxi, who was speeding up the breakthrough, but pulled air.

As a result, An Xi rushed into the post and faced up against Josh Smith alone, a defensive throw, huh! Two more points.

With only the last 2 points left, Kevin McHale seemed to be paying too much attention to the limits of Anxi on the defensive end, but he completely ignored it on the offensive end.

But in fact, the 76ers’ continuous pursuit of points depends on the successful defense of the defensive end. If the Rockets can score a few goals on the offensive end, the result will be completely different.

Therefore, after James Harden got the ball in the backcourt, Kevin McHale stood on the sidelines and made a gesture, asking the team to strengthen the offense.

Harden’s offensive talent is still very strong. As soon as Kevin McHale’s adjustment came out, he then played singles with the ball and committed a foul in the frontcourt.

Then, standing on the free throw line and making two free throws, the Rockets finally scored.

In the 76ers’ offense, Anxi played singles with the ball and started a strong attack.

A backed singles, turned around and shook Trevor Ariza, jumped directly on the spot, hit two points, the 76ers under the leadership of Anxi clenched the point difference.

Not to be outdone by the Rockets, James Harden entered individual mode, another European step on the offensive end, rushed inside and made a layup.

Jack Lauder was quite helpless. He could defend this ball if he was tougher, but he didn’t dare to be tough because James Harden was obviously in a posture of either you foul or I scored. The league is still used to him. This style of play, at critical moments, James Harden’s move works very well.

Therefore, now, James Harden has also used this trick continuously, and Jack Lauder, who has already fouled three times, naturally did not dare to stretch out his hand easily.

Anxi didn’t care and patted Jack Lauder on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.

Subsequently, Anxi continued to attack on the offensive end.

The Rockets responded quickly with double teams, but facing the double double team of Josh Smith and Trevor Ariza, Anxi turned over to make a jumper, against the two defenders, and shot the basketball.

Huh!

The crisp sound of wiping the net sounded again, Anxi scored another 2 points, and the score difference was still 2 points.

Back to the defensive end, the Rockets are still James Harden offensive, still the old European step to hit the rim, Jack Lauder is still very stubborn, not daring to reach out, can only watch Harden put the basketball into the basket. basket.

In the 76ers’ offense, Anxi continued to score in the same way, still a strong attack, singled out Ariza from outside the three-point line, pulled out a three-pointer, and hit again!

The goal was a three-pointer. After Anxi scored, he gave James Harden a provocative look.

An Xi’s meaning is obvious. Either Harden is subdued, or Harden gives up the idea of ​​fouling and concentrates on returning Anxi a three-pointer.

But back to the offensive end of the Rockets, James Harden seemed to be subdued, after holding the ball from the outside, a single block, once again rushed into the inside with a European step.

Everyone thought that James Harden’s suit was weak, but what no one expected was that James Harden rushed into the post and jumped forward in an extremely weird posture. Jack Lauder didn’t have time to react and ran into it.

After the mid-air impact, the referee blew the whistle, and James Harden aimed at the hoop and threw the basketball just one second before landing.

Huh!

Goal in! Add penalties!

But the next second, Jack Lauder rushed out.

“I fouled this ball?” Obviously, Jack Lauder thought it was James Harden’s offensive foul.

In fact, it is indeed the case. James Harden’s foul looks more like he hit Jack Lauder himself, so the correct penalty should be an offensive foul. Even the sideline commentator said: ” This ball should be an offensive foul, James Harden obviously has a forward lean, the range is still very large, it is obviously James Harden’s own problem.”

But the referee didn’t think so, he resolutely penalized Jack Lauder for the foul.

This made Jack Lauder very angry. He was a little frustrated on his defense in this game. As a result, this obvious offensive foul was blown into his defensive foul. How could this not let him blow up.

After the referee pointed to himself resolutely, Jack Lauder couldn’t help it, and went directly in front of the referee.

Anxi did not hold back. In the end, Jack Lauder took another technical foul. He had already fouled five times, including technical fouls. Brett Brown reluctantly took Jack Lauder off the court and replaced him with Troy Daniels. .

After the substitution, James Harden began to execute the free throw, a technical foul free throw, hit.

Then, the three players stood on both sides of the free throw line, and the normal foul penalty was also hit.

James Harden made two free throws, but the point difference widened to 5 points.

Jack Lauder left the field and the 76ers replaced Troy Daniels, which meant that Anxi had to go to the third position, and everyone defending James Harden had to be handed over to Anxi.

Many people have become accustomed to the issue of James Harden’s whistle. Even Anxi is used to it. After all, he likes to watch news and visit forums. News forums talk about James Harden’s body hair whistle, Anxi almost every day. I already knew this.

Therefore, after another strong attack, the difference between the two teams became 3 points, and Anxi faced James Harden on the defensive end.

At this point, there was not much time left in the second quarter, and James Harden’s offense was basically his last offense in the second quarter.

In the face of Harden’s offense, Anxi showed that he was smarter than ordinary people. Harden made a European breakthrough, held the ball with both hands, and rushed into the penalty area with a swing. At this time, as long as Anxi stretched out his hand, it would definitely be a foul.

But if Anxi does not reach out, Harden can complete an easy layup.

Therefore, this is a dilemma.

In the next second, Anxi’s defense surprised everyone.

An Xi didn’t stretch out his hand. Everyone thought Harden was going to score a goal. But when Harden jumped for a layup, he hit An Xi in the air with his negative hand behind him. Then, the layup went wide. Up.

The crowd was in an uproar. Many people were very beautiful to see how An Xi guarded Harden’s layup. Even the referee was stunned, wondering if An Xi had committed a foul.

But in fact, Anxi just held his hands and collided with strength in the air, which interfered with Harden’s layup. There was no foul. This is a clean defense that can no longer be clean!

James Harden missed a layup~www.mtlnovel.com~Norrens Knoll grabbed the rebound, the 76ers fast break, Anxi passed the ball to Troy Daniels, Troy Daniels made a shot in the last few seconds of the second quarter Remember to chase one-third of your body, huh!

The timer buzzer at the end of the halftime sounded and the second quarter ended!

The two teams reached a tie. Anxi played half of the time in the second quarter, scored 16 more points, scored 29 points in the half, and went to a high score.

The two teams were tied in the half, that is to say, judging from the first half of the game, the two teams were evenly matched.

Anxi scored 29 points in the first half, James Harden slightly lost, but also scored a 20 points, plus 6 assists.

In contrast to the core players, James Harden did not lose too much.

But in fact, the Rockets were able to hold the 76ers thanks to the efforts of Dwight Howard. In the first half of the second quarter, it was Dwight Howard who was on the court and led the team with two waves of offensive climax. difference.
