The Way of the Center - Chapter 815

Just the day after Anjie and his Trail Blazers were promoted, another first round matchup in the Western Conference playoffs was about to produce results.

At this moment in the Chesapeake Energy Arena, all the fans’ hearts are in their throats. Because of their opponent, the Minnesota Timberwolves, they have caused a lot of trouble for the Thunder.

This season, the Timberwolves, with Towns, Wiggins, and Jimmy Butler, can be said to have shined in the West.

Downs and Wiggins have matured, and Jimmy Butler has also played the role of his big brother.

These three highly impactful guys joined forces to finally make the Minnesota Timberwolves enter the playoffs for the first time after 2004!

For a team like the Timberwolves that has only played eight postseason games since its establishment, it would be grateful for them to get out of the siege. However, these guys don’t seem to be satisfied with the first round. They also want to ask for more!

“Karl Anthony Towns’ footsteps are very beautiful. He tricked Adams into a direct layup! A good ball, Towns scored easily in the interior, and the Timberwolves bit the score again!” Reggie Miller couldn’t help but couldn’t help it. Applause for Downs. Since Anjie appeared, American big men have become more and more versatile.

Whether it’s Towns or Jalil Okafor, whether it’s Anthony Davis or his inside partner Cousins. The appearance of Anjie has set a good benchmark for American big men.

Inside players, no longer need to be strong as before, they only need to be athletic. Howard’s type of center has almost been eliminated by the league.

Now that a big man wants to survive in the NBA, he must become almighty like An Jie and others.

You see, isn’t even Brook Lopez now starting to shoot three-pointers from beyond the three-point line? He is not afraid to fight against others at the basket, but a three-pointer can add an extra offensive tool to his arsenal.

All big men are trying to make themselves more versatile, and the Thunder, who is not deep enough in the inside line, have suffered from Downs.

Westbrook doesn’t care about that much, he only knows that the team has lost points, and he needs to quickly get the points back!

Westbrook’s explosive impact caused the Timberwolves’ defense to be torn to pieces in an instant. Westbrook drove straight in and scored again with a tough layup.

Anthony and Westbrook after scoring a light high-five, he did not blame Westbrook for not passing the ball, as long as the team can win, Anthony is willing to make any compromise, even if it is to give up the ball!

“It’s horrible. Westbrook is so excited for today’s game. If he had been in this state in the previous games, the Timberwolves might have been swept out of the game long ago!”

The Timberwolves made a comeback, and Jimmy Butler just got the basketball, and Westbrook suddenly came out and stabbed him away.

Because he rushed too fast, Westbrook staggered under his feet and fell to the ground.

Although he has fallen, Westbrook has not forgotten to control the basketball. Not afraid of any pain, the guy suddenly stretched out his arm, hugged the basketball on the wooden floor, and pressed it firmly under his body.

The Timberwolves immediately rushed to Westbrook, and some even lay directly on Westbrook.

Westbrook withstood the tremendous pressure. After seeing Anthony running towards the frontcourt, Westbrook suddenly threw the ball forward.

The crowd reflexively looked towards the direction of the basketball flight, and in order to fight for the ball with Westbrook, the Timberwolves now had four people around him.

This also means that Anthony is facing a basket with only one defender!

This situation is just a piece of cake for Anthony! In the face of Moreau, who was guarding the basket alone, Anthony directly used a throw to end everything.

Chesapeake Energy Arena fans cheered, not only for the scoring George, but also for Westbrook who just saved the ball bravely.

For some reason, Westbrook is extremely excited today. Although the Thunder have won the match point with a total score of 3-1 at this time. But Westbrook’s excitement was still wrong.

After the game, the Timberwolves were still torn apart by the impactful Westbrook. Downs, Wiggins and Jimmy finally stopped in the first round of the playoffs under the joint efforts of Westbrook and Anthony.

For the Timberwolves, this season they are undoubtedly successful. After 14 years, he reached the playoffs again. This result is enough to satisfy Minnesota fans and owners.

But for the winner of the Thunder, the victory over the Timberwolves is just a prelude to the playoffs.

The reason Westbrook suddenly became so excited in this game was not because the Thunder got the match point. It’s because he learned that Anjie and the Portland Trail Blazers are already waiting for themselves on the stage of the Western Conference semifinals in advance!

The collision of Morris, Ann, and two former teammates in the playoffs is something Westbrook can’t wait for.

Although Morris was lost, but now Westbrook also has a star like Anthony to help out. The goal of the Thunder is simple, to re-enter the finals and win the championship!

During the game, Westbrook was thinking about the scene of himself and An Jie and the others. Whenever I think of these, Westbrook wishes to meet them sooner. And the more you think about it, the more Westbrook hopes that the game will end soon.

Thus, the unlucky Timberwolves were defeated by the sudden outbreak of Westbrook.

The game had just ended, Westbrook celebrated ceremoniously, walked into the player aisle alone, rushed into the home team locker room of the Chesapeake Energy Arena.

He immediately opened his own cabinet, pulled out his mobile phone, and dialed An Jie’s number.

“Congratulations! Russell!” As soon as he answered the phone, An Jie’s voice came out of the receiver.

It seems that this guy just watched the live broadcast of the game.

“Tell Morris that kid, don’t worry about me and the Thunder. You see, aren’t we all right?” Westbrook was very happy. After many years, he finally had a comparison with his former good brothers. Opportunity to compete!

“You can take a good rest in these two days, buddy, when you come to Portland, the game won’t be so easy.” An Jie was happy for Westbrook’s promotion from the bottom of his heart, but he also won’t forget~www.mtlnovel .com~In the playoffs, there are no friends, only enemies!

“Relax, in Portland, I will definitely show my best form. You won’t be disappointed, you will get a wonderful Western Conference semifinals!” Westbrook looked at Anthony’s cabinet. That location once belonged to An Jie. Now, I have to take this new friend to defeat my former comrade-in-arms!

“When I win the game, I will treat you to dinner.”

“Invite me to dinner, want to win? No!”

“Smelly boy, your tone is not small!”

“You know Ann, I like challenges the most. Wait in Portland, Oklahoma City Thunder is here!”

An Jie hung up the phone with a smile, and the Thunder were indeed a strong opponent. But I don’t know why, but An Jie is very happy.

And Westbrook once again met in the playoffs. At this moment, Anjie has been waiting for several years.

Come on Russell, let our battle ignite the whole alliance!
