The Way of the Center

Chapter 35: First contact

"The opponent's appearance is so majestic, has the organizer figured out which team is the favorite to win?" Robin Lopez was quite dissatisfied in his heart as he endured the devastation of the air defense siren.

"Don't take Robin lightly, the media are farting! I've watched too many game videos of the Cyclones in the past few days. They are definitely not idle people." As the older brother Brook knows his younger brother's character, the game is about to start, he must Remind yourself of your complacent brother.

"Kevin Love is also restricted by us. Could that Chinese be better than Love?" Robin Lopez asked his brother disdainfully.

Brook Lopez shook his head lightly, he would inevitably wipe Robin's ass in this game.

After all the procedures were completed, Anjie and Brook Lopez finally stood in the middle circle. Brook stared at the big tall man in front of him seriously. What the experts and commentators said was ****, and Brook knew how much Anjie weighed.

After the referee blew the whistle, the ball was thrown out. Anjie and Brook jumped almost at the same time, but Angelo, who had the advantage of height, took the ball a little ahead of Brook and patted the ball into the hands of his own players. The Iowa State University Cyclones took the lead!

Sitting on the bench, Divac put away his usual unscrupulous posture. He stared at Anjie from the first second of the game. This game is a new starting point for An Jie, I hope this kid can seize the opportunity to become a blockbuster.

After Mike Taylor got the ball, he took the ball across the half court calmly. The opponent's point guard Kelly Fortes was very afraid of Taylor's emergency stop jump shot after breaking through, so he didn't stick it too tightly to prevent being caught by Taylor. breakthrough.

Unlike Taylor, who was unhurried, An Jie quickly got to his position near the three-second zone. Brook Lopez immediately supported An Jie's waist, and then pushed An Jie outward.

"Damn it!" An Jie felt a huge push from behind, and his feet on the floor were no longer very stable.

But Taylor didn't see An Jie's predicament, he still hung the ball to An Jie who was not stable. An Jie barely caught the ball, but was pushed out by Brook Lopez behind him.

Angie regained his footing and started dribbling. Hit back! As soon as the game started, Anjie and Brook had a head-to-head confrontation!

Fans from both sides stood up excitedly from their seats. Unexpectedly, the two big men started a duel from the first second. what are you waiting for? That's the point of this game.

An Jie leaned back twice, but Brook Lopez remained motionless! In terms of strength, Brook is no worse than Anjie, and Brook's weight of 125 kg is really put there. There was no way, Anjie had to use shooting to solve the problem.

An Jie turned around flexibly so that he faced the basket, then he took a step back, raised the basketball and prepared to shoot. Anjie has shot countless times at this position, whether on the training ground or in official games, and it can be said that he is a sure-fire shooting point.

But how could Brook Lopez's defense be disintegrated so easily, he stuck to An Jie every step of the way, and An Jie's step back did not succeed in widening the distance between him and Brook.

In the regular season, no center has ever given Anjie such a sense of oppression. Brook also jumped high after Anjie took off. Although he didn't cover the ball, he blocked Anjie's shot route. Anjie's field of vision is now completely blocked by Brook, so he can only make a shot based on his feeling.

"Bang!" The basketball thrown by An Jie missed the target and hit the rim. Robin Lopez knew his brother's super defensive ability, and he was already stuck in the position waiting for rebounds. Asakin was stuck behind Robin Lopez and couldn't even jump up. He could only watch Robin grab the rebound.

The Stanford Crimson isn't advancing fast enough,

You must know that they play with double centers as the core. Like the Cyclone team, the Crimson team slowly started to organize the offense after the center was in position.

After entering the penalty area, Brook Lopez leaned against Anjie with his back and reached out to Kelly Fortes for the ball.

"The second round is coming so soon?" After Brook successfully defended Anjie, the fans wanted to see how Anjie would respond on the defensive end.

Brook pushed back hard, and the offensive methods of both sides were exactly the same. The difference is that An Jie, who was not well prepared, failed to withstand Brook's impact. With just two pushes, Brook broke away from Anjie and won room for himself to turn around. Brook directly used his footsteps to wipe past Anjie, turned towards the bottom line and picked the basket successfully.

Strong body, plenty of height, quick feet, soft touch. Brook Lopez, like Anjie, is a center with comprehensive skills. After the first round of the contest between the two sides, An Jie was defeated on both offense and defense.

Asakin secretly swallowed a few times, this guy named Brook Lopez is too powerful. Asakin may be the player who knows Anjie's level best. The two have played against each other countless times in the training ground. Asakin couldn't believe that there was still someone in this alliance who could complete the attack so calmly in front of An Jie.

"Haha, let me say that my brother is too nervous. This skinny man is not worth mentioning at all." Seeing his brother score on An Jie's head so easily, Robin Lopez was even more sure of An Jie. It's nothing to be afraid of, it's just hyped up by the media.

But Brook, who completed the attack, did not relax his vigilance against An Jie at all. In the 40 minutes of the game, a successful attack did not mean anything at all. Come on Chinese, I am already ready to fight you to the end.

"Anjie! You switch positions with Asakin! You go to fight Robin Lopez, don't fight Brooke at the beginning!" Rickard reminded loudly off the court, Brook, who is now full of energy, is not An opponent who can be defeated casually. It is a matter of time to defeat him, but it is not yet time.

An Jie nodded, and headed towards the opponent's restricted area again.

When An Jie took the ball again, Robin Lopez had indescribable expectations in his heart, and this Chinese who knew nothing about the sky and the earth actually took the initiative to find him. Do you think that if you avoid your brother, you will be easy to bully? "I will make you regret choosing to attack me at this point, I promise!"

"Damn it! It must have been deliberately arranged by the opponent's coach!" Brook Lopez cursed in his heart. It wasn't that he didn't trust his brother, but that he knew that his brother's character might blind him.

Robin Lopez is indeed an excellent center forward, but he is still not at the same level as his brother.

An Jie did not choose to compete with the opponent again. After receiving the ball, he turned around with Robin as the axis and rushed towards the basket. Robin used his body that he thought was strong enough to push against An Jie, but found that this thin Chinese man pushed himself away abruptly!

"What!?" An Jie's failure in the confrontation with Brook made Robin mistakenly think that An Jie was a center forward with insufficient strength, but now he was successfully broken through by the Chinese.

"I'm the shot-blocking leader of the Pacific Ten League!" Robin Lopez was not reconciled. Seeing that An Jie was about to make a layup, he immediately jumped up, ready to make up for his mistakes with a block.

Robin Lopez did capture the basketball, but he also captured Angie's right hand holding the ball. An Jie held the basketball tightly in the air, trying not to let the ball be shot from his hands. In the end, it was An Jie who took control of the basketball. With a flick of his fingers, he put the ball into the basket. At the same time, the referee below also quickly blew his whistle, indicating that Robin Lopez was fouled by a thug.

"An Jie got a chance to hit a three-pointer! Robin Lopez underestimated his opponent too much, and he paid the price for his arrogance!" Paul Philips looked elated.

Robin Lopez raised his right hand to signal to his teammates that it was his mistake. There was nothing to argue about the ball, because he underestimated the enemy.

"You know now, he is not an idler, do you think it was easy for me to win just now? It's okay, then behave well." Brook came over and patted his younger brother's head, so that the boy would suffer a little bit, so as not to He played with the mentality of underestimating the enemy throughout the game.

Anjie's free throws were as stable as ever. It just started, and the excitement of the game did not disappoint the fans.

The tit-for-tat confrontation between the two top centers in the league is destined to become an endless decisive battle.

"Wait, Brook, it's your turn soon." Rickard silently looked at Brook Lopez running on the court. Anjie was more than just a persimmon.
