The Golden Age of Basketball

() "At the end of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers led the Bulls by 30 points 25:2. In the last 5 minutes, Gan scored 2 points in a row, including a 1 plus 2. This season, Gan made many shots in the game. 1 plus [-] goal, does this show his difference." NBC commentator Hamilton asked.

"Yes, according to my observation and analysis of the previous Blazers games, Gan's strength is actually beyond the imagination of many people. Gan did not participate in the rookie camp physical test, so no one knows what level his bench press has reached. .I reckon this number will be pretty amazing; on the other hand, his core strength in the waist and abdomen is very good, and his control in the air is quite strong; finally, his touch is excellent, very soft, and some balls end up stumbling in. Basket." Guest commentator Crouch replied.

"Then what shortcomings do you think he has? Have they been exposed in the current game?"

"Judging from the current game, this is a very talented center with no obvious flaws. His main problem at present is his lack of experience. In the first quarter of the game, we can see that he faced Cole Jin, an experienced center, seemed a little uncomfortable and made several mistakes; in addition, his offensive skills were not comprehensive enough, his left hand seemed to need to be improved, and he did not show the ability to jump shot; defensively In other words, the congenital defect in height will make him suffer when facing players with strong impact."

In recent years, nbc TV has begun to invite some professional basketball professionals to serve as commentators. Their analysis is often more professional and detailed than media commentators. This also allows TV commentary to get rid of the mode of radio commentary and start a new talk mode.

"So what about Jordan, how about Jordan? After he left the field, the Bulls didn't score." Hamilton continued to play the ignorant little white role.

"Jordan looked very different in the first quarter. His offensive ability didn't seem to be particularly strong. He made a few good passes and allowed his teammates to score; in fact, Jordan is a very good team player. His breakthrough is very good. Lethality, and Jordan's pass magnified this lethality several times, and he revitalized the Bulls' offense by himself."

"Okay, the second quarter will start soon. Let's take a look at the players on both sides. Jordan is back on the court. The Bulls without Jordan are really lackluster in offense. On the Blazers side, Gan is already sitting on the court. On the bench, he didn't rest in the first quarter, now it's time for him to sit off the court. Ramsey put Kenny Carr on the bench."

The Blazers lineup at this time is center Mitchell Sampson, power forward Kenny Carr, small forward Drexler, shooting guard Jim Paxson, and point guard Colter.

This is a more commonly used second team by Ramsey. Drexler is used as a substitute. After the opponent's main player is off the field, he uses his personal ability to continue the firepower. It is best to be able to pause the opponent.

However, Drexler doesn't like to be a substitute, nor does he like to play the small forward position. He has always defined himself as a comprehensive guard who can control the game, not a forward who can only charge forward.

When he saw Jordan mobilize the entire Bulls offense on the court, scoring goals and assisting teammates, Drexler kept thinking, "I can do this too."

So as soon as he came on the court, Drexler asked for the ball from Colter and began to dribble across half court. He wanted to control the team's offense.

In some ways, Drexler is similar to Jordan, but not at all.

Both are 6-foot-6 guards who can run and jump well, both have talent beyond the average player, and both have extraordinary confidence in themselves.

However, Jordan is a new-age guard who combines all the characteristics of a traditional guard. He can do everything a traditional guard can do, such as cs, apex jumpers, air cuts to the basket, and emergency stop jumpers.

In addition, he has the ability to surpass traditional defenders in breakthroughs, counterattacks, passing, and low-post offense.

Drexler is different. He doesn't like the traditional guard and doesn't want to do it. This is an important reason why Ramsey doesn't like him.

He has his own style, he has his own style of play, he likes to charge with his head down, he likes to rebound like a power forward, he likes to ask for the ball in the low post, he likes to play single-roll, he wants to play the way he likes way to win the game.

So although he also listened to Ramsey's advice to improve his shooting, he just didn't want to correct his posture, put the ball on his chest, and straighten his legs.

Now, he will use his own way to compete with Jordan, because he knows that the team gave up Jordan because of him, and he wants to prove that the team is right to do so.

"Drexler was dribbling outside, Jordan was guarding him, was it a one-on-one? Drexler started the drive, he was very fast, from the front... nice pass, Sampson Catch and dunk!" Drexler was so quick that Hamilton didn't have time to describe his action.

Drexler broke through directly from the front. This was a simple and rough attack. Jordan failed to block Drexler's footsteps because Carl stepped forward and blocked Jordan.

The Bulls' backup center Jones stepped forward to defend and naturally missed Sampson. The Bulls' rotation was not timely, but Drexler's pass was timely, and Sampson scored the ball with a two-handed dunk.

"Beautiful pass!" Gan Guoyang stood on the sidelines and applauded Drexler loudly, his energy seemed to never run out.

But how could Jordan show weakness? He also passed the ball from the point guard and dribbled for half court.

On the left side, far from the three-point line, Jordan prepares to accelerate like a lion waiting for his moment.

Some people have described Jordan's breakthrough in the early days, that is, you know where he is going, but you just can't stop him.

That's how Paxson was. After the start of the second quarter, he was still the main defense against Jordan, even though he was sieved by Jordan in the first quarter.

This time, he had already seen that Jordan was going to walk from the front again, but when Jordan started to rush towards him, he still couldn't keep up with Jordan's footsteps.

"Jordan rushed in from the middle, and a fake move changed to...a dunk! A direct dunk, oh my god." Hamilton, whose mouth was like a machine gun, still couldn't keep up with Jordan's movements.

Jordan made two false moves in front of Paxson, tricked Paxson with his body shaking, and then cut from the edge of the left three-second zone. No one stepped forward to stop him, and no one could stop him because he was too fast. Yes, and his passing was deadly.

Sampson and Carr could only watch as Jordan finished the offense with an easy dunk.

"He was like a bolt of lightning, he turned a corner in front of Paxson, and then the Blazers' basket was split open."

"This guy is so fucking fast." Gan Guoyang, who was sitting on the bench, couldn't help shaking his head.

"He has the same shoes as you passed, why are you not so fast?" Vandeweghe said on the side.

Gan Guoyang is wearing Nike's af1 sneakers, which are the same as those on Jordan's feet. Their exclusive sneakers are still being designed and are expected to be launched in 85.

"I'm also fast, I mean at my height, I can let anyone eat my ass." Gan Guoyang has always been so brazen, although he is really fast, especially his turning speed.

"I think our fastest should be Clyde!"

Before Vandeweghe finished speaking, Drexler had already sprinted from the backcourt to the frontcourt with the ball. He lowered his head and plunged into the Bulls' basket like a football player.

But the Bulls' players have returned to defense, and three players came to the penalty area.

Drexler broke into the paint from the baseline on the right. Instead of forcing a layup, he passed the ball to Paxson who was plugging in on the right.

Paxson is a white player without great breakthrough ability, but he is very accurate.

A white outside player, if he can't even shoot accurately, then he is basically useless. You can't expect him to tear the opponent's defense.

Paxson received the ball on the left baseline, and he had a lot of space in front of him, but he didn't shoot.

Because Jordan chased him up and flew into the air trying to cover him up.

Paxson made a feint and Jordan flew out of the baseline.

Paxson adjusted the dribble, took the shot from 18 feet, and the ball went in.

This is Paxson's way of basketball, using what he is good at against what his opponent is not good at.

He can't guard Jordan, but Jordan can't easily stop him from scoring.

"Another beautiful assist. Drexler showed his excellent vision and very good passing ability for two consecutive balls. In this regard, he is on par with Jordan."

Indeed, in terms of passing alone, Drexler is no worse than Jordan.

Jordan also seems to want to prove that his passing is equally good.

He passed the ball to point guard Matthaus, who then immediately passed the ball back to Jordan who ran to the right three-point line.

Jordan made a breakthrough from the middle again. He broke through directly after receiving the ball. He passed the ball to Mateus in order to adjust his pace, so that Paxson couldn't react even more and was passed by another step.

But this time, the Blazers' defense quickly shrank, and Drexler on the left reacted quickly and immediately stepped forward to block.

Sampson inside did not leave the three-second zone this time, but waited for Jordan to come inside.

But Kenny Carr made a mistake. After Drexler defended Jordan, Walridge missed it. Instead of defending Walridge, Karl watched Jordan rush in, ready To make up defense or grab rebounds.

Wallridge took the opportunity to roll and cut from the left side and slipped to the basket. Jordan was already flying in the air for a jumper.

Jordan showed his super ability to stay in the air and made a pause in the air. He saw Walridge under the basket and passed the ball in the air.

Wallridge was ready to dunk directly after receiving the ball, but Sampson turned around and pressed Wallridge down. "

"Beep!" The referee whistled and Sampson fouled.

"Gan, get ready to play, pay attention to your fouls, don't do it casually." Ramsey was going to replace Sampson with Gan Guoyang, and at the same time told him not to foul easily.

Gan Guoyang immediately stood up from the bench, took off his coat, and pointed to Sampson on the court.

On the other side, the Bulls also made a substitution. They replaced center Kerzin, and it seemed that they wanted to use it to deal with Gan Guoyang.

"Does your coach still let you play to warm us up?" Gan Guoyang looked at Korzin who was standing next to him, and started nagging again.

Although Kerzin played oily, his mouth was very clean. If he didn't say anything, Gan Guoyang naturally couldn't take advantage of it.

Wallridge made one of two free throws, and the Blazers pulled the score gap to 6 points.

"Slow down, Clyde, slow down!" Ramsey couldn't help shouting as he watched Drexler rushing forward with the ball on the sidelines.

"This guy just doesn't know how to control the rhythm." Ramsey shook his head, wondering when Drexler would mature.

Although the Blazers are good at playing quick counterattacks, it is clear that this is not the time for quick counterattacks. The Blazers are leading the score, not too much, not too little, because they have scored a few steadily to consolidate their advantage.

And Drexler has already rushed to the frontcourt with the ball.

Drexler didn't drive because Jordan was already on him, turned back, and tried to press all the way in from the left side.

"Drexler hit Jordan with his back on the left side, squeezing in step by step, but the Bulls' double-team has come up! Jordan knocked the ball out of Drexler's hands, and Jordan steals the ball! The Bulls started quickly attack!"

Drexler was obviously in a hurry, his turning position was not good, it was too outside, and the opponent's flanking attack came too easily.

As a result, under the pincer attack, no teammates were found, and the ball was also knocked down by Jordan.

"Jordan passed the ball to Matthaus, the Bulls' fast break, Matthaus passed the ball to Green! Green took off and dunked! Oh! Got blocked by Gan! Blocked, the ball was directly collected by Gan In my arms!"

The Bulls fans at the scene swallowed the prepared cheers abruptly and turned them into exclamations.

Drexler ran too fast, Gan Guoyang saw his ball was broken, and immediately ran back to the basket to defend.

There is only Gan Guoyang at the basket, and the Bulls are fast-breaking on the fourth line. Green and Wallridge go hand in hand, and Jordan and Matthaus come from behind.

Matthaus passed the ball to Green on the right. Green looked at Gan Guoyang under the basket and wanted to give him a head-on dunk.

But like many players who have suffered from Gan Guoyang, he ignores Gan Guoyang's strength and wingspan because of Gan Guoyang's skin tone and body shape.

Gan Guoyang was like sitting on an iron tower, withstood Green's impact, and at the same time pressed his left hand on Green's ball.

In the power confrontation in the air, Green was completely defeated and was knocked to the ground by Gan Guoyang, and the ball in his hand was directly taken away by Gan Guoyang.

"A wonderful block! Poor Sidney Green, the referee didn't call a foul."

At that time, the scale of the whistle was relatively large, and Gan Guoyang didn't have a thug, but just pressed it on the ball, so it was a good shot.

"If it were me, I would have dunked the ball on your head." Gan Guoyang passed the ball to Colter, but Jordan ran to him and said.

Gan Guoyang looked at Jordan, the face he was very familiar with, the idol of his future generations, the omnipotent Jordan.

He knew that Jordan could dunk on anyone if he wanted to.

But now Gan Guoyang is no longer that fan Gan Guoyang, he is a rookie in the same class as Jordan, and he is an NBA player who wants to compete with Jordan.
