The Golden Age of Basketball

"There are still 3 minutes before the end of the game. The audience began to leave the field one after another. The Blazers led the Bulls by 115 points at 100:15. Unless a miracle happens, the Bulls don't have many chances in this game. Jordan is still there Make the last effort... a mid-range jumper hit! This is his 29th point in the game, which has surpassed his season average of 28 points, which means that no one can shake his position on the scoring list. If he If he gets another point, it will be his fifth game with more than 30 points in a single game since the last few games."

"However, the other players of the Bulls played too mediocrely. They failed to give Jordan enough support in the crucial third quarter, and when chasing points in the fourth quarter, the Bulls were suppressed by Vandeweghe and Gan Guoyang."

"That's right, the return of Vandeweghe gave the Blazers a great buffer, and Ramsey was more comfortable in deploying troops... Let's look at this ball. After Gan received the ball in the low post, he turned over and hooked, and the ball scored! The score gap returned to 15 points again, this goal basically announced the death of the Bulls, the Bulls called a timeout, it seems that they are going to replace the substitute players to play garbage time."

"The Trail Blazers are even better. They completely suppressed the Bulls in rebounds today, 59 vs. 38, with 21 more rebounds. Gan grabbed 17 rebounds by himself. He also further consolidated his own rebounds. number one position.”

"Yes, the main players of both sides have left the field. The Blazers won a victory on the road. This is the first game of their three-game road trip in the East. They started a good start."

…………

The final score was fixed at 121:108, and the Blazers overturned the Bulls to the ground without bloodshed.

Gan Guoyang's performance of 20 points and 17 rebounds in the game not only brought his scoring average to 18 points per game, but also allowed him to average 16 rebounds per game, which was 2 points away from the second place Moses Malone .

"Why do you grab so many rebounds every game? You have to know that this is only your first season. You have to face many more experienced and stronger inside players. How do you grab them? The ball?" After the game, Gan Guoyang was interviewed by the reporter on the sidelines again, and it was the beautiful reporter from last time. He interviewed Gan Guoyang before the game between the Trail Blazers and the Lakers, but Gan Guoyang choked him up. [

"First of all, I don't think there are many big players who are stronger than me. I have absolute confidence in myself in terms of strength. I can squeeze anyone in the three-second zone; secondly, I don't think rebounding needs to be particularly rich. experience, which is different from passing the ball to organize an offense, and the innate sense of smell required for rebounding is like a tiger finding food, it is innate." Gan Guoyang looked like a Steal mines.

"What do you think of Jordan? He is a rookie this year just like you. You occupy the rebounding list, but he is now the leading scorer. You both signed with the same sneaker company." The professional sensitivity of the female reporter is still quite high of.

"He is a very great player, this is not a compliment, I dare say, he has the ability to become the greatest star in this league, the entire nb history, the greatest, no one, and I am honored to compete with him Of course, our sneakers are very handsome, but most people can’t understand them.” Gan Guoyang still didn’t forget to advertise his sneakers.

"Okay, thank you for accepting the interview with Mr. Gan..."

…………

After the interview, Gan Guoyang was finally able to go back to the locker room to rest and adjust. In fact, he was physically and mentally tired during this period.

Although Gan Guoyang's performance on the court has become more and more mature since he played against the 76ers in the first game of the new year, he began to better integrate into the team and always made the right choices on the court.

As a result, Ramsey also began to pay more and more attention to Gan Guoyang, and Gan Guoyang's playing time also increased steadily, but his data did not increase much, and remained stable at the level of 1515.

The state of the Blazers' entire team also reached its peak after the lore beat the Lakers. All the players are full of ambition and are ready to use a wave of winning streak to stabilize the No. [-] position in the Western Conference and even hit No. [-] in the league.

But then under the influence of their injuries, the team still won or lost, one game was good and the other was bad. This made Gan Guoyang feel sadder than consecutive losses.

His performance is still stable, but he can't fill the hole left by Vandeweghe's absence, because he may not get the ball in the fourth quarter. The attack on the top became more difficult.

At the beginning of the season, many teams didn't know Gan Guoyang as a rookie, especially Gan Guoyang was a yellow man, so they inevitably underestimated him.

Therefore, Gan Guoyang was able to play many shockingly high-scoring games. At that time, as long as he wanted to shoot and could shoot, high scores were inevitable.

But now, other teams in the league have basically played against the Trail Blazers, and those who have not played against each other have begun to watch videos to study Gan Guoyang's technical characteristics.

Gan Guoyang is afraid of double-teaming, he doesn't have a mid-range shot, and his left hand is not as good as his right hand. Everyone knows the flaws, so when opponents defend Gan Guoyang, they will try to double-team as much as possible, put the middle distance, and force Gan Guoyang to use his left hand. [

In addition, Gan Guoyang is now cautious in his shots, so he has not scored for a while.

This has caused some media to question Gan Guoyang's scoring ability, and often compare him with Olajuwon, thinking that Gan Guoyang may be just a powerful blue-collar insider. All-round dead angle attack.

Gan Guoyang took a hot shower in the locker room, thinking about these troublesome things, and felt more and more that it was really not easy to really play a sky in this league.

Judging from the ups and downs of the team in the absence of Vandeweghe, Gan Guoyang is not in the real core position of the whole team, and his ability to control the team and the game is not as good as he imagined.

The Blazers are not a rebuilding team, and Gan Guoyang will naturally not become the core of the team's training.

Of course, Gan Guoyang has never been a guy who is jealous or complains. He always tells himself in his heart that one day he will rely on his own efforts to become a real superstar.

"Gan, someone called you, it seems to be from Nike." After Gan Guoyang took a shower, the team staff told him something about him.

"OK, thanks."

"Hello."

"Hi Gan, I'm Falk, congratulations on winning the game today. You can come to Hyde Park on Chicago's South Side tomorrow morning, and I'll pick you up. Nike is going to shoot a sneaker advertisement for you and Jordan, don't worry , it will not affect your flight."

The caller was Gan Guoyang and Jordan's co-manager. He had already negotiated with Nike to take the opportunity of the Trail Blazers to Chicago to shoot an advertisement for them.

It can be said that Nike attaches great importance to the shooting of this advertisement, and the launch of this advertisement will also determine the success or failure of the entire Nike company.

Before Gan Guoyang came to Chicago, he already knew that he would come here to shoot commercials, and he was waiting for Nike to notify him, but he didn't expect Falk to call again.

In Gan Guoyang's eyes, Falk has always been elusive. He met this Jewish agent on the streets of Inglewood, and then he always appeared suddenly when needed, giving Gan Guoyang important help.

So Gan Guoyang has always wondered whether this guy knew that he had traveled through time, and then came here to help him.

However, it was impossible for Gan Guoyang to ask Falk to confirm. After returning to the hotel for a good night's rest, Gan Guoyang went downstairs to the hotel the next morning, got into Falk's car, and went to Hyde Park together.

"Why do you have a car in Chicago?" Gan Guoyang asked while sitting in Falke's Sylvia car. Every time he went to a certain city, Gan Guoyang found that Falke always had a car.

"Since I'm an agent, I'm naturally connected in every city that has nb teams. Of course, it's not a problem to get a car to drive. This is a Chicago kid. If I go to Portland to ask you to borrow a car, will you Lend it to me?"

"No, I don't have a car." Gan Guoyang was extremely firm.

"........."

Soon, Falk drove Gan Guoyang to Hyde Park on the South Side of Chicago.

Chicago's South District (south-se) is the central area of ​​the entire Chicago, which is the area with the longest history and the deepest cultural heritage in Chicago - although any place on the map of China has a longer history of humanities than here.

And Hyde Park is the most historic place in the South District. Of course, this is not a "park", but the name of an area. There are a large number of buildings in the 18th and 19th centuries. The World Expo in 1893 is also here. held.

The reason why Nike set the shooting location here is very simple. It is not to take advantage of the profound cultural resources here, but because first, it is easy to recognize here; second, it is easy to find a free shooting location instead of a studio...

Gan Guoyang had a good experience of the historical and cultural characteristics of the United States in Hyde Park, especially the buildings of the University of Chicago, which gave people a heavy and majestic feeling in the cold Chicago weather.

Then Gan Guoyang saw Jordan, who had been here for a while, on a venue borrowed by Nike from the community, and then the two shot together the advertisements that Nike tailored for them, which was also Gan Guoyang's first Commercial advertising.

The content of the advertisement is very simple, and almost no director is needed. Gan Guoyang and Qiao Dan completed it after a little discussion and cooperation.

The entire commercial shooting took only half an hour. After repeated shooting several times and selected the best effect, the first cooperation between Gan Guoyang and Jordan came to an end.

For two opponents who have just fought on the field, such a business cooperation immediately made the two young people a little uncomfortable.

Especially in yesterday's game, the two of them spat out a lot of trash talking to each other, and now the two of them looked at each other a little weirdly, and they were going to go their separate ways as soon as the commercial was filmed.

At this time, some small accidents happened on the edge of the venue, because this is a community venue, and the shooting of advertisements is also open to the public. Jordan and Gan Guoyang are both well-known rising stars in the basketball world, so they attracted many people to watch.

Among them was a little boy holding his mother's hand, who looked only three or four years old, and was holding a big worn-out basketball in his hand.

When Gan Guoyang was about to leave, the kid threw a basketball at Gan Guoyang. Although his strength was too weak, the ball couldn't hit Gan Guoyang, but rolled on the ground twice.

The other onlookers laughed, because Gan Guoyang defeated the Bulls yesterday, so he naturally became the object of hatred of Chicago fans.

"I'm sorry sir, he didn't mean it." The child's mother ran forward to pick up the ball and apologized to Gan Guoyang.

"It's okay." Gan Guoyang didn't care.

"Look Gan, even a three-year-old child hates you." Jordan said.

"If I were in Portland, everyone would love me. And you are also a New Yorker, do you think New Yorkers would love you?" Gan Guoyang responded.

"I'm going to make all the people in America fall in love with me."

"Then I will make the whole world fall in love with me!"

"The whole solar system!"

"The whole galaxy!"

"The whole universe..."

…………

At this time, the young mother obviously didn't want her child to hear the argument between the two women, so she took the basketball and took the child away: "Let's go, Wade, remember not to argue with fools."
