The Golden Age of Basketball

"Good evening, everyone, and welcome to the 1985 NBA All-Star Game! This is the Indianapolis Mountain People Dome, and I'm going to explain this star-studded game. I'm Dick Stockton."

The 1985 NBA All-Star Game finally kicked off at the Dome on the night of February 2.

The main venue for this competition, the Mountain People Dome in Indianapolis, is not a dedicated basketball court, but a large football field.

Therefore, it occupies a much larger area than ordinary basketball halls, and it can accommodate much more spectators. Tonight, 6 spectators came to watch this basketball feast, which is three times that of ordinary basketball halls. times more.

This stadium was built in 1984, that is, just last year. After it became the home arena of the Indiana Colts, it immediately went through temporary renovations and hosted the All-Star Game for 85. Perhaps only such a magnificent venue can be used. It is more suitable for the All-Star game of Huaguang Yicai.

As soon as Gan Guoyang entered this large stadium, he began to lament the strong economic and technological strength of the United States at that time. He thought that such a large stadium would take another 20 years for China to build.

At the same time, looking at the stadium stands that are 50.00% higher than the general basketball stadium stands, and the densely packed fans on it, his heartbeat can't help but speed up a bit.

"First of all, let us introduce the honorary captain of both sides, the honorary captain of the Western All-Star team, is the shooting guard from the Los Angeles Lakers, six-time All-Star selection, Jerry West!" In one link, when the players enter the field, the honorary captains on both sides are introduced first, that is, the old stars who have retired.

The Western All-Star team chose Jerry West, the legendary "logo" man, as the honorary captain. He looks elite in suits and leather shoes, and Gan Guoyang also knows that this big guy is not only good on the court, but also After retiring, he also turned his hands into clouds and turned his hands into rain in nb. [

Immediately afterwards, the western star players were introduced one by one. The appearance of the stars is also particular. In terms of seniority, generally speaking, the more famous and the older the player, the later the player will appear.

Of course, the first five players must be the last five to play, but generally the first five players must be well-known, powerful and experienced players.

Although Gan Guoyang is only a rookie, he is still a Chinese, but he was able to play fourth, behind English, Larry Nance, and Calvin Knight, which fully shows that Gan Guoyang's strength is still very popular. Approval from other players in the league.

On the other hand, Olajuwon entered the field immediately after Gan Guoyang, one ranked second and the other champion. Their superstar status was doubtful in the first All-Star.

The starting five in the Western Conference are Ralph Sampson, Adrian Dantley, George Gervin, Magic Johnson and Abdullah-Jabbar in that order.

Ramsey became the head coach of the Western All-Star team, with two assistant coaches sitting next to him.

Immediately afterwards, was the introduction of the Eastern Conference All-Star lineup. The honorary captain of the Eastern Conference team was a former superstar point guard from the Rochester Royals and Milwaukee Bucks star, "bg-o" Oscar Robertson.

Of course Gan Guoyang knew that this Oscar Robertson was the famous triple-double little prince in nb history. It will be much more enthusiastic.

"This Robertson doesn't seem to have won any special honors in nb history. Why is he so popular?" Gan Guoyang watched as Robertson buttoned up his suit and walked slowly onto the court to greet the fans Cheers, a little puzzled in my heart.

On this side of the East, the starting five, Isiah Thomas-until he went on the court, he was still sitting on the bench smiling like a child; Michael Jordan, his face was more tense, a little tense, and Gan Guoyang is about the same; Moses Malone, immersed in the water as always; Dr. J Owen, with a slight smile, looks decent; Larry Bird, there is nothing on his face.

Gan Guoyang took a closer look at Jordan standing opposite him. It made sense for Jordan to be selected as the All-Star starter in his rookie season, because his personal performance was too dazzling. - King and Larry Bird passed, but he still ranked first in total points.

And his highly ornamental style of play, combined with the perfect combination of practicality and efficiency, has made him a new idol admired by young fans.

Gan Guoyang expressed his envy for this. At the same time, this is his goal of constantly striving to surpass Jordan, but he will not suppress Jordan.

Gan Guoyang saw Jordan's sullen look, and knew that he must still be concerned about Thomas' intentionally excluding Jordan from the circle in the elevator.

Gan Guoyang disliked Thomas very much. As a rookie, he couldn't see Thomas bullying the rookie, so he talked to Jordan all the way. [

But after arriving on the field, it was Gan Guoyang who was in the west and Jordan was in the east, and several other young people were also in the west. Now Gan Guoyang was helpless, and it was impossible to help Jordan.

Besides, what Gan Guoyang is trying to help tonight is another person, that is the starting power forward in the West, Ralph Sampson.

The two sides quickly took off the sportswear of their respective teams, put on the special uniforms for the All-Star Game and stood on the field.

Of course, Gan Guoyang was a substitute, so he had to sit obediently on the sidelines and watch the game. This was the first time Gan Guoyang served as a substitute after he came to nb.

The Western All-Star team, which is regarded as an away game, wears blue jerseys, while the Eastern All-Star team, which is regarded as a home game, wears white jerseys. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Moses Malone, the old enemies, are already standing in the middle circle and getting ready jump ball.

Although Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is older, his height really has an advantage, so he still got the ball and passed the ball to Magic Johnson. The All-Star Game officially started.

Although the All-Star Game is a performance game, winning or losing is not important, but since it is a game, it is natural to have a winner. Johnson also took the ball and started to organize the attack as usual.

According to Ramsey's simple arrangement before the game, his requirement is to "let go of the game under the command of the magician", which is basically the same as no requirement.

But Ramsey still instructed the magician to pass more passes to Ralph Sansamp and give him more opportunities to perform. His reason is naturally that he hopes to support young people.

For the magician, there is no need for him to win the mvp. This season, all his thoughts are on revenge against the Celtics.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar seems to be an old god, and he has no interest in the All-Star Game mvp.

George Gervin has already won an All-Star Game mvp in 80, and he has no interest in winning it again.

As for Adrian Dantley, a stingy guy, plus an ugly guy, the magician really can't think of any reason for him to win the mvp.

So the magician naturally agreed happily, so he began to look for opportunities to pass the ball to Sampson on the outside at the first ball after the game started.

And Sampson was also repeatedly stuck in position, but Bird opened the game very aggressively in defense. Sampson managed to get the ball in the low position on the left side, turned around and made a jumper, but the shot was too hasty, and the ball hit the neck of the basket. On, the rebound was pocketed by Jordan.

"This guy is too anxious. If you shoot slowly, you will die." Sitting off the court, Gan Guoyang was even more anxious than Sampson. You must know that Sampson's opportunity was exchanged for his promise of "averaging three assists per game".

Thinking of getting three assists per game, and his current average of only 12 assists per game, Gan Guoyang's head grew bigger when he was sitting on the bench.

At this time, the Eastern All-Star team had already launched a counterattack. Thomas passed the ball to Bird on the baseline, but Bird was double-teamed by two people. I realized that Malone wanted to layup directly, but Kareem Abdul-Jabbar may be out of habit. When he saw Moses Malone about to layup, he slapped him and interfered with the layup.

However, Jordan "plugged in" later, overwhelmed everyone with a run-up jump, lightly tapped the ball in the air, and the basketball slid into the basket.

The first backboard in the opening game, the first offensive rebound, and the first point all came from Michael Jordan.

Gan Guoyang became worried all of a sudden, this guy Jordan wouldn't steal the show, right?

Sure enough, Jordan quickly grabbed the second rebound, George Gervin missed a layup, Jordan took the rebound and launched a quick counterattack again.

The ball stumbled three times and two times in the frontcourt. After all, these superstars are also impromptu performance teams, so don't use tactics, and there is no basic offensive tacit understanding.

The ball finally came into the hands of Isiah Thomas from outside the three-point line. Thomas saw that the defender was far away. Anyway, it was the All-Star Game, so he took off and shot a three-pointer.

The ball spun twice on the rim and went in!The Eastern All-Stars led 5-0 in the opening game.

"This goal is also scored!" Gan Guoyang saw that Thomas could make three-pointers. You must know that during the regular season, Thomas only made 20.00% of his three-pointers.

Afterwards, the two sides started a turnover battle on the field. Either you made a mistake in dribbling, or I walked with the ball. After two or three rounds in a row, the entire field was a mess.

This is not because the level of the players is not high, but because their level is too high, but there is a lack of tacit understanding between the players. If you want to play on the court, but you don't have such a fit, then naturally you will make mistakes again and again.

And at the beginning of the game, the players on both sides were really defending seriously, so the scene would definitely not be good.

However, as the game progressed, both sides became more and more relaxed and began to perform to their heart's content, then the game will naturally become more and more exciting.
