The Golden Age of Basketball

Chapter 394 The Most Powerful Cannon

A player will never be able to achieve great success if he does not have a combative heart.

In a certain sense, those nba superstars who have made great achievements all have paranoid personalities that are competitive and crazy, such as the acerbic Bird, the smiling magician, and Thomas, who always has a smile on his face. So is Moses Malone, who is lukewarm all day long.

The same is true for Gan Guoyang. His obsession with victory is often a little more reserved than that of American players, and occasionally he will appear lazy, but once someone dares to provoke him on the basketball court and threaten his victory, Gan Guoyang will not hesitate. He hesitated to fight back.

When he was a rookie, in order to win, he dared to score points on Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, dared to talk trash with Larry Bird, and dared to shake his fist at Lambiel.

Today, he is the hottest player in the league, but on this point, he hasn't changed at all.

Gan Guoyang also knows that Wilkins is the same person who pursues victory as him, and his dunks and provocations also reflect his dedication to victory, so Gan Guoyang respects such players, and he looks down on soft-bodied softies.

However, only one of them can stand on the stage of victory in the end, and there is no competitive sports that has the best of both worlds.

"I respect you, so I will make your death look better." These were Gan Guoyang's last words to Wilkins.

Afterwards, Gan Guoyang began to show off all the offensive skills he had learned, practiced, and accumulated over the past five years. Like a battleship full of ammunition, he began to fire his [-]mm triple cannon and blast towards the opponent's basket.

In the 1986 playoffs, Gan Guoyang responded to all changes without change. He shocked the league with a quick turn and hook after catching the ball. In the Western Conference Finals and Finals, he was at a low position of 45 degrees on the left side and about 10 feet from the basket. , It is almost the opponent's death zone. Once Gan Guoyang comes, he feels that he will catch the ball in this position, ignoring the rhythm of the defense.

However, moves are always useful when they are old. After Gan Guoyang came back in the 1988 season, he found that all the teams began to study his hook, the position where he catches the ball, the most comfortable release point, and every detail of him. , especially some strong teams.

Fortunately, Gan Guoyang's various offensive skills are improving in an all-round way. In this season, in addition to COSCO shots, Gan Guoyang's inside hooks, turnaround jump shots, fake moves at the basket, up and down steps, Sik Mabu, fingertip picking, small throwing, especially his left-handed skills, have all made great progress.

Even Karp, the Trail Blazers trainer who watched Gan Guoyang improve a little bit, said that Gan Guoyang's learning progress is amazingly fast, and he can see significant improvement in his skills in almost a month, and this improvement has been on the rise. conduct.

Gan Guoyang's artillery fire was extremely fierce. He first received the ball from the low position on the right side, used a quick back turn to get rid of Moses Malone, and then successfully dunked with both hands. After the goal, Gan Guoyang pointed to Wilkins, as if Saying to him "it's-for-you."

Wilkins tried to fight back on the offensive end, but his mid-range jumper hit the iron, and his release was a little too hasty.

Terry Porter, who got the backcourt rebound, did not directly launch a fast break, but suppressed the rhythm and prepared to organize a half-court attack.

Porter knew what he should do now, and that was to hand the ball to Gan Guoyang.

This time Gan Guoyang continued to receive the ball in the low position on the right side, then held the ball with one hand, and pretended to pass the ball to Terry Porter who was cutting in. Porter took away the interference defense from the outside line and cleared the right side for Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang quickly turned from the back basket to the front basket, holding the ball with both hands and making a shoulder-shaking feint to break through from the left side inward.

Although Moses Malone is old, he also got angry when he was beaten like this by Gan Guoyang tonight. He tried his best to defend Gan Guoyang for this ball. Gan Guoyang went left, and Ma Long followed closely.

But Gan Guoyang's breakthrough speed was not fast, he did it on purpose, he was leaning against Moses Malone with his body, and after reaching the basket, he made a feint and pretended to turn around behind his back. Malone subconsciously changed his center of gravity, and Gan Guoyang immediately held the ball Turned in the opposite direction, passed under Malone's armpit, and made a low layup.

This is a skill Gan Guoyang learned from Olajuwon. He used realistic fake moves to shake the defender's center of gravity, and then immediately made moves in the opposite direction. The whole movement was done in one go, and the layup was extremely smooth. Just hit the board and put it in the basket.

The Blazers' bench players jumped up one after another, waving the towels in their hands, and Sabonis stood up like a big telegraph pole while clapping vigorously, smirking.

Gan Guoyang's goal will undoubtedly become a classic goal in his career, and it will appear repeatedly in future wonderful reviews.

The bombardment continued, and Gan Guoyang on the defensive end was also extremely strong.

Doug Rivers tried to play a quick counterattack. After a quick serve from the backcourt, he held the ball and went straight to the frontcourt. Because the Blazers players were still immersed in this wonderful goal, it was easiest to take it lightly at this time.

However, Rivers, a guy with a big head and a thick neck, got into the inside line of the Blazers like a mole, and Gan Guoyang greeted him with a blow to the head.

Gan Guoyang was not there to reflect on his beautiful goal, but had already stared at Doc Rivers, followed all the way to the inside, calculated Rivers' pace, and took off at the same time when he was about to force a layup.

Cover the sky.

This is the feeling of Rivers, Gan Guoyang opened his arms and blocked it from behind.

The ball in Rivers' hands flew to the backboard, and before it touched the tempered glass board, it was pressed by a pair of hands on the backboard.

"Oh!"

Gan Guoyang nailed the ball to the backboard with both hands, and then picked it up from the air!

Nailed the big cap with both hands, and directly regained the ball.

Gan Guoyang handed the ball to Porter again, and ran back to the frontcourt as if nothing had happened, Porter still did not launch a fast break.

The Hawks players knew what was going to happen next, Porter would hand the ball to Gan Guoyang, and Gan Guoyang would play singles.

However, everyone knew what he was going to do, but no one could stop him, not even preventing Porter from passing the ball to Gan Guoyang, because Gan Guoyang received the ball from outside the three-point line this time.

For the top three-pointer, Malone didn't follow. Rivers didn't know whether he should help defend. Wilkins didn't think about defense at all, he just thought about how to get it back for the next attack.

As a result, Gan Guoyang shot directly from beyond the three-point line.

This season, Gan Guoyang's three-point shooting rate has reached an "astonishing" 37%, that is to say, one of three points. In fact, he probably only takes two or three shots in a game, usually with sudden shots. , Throw the opponent by surprise.

This ball Gan Guoyang also shot very suddenly, the opponent was still weighing how to position, Gan Guoyang had already shot.

"Shua~" The frontal three-pointer is the easiest to shoot from all positions. It was really a mistake for the Eagles to let Gan Guoyang shoot in this place.

With a three-pointer, Gan Guoyang scored seven points in a row, and the difference between the two sides came to 13 points again.

The Hawks coach still wants to grit his teeth and call a timeout for another round, imitating Adelman and letting the players solve their own problems.

As a result, the team made a serve error in the backcourt. Drexler made a steal, but the layup was interfered and missed. Gan Guoyang struggled to grab the frontcourt rebound. After getting the ball, he did not force a layup. The other side then made a layup.

This step was light and fast, and the left-handed layup was put in close to the basket, without giving the opponent a chance to block the shot.

After scoring 9 points in a row, Gan Guoyang finally smashed the eagle's feathers. The eagle's coach couldn't sit still anymore and could only call a timeout. He couldn't pretend anymore.

At this time, the Eagles' home court could not be called silent, but the audience was also abnormally silent. The players were stunned, and so were the audience.

This is an inside player they have never seen before. He is proficient in various inside skills, but you can't let him go outside. He will let you know when you let him go.

His back to the basket is as good as any super center, and his footsteps facing the basket are like a small forward. From Wilkins to the audience at the scene, there is an idea in their hearts, "It is impossible to limit him."

The last person who made them think this way was Red No. 23. His scoring on this field is also like cutting melons and vegetables, so sharp that it makes people desperate.

Now, Gan Guoyang's artillery fire did not mean to stop to cool down.
