The Golden Age of Basketball

At the end of the first half, the battle between the two sides was 49:51. The Blazers continued to lead by two points. Gan Guoyang played the entire first half, scored 22 points, 6 rebounds, and a very high shooting percentage.

This first half is a typical traditional style of play centered around the center, similar to the Blazers led by Ramsey three or four years ago, using Gan Guoyang's strong offensive power to develop tactics around him, and of course Drexler Low attack to supplement.

This kind of offensive efficiency is very good. The Blazers' offense is not fierce. It can be seen from the score that the tactics are even and stable, without any ups and downs.

In contrast, although the Pistons are tightly biting the Trail Blazers, they have raised the offensive rhythm very quickly. Thomas and Dumars in the backcourt took on most of the offensive tasks, and the few players inside did not score very well. Opportunities were pretty much suppressed by the Blazers insiders.

"Everything is going according to plan, our performance is very stable, the third quarter will be the one that decides the outcome, Porter, Cauchy, Buck, Arvidas, you have to take on more scoring tasks. In this quarter, we must strive for full bloom and play a team offense, we must adjust and continue to lead the rhythm of the game."

In the locker room, Adelman was quite satisfied with the team's performance in the first half. It is expected that the backcourt defense could not keep a close eye on Thomas and Dumars. The explosive power of outside players is generally stronger, but they often lack stamina. .

In the first half, both Porter and Cauchy got a relatively sufficient rest. In fact, these two people have very good scoring explosive power and ability to grab points. Adelman just hopes that they can carry the banner of offense in the second half.

"Attack, attack, attack again, this is what we have to do. We have laid the foundation in the first half, just for this moment, to win this game, and then, be ready to say goodbye to them!"

Adelman rarely spoke domineeringly, to boost the morale of the players, the state of the Blazers is really good tonight.

However, the Pistons will not surrender so easily, not to mention that this is their home court, and if they lose another game, they will be directly awarded the championship point by the Blazers. No matter what, they will grit their teeth and resist.

"Gan, we are always planning the game, but the game is never in the plan. You are our regulator. The situation on the court must be stable. Jerome, Terry and Buck will not break through their barriers so easily. Defensively, Detroit's front line is really tough to deal with, put pressure on, put on pressure."

Every time after setting up the tactics, Adelman would pull Gan Guoyang aside for a separate exchange. As the saying goes, the plan cannot keep up with the changes. Adelman is making plans for the game, but Daly will definitely make countermeasures. Everything will not go on so smoothly, which is why the basketball court needs superstars, because superstars can break through the plan, or reshape the plan.

Gan Guoyang will always be a plan maker outside of Adelman's plan. Whenever various situations arise on the court, he can save the situation with his strong offensive and defensive capabilities.

"No problem. Detroit's internal state is not very good tonight, but it's hard to say in the second half. That guy Lambiel is not so easy to deal with. Our striker is very contained by him."

Although Gan Guoyang hates Lambiel, he admits that Lambiel is indeed very powerful. Since the start of the finals, Cauchy and Buck Williams, who have always played well in the previous playoffs, including Kevin Darren on the bench Kvos, all were crushed under Lambiel's hands.

Buck Williams' offensive rebounding ability was completely curbed by Lambiel. This heavy white center has no bounce, but his rear rebound protection is very good, second only to Gan Guoyang in the league, and his rebounding posture is terrible , I like to spread my arms, and then start to swing my arms and show my elbows when I take off. Maybe someone who rushes to grab an offensive rebound will be thrown to the ground by an elbow, and then Lambiel will turn around with the ball and look innocent. Look at the referee.

The empty cuts under the basket that Cauchy relies on for survival, and the ability to use his running and jumping ability to create scoring opportunities, are also restrained by this evil monster entrenched in the basket. The scene that often appears in the game is that Cauchy goes in , then Cosey went down and the ball was in Lambiel's hands.

"Yes, he is ten times more difficult to deal with than imagined, so I need your performance, hit him, keep hitting him." Adelman said to Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang is the only person who has nothing to do with Lambiel. Basically, Gan Guoyang just shits and pees on Lambiel’s head casually, but Gan Guoyang doesn’t really kill Lambiel. Lambiel continues to play his role. He is just a single defense It's just that Gan Guoyang can't live, and no one in the league can guard against it anyway.

Gan Guoyang nodded. He knew that this was a difficult task. It was no problem to score on Lambir, but it was not so easy to really kill Lambir. .

On the other side of the Pistons locker room, Daly was not idle. He knew that the game had fallen into the rhythm of the Blazers, and they had to make changes if they wanted to win, so he scolded the Pistons in the locker room. Poor performance, especially in the interior and low post, if it weren't for the outbreak of high shooting percentage from the outside, the Pistons would never be only two points behind in the first half.

The two sides made adjustments and preparations, and returned to the center of the field after a 15-minute break.

Before the second half of the game between the two sides was about to start, Lambiel stretched his arms, walked slowly to the Blazers' bench, and said to all the Blazers' bench players: "You, all, fuck, all Yes shit!"

After speaking, Lambiel left with a smile on his face and returned to the center of the field to start the game. Gan Guoyang looked at Lambiel and knew that he ran to the bench to provoke again, because he saw Adelman's face was blue.

"After taking out the trash, you still look so disgusting." Gan Guoyang said to Ranbir.

"Oh, I only take out the garbage at the dump. I just told them, you're full of fucking shit." Lambiel said with a smile.

"I'll let you know who's the shit, Bill." Gan Guoyang pushed and shoved Ranbir, and Ranbir immediately responded, Gan Guoyang pushed him again, and Ranbir responded again.

The game hasn't started yet, the two of you just push me a little bit, and I push you a little bit, it looks like they are playing for fun, but in fact, both of them are suppressing their inner anger, so that they can't help but give up. The opponent punched him and was sent down by the referee.

The second half of the game started quickly. As Adelman expected, the Pistons changed very quickly. The Pistons attacked for the first time. Thomas suddenly accelerated and went straight to the inside. Rick Mahon cut into the inside to receive Thomas' pass He made a strong layup, which was Rick Mahon's first point in this game. He was very resolute in this attack.

The two sides were tied at once, but then turned around and Terry Porter hit a three-pointer on the left wing. It was a small pick-and-roll cooperation between him and Sabonis, and Sabonis was like a wall Blocked in front of Potter, giving him enough projection space.

This is also Porter's first three-pointer in this game. It seems that the players on both sides who performed poorly in the first half are slowly recovering.

However, Gan Guoyang confronted Lambir on the court, because Gan Guoyang began to grab offensive rebounds.

Throughout the first half, Gan Guoyang only grabbed 6 rebounds, all of which were backcourt rebounds, because the rhythm of the two sides was slow, the offensive rounds were few, and the shots were quite cautious, and the backcourt rebound protection on both sides was quite good.

But in the second half, Gan Guoyang believed that if he wanted the Blazers' front line to truly display its power, he must take the lead in disrupting the Pistons' inside position, and at the same time create trouble and pressure for Lambiel. The best way is to grab offensive rebounds.

Lambiel soon discovered that Gan Guoyang no longer returned to defense immediately as in the first half, but entangled with him at the basket after every shot of his teammates, and then desperately fought for rebounds.

Gan Guoyang is so powerful that Lambiel can't stand him. Moreover, Gan Guoyang is very thieves against Lambiel, and he can do everything he can to pull, kick and block. During a rebound, Gan Guoyang put an elbow on Lambiel's abdomen, which is very concealed , Just waved his arm and rubbed it, then got an offensive rebound and dunked successfully.

"Fuck! Why are you so dirty? Didn't you see the referee elbow me?"

Gan Guoyang almost laughed out loud when he heard Lambiel's defense. Even the referee was a little dazed. Lambiel even complained that others played dirty.

Of course Lambiel would not be reconciled to this kind of treatment. Turning around, he pushed Gan Guoyang out of the bottom line in defense. Gan Guoyang followed the ball and flew directly into the bottom line auditorium. Big, so Gan Guoyang didn't flop, he was really thrown out.

The referee immediately blew Lambiel's foul, and Lambiel spread his hands towards the referee, but this time he did not appeal, he did it on purpose, Gan Guoyang did not get angry, but stood up from the baseline with the ball, ready to throw in again attack.

Chuck Daly on the sidelines became a little anxious, and began to remind Lambiel loudly to calm down, because Lambiel never engages in emotional disputes. Every foul and every malicious injury of his has a purpose, not like Now it's purely for revenge.

Obviously, Ranbir was provoked by Gan Guoyang.

"Hey, Bill, later, I will take a sigma step first, then break through from the bottom line, then turn around, push you away, make a fake move, step up and down, cut to the left, and make a layup." Gan Guoyang stood beside Lambiel Beside, said to him, with a confident look on his face.
