At the end of April, Portland has begun to have a hint of summer, the temperature has begun to gradually rise, and the number of clothes on people's bodies has also decreased. Although it is located in a high latitude zone, the overall location is similar to that of Northeast China, but Portland Because Portland is close to the warm Pacific Ocean, when New York at the same latitude is still snowing due to the influence of the cold Atlantic Ocean, Portlanders have already begun to enjoy the warmth of the sun in advance. The official start of the NBA playoffs has sent Portland and even the entire Oregon region into madness. There is no way, the Oregonians only have such a precious team, and supporting the Trail Blazers is their only choice, not to mention this year's The Trail Blazers are powerful. Tied with the best record in history, created the best start in history, the top star MVP is certain, the best coach will also be won by Adelman, the best lineup must also have multiple seats for Blazers players, and the Blazers will also be at home throughout the season. Every game is full - in fact, since Gan Guoyang came to Portland, even in the season when he was retired, the Blazers were still full at home in the regular season. If someone comes to Portland at this time, they can see things related to the Portland Trail Blazers in various places in the city, posters posted everywhere, banners pulled up in various communities, and the Trail Blazers outside the Memorial Coliseum. The team¡¯s huge promotional curtain, red and black became the main colors of the city. This undoubtedly increased the pressure on the visiting Golden State Warriors. When Don Nelson took his players to Portland by plane, looking at the ubiquitous Trail Blazers posters, he couldn't help but mutter: " Red, black, red, black, this place is simply hell But fortunately, we brought the shiny golden yellow to bring some light here. "Don Nelson's words made the Warriors players smile, but it was very difficult. They soon became silent. Although Nelson expressed optimism about the series before the game and claimed to have found a way to restrain the Trail Blazers, especially a way to restrain Gan Guoyang, the Warriors players were not as confident as Frankenstein. Perhaps Porter Lan Zhen is their hell, and their little light will soon be submerged in blood and darkness. Compared with the Warriors players, the atmosphere in the Trail Blazers team is much more relaxed. In the pre-game training, Adelman did not increase the intensity of the team, but only did some simple tactical coordination exercises to familiarize the players. After all, resting for several days and not playing for a few days may have adverse effects on high-level players. However, the Trail Blazers players were still very serious on the court. No one dared to smile and not train well. Gan Guoyang maintained strong aggression and aggressiveness throughout the training, and constantly shouted to remind his teammates to move and cover up defense. Obviously Gan Guoyang takes the game very seriously. "Okay, okay, let's take a break. There will be a pre-game media interview in a while. Everyone, prepare yourself and wipe off your sweat to make you look more photogenic." Adelman saw that under the leadership of Gan Guoyang, the players They all looked like they were starting to get serious. They immediately clapped their hands and stopped the training. Seeing Gan Guoyang looking like he was giving his all, Adelman was afraid that this guy would get some minor injuries or illnesses during the game. That would be terrible. That's bad. "Sometimes you should be more relaxed. In the first round, don't put so much pressure on your teammates. Of course I know you are doing the right thing." Adelman pulled Gan Guoyang aside and said to him. Now Adel Man and Gan Guoyang had to pay attention to their wording when speaking, and even if they gave him suggestions, they would not forget to praise him afterwards. "I understand, but I think we still lack some ruthlessness. In order to prepare for the tough battle ahead, we must cheer up now, otherwise it will be too late. Even if a lion pounces on a rabbit, it must go all out." Gan Guoyang said while drinking water. Adelman had no choice but to nod. If Pat Riley was Gan Guoyang's head coach, he would definitely hold Gan Guoyang's hand tightly to show his understanding after listening to Gan Guoyang's words. Riley is such a tough guy, and Adelman is just the opposite. Being more gentle, he also pays more attention to adjusting the players' mentality and allowing them to relax and perform. After a while, it was time for media interviews. The number of training interview periods arranged by the NBA for each team has been increased to two. They are available in the morning and afternoon, and the time is relatively long. Players must abide by the regulations and participate in interviews, just like after the game. Just like interviews, you will be punished for not participating. Gan Guoyang was fined a lot of money for this. Today he accepted an interview honestly. He was a reporter from Sports Illustrated. In the training hall, he started asking Gan Guoyang some questions, and Gan Guoyang answered them truthfully. "Don Nelson said before the game that he had found a way to deal with the Blazers and you. What do you think of his statement?" After chatting for a while, the reporter finally began to let Gan Guoyang pick up the hot potato. Generally speaking, in this situation , during the regular season, Gan Guoyang would perfunctory and prevaricate, saying a few high-sounding words.He was obedient and dismissed the reporter. But this time it was different. After Gan Guoyang heard this, he said directly: "Let him use whatever tricks he has. If the Warriors can walk out of Portland standing, then I will go to Oakland lying down." As soon as Gan Guoyang said this, people quickly It caused quite a stir in the media. This was a naked provocation. Although Don Nelson's words were also provocative, they were relatively normal statements. He said that he had found a way to deal with the opponent, but it did not mean that he would definitely win; and Gan Guoyang said no. The Warriors walked out of Portland standing, otherwise he went to Oakland lying down. This is a swearing. This is the favorite news content of the media. No matter what the final result is, people always like to hear it. Of course, there must be more people who hope that Gan Guoyang will be slapped in the face. After all, although Gan Guoyang is very popular, there are still 24 other teams in the league. Fans of other teams are of course on the opposite side of Gan Guoyang and the Trail Blazers at this moment. "Gan, can you say that? Don't let the media take advantage of you. It will be easy for you." After the interview, the trainer Culp who was following Gan Guoyang asked Gan Guoyang. "Don't worry, this will give me the motivation to show off those guys in the first round, otherwise I'm afraid I will lose my energy." Gan Guoyang said with an indifferent look. But Culp knew that Gan Guoyang was definitely joking. He didn't see that Gan Guoyang couldn't cheer up. Because of the upcoming game, Gan Guoyang was particularly excited today. This excitement lasted until the next day before the game. Culp could feel it while standing on the sidelines watching Gan Guoyang warm up. Gan Guoyang's hormone secretion must have exceeded the standard. It was probably similar to the situation with ten beautiful women in front of him. During the warm-up He has dunked multiple times in a row, which is rare in normal times. ¡¡¡¡¡¡ ¡°Dear Portland fans, I¡¯m Bill Shaunley, sitting at Memorial Coliseum right now to bring you the 1989 NBA playoff games. The playoffs will be all-round tonight. To start, the Portland Trail Blazers play against the Golden State Warriors at home. This is a game between the first in the Western Conference and the eighth in the Western Conference, but the Trail Blazers will not relax at all. "Shaunley sat on the sidelines again and was doing his thing! Although he said that the Blazers would never relax in the commentary work, he clearly saw Gan Guoyang, who was standing in the field warming up, smiling at him, looking very relaxed, and Shaunley also smiled back. For five years, Sean Leigh commented on every game Gan Guoyang participated in. Gan Guoyang could not hear Sean Leigh's voice on the court, but when watching the off-field video, Gan Guoyang also liked to comment on Sean Leigh's voice. He turned on the commentary recording and watched it, and he became accustomed to Shaunley's passionate voice. The two also have a good relationship off the court. Shaunley is a die-hard fan of the Trail Blazers and a die-hard fan of Gan Guoyang. He never hesitates to praise Gan Guoyang. The game is about to start soon. A big show is about to begin in the bustling Memorial Stadium. The first appetizing show will be played between the Trail Blazers and the Warriors. Before the opening ceremony, Gan Guoyang suddenly walked to the Warriors' bench, came to Don Nelson, and shook hands with Don Nelson. The two people's remarks before the game were indeed tense, but Nelson, as an NBA veteran, was on the court. Gan Guoyang still has to show him enough respect. But with Gan Guoyang's character, he certainly wouldn't just shake hands with Nelson. At the same time, he looked at the Warriors' bench, stretched out his hand to say hello, and said: "Welcome to Portland, best wishes. You guys had a good time, you won¡¯t come back again.¡± After saying that, Gan Guoyang walked away, leaving only the stunned Warriors substitute and Nelson with a livid face. The playoffs have begun, and Gan Guoyang is finally peeling off the disguise and desperate for victory.
