On the evening of May 7, Gan Guoyang was in front of the TV and witnessed one of the most classic shots in Michael Jordan's career, "the-shot." Jordan led the Bulls to trail the Cavaliers 99:100 in the last second of Game 5. With three points, he hit the winning shot to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, leading the Bulls to the sixth overall pick in the Eastern Conference. They defeated the Cavaliers with a big score of 3:2 and successfully advanced to the next round. Gan Guoyang watched Jordan jump high like a cheetah after the buzzer-beater, waving his fist vigorously, and couldn't help but feel a little boiling in his heart. This was a perfect shot, and even the score was so perfect, 101:100. , Gan Guoyang almost threw the water glass in his hand when Jordan made the shot. At the same time, the Trail Blazers' opponents in this finals have also been announced. The Phoenix Suns defeated the Seattle SuperSonics at home and successfully entered the Western Conference semifinals. However, at this time, Gan Guoyang did not care about his opponents in the semifinals. He especially wanted to make a call. Jordan. So Gan Guoyang ran aside and picked up the phone, and then pulled out a phone book from the drawer, which recorded Jordan's BP number. In that era without mobile phones, BP machines became an important tool for people to communicate. At that time, BP machines in the United States It has become very common. In fact, China had also begun to use bp machines at that time. After calling the BP paging station and giving his number, Gan Guoyang hung up the phone, picked up a basketball from his room and went to his home court to practice. Gan Guoyang had also made such an exciting goal in the NCAA finals. He has experienced the finals, so he can experience the exciting mood, the sense of joy when everything is quiet for a moment, and only he is left in the world. Therefore, Gan Guoyang felt the same after seeing Jordan make that shot. Can't do it myself. "Forrest Gump, you still have to run out to play ball. Haven't you practiced enough today?" Wang Fuxi heard Gan Guoyang's voice coming out of the study, and saw Gan Guoyang running to the basketball court in the backyard with the ball. "Qiaodan will call me later, remember to call me!" Gan Guoyang did not forget to remind Wang Fuxi. Gan Guoyang came to the court, where Jordan shot just now, used the same posture to stay in the air and then shot. "Whoops!" Gan Guoyang also hit this jump shot, but there was no one in front of him to defend him. This was not a game. Gan Guoyang didn't stop. He kept shooting, shooting, and shooting. He imagined the 1984 NCAA Finals, imagined the 1986 Finals, and imagined every time he hit a key ball or a buzzer-beater. That kind of feeling. Excitement and fanaticism excited him. It was this thrill of survival that made him tenaciously pursue victory one after another. Fifteen minutes later, Wang Fuxi walked to the courtyard and told him that Jordan's call had come. Gan Guoyang hurried back to answer the phone. As soon as he got the phone, he heard Jordan's voice: "I did it. Gan, I did it." ! I feel like I¡¯m standing in the clouds. I feel like this is the best day in my life. I feel like I¡¯m different from before. I feel like the championship has opened the door to me!¡± Jordan¡¯s voice was loud, and there was noise behind it! , Gan Guoyang estimated that he should be celebrating with his teammates now. There should be a lot of people calling Jordan on their BP machines tonight, but he replied to Gan Guoyang immediately. "You're still far away! I'll be waiting for you in the finals, and then I'll show you what a real 'the-shot' is!" "Hahaha, don't be kidding, your three-legged cat shooting skills. "Jordan has always been unconvinced by Gan Guoyang's shooting level, because Gan Guoyang's three-pointer is actually better than him. "I'm not kidding, my shooting is as good as your layup, but you first think about how to beat Ewing. If you can't even gorilla, don't mention it to beat me." "Wow. , Wow, you should worry more about yourselves. I don't take Ewing seriously at all. He was not my opponent in college. Just watch." It makes sense for Jordan to look down on Ewing. When Georgetown was in college, they lost to North Carolina in the finals. Ewing performed very poorly, and it was Jordan who beat Georgetown. "Then let me tell you, Kevin Johnson was my defeat in high school. I could beat him until he didn't even recognize him." Kevin Johnson has become the Suns' top star this season and has risen so quickly. It's staggering. When the Suns play, Johnson appears as the finale. However, Gan Guoyang obviously doesn't like Kevin Johnson. In the California Southern Conference finals, Gan Guoyang led his team to sack Johnson's Sacramento High School. At this time, Ewing, who was far away in New York preparing for the second round, and Kevin Johnson, who was also immersed in joy after winning the life-and-death battle, must not have known that the two new hopes and city basketball heroes of Phoenix and New York were just like this. These two guys were scornful on the phone. However, they are really qualified and able to despise them. With their characters, even if they say these words in front of Ewing and Kevin Johnson, Ewing and Johnson may not dare to talk back.There are a lot of losses. The two guys chatted on the phone for a long time. Finally, Wang Fuxi urged Gan Guoyang to go to bed, and Gan Guoyang hung up the phone and went back to the room. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ May 9th, the first round of the playoffs is all over, and the Eastern and Western Conference semifinals matchups have been announced, the Portland Trail Blazers in the West versus the Phoenix Suns, the Los Angeles Lakers versus the Utah Jazz, and Detroit in the East The Pistons easily defeated the Celtics who lost Bird. Their opponent in the semifinals was the Milwaukee Bucks, while the Chicago Bulls will challenge the New York Knicks. The feud between the Bulls and the Knicks, and the feud between Jordan and Ewing, also officially kicked off. Before the game, Sabonis was sitting in the locker room in casual clothes. He looked a little disappointed. In the first round of the playoffs, Sabonis performed quite well and completed his tasks conscientiously. Manute Bol was Sabonis did nothing in front of him, which is not easy for an NBA rookie. Sabonis originally wanted to continue fighting with the team in the semifinals, but he didn't know that he had a knee problem. For the long-term consideration of his career, he followed the team doctor's advice and chose to sit out for two weeks. In two weeks, unless the Trail Blazers and Suns reach Game 7, Sabonis will not have a chance to play in the semifinals. "Be happy Arvidas, if I were you, I would sit comfortably in the best spot at Memorial Stadium and comment on how bad the guys on the court are playing while watching the game! If it were me, How great it will be!" Gan Guoyang looked at Sabonis's sad face and stepped forward to comfort him. There were still ten minutes left before the game started. Sabonis knew that Gan Guoyang was joking with him, but he was really in a depressed mood, so he just raised his head and smiled bitterly. "Okay, okay, Avidas, I promise to defeat the Suns in 4 games, and don't worry, the Utah Jazz can't survive 4 games in front of the Lakers. By then, the Western Conference Finals will be held in advance. When you recover, you can I can teach Kareem Abdul-Jabbar a lesson and say goodbye to his old man. "Gan Guoyang boasted of defeating the Suns in Haikou in four games, but he was not kidding. In the regular season, the Trail Blazers swept the Suns in the same division, even if Sabonis didn't make it. Every position has an advantage against the Suns. So Gan Guoyang has every reason to utter such big words, and Gan Guoyang has always been a man who sticks to his word, because he never boasts anything that he is not sure of. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ ¡°Sabonis was troubled by injuries and should have missed the entire semifinals. However, the Trail Blazers did not send out the inside combination of Gan and Williams, but unexpectedly used Kay Vin Duckworth, this should be his first start this season. It seems that Adelman really doesn¡¯t want to let Gan play center, which will make him fall into the opponent¡¯s double-team. ¡± Got the right to broadcast tonight. The TV station is ESPN, and the commentator is Don Patrick, but his partner is not Bill Walton. Walton has not yet received a contract from ESPN at this time. The person participating in the playoff commentary is a heavy guest invited by ESPN. Former NBA head coach, Hubie Brown. "The Trail Blazers use Duckworth for only one purpose, to strengthen defense and use defense to defeat the Suns." Hubie Brown's explanation was simple and direct. As a tactician and former NBA head coach, he hit the nail on the head.
