    On May 18, 1989, there were still two days left before the start of the Western Conference Finals. At this time, the Eastern Conference Semifinals had also been settled. The Detroit Pistons, like the Lakers and Trail Blazers, swept their opponents Milwaukee Heroes in four games.  The Milwaukee Bucks entered the Eastern Conference Finals with unparalleled momentum, and their opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals was the same as in 1988, the Chicago Bulls.  If the Trail Blazers, Lakers, and Pistons entered the conference finals as expected, then the Bulls reaching the Eastern Conference finals for the second consecutive year has a touch of magic. Of course, these magics come from Michael Jordan.  The winning goal not only led the Bulls to miraculously advance to the next round, but also gave him sufficient confidence.  Facing the New York Knicks led by Ewing in the conference finals, the Bulls trailed in the first game until they scored an 8-0 run in the fourth quarter, led by Jordan, forcing the game into overtime.  In the previous games, Jordan was always playing and passing the ball to his teammates. He provided 12 assists during the game. In overtime, he finally turned on the killing mode and scored 9 points in a row, helping the Bulls win 120:109.  , came out on top.  Ewing was defended by Bulls veteran Bill Cartwright, a former senior on the team, and only scored 22 points on 9-for-20 shooting.  In the second game, the Knicks, who could no longer lose, defeated the Bulls in Madison Square Garden. They defeated their opponents with a score of 115:97, making people think that the Knicks lost the first game just because of carelessness, while the Bulls won because of carelessness.  Because of luck.  But in the third game, the Bulls completely made the Knicks understand that their victory was not luck.  At the Chicago United Center, in order to counter Mark Jackson's provocation, Jordan scored 40 points, 15 rebounds, 9 assists and 6 steals. He was only one assist away from getting another triple-double. The Bulls also bloodbathed the New York Knicks 111:88.  Team.  Of course, Jordan was slightly injured during the game, but he survived. The Knicks coach expressed doubts about Jordan's injury after the game, and now he is in trouble.  In the fourth game, in order to prove to the Knicks coach whether he was injured or not, Jordan rushed into the Knicks' interior and won 28 free throw opportunities. He scored 47 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists in the game. The core of the Knicks  Ewing was completely beaten by Cartwright, allowing Cartwright to score 21 points, but he only scored 10 points!  There is no way the Knicks can win such a game. 93:106. The Knicks went from being favored before the game to falling behind 1:3 and facing the danger of being eliminated.  At this time, Ewing's condition was long overdue. The Knicks, who were forced into a desperate situation, burst out their last energy after returning to their home court. Ewing finally broke through Cartwright's defense and scored 32 points.  11 rebounds and 4 blocks helped the Knicks win 121:114, delaying death.  However, Ewing's condition came too late. By the sixth game, when he returned to the United Center in Chicago, Jordan would no longer give the Knicks any chance. Jordan scored 40 points for the third time in the series, unless he himself was not in good condition.  , otherwise there is no one in the Knicks who can even slightly restrict Jordan. Although the Knicks tried their best to drag the series into Game 7 and return to New York, in the end they still lost by two points, 111:113.  Watch the Chicago Bulls reach the Eastern Conference Finals.  The Bulls also created quite a miracle, reaching the conference finals as the sixth overall pick in the Eastern Conference. The last time they accomplished this feat was the Houston Rockets in 1981, when the Rockets reached the finals with the sixth overall pick in the Western Conference.  Ultimately defeated.  In this way, the matchups in the 1989 playoff conference finals were exactly the same as in 1988, with the Pistons facing the Bulls and the Lakers facing the Trail Blazers.  The defending champion Pistons are better than last year, the Bulls' Jordan is more experienced in the playoffs, the Lakers are burning their subsequent energy, and the Trail Blazers are smug. Although this round of duel is the same as last year, it may have different sparks.  .  At this time, before the start of the finals, the four teams were making careful preparations. In Portland, Gan Guoyang was conducting high-intensity training as usual. However, on the afternoon of the 18th, Adelman asked all players to  Have a holiday and take half a day off.  Gan Guoyang originally wanted to stay and practice more, but Adelman requested that today's training content be rest and relaxation. He must strictly follow the requirements to complete the training content, and no other training is allowed.  Gan Guoyang had no choice but to go to the suburbs of Portland. However, because Wang Fuxi was working in the hospital today, he would not be driven home until after get off work. The Feng brother, Gan Guoyang, had given them leave, and Gan Guoyang did not need it. They follow every training session, and they are usually only needed on game days to block some pesky reporters.  So Gan Guoyang found that he could not drive to the suburbs for a walk. After some hesitation, Gan Guoyang decided to take a bus to the beach in the suburbs to relax.  Like other big cities in the United States, Portland has a developed rail transit system. Their subways and overground light rail are centered around the Willamette River.Around the city, Gan Guoyang needs to take the light rail across the Willamette River and go directly to the west to the seaside, which is also very close to his home, so he can run home directly.  However, when Gan Guoyang came out of the Jewish Community Training Center and got on the subway at the nearest subway station, he realized what a wrong decision he had made. You must know that Gan Guoyang usually runs to the training center. In this way, he not only  He can exercise and get close to the city of Portland, so he often changes his running route.  But when he runs to the training hall for training, it is always at four or five o'clock in the morning. At this time, the whole of Portland is often still sleeping, and not many people know that this city's sports hero is sweating on the road.  And now, it is noon, the time to go to and from get off work, and there are still quite a lot of people on the streets on the subway. Although the population density in cities such as Seattle and Portland in the western United States is not high, unlike China, where people are everywhere, the subway  The traffic at the station is still very large.  Originally, people were coming and going in a hurry, looking down at the road under their feet, but I don¡¯t know who was the first to spot Gan Guoyang looking around in the subway station, and shouted "Gump!" Now it¡¯s over, everything is over.  Everyone raised their heads. The middle-aged office workers were okay and just stood watching from a distance, but it could be seen from the expressions on their faces that they were hesitant to come forward to shake hands and take a photo with Gan Guoyang.  Some young people couldn't restrain their excitement and rushed towards Gan Guoyang. One of the beautiful girls hugged Gan Guoyang tightly. She looked at Gan Guoyang with eyes that made her like him more and more, and then she endured it.  Unable to hold back, he jumped up and kissed Gan Guoyang hard on the face.  At this time, Gan Guoyang was still a little confused. He had not taken the subway very often since he came to Portland. After coming in, he was still looking around to see where there was a map. Then he heard a shout and everyone turned towards him.  As he rushed over, a girl closest to him came up and gave him a bite.  Now he was in trouble. Gan Guoyang looked at the people around him. It seemed that all the men and women wanted to kiss him. At this time, he was the Tang Monk in the eyes of monsters.  The girl who kissed him still refused to let go and wanted someone to take a photo with them. Now the others were not happy and stepped forward one after another to express that Gan Guoyang could not let her have it all to herself. Some of them even took it out of their briefcase.  I got paper and pen and asked for Gan Guoyang's signature.  Of course, Gan Guoyang was willing to sign autographs, but more and more people gathered around him, which began to affect the traffic in the subway station. At this time, the policeman near the subway station noticed something strange, and then he saw someone standing out among the crowd.  Gan Guoyang, knowing what happened, stepped forward to push the crowd away, then gradually dispersed the crowd, and called nearby police to support and maintain order at the scene.  "Mr. Gan, you shouldn't come to a place like this. It will bring chaos to our order." At this time, the police began to escort Gan Guoyang out of the subway station and "taught" Gan Guoyang a lesson.  At this time, Gan Guoyang was like a child who had made a mistake. He could only nod his head and left the crowded and slightly chaotic crowd under the escort of the police. Finally, the police took Gan Guoyang into a police car. This was the second time that Gan Guoyang was taken into a police car.  , he was arrested last time, but this time it was different. The policeman decided to take Gan Guoyang to the beach in a police car.  ¡°I have the responsibility to maintain order here, and sending you to your destination is the best position for order.¡± The policeman said confidently.  However, Gan Guoyang also lost his mind to go to the beach to relax, so he still asked the policeman to send him home directly.  After arriving at his home, Gan Guoyang got out of the car and said thank you to the policeman, but the policeman took out a notebook from his arms and handed it to Gan Guoyang and said to him: "My son is your fan, and I have been unable to accompany him because I am too busy with work."  He hopes you can give him an autograph to make him happy. "It turns out that the policeman also wanted Gan Guoyang's autograph, so Gan Guoyang naturally agreed and signed it for him seriously.  When Gan Guoyang returned home, he found that what he had just experienced was even more tiring than training.  But when he turned on the TV, Gan Guoyang was even more shocked. The incident of causing a riot in the subway station was broadcast on TV so quickly. The photo happened to be taken by someone with a camera, and it happened to capture Gan Guoyang being raped by a woman.  Pictures of fans kissing each other.  "It's over, it's over, why did you take this picture! It's over, over, over!" When Gan Guoyang thought that Wang Fuxi would see it, he might get "livid". He quickly turned off the TV and called Wang Fuxi at the same time.  , telling her not to pick him up.  Not long after, Wang Fuxi came back from get off work. She was still holding a newspaper in her hand. Gan Guoyang saw it and thought, "It's broken, it's already in the newspaper! How the hell is it so fast!" Wang Fuxi walked to Gan Guoyang with it. countryBeside him, Gan Guoyang felt a little nervous and said, "You're back" Wang Fuxi didn't say anything, but stepped forward and kissed Gan Guoyang gently. This made Gan Guoyang wonder, could it be that the newspaper published  Isn't the photo of him being kissed?  At this time, Wang Fuxi handed the newspaper to Gan Guoyang. Gan Guoyang glanced at it and saw the headline: "NBA officially announced that Sonny Gan won the 1988-1989 regular season MVP!"
