    Gan Guoyang once said to a reporter, "Among the yellow players in the NBA, my dunks are the best."  This sentence is of course a joke, because he is the only yellow player in the entire NBA. As long as he can dunk, his dunk is the best.  But Gan Guoyang is also confident enough in his dunks. Among centers, Gan Guoyang's dunks are rare and elegant. This is due to his above-average jumping and his long limbs.  When describing Gan Guoyang¡¯s dunks, many fans like to call him ¡°Big-Dr.  Long arms and big hands.  When he jumps into the air, stretches out his arms and dunks the ball into the basket, his freehand and elegance can always make all fans enchanted, and every time he succeeds in dunking, Gan Guoyang will be like Dr. J, like everything.  There was no ordinary backcourt defense, and his calmness and calmness impressed many people.  Gan Guoyang's alley-oop shot took off sufficiently and was high enough, but his body was still some distance away from the basket. Therefore, after picking up the ball with one hand in the air, Gan Guoyang completely straightened his long arm and dunked the ball in.  At the moment of hitting the basket, the arm is almost vertical to the body, so it feels like the ball is extremely powerful, as if the arm was swung directly from top to bottom.  The audience at the scene was suddenly released from the previous suppressed state, which also gave the Trail Blazers players a huge boost. Adelman once again resisted the urge to call a timeout and allowed the game to continue.  But Magic Johnson was ruthless towards his enemies. Such a dunk could not shake his determination. Soon during the attack, Magic once again broke through and succeeded in a layup. This time, he dribbled the ball like a butterfly through flowers, combined with his strong  With his body and good rhythm, he squeezed into the inside and scored under the defensive interference of Gan Guoyang. Because Gan Guoyang had already committed a foul before, he did not dare to attack the ball with all his strength, fearing that he would be called for another foul and would have to take a rest.  17:5, the Trail Blazers are still lagging behind the Lakers by a big score. It seems that it is really difficult for them to defend Magic, because it is basically difficult to double-team Magic. The consequence of double-teaming Magic is basically allowing other people to score.  Moreover, the defensive magician must misplace the defense and let the team's shooting guard or small forward fight. In the past, the Trail Blazers used Drexler to defend alone, but now Adelman has begun to use their outside lock Kexi.  Kexi has made rapid progress in recent years. He is physically strong and has a positive attitude. The key is to train diligently and work hard on the court. He also has very good skills on the offensive end. However, he is still not good enough when facing the rampaging Magic. Johnson is almost  You can play with him anytime, anywhere.  But Magic also has some small flaws. He is the same as his old rival Larry Bird, that is, his defensive ability is far less outstanding than his offensive ability. In particular, Magic's height has some disadvantages on the offensive end and when grabbing rebounds.  has an advantage, but it becomes a disadvantage when facing the opponent's smaller defenders on the defensive end. He often has to rely on Byron Scott or Michael Cooper to assist him, but now, Terry Porter and Drake in the backcourt  Sler, he must be keeping an eye on one, but after Magic scored, Terry Porter immediately took the ball and ran across the half court.  Gan Guoyang stepped forward and set a pick-and-roll for Porter. Porter used this to bypass the Magician and fired directly from outside the 45-degree three-point line. The ball went straight to the basket like a cannonball.  "Shua!" The ball hit the net hollowly, a three-pointer!  At 17:8, the Trail Blazers immediately recovered 3 points.  This is the way Terry Porter is best at scoring, chasing butts and hitting three-pointers during the transition between offense and defense. Gan Guoyang's high-quality screens are crucial, and they can always create a small but effective shooting space for Porter.  One move is very effective when the Blazers are chasing points or expanding their advantage.  After the goal, Gan Guoyang and Porter high-fived. During the playoffs, the entire Trail Blazers have become even better. They have successfully adjusted from the regular season rhythm and entered the playoff team rhythm.  Subsequently, the Magic began to gradually reduce the proportion of his own offense and began to organize the team's offense more. The two players James Worthy and Byron Scott began to show their excellent offensive skills. Due to misalignment, Drake  Sler had to defend Worthy. Worthy was the last small forward who played inside in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The strongest players in this style in the early 1980s were Dantley and Arthur.  Qualley and Bernard King are aging and injured, and have begun to gradually withdraw from the highest stage of the NBA.  At the same time, Worthy's style of play has been gradually eliminated with the popularization and development of three-point tactics. Mid- and long-range shooting is becoming more and more important for small forwards. Small forwards like them who replace the inside for low-post bombing can no longer keep up.  The trend of the times.  But any team that dares to ignore Worthy in a game will pay the price.After the Lakers' offensive power was handed over to Worthy, Worthy succeeded in three consecutive attacks. Drexler's height and wingspan were not enough to contain Worthy. After all, with Worthy's low-post offensive ability, even Kevin  -McHale can't control it either.  However, Drexler can get back the points he loses on defense. A major flaw of the current Lakers lineup is that once the outside line is picked and rolled by the opponent, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar can no longer cover the inside line.  Well, Drexler just grabbed the Lakers' sore foot and continuously hit the inside, either dunking directly or causing fouls and free throws.  The two sides can be said to be inseparable, and the offensive efficiency of both sides is quite high. However, the Trail Blazers can always score one or two points more than the Lakers within three or four rounds. As a result, the point difference shrinks little by little, and this  One or two points were attributed to Gan Guoyang.  If Kareem Abdul-Jabbar were five years younger, he could still compete with Gan Guoyang on the offensive end, but he is already 42 years old this year, which is really too old for a basketball player, especially in the playoffs.  In an intense game, it is remarkable that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar can keep up with the offensive and defensive pace on both sides of the court, but it is already difficult for him to make a sustained contribution. Sabonis has nothing to do but go all out to fight Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.  Sabonis missed the Western Conference semifinals. He made a comeback in the Western Conference finals. However, in the first game against the Lakers, he did not make any contribution on the offensive end. After all, his hands were a bit raw, but on the defensive end, he really used all his skills in playing, playing and singing.  Go up and try your best to stop Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's old bones almost fell apart under the intrusion of the Soviet giant bear.  On the contrary, the Lakers' AC Green felt more and more pressure in the defense. In the first half, Gan Guoyang did not attack with all his strength.  With every hit, he has begun to adapt to the Lakers' double-teaming. Even if three people rush forward at the same time, Gan Guoyang can still shoot the ball over their heads without expression.  Like his dunk, Gan Guoyang's shooting is also "the best among yellow players in the NBA."  After years of hard training, his shooting has reached one of the highest levels in the league, and his release point is extremely high and the probability of being blocked is very low, so he does not even need to lean back, but uses a quick turn to directly lift the ball  He reaches the highest point and then takes the shot. Whether he scores or not basically depends on his own touch, and Gan Guoyang is another player with a terrible touch when he explodes.  When Gan Guoyang starts to hit consecutive mid-range shots, he is like a heavy truck, accelerating very slowly at first, but when his speed increases little by little and reaches the highest speed, it will be difficult for you to stop him.  "Gan held the ball in the high post. He was afraid of being double-teamed so he didn't go to the low post easily. He pushed Green away with his back, turned over and shot a 20-foot difficult shot! The ball went in. Wow, I don't think I have anything to say."  Shaunley really has nothing to say. Gan Guoyang has hit Green in the same position and hit 4 consecutive jump shots. At this time, the score between the two sides has become 51:55. The Lakers only led by 4 at the end of the second quarter.  separated.  Just like this, the Trail Blazers are catching up step by step. Adelman firmly believes that when dealing with a team like the Lakers, they must not close their eyes and play fast breaks to chase points just because the score is behind. This will only make the game enter the rhythm that the Lakers like. The result is  You run fast, the Laker runs faster, and you can never catch up with him.  "To deal with the Lakers, we must play steadily and step by step, consume the opponent's advantages bit by bit, and then give the opponent the most fatal blow at the right time.  And soon, the third quarter of the game is coming, and everyone can feel that the king of the third quarter is already gearing up to practice.
