    At 6:40 Pacific time, the finals are about to open at the Memorial Coliseum. More than 20,000 seats are packed. The arena, which was empty and quiet three hours ago, is now full of people.  Moreover, the lineup of fans sitting in the front row tonight can be described as luxurious, including the former head coach of the Trail Blazers Jack Ramsey, Gan Guoyang's friend pop star Michael Jackson, the great Hollywood director Steven Spielberg, and the famous Hollywood screenwriter  Robert Zemeckis, Microsoft tycoon Paul Allen, former NBA superstars Wilt Chamberlain and Nate Thurmond, Nike boss Paul Fairmont and other well-known figures were all sitting in the audience.  You know, this is not Los Angeles, there is no Hollywood, this is Portland, the northwestmost city in the United States. The reason why these people can come here is very simple, because of Gan Guoyang, because Gan Guoyang is likely to be crowned tonight.  Michael Jackson has canceled many activities and stayed on the sidelines tonight to watch the game. Spielberg and Gan Guoyang are cooperating to invest in a game project. Paul Allen has reached a preliminary agreement with Weinberg about next season.  He'll have the trailblazers, Zemeckis and Jimmy Kam, whose Roger Rabbit Framed film just won two Oscars in May, and Ramsey, Chamberlain and Thurmond, who are all going to be there anyway.  Come and witness Gan Guoyang win the championship in Portland.  In addition, Wang Fuxi, Gan Youwei, Gan Youtang, Gan Bingguang, Qian Hui, Gan Guohui, Shui Miao, Feng Peiyu, Feng Guangyao, Wu Zhiwen and other relatives and friends of Gan Guoyang were also present, waiting for the exciting moment.  .  By this time, Gan Guoyang had returned to the locker room, sitting down with his teammates to make final preparations for the game.  In the team's locker room, Gan Guoyang is always the most active one, and he is often the one who completes the team's mobilization, but tonight he was a little quiet, sitting there, wondering what he was thinking.  Drexler sat next to Gan Guoyang and read a book. This is one of his habits. He would relax by reading before important games. Tonight he picked a book called "The Sound and the Fury", Faulkner's masterpiece.  This was Drexler's favorite book because Drexler was a Southerner.  But obviously, Drexler chose the wrong book. His mood was just like the title of the book, noisy and turbulent, and he couldn't read it at all. He turned his head to look at Gan Guoyang and found that Gan Guoyang was in a daze.  And Jerome Cossey walked over and over in the locker room, talking endlessly. Cossey was the most excited person on the team, shaking his head like a roly-poly.  Sabonis, like Gan Guoyang, sat there in a daze. After coming to the Trail Blazers, Sabonis was taken care of by Gan Guoyang and continued to learn from Gan Guoyang, even in daze.  "What are you thinking about, Gan?" Drexler finally couldn't help asking Gan Guoyang beside him. He was not used to Gan Guoyang's silence.  Gan Guoyang looked at Drexler, smiled and said: "I was thinking, let's go to Washington to meet Mr. Bush, what should I say to him." Every NBA championship will be received by the President of the United States at the White House.  Of course, the Trail Blazers winning the championship is no exception. The problem is that Gan Guoyang is Chinese, and the United States is now imposing sanctions on China.  Drexler thought for a while and realized that this was really a problem. Then he looked at Sabonis sitting opposite. This guy was a Soviet. He thought Sabonis was probably thinking about a similar problem.  Soon, Culp poked his head in from outside the locker room, waved to everyone, and told everyone that it was time to play.  Gan Guoyang was the first to stand up and walked out of the door. Others also walked out of the locker room. Gan Guoyang didn't say anything. He opened his arms and waved to everyone, and everyone gathered around him consciously.  "My friends, teammates, comrades, brothers, 231 days and nights, 99 tough games, footprints all over the United States, every day spent on planes and hotels, tons of sweat in the training gym  , the pain that tortures us, the voices that accuse and criticize us, tonight, our 100th game, must all, all, all become our strength, leaving nothing behind, the championship, only the championship, all of this  Only then does everything have value. I don¡¯t know how brilliant our future will be. I only know that tonight will be our most glorious moment. Don¡¯t miss it, my brothers!  ! ¡± ¡°YES! COME-ON! ¡± Everything is for this moment. For many NBA players, there may not be such an opportunity in their entire career. Gan Guoyang does not want to have any regrets, nor do all the Trail Blazers players.  No matter what they were thinking before or what they were thinking after the game, now they have only one goal, the championship.  When the entire Trail Blazers team entered the stadium, the atmosphere in the Memorial Stadium reached its peak.The climax, with cheers like waves, made the Trail Blazers' opponents, the Detroit Pistons, look like a small sampan on the sea in the wind and rain, and might be swallowed by the huge waves at any time.  Chuck Daly¡¯s hair is still so meticulous, his suit is straight, and he is sitting on the sidelines feeling calm, but this outstanding coach also knows in his heart that it may be really difficult for the Pistons to survive this game.  The Pistons were not so united before the game, and there were some small cracks within the team. Such small cracks would not matter on normal days, but in the finals, away games, and on the verge of going home to fish, every little crack would matter.  It means the collapse of the castle.  Winning the championship in 1988 gave this team more confidence, but also less tenacity. As everyone knows, the most valuable thing about the Detroit Pistons is their perseverance, but their preparation for the fourth game was insufficient.  Putting them into a desperate situation, the trend of the finals was completely changed. Even if they fought hard to win the fifth game, they could not save the building from falling.  The game started under referee Joe Crawford's call. The Pistons competed with the Trail Blazers with all their strength. The game between the two sides was extremely fierce. The Pistons even took the lead in the first half. Bill Laimbeer's three-pointer scored in the first half.  After four games, it was as if something suddenly clicked and he could fire off every game.  Until the end of the third quarter, the Trail Blazers were still lagging behind. Gan Guoyang suddenly exerted his strength and hit three three-pointers in a row, two at the top of the arc and one at 45 degrees on the left, which are his favorite positions.  Gan Guoyang's three-pointer was like a sharp sword, tearing open the Pistons' defense line at once, not only their physical defense line, but also their psychological defense line. The Trail Blazers finally began to take advantage.  At this time, the fans at the Memorial Stadium finally began to relax, and the sound began to get louder and louder. The Detroiters were still struggling to hold on. Isiah Thomas broke into the Trail Blazers' interior again and again, using  His thin body hit the basket; Joe Dumars tried his best on defense, Dennis Rodman kept flying to save the ball, and Laimbeer had no time to do tricks.  "However, the Trail Blazers will no longer have any mercy on them. On the road to the championship, either you die or I live. The only stumbling block is to completely trample them under their feet.  "Gan, pick and roll with Drexler, receive the pass, turn around! What a beautiful turn, successful layup! Gan's layup! Rip-City!" At the critical moment of the fourth quarter, Gan Guoyang and Drake  Sler cooperated with a pick-and-roll, and after receiving the ball, he turned his back very smoothly, passed Laimbeer cleanly, and succeeded in an easy layup. Shaunley could not suppress the excitement in his heart and shouted rip-city, because of this ball  After scoring, the score difference between the two sides came to 10 points, and the Trail Blazers already had the victory firmly in their hands.  After scoring the goal, Gan Guoyang clenched his fist vigorously. There was little time left for the Pistons, and the Trail Blazers were getting closer and closer to the championship.  Gan Guoyang could feel that every cell in his body was trembling and every pore was shrinking. The more time passed, the stronger his feeling became.  "10, 9, 8, 7" At the last moment of the game, the entire audience began to count down, and everyone on the sideline was ready to move. The Pistons had given up defense, and the Trail Blazers had also begun to give up offense. Gan Guoyang felt that his  Emotions are overflowing to the brink.  "Game-over! Game-over! The-portland-Trailblazers-have-won-the-World-Championship-in-1989!" Bill Shaunley's voice accompanied the sound of the buzzer at the end of the game and spread throughout the room.  All of Portland, all of Oregon.  The sky full of confetti floated down from the ceiling of the Memorial Stadium, and all the spectators rushed out from under the auditorium, rushing towards the Blazers players and towards Gan Guoyang. Everything was just like the scene when they won the championship in 1977.  Gan Guoyang stood in the center of the field, surrounded by Portland fans. They crowded around Gan Guoyang and shouted "Sunny-Gump!" At this time, Gan Guoyang was worshiped like a sun god. He played in six games  Lee averaged 34.6 points, 15.6 rebounds, 4.3 blocks, 3.3 assists and 3.1 steals per game. He is the team's well-deserved MVP.  At this time, Gan Guoyang's tears could no longer be suppressed and burst out of his eyes. He tried hard to control himself and gritted his teeth not to cry in the stadium.  At this time, Feng Peiyu and Feng Guangyao pushed through the crowd and rushed over. Together with the Blazers staff, they brought Gan Guoyang back to the player tunnel. In the player tunnel, everyone was congratulating each other.  Gan Guoyang returned to the locker room and found that his father Gan Youwei and his fianc¨¦e Wang Fuxi were already waiting for him there. Gan Guoyang finally couldn't control himself and hugged the two of them, letting tears run down his face.  A man doesn¡¯t shed tears lightly, but it¡¯s just not the time to feel sad.  Gan Guoyang's tears at this time were not because of sadness. For today, he has put in hard work, sweat, tears, and suffered criticism andThe comments, inner struggles and entanglements are all condensed in these tears.  Soon, Gan Guoyang wiped away his tears, opened champagne with all his teammates, and reveled in the locker room. This was a night that belonged to the Trail Blazers, and this was a night that belonged to Gan Guoyang.  He is finally about to start his golden age.  (Complete book)
