(Comrades who read books give me a collection, so let me pass a thousand!) ）

At 17 points, it wasn't the highest score of a half for Gan, who once scored 30 points in the first half against the University of Portland and was never sent on the court again in the second half.

And this time against Georgetown, which is known for its defense, Gan Guoyang, who was good at exploding all his abilities, was almost miraculous in the first half, and in fact, no center has scored more than 15 points in this year's game with Georgetown.

Gan Guoyang did it in half time.

But Gan Guoyang, who was sitting in the locker room, felt extremely tired, as if he had finished the whole game.

In the first half, Gan Guoyang rested for a total of one minute, and in the other 19 minutes, he was entangled with Georgetown's interior line and fought with Ewing all the time.

Although he had an astonishing shooting percentage in the first half, plus two balls he threw and conceded, he only missed three balls in total, and 8 of 11 shots in the half, including five hooks in a row, almost tore Georgetown's interior to shreds.

However, before every shot, he had to fight wildly with Ewing in the low post for the card position, for which he and Ewing each paid two fouls.

His palms were bruised from the dunk, his thighs were bruised, and there were four blood marks on his arms.

The sweat on his body made his clothes wet and dry, and his hair had already curdled into pieces and stuck to his forehead.

"Gan, you're tired, come on!" Bellman looked at Gan Guoyang, who was extremely tired, walked up to him, hugged his head and said to him like a father.

If Thurmond is Gan Guoyang's enlightenment teacher, then Bellman is Gan Guoyang's godfather, and it is precisely because of his strict guidance and planned special training that Gan Guoyang's talent has been well grown and played.

At the same time, he also cares about everything in Gan Guoyang's basketball life like a father, from his diet, physical fitness to injuries, and bears the things that Gan Youwei can't do.

Gan Guoyang also used his performance to repay Bellman's careful cultivation, but when Bellman saw Gan Guoyang so tired, he couldn't help but feel a little heartache in his heart.

He didn't want Gan Guoyang to fight so tired, but there was no way, everyone tried their best, but only Gan Guoyang could withstand the powerful oppression of Georgetown, and he could only let Gan Guoyang fight non-stop on the field.

"Mr. Bellman, please don't let me rest in the second half, I still have to say that when I die, there will be time to rest." Gan Guoyang stood up, looked at Bellman and said.

As he said when he played against Skyrim High School at Palo Alto High School, Gan Guoyang has decided to either win or die on the court, and will not back down.

Bellman didn't know what to say for a moment, while the other man spoke.

"Me too, please don't substitute me." It's Stockton. In the first half, Gan Guoyang also rested for a minute, but Stockton did not rest for a minute, and if he was not there, Gonzaga's attack would be even more unwatchable.

"Mr. Bellman, please keep me starting in the second half, I'm not going to be afraid of anybody on the other side, I'm going to score the goal, for Gan, for the bulldog." It was Matthews, who didn't play well in the first half and didn't score a goal.

"Me too, for Gan, for the pit bull, I'll drain my last drop of blood." It was Anderson, who fell behind in the first half against the opposing striker.

Everyone stood up and poured out their beliefs like a soldier about to go to the battlefield to say goodbye to his family, and Gan Guoyang's lonely battle and fierce fighting spirit in the first half infected everyone.

"We have no way back, win, or go home, let's fight for the bulldogs! go-bulldogs！ Everyone stretched out their hands to unite and shouted the battle horn together in Gan Guoyang's voice.

“go-bulldogs！！”

The second half of the game began quickly, and the 1984 NCAA National 16-8 Western Conference was rekindled.

Georgetown, who dominated the sidelines in the first half, didn't really pull away because they couldn't contain Gonzaga's top scorer Gan Guoyang and let him score 17 points at halftime.

For this reason, Coach Thompson was furious in the locker room, scolding George's interior and Ewing for letting a center score 17 points in the half, and Thompson has no player in his mind who can do it on George's head.

But now the yellow-skinned Chinese has done it, still on the head of his proud disciple Patrick Ewing.

For this reason, Ewing was given the task in the second half to never let Gan Guoyang score more than 5 points.

"Hey Patrick, you've got to get scolded in midfield, I'm sorry, but I have to score." Gan Guoyang pushed each other with Ewing in the three-second zone, and said in his mouth.

“no-ay。” Ewing just said lightly.

This guy is indeed a bit of a bit of a salt and oil, and it doesn't seem that the effect of trying to stimulate him with trash talk will not be too good, Gan Guoyang thought to himself, and at this time Georgetown had already launched an attack.

At the start of the second half, Gunzaga's defense returned to man-to-man, and in this kind of tentative period of the opening, man-to-man is the safest defensive strategy.

But Gonzaga's man-to-man markers have also changed from before, that is, once the opposing forwards have the intention of falling into the low post to single, Matthews and Claremont leave to play around the opponent and prevent the opponent from receiving the ball in the front.

If the opposing point guard dares to pass the ball directly, there is Gan Guoyang in the three-second area to make up for the defense.

Sure enough, the opponent saw Gonzaga use man-marking again, and Reggie Williams decisively ran low to the left, and he used Ewing's cover to go around the baseline to the left waist.

But Claremont squeezed in front of Williams before the opposing point guard passed the ball and blocked Williams' streetball route with his body.

Jackson tried a few times to get the ball unsuccessful, as he had to deal with Stockton's interference.

So he turned the ball to Wingate at the top of the arc.

With this one transfer, Williams suddenly turned around and went straight to the inside, because the ball was transferred, the route of the pass was also changed, and Claremont's front blocking naturally had no effect.

Wingate understood, and directly made a high through ball and passed the ball to Williams!

Williams shook off Claremont and hit the basket directly, but there was Gan Guoyang under the basket.

The two jumped almost at the same time, but Gan Guoyang jumped halfway and found that it was wrong, Williams's jump was not full of strength at all, and he was looking for a cover at all.

Williams wasn't a fool, he wasn't looking for a predator, he passed the ball and passed it to Ewing who was plugged in from behind!

Ewing had previously covered Williams in the high post and saw that he ran to the right side of the waist position and took away Gan Guoyang's defense.

As soon as Gan Guoyang went to make up for Williams, Ewing was naturally vacant, he went straight to the basket, and when he received Williams' pass, he pulled up and dunked!

"Bang!"

It wasn't the sound of the basket, it was the crunch of the cap.

It's Anderson!

Before Ewing could fully jump, he slapped Ewing from the side and held him down!

The ball was flapped directly between Ewing's hands.

Matthews, who was defending on the left periphery, got the ball, and instead of grabbing the ball like he did in the past, he ran wildly with the ball!

As a projection-type shooting guard, he wasn't particularly fast, and the opposing player behind him, the opposing power forward Martin, followed him closely.

Martin was shifting his pace and preparing to reward Matthews with a big hat when he made a layup.

If it was Matthews before, he would slow down and wait for his teammates to follow up and play positional attacks.

But at this time, he is unstoppable!

Jump!

Martin jumped at the same time, and his giant palm slapped at him.

Matthews didn't dodge, he knew that the more he avoided, the easier it was to get capped.

He stood up to Martin, touched Martin's arm with his arm, and forced a layup!

"Beep!" "Bang!"

The referee's whistle blows, and Matthews falls heavily to the ground, Martin fouls and Matthews makes a free throw.

"Well done!" Gan Guoyang, who was keeping up, pulled Matthews up, this is the teammate he wants to see, fearless, even if he is inferior in all aspects, he has to fight to the end.

Matthews made a free throw, hitting both free throws, 27:30, and Gonzaga opened the scoring in the second half.

This is also the 10th point scored by others except Gan Guoyang, and the first 2 points scored by Matthews.

Bellman was also relieved on the sidelines, knowing that it was more than a simple two-pointer, because since the 15th minute of the first half, Gonzaga has not scored a second goal.

In this way, Matthews broke the scoring drought and will definitely relieve the pressure on Gan Guoyang's shoulders.

Moreover, basketball is a five-person sport, and Gan Guoyang alone can survive the first half, but it is almost impossible to continue to rely on Gan Guoyang to beat Georgetown in the second half.

As the rest of Gonzaga's players gradually regained their confidence and feel, and the stamina slipped in the second half, it was a hard-fought tug-of-war.

Turnovers, fouls, forced breakaways and fouls began to flood the playing field.

The two teams are like two red-eyed pit bulldogs, beginning to bite their opponents frantically at all costs, even if they are covered in bruises, they will not let go.

In this situation, Gonzaga is fishing back little by little.

3 points behind, 5 points behind, 2 more points, another goal scored, fouls, turnovers, turnovers, fouls, free throws, free throws, and rush to grab the rebound.

The five-point gap left at half-time became the farthest distance in the world, but even then, Gunzaga had to pull that distance close to the nearest level.

"Beep!" The referee blows the whistle and Gunzaga calls for a timeout.

On the court, Claremont and Williams fell to the floor, tangled like wrestlers for a floor ball.

The Georgetown player made a dribble error, Claremont stealed, but he also slipped himself, and the two started a floor battle, but fortunately, Claremont was quick and took the lead to free up his hand and called a timeout.

With one minute to go before the end of the game, Gunzaga was only one point behind Georgetown at 44:45, and Claremont's steal and timeout could be said to be worth a thousand dollars.

'There's a minute left and we have to score it, don't delay it, as soon as possible, as soon as possible, we can defend against one.' Bellman's nerves were also extremely tense at this time, and he spoke much faster than usual, but his voice was a little hoarse.

Bellman finished his tactics and the timeout was up.

A crucial goal, at this time both sides have reached the limit of physical strength, everyone is out of breath on the field, but there is no expression of flinching.

It's going to be a mental battle.

"Beep!"

Stockton served on the sidelines, but George's defense was still tight, and Gonzaga's players no longer had the strength to run quickly to shake off the defense, and it was almost five seconds!

Gan Guoyang immediately stepped forward to answer, and Stockton passed the ball to Gan Guoyang.

But the other side double bag clip! Ewing and Jackson! Gan Guoyang's ball has not yet been stabilized, and the three of them grabbed together!

However, no one held the ball, the ball flew to the right boundary, and the ball was about to go out of bounds, and I don't know who touched the ball.

Anderson rushed out, he didn't know who was out of bounds, but he knew the ball had to be held firmly.

A fish leaped into the air, and the 6-foot-9 Anderson flew out of bounds with the ball and rushed to the technical statistics bench.

Before he hit the ground, he threw the basketball in his arms in the direction of his teammate, and Stockton got the ball!

"Beep!" The referee's whistle blew, Stockton called another timeout, the previous tactical set-up had been disrupted, and it was not known how Anderson was doing, whether he was injured or not.

When Gan Guoyang pulled Anderson up from under the overturned desk and chair of the technical statistics seat, he found that Anderson's expression was quite painful.

"What's wrong Anderson? Hurt? ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that my arm hurts a little." Anderson's expression was by no means a little painful.

Gan Guoyang helped Anderson to the bench, and the team doctor did a simple examination for him, and found that his back shoulder blade should have been hit, and I don't know if there is a problem with the bone or soft tissue, but the muscle must have been bruised, because there was a large swollen lump in the back.

"Anderson, you'll get off the court later, let Danny Roy play, you're doing great, you're doing great." Bellman said Anderson's several frontcourt rebounds and blocks in the second half were crucial.

"No, coach, please put me on the field, please." Anderson said.

"Anderson, you're injured and there's a long way to go, you can't hurt yourself for a fight." Gan Guoyang comforted.

"No, Gan! I have no way out. I'm not you, I'm not John, this is my last chance, my last chance. I don't know how to play professional basketball, and my dad has decided that I will be a lawyer, and maybe I won't be able to stand on the basketball court again. I don't want to leave regrets, I want to keep going, go a little longer, even if I die, I'm going to die on the field. ”

Anderson's words touched the hearts of all the players, and for most of Gonzaga's players, they didn't have the opportunity to play professional basketball, and reaching the NCAA round 16 was perhaps the best moment of their basketball career.

No one wants to leave, no one wants to give up this last chance.

Gan Guoyang felt that a stream of tears was about to burst out of his eyes, in fact, when Anderson asked him that question that night, he should have understood that Anderson's basketball career was really short.

This is really his last chance, if he loses, basketball will end his life, he can only play challenge matches with others on the field court, but he will never return to the real battlefield.

"Then let's fight together until the last moment." Gan Guoyang held Anderson's hand tightly, and everyone held it, for the last glory of their basketball career.

"Beep!"

The timeout ends and the game continues.

This time, Bellman had all the receivers stand in a line, so that Georgetown could not be wrapped in a close-up fit, and after the referee's whistle everyone scattered to execute the tactics.

Matthews served, and Stockton shook off Jackson's entanglement and received the ball smoothly.

Gan Guoyang blocked Stockton in the high post, and then went straight down.

But Ewing did not let go of Gan Guoyang to make up for Stockton, but kept an eye on Gan Guoyang, leaving a big vacancy for Stockton.

Thompson was betting, he bet that Stockton wouldn't be able to shoot, because Stockton's shooting percentage was horribly low today, and he scored a total of four points in the first half, all of which were scored in the opening game.

But Stockton had to vote, he had no choice but to watch everyone else die.

Stockton shot! Jackson still pounced on him and interfered with him.

"Phew!" The ball hit the neck of the basket and didn't go in.

Gan Guoyang wanted to grab the rebound in the front court, but Ewing stuck him, and Gan Guoyang couldn't jump at all.

But Anderson was missed by Georgetown, and Anderson, who only had one arm to use.

He endured the severe pain and jumped high and touched the basketball in the air, but he couldn't catch the ball, so he flicked in the direction of Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang pulled Ewing over, and the referee didn't blow the foul at this time, and grabbed this priceless frontcourt rebound!

"Bang!" Gan Guoyang used a dunk to give Gonzaga his first lead after the first shot of the opening game! 46：45！

"Beep!" Georgetown immediately called a timeout.

"Yes!" Gan Guoyang hugged Anderson excitedly, and the entire Gonzaga bench was boiling.

Anderson extended his life on the basketball court with a priceless frontcourt rebound.

However, the game is not over yet, and there are still 20 seconds left, which is enough for Georgetown to play an attack.

At the end of the timeout, Bellman stressed the need to be careful with the opponent's pick-and-roll and flanks, and instructed Gan Guoyang to keep an eye on Ewing.

Georgetown served, and after successive transfers, they couldn't break through Gonzaga's defense, and still relied on Jackson and Ewing's blocking to tear a small hole.

Ewing got the ball at 45 degrees, Gan Guoyang stuck to the defense, Ewing turned his back and threw a backward jumper!

"Huh!" The ball bounced twice between the baskets and still fell into the net. 46：47。

And Gan Guoyang has done his best to interfere.

The tide of the game was reversed again with five seconds remaining, and Gonzaga had no timeout.

The Georgetown players simply didn't have time to celebrate, they still needed to hold on for five seconds.

Stockton got the supplication, dodged Jackson's steal and bypassed Ewing.

He couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, because time was running out!

Gan Guoyang made the last cover for him at the top of the arc!

Stockton shoots from 25 feet!

Final Blow!

"Huh!"

The cheers drowned out everything.

It was as if we had traveled back in time to 1997, when Stockton faced Charles Barkley and sent the Jazz to the Finals with a decisive three-pointer.

But history at this moment, 1984, has been changed.

Stockton may not have another chance to throw in that three-pointer in 1997.

But if he knew, he would never regret it.

Because he used a shot that changed history to continue the basketball life of all pit bulldogs.

It was perhaps the most glorious moment of their basketball life.

In the 1984 NCAA National West Division 16-8 game, Stockton defeated Georgetown.
