The first point of the Trail Blazers came out surprisingly fast.

Although the old Abdul-Jabbar is no longer jumping up, he still relied on the advantage of height and reach to touch the ball first, and dialed the ball to Byron Scott, Scott just wanted to pass the ball to the magician, Gan Guoyang suddenly broke the ball, and dribbled all the way to the basket.

"Gan's steal! Slam dunk! Gan scored the first point for the Trail Blazers, which was a good start. Most of the Lakers' players had already run to the frontcourt to set up a lineup and prepare to attack, and they didn't have time to return to the defense at all, so they could only watch Gan Guoyang easily dunk and score. 2：0。

This is obviously a signal from Gan Guoyang to the Lakers that he must give his best in this game.

“Post！ Post！ In the first three games of the series, the tactics of using Abdul-Jabbar to open the situation did not work well, the Trail Blazers' interior defense was too strong, and the aging Abdul-Jabbar often did not have the opportunity to play the power of his hook, so Riley decided to put the first tactical focus on Worthy.

"Worthy was in the low post on the left, Johnson was passing, it was Gan defending him, and Worthy turned around...... The shot was covered by Gan! Gan controls the ball! ”

Worthy was too confident in his speed.

Of all the small forwards who excel at attacking in the low post, Mark Aquili is known for his tonnage and power, Dantley is known for his rhythm, feints and fouls, Bernard King is very good at shooting, and Worthy relies on his extremely fast turning speed and long reach to make opponents unable to defend.

In the confrontation with the Celtics, Kevin McHale, who has always been famous for his excellent arm span, is often blown up when defending Worthy, the reason is that McHale's speed is a beat slower than Worthy, so when Worthy sees Gan Guoyang coming to defend himself, he is still very confident in his speed, even if he was a little ugly by Gan Guoyang in the first two games.

And this time, when Gan Guoyang slapped his turnaround jumper and covered it, Worthy understood that this big guy was not losing to him in terms of speed at all.

“Run，Run，Run！” Gan Guoyang shouted, preparing a super long pass to launch a fast attack, but after he observed it, he found that no one was running forward at all, at this time Gan Guoyang reacted, the team's two sharpest knives were not on the field, Mark Bryant had no sense of speed at all, and Paxson was too slow, and Potter was still there waiting to pick up Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang had no choice but to hand over the ball to Porter and let him organize the positional offense, and the Trail Blazers were destined to grind defense and position with the Lakers in this game.

"You don't want to score on my head unless you're going to shoot from the outside." Gan Guoyang did not forget to talk to Worthy, Worthy's shooting is surprisingly poor among small forwards, his shooting percentage will plummet if he is more than 15 feet, although he is a small forward in the early days of the NBA, he is a pure interior player in scoring, only relying on fast break and low post back to score.

Woxi was poked in the sore spot by Gan Guoyang, in fact, his outside shooting level has improved a lot in the past two years, but his shooting talent is limited, no matter how he practices, he is still below the average line.

"Porter took the ball and pushed it across the halfcourt, straight for an 18-foot jumper! Hit! Very decisive jump shot, the Lakers haven't reacted yet, the ball has already gone in. "Gan Guoyang is still arguing with Worthy, over there Porter has already hit a direct mid-range jumper, due to the lack of the main lineup, Adelman gave Porter enough right to fire, like this chasing pull-up jump shot, Porter is very good at it.

At this time, Jim Paxson had some pushing and shoving with Byron Scott under the basket, and when Porter jumped to shoot just after getting the ball, both of them rushed to the basket to get the rebound, and both sides moved a little big, and as a result, there were some verbal altercations.

Paxson has always had a good temper, but tonight he didn't seem ready to maintain his image, and he and Scott began to exchange trash talk, and the referee hurriedly whistled to stop the two, and the game started with a bit of gunpowder.

"The Trail Blazers played very aggressively after the opening, steals, dunks, blocks, pull-up jump shots, squabbles under the basket, and it looked like they were going to take a gamble."

"That's right, the Trail Blazers must have an advantage at the beginning of this game, if they fall too far behind on the Lakers' home court, coupled with the absence of the main team, it will be very difficult for the Trail Blazers to chase points when they are behind, after all, their lineup does not have the ability to break fast." Tom Heinsohn understands the Trail Blazers' intentions and wants to quickly establish an advantage, and then use defense, positional warfare, and a tug-of-war with the Lakers to try to get through this game.

In the end, the referee gave each of the two a technical foul, the Lakers' ball.

"The Magic hands the ball to Worthy again, and Worthy jumpers step back! Three do not stick! Mark Bryant got the rebound! Worthy's shot went straight across the bridge. ”

The Lakers continued to insist on playing Worthy, this time Worthy did not directly in the low post, but went around the right side from the bottom line, Johnson's ball just passed, Worthy received the ball and turned over directly to the jumper, but he was still interfered with by Gan Guoyang, Gan Guoyang's arms are too long, and he is very well prepared, his defense is a typical embarrassment does not lose position, it looks like he lost people, but in fact he is ready to defend, he fully understands the advantages of his height and arm span.

Unlike some players, the person did not follow, but in fact the defensive attention has been drawn away, and by the time the person he is following is attacking with the ball, he has no time to react.

Mark Bryant was obviously flustered after getting the ball, and he didn't know who to give the ball to, and then he remembered the phrase "grab the rebound, pass the ball to Gan", so he handed the ball to Gan Guoyang, and then Gan Guoyang handed the ball to Terry Porter.

With such a pass, the Trail Blazers can't afford to play fast break, and when they really come to the positional offense, the problem of the Trail Blazers soon came out, Bryant has no offensive ability at all, so the Trail Blazers are four to five on the offensive end, and Jim Paxson's single ability is also extremely degraded, his advantages are in the transfer of the ball, fixed-point projection and rich experience on the spot, so the team's main offensive point is Gan Guoyang, Duckworth and Porter.

Porter just passed the ball to Gan Guoyang in the low post on the right side, Gan Guoyang was immediately caught by three people, but Gan Guoyang did not flinch at all, only to see him holding the ball in one hand with his left hand, and suddenly turned around to the bottom line, and AC-Green, who defended him, was directly squeezed away, and Abdul-Jabbar on the other side also came up to make up for the defense.

Gan Guoyang dribbled all the way from the right side to the left, and before Abdul-Jabbar's block came up, he dunked into the basket with one hand! Two more points! 6：0！ The opening Trail Blazers beat the Lakers a 6:0!

At this time, Riley is still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, it seems that he has been prepared for the opening situation, and sure enough, the Lakers' score will come soon, Johnson and Abdul-Jabbar played a simple blocking and dismantling cooperation, Johnson hit the ground and passed to the inside, Abdul-Jabbar received the ball and took two big strides and dunked directly with one hand! There is no way for Gan Guoyang to do this ball, Abdul-Jabbar has already rushed up, even if he is a 42-year-old classic car, Gan Guoyang does not dare to take the risk of fouling to block him, there is no need.

"Beautiful dunk, he doesn't look like 42 at all, and I think he might have another three years to play until he is forty-five. The Trail Blazers handed the ball to Paxson, Paxson dribbled across the half court, Porter went around the baseline, received the ball and broke through to the basket! The ball goes in, and it is a very stylish fit. ”

Porter took on a heavier scoring task in the half, and Paxson had to take on some playmaking tasks in the opposite game, Porter shook off Scott's defense with the help of Gan's cover on the baseline, and then received a pass from Paxson, broke through the middle and hit a small throw, this ball Abdul-Jabbar couldn't jump, the ball slipped through his fingertips and fell into the basket.

The first eight points of the Trail Blazers were handled by Gan Guoyang and Porter, and it is clear that the two of them are the absolute core of the Trail Blazers in this game.

"Worthy gets the ball again and shoots a step-back jumper! Still missed! Gan gets the rebound! Worthy started the game badly enough. The Lakers persistently hit Worthy's point, but Worthy missed all three consecutive shots, obviously Gan Guoyang interfered greatly with his shooting, generally he rarely shot back, because his shooting action is a straight arm high shot, his arm span is very long, coupled with fast speed, ordinary people can't interfere with him at all, as a result, he had to use his own bad backs to shoot in the opening face of Gan Guoyang, and the shooting rate was quite bad.

"Gan holds the ball on the baseline and jumps directly to the basket! The ball is in! On the contrary, Gan Guoyang started with a good hand, he took the ball at 18 feet from the bottom line, the Lakers players in this position did not have time to wrap him, and the defense of Gan Guoyang was AC-Green, Green was obviously worse than Gan Guoyang in height, although he reported a height of 6 feet 9, but it was actually only about 6 feet 8, so after Gan Guoyang Sigma stepped into the basket, he directly faced Green's face and pulled out the jump shot, and with almost no interference, Gan Guoyang hit the jump shot, 10:2!

At this moment, Riley finally couldn't sit still, and he chewed on the gum in his mouth on the sidelines, which was a sign of his inner anxiety.

Obviously, the Lakers' strategy of playing Worthy in the opening game failed, because Riley did not expect that the Trail Blazers would let Gan Guoyang play against Worthy in the opening game, otherwise let Mark Bryant or Anderson play against Worthy, Worthy is definitely sure to eat them alone, but he is really not sure about Gan Guoyang at all.

"The Lakers called a timeout, such a start was unexpected, and the Trail Blazers, who had an incomplete opening lineup, played a good start."
