Gan Guoyang once said to reporters, "Among the yellow players in the NBA, my dunk is the best."

Of course, this statement is a joke, because there is only one yellow player in the entire NBA, and as long as he can dunk, his dunk is the best.

But Gan Guoyang also has enough confidence in his dunk, Gan Guoyang's dunk is rare in the center of the elegant and chic type, which is not only due to his upper-middle level of jumping, but also thanks to the aesthetic enjoyment brought by his slender limbs, many fans like to call Gan Guoyang "" (large Dr. J) when describing Gan Guoyang's dunk, the reason is that although Gan Guoyang does not have Dr. J's strong bounce, he has long arms and big hands like Dr. J.

When he jumped into the air, stretched out his arms and dunked the ball into the basket, that kind of freehand and elegance can always make all fans intoxicated, and every time after a successful dunk, Gan Guoyang will run back to the backcourt to defend like Dr. J, and that calmness and calmness impress many people.

And Gan Guoyang's air relay ball, full of jumps and sufficient height, but his body is still some distance away from the basket, so after holding the ball with one hand in the air, Gan Guoyang completely straightened his long arm, and the moment the ball was dunked into the basket, the arm was almost perpendicular to the body, so it gave people the feeling that the ball was extremely powerful, as if the arm was directly pulled down from top to bottom.

The crowd was released from their previously suppressed form, which also gave the Trail Blazers players a huge boost, and Adelman once again resisted the urge to call a timeout and let the game continue.

But Magic Johnson is ruthless to the enemy, such a dunk can not shake his determination at all, and soon in the offense the Magic broke through the layup again, this time he used a butterfly to dribble like a flower, with a strong body and a good rhythm to squeeze into the inside, and scored under the defensive interference of Gan Guoyang, Gan Guoyang because he had already committed a foul before, so he didn't dare to pounce on this ball with all his might, for fear of being blown foul again and going to rest.

At 17:5, the Trail Blazers are still behind the Lakers by a big score, and it seems that they are really difficult to defend Magic, because it is basically difficult to contain Magic with him, and the consequence of wrapping Magic is basically to send others to score, and the defensive Magic must be misplaced to defend, so that the team's scoring guard or small forward can fight, in the past, the Trail Blazers used Drexler to defend alone, and now Adelman has begun to use their outside lock Cauchy.

Cauchy has improved quite rapidly in recent years, he is physically strong, has a positive attitude, the key is to train hard, work the court, and also have very good skills on the offensive end, but he is still not enough to see in the face of the rampaging Magic, Johnson can play with him almost anytime and anywhere.

But Magic also has some of his small flaws, which he is the same as his old opponent Larry Bird, that is, his defensive ability is far less outstanding than his offensive ability, especially Magic's height has an advantage on the offensive end and when grabbing rebounds, but on the defensive end, facing the opponent's small guard has become a disadvantage, often relying on Byron Scott or Michael Cooper to assist him, but now, Terry Porter and Drexler in the backcourt, he must be staring at one, and as a result, after Magic scored, Terry Porter immediately took the ball and ran across the half.

Gan Guoyang stepped forward to make a block for Porter, and Porter bypassed the magician and shot directly outside the 45-degree three-point line, and the ball went straight to the basket like a cannonball.

"Huh!" The ball hollows into the net, a three-pointer! At 17:8, the Trail Blazers immediately recovered a 3-pointer.

This is what Terry Porter is best at, chasing ass and hitting three-pointers in the process of offensive and defensive transitions, in which Gan Guoyang's high-quality cover is crucial, always creating a small but effective shooting space for Porter, which is very effective when the Trail Blazers chase points or extend their advantage.

After the goal, Gan Guoyang and Porter high-fived, and the entire Trail Blazers have become more and more excellent in the process of the playoffs, and they have successfully adjusted from the rhythm of the regular season and entered the team rhythm of the playoffs.

Subsequently, the Magic began to gradually reduce the proportion of their offense and began to organize the team more offensively, James Worthy and Byron Scott, two players began to show their excellent offensive skills, due to misalignment, Drexler had to defend Worthy, Worthy was the last small forward in the late eighties and early nineties, and in the early eighties, the strongest players in this style of play like Dantley, Aquili, and Bernard King have begun to gradually withdraw from the highest stage of the NBA.

At the same time, Worthy's style of play has gradually been eliminated with the popularization and development of three-point tactics, and mid-to-long-range shooting is becoming more and more important for small forwards.

However, the team that dared to ignore Worthy in the game had to pay the price, after the Lakers' offensive power was handed over to Worthy, Worthy attacked three times in a row, Drexler's height and arm span were not enough to contain Worthy, after all, a low-post offensive ability like Worthy, even Kevin McHale could not control.

However, Drexler's points that were knocked out in defense can also be recovered in offense, and now a major flaw in the Lakers lineup is that once the outside line is blocked and dismantled by the opponent, Abdul-Jabbar can no longer cover the inside, Drexler is to seize the Lakers' sore foot, and continuously impact the inside, either dunking directly or causing foul free throws.

The two sides can be said to be inseparable, and the offensive efficiency on both sides is quite high, but the Trailblazers can always score one or two more points than the Lakers in three or four rounds, and the difference in points is narrowed little by little, and these two points are from Gan Guoyang.

If Abdul-Jabbar is five years younger, then he can still play with Gan Guoyang on the offensive end, but he is 42 years old this year, which is really too old for a basketball player, especially in a high-intensity game like the playoffs, Abdul-Jabbar can keep up with the offensive and defensive footsteps on both sides of the court It is already very remarkable, but it is difficult for him to make continuous contributions, Sabonis has nothing else to do, but to fight with Abdul-Jabbar with all his might.

Sabonis missed the Western Conference semifinals, and he made a comeback in the Western Conference finals, but in the first game against the Lakers, he didn't make much contribution on the offensive end, after all, his hands were a little raw, but on the defensive end, he really played and sang any kung fu, and tried his best to stop Abdul-Jabbar, whose old bones almost didn't fall apart under the invasion of the Soviet Bear.

On the contrary, the Lakers' AC-Green felt more and more pressure in the defense, and in the first half, Gan Guoyang did not attack with all his strength, but played piecemeal, occasionally playing, but except for the opening shot that was caught in the bag, he has begun to adapt to the Lakers' bag, even if the three of them pounce together, Gan Guoyang can also shoot the ball on their heads expressionlessly.

Like his dunks, Gan Guoyang's shooting is also "the best among yellow players in the NBA".

His shooting has reached one of the highest levels in the league after years of hard work, and his shooting point is extremely high, and the probability of being covered is very low, so he doesn't even need to lean back, but uses a quick turn to directly raise the ball to the highest point and then shoot.

When Gan Guoyang starts to hit consecutive mid-range shots, like a heavy truck, the increase is very slow at first, but when he improves a little bit and raises to the highest level, it is difficult for you to stop.

"Gan holds the ball in the high post, he is afraid of the bag, so he easily does not go to the low post, his back is against Green, and he turns over and jumps, a 2o foot difficult shot! The ball goes in. Wow, I don't think I have much more to say. ”

Sean Li really has nothing to say, Gan Guoyang has already hit Green in the same position and hit 4 jumpers in a row, at this time the score between the two sides has become 51:55, and the Lakers are only 4 points ahead at the end of the second quarter.

The Trail Blazers are catching up step by step, and Adelman is convinced that with a team like the Lakers, you must not close your eyes and chase points because the score is behind, which will only make the game enter the rhythm that the Lakers like, and the result is that you run fast, the Lakers run faster, and you will never be able to catch up with him.

To deal with the Lakers, you have to play steadily like this, step by step, consume the opponent's advantage little by little, 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 has already geared up to practice his hands.
