Donic Wilkins isn't great, but he's definitely a powerful player.

In 1982, he entered the league with James Worthy, and the Lakers, who held the No. 1 pick, finally chose Worthy, who came from the prestigious North Carolina, making it an important piece of the puzzle for the Purple and Gold; Wilkins was drafted by the Utah Jazz with the third overall pick and was traded to Atlanta, where he became the top name.

Many years later, many people are wondering what would happen to the fortunes of Wilkins if Wilkins went to the Lakers and Worth went to Atlanta, whether Wilkins would play a more brilliant offense with the Magic, and whether Worthy would be able to break new ground in Atlanta.

Not being picked by the Lakers may make Wilkins forever miss the championship, in fact, in the cruel East, he can't even touch the floor of the division finals, the 76ers, Celtics, Pistons, Bucks and other mountains are pressed on their heads in turn, and the Hawks have no room to turn over.

However, Wilkins is a natural boss, and whether he is suitable is another matter.

His style of play and fighting spirit are like his dunks, full of tyranny, as if every time he scores, he has to tear the basket to stop, and the powerful way of bombarding the basket is completely different from the chic gliding and flying of Dr. J. Irving, Drexler and Jordan.

Wilkins is not a glider, but a helicopter, straight up and down, and then dunks the ball into the basket with explosive force, giving a huge visual impact, so he is the "essence of human cinema".

When playing on the court, just like his dunks, Wilkins will always move forward without flinching, when the team needs him to score, he will not hesitate to carry the offensive banner, with his accurate jump shots and brute breakthroughs to score points for the team, and he often kills red-eyed, and the opponent's top scorer is in a fight, no matter what the result is, he is not afraid.

In the first half of the game with the Trail Blazers, the Hawks' offense and defense were all inferior, trailing the Trail Blazers by as many as 16 points, and Flatlow had no choice but to pin his hopes on Wilkins and hope that Moses Malone could rejuvenate himself, and Malone was suppressed by Gan Guoyang in the first half and only took a pitiful three points.

Doug Rivers and Reggie Tois also played mediocre, the Trail Blazers' tall and strong perimeter and extremely fast pace dragged the two to a bit of a loss, but it was the little potato Sparti Webber who came off the bench to play well, relying on the ability to fight randomly to score points in the first half when the Hawks couldn't open the situation, so that the Hawks would not fall too far behind in the first half.

On the pioneer's side, Gan Guoyang seemed to hold back a lot of strength to hit it out in a circle, thinking that there was a wall opposite, but it turned out to be a piece of paper, and the decline of the old Malone came so quickly that Gan Guoyang was unexpected.

But Gan Guoyang naturally will not show mercy, 15 points and 16 rebounds in the half, Gan Guoyang has already won the double fifteen, if he continues to go all out in the second half, another double thirty of his career will be in the bag.

It's just that it depends on whether the Eagles in the second half are worth Gan Guoyang's all-out effort.

When they came out of the players' tunnel and returned to the court, the fans at the Eagles' home stadium were still enthusiastic, the 16-point gap, and half the game, was not out of reach, and the fans were still full of confidence in the Eagles.

“Beat-PT，Beat-PT，Beat-PT！” Fans began shouting "Down with the Trail Blazers" to cheer on the Hawks, and after trailing by 16 points in the second half, the Hawks' Cavaliers actually came back in the second half.

"It's just fucking different from Miami." Gan Guoyang thought in his heart that in the last game against Miami, less than half of the fans had already begun to turn to cheer for the Trail Blazers, and in Atlanta, the fans still did not give up hope, not to mention that it was indeed very early before the end of the game.

The encouragement of the fans will undoubtedly inspire the strength of the players, and Wilkins was already holding his breath in the first half, so at the beginning of the second half, Wilkins held the ball and went straight to the inside and struggled to attack the basket.

Gan Guoyang failed to block and fouled Wilkins to the free throw line, and the Hawks' momentum was revived in the second half.

As a team that mainly plays the defensive card, the Hawks did not show the defensive intensity they should have in the first half, they pursued frontcourt rebounds excessively, and they were chased and beaten by the Trail Blazers, and the Hawks coach also adjusted his strategy in time, knowing that it was impossible to pick up the frontcourt rebounds on Gan Guoyang's head, so he completely gave up the frontcourt rebounds and retreated with all his might, not giving the Trail Blazers more and less opportunities to score easily.

At the same time, the Hawks players will also strengthen the pressure on the ball, improve the defensive intensity, so that the Trail Blazers' outside rotation pass is no longer smooth, the Trail Blazers rely very much on the distribution and transfer of the ball in the positional offense, except for Gan Guoyang, the absolute strong point, the other four players on the court distribute the ball very reasonably and evenly, even the team's No. 2 core Draxler, in terms of the number of balls is not much more than Terry Porter.

This is the Trail Blazers' regular style of play, relying on fast break to score quickly when the opponent's defense is lax, and focusing on the transfer of the ball when playing positional battles, but at the same time not executing overly complex tactics, Adelman believes that with the offensive talent of the Trail Blazers' current players, using overly complex tactical coordination like Jack Ramsey is a limitation of their ability.

The benefit of a simple strategy is the consistency of the team's style of play, as the players play more easily on the pitch and often play at a higher level, which is why Jerome Cauchy and Terry Porter have exploded under Adelman.

The disadvantage is that after the opponent's defensive intensity, especially the intensity of the single defense, the team is prone to fall into a scoring drought, which is different from the Trail Blazers during the Ramsay period, the Trail Blazers in the Ramsay period were fluent and lacking in explosives, they are best at accumulating small advantages, and then leading all the way to the whole court.

Today's Trail Blazers are completely reversed, with extremely explosive offense, and they are particularly prone to climaxes, especially when Porter, Cauchy, Drexler, and Williams are on the court, they can often play offensive climaxes.

When the Hawks strengthened their shrinking defense and improved their physical confrontation, the Trail Blazers' outside offense began to become difficult, especially the fast offense, and the Trail Blazers fell into an offensive stagnation for a while, while Adelman watched from the sidelines and never called a timeout.

"Solve the problem yourself! Work something out! Adelman watched from the sidelines as the team's offense stalled, yelling that he hoped that the players would sometimes be able to solve problems on the pitch and adjust their condition, rather than always having the coach call a timeout.

However, as soon as Adelman finished yelling, Porter's outside pass was cut off by Rivers, and the Hawks launched a quick counterattack.

This is one of the few quick counter-attack opportunities for the Hawks so far, because the Trail Blazers have been doing a good job of controlling turnovers, and the frontcourt rebounding rush is relatively in place, and Cauchy is keeping an eye on Wilkins at any time.

But the offensive discomfort made the Trail Blazers' defensive formation begin to mess up, and Cauchy wanted to cut to the inside to play with Porter, but he was already far away from Wilkins, and when Wilkins rushed to the front court with the ball, Cauchy obviously couldn't keep up.

The fans at the Eagles all stood up, and they knew that the best of human cinema was about to stage his own movie moment.

At this time, there was also a villain in front of Wilkins, Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang did not directly take over the burden of offense in the second half, he was still trying to cover and block for his teammates, so just now Porter was cut off the ball and others were on the outside, and he ran back to the basket in time to defend.

Wilkins was like a black bolt of lightning, speeding towards Gan Guoyang, his dribbling was not like the average guard forward who focused on protecting the ball, but opened and closed wide, rushing forward without any care.

At this time, Gan Guoyang did not stand in a good position under the basket, he came back a little late, and his body just turned sideways to face Wilkins, who had already jumped with both feet and bounced into the air.

Gan Guoyang didn't have time to jump, but Wilkins slammed the dunk with both hands!

"Yay!" The scene was boiling, this was Wilkins' first dunk in this game, as long as Wilkins dunked, some viewers felt that the ticket was worth it.

After the ball was scored, Wilkins did not let go, dangling two legs in the air and directly on Gan Guoyang's body.

It doesn't matter if he is detained, how can a person float in the rivers and lakes without being stabbed, but being ridden on his body Gan Guoyang absolutely can't stand it.

“You-son-of-bitch，get-down！ (Bitch raised for me!) Gan Guoyang roared angrily and pushed Wilkins.

“What-a-bird-man！ (What a birdman!) Gan Guoyang didn't forget to add a sentence.

Wilkins accidentally almost fell to the ground, and his emotions also came up, and Gan Guoyang's push was also a dangerous action.

"You-mother-fucker, shut-up! ）”

“Get-over-yourself，man，you-will-be-sorry。 (Weigh yourself, you'll regret it.) ）”

“I-could-kill-you，kill-you！ (I can kill you, kill you!) ）”

………… The two began to spew trash talk under the basket, and since the start of the new season, because the game has been relatively smooth, Gan Guoyang has not been talking for a while, and Wilkins has undoubtedly lit his powder keg.

Malone and the referee finally pulled both of them apart without causing a bigger conflict.

At this point, Adelman looked like he wanted to call a timeout to adjust the Trail Blazers, and by this time the Hawks had chased the score to just six points, and they played a small 10-0 climax.

“No！ No！ Gan Guoyang made two gestures towards Adelman, signaling that there was no need to call a timeout.

Adelman nodded and decided to leave it to Gan Guoyang to deal with.

It's the best transmission in his lineup.
