When Adelman saw that the game was over, he wanted to replace Gan Guoyang from the field in advance, but Gan Guoyang shook his head at Adelman, so Adelman still put Gan Guoyang on the field until the end of the game.

At this time, Adelman's main concern is not that Gan Guoyang can score more points on the court and save some face for the team, but hopes that Gan Guoyang will not be injured, especially when playing against a team like the Pistons, although the Pistons' "dirty" tactics are more of a psychological tactic, and there are not many players who are really injured because of playing with the Pistons, but Adelman still inevitably has to worry about this problem.

Fortunately, Gan Guoyang still played safely on the court until the last second, and even the Pistons replaced the main players to welcome the applause of the fans, but Gan Guoyang, as the absolute main force, still stayed on the court, even if the players who played with him were players on the edge of the bench.

When the whistle blew at the end of the game, the entire Auburn Hills arena went into a state of cheering, and this big win was significant for the Pistons, not only because they had won the battle against their biggest potential championship rival of the season, but also because the team's trade was an initial success, Aquilli played well in this game, and more importantly, the relationship between him and his teammates was unusually harmonious, he was willing to defend, he was willing to follow Daley's command, and he was willing to take the lead of the Mavericks and become a pawn on the Pistons.

In the whole game, the Pistons' number one star Isaiah Thomas only scored 6 points, only 2 of 11 shots, and his performance was not bad, but the Pistons could still rely on their strong overall strength and correct and effective strategies to give the opponent a head-on blow when the Trail Blazers were sleepy and the lineup was not complete.

Although there are all kinds of unfavorable factors on the Trailblazers' side, the final result is like this, which is also beyond many people's expectations, especially Gan Guoyang's performance, which is particularly bad under the harassment of Dennis Rodman, which is a typical mouse eating an elephant, and the inferior horse exchanging the superior horse.

Therefore, after the game, the Pistons players were particularly excited, while the Trail Blazers players were extremely frustrated, winning and losing is a common thing, but this season's Trail Blazers have tasted defeat is really too rare, and there is only one such painful defeat.

At the post-game press conference, Gan Guoyang had to accept questions from reporters without exception, especially when the Trail Blazers lost, reporters always had a lot of questions.

When a reporter asked Gan Guoyang why he didn't get off the field at the last moment, Gan Guoyang replied: "It was I who told the coach that I wanted to stay on the field, I didn't want to get off the field, although I knew that we played badly tonight and there was no hope of victory, but I couldn't sit on the bench and watch the team lose." Even if I didn't play well tonight, if I sat on the bench I couldn't do anything. ”

"Also, I don't want to watch sports news at night and the TV camera sweeps to the Trail Blazers' bench and gives me a big close-up." After Gan Guoyang finished answering, he didn't forget to add a sentence, which caused the reporters to laugh, but Gan Guoyang himself could only laugh.

That's right, Gan Guoyang didn't want to be swept into the "appearance of all beings", in fact, after returning to the hotel, he didn't even watch TV, he didn't want to watch TV reports, watch the Trailblazers lose again in the news, not like watching himself be embarrassed by Rodman in the game.

When Gan Guoyang was lying on the bed and felt a little idle, there was a knock on the door, Gan Guoyang opened the door, and then saw Adelman standing at the door with a video camera in his hand, Gan Guoyang hurriedly let Adelman in.

"Good news, I borrowed a good VCR from the hotel, the one we had brought with us broke down; Bad news, Drexler could have returned on the 28th, but there is news from Portland that he needs to be watched, and his foot injury has been a bit recurrent, and we hope he can keep his best form until the playoffs. Adelman came in and said to Gan Guoyang.

'That's right, if Clyde gets injured in the playoffs, that's the worst and now we can get through it, it's just a game.' Gan Guoyang sat on the bed and said.

"Yes, one game, but we made a lot of mistakes, you know, now the whole league is staring at us, looking at how to beat us, and every time we fail, the coaches of other teams are analysing and looking for ways to beat us." Adelman said as he installed the VCR on the TV in Gan's room.

"Yes, but most of them failed." Gan Guoyang stepped aside and poured Adelman a glass of water.

"But as long as they succeed a little bit, every team succeeds a little bit, somebody will find a way to deal with us. I bet this guy from Pat Riley is definitely watching the footage of our game with the Pistons right now, figuring out how to limit you, how to limit our fast break, how to limit Sabonis' passing, how to deal with Williams on the bench. Adelman was like Grande at this time, afraid that his opponent would study them and steal a little victory.

Adelman's worries are neither superfluous nor superfluous, because in the regular season, every team has to face so many opponents and play so many games, although it will target one or two teams, but it is impossible to stare at one team every day, many times with the strength of the Trail Blazers, there is not much need to adjust, as long as there are no injuries all the way through to the end of the season, the problem will not be too big.

It's not redundant, it's for the playoffs, the regular season is the training ground, the playoffs are the battlefield of real knives and guns, and it's too late to study the strategy and tactics in the playoffs.

The Detroit Pistons are the biggest favorites in the East this season, and they are last year's champions, and their strength is not strong, and it can be seen from this game that the Pistons' adaptability is quite free, and using Rodman to defend Gan Guoyang is not just as simple as making a small forward misplace to defend the center, Gan Guoyang is defeated under the system of the entire Pistons, not in the hands of Rodman.

This is also the terrible thing about the Pistons, special tactics need to be practiced repeatedly in peacetime, it seems that Daley has long been prepared for how to deal with Gan Guoyang. If Adelman doesn't make a few preparations, then in the playoffs, Gan Guoyang will be limited by the opponent's team, which will be very fatal.

"Okay, the VCR is set, let's take a look at tonight's game, I know you don't want to watch it anymore, but we need to improve, and I have some good advice for your style of play, I've discussed it with Mr. Bellman before, and I think it's very good." Adelman said to Gan Guoyang after setting up the video recorder.

Gan Guoyang nodded when he heard this, as long as he can make improvements and make progress, what is it to watch a video of a loss.

However, when Adelman turned on the video recorder, his own performance in it still made Gan Guoyang a little unbearable, receiving the ball wrong, passing the ball, not getting the ball, missing the hook, pushing Rodman to get a foul, and scolding Ranbir to a technical foul, until the end of the game, a lonely person on the field doing switchback running, all of this combined with Gan Guoyang's recollection of the game process, he not only got goosebumps.

At this time, Adelman's suggestion made Gan Guoyang thoughtful.

"Look, Gan, you're trying to get out of Rodman's grip with your own movement, but how do you get past a small forward? And you find that no, your position is too close to 45 degrees down, too close to the baseline, these balls close to the baseline, you look here, here, here, several players from the Pistons are surrounding you, and you yourself should know that this position is the easiest to fall into the defensive trap, and we often create such traps, and now you are also caught in it. ”

Adelman actually pointed out a very important problem, that is, Gan Guoyang's positioning, as an inside line, Gan Guoyang's big advantage is that he is flexible, thanks to his increasingly large range of attacks, Gan Guoyang can receive the ball in any place to attack.

However, there are two problems brought about by such erratic movements, one is the increased difficulty of teammates and his cooperation, and the other is that Gan Guoyang is sometimes unconsciously driven into the opponent's defensive trap.

"Look here, I stopped the video, Sully, Lambir, Rodman, formed a small encirclement in this position, and you fell into this small encirclement, you see you are on the left, I know that you are most comfortable with the ball in this place, and it is also your forte to turn to the baseline, but the other party also knows your intentions." Gan Guoyang is best at one of the offensive tricks, which is to receive Sabonis's pass mid-range jumper at the bottom line or in a more out-of-the-box position after slipping the bottom line.

But tonight, Gan Guoyang didn't catch any of such easy scoring opportunities.

"Gan, I want to say, your skills are really well-rounded, and it's really, really rare for an interior player to be able to slip the baseline and score a jumper like you; But I would say you can score in that way, Paxson, Cauchy, Clyde, even Brans. If it were them, would the opponent defend like this? I don't think so, but when I meet you, I will. So, in the future, I won't give you such a tactic, you need to go to a more important and lethal position. With that, Adelman pointed to the TV and pointed to three positions, one low, one horn, and one arc top.
