The game at Baker's Waterfront Stadium made Gan Guoyang a trio famous. After that, the fame of "GunandRose" began to spread on the court.

However, in addition to being known by everyone because of that magical debut, there is also an important reason why all three of them are Chinese. The Chinese in the United States have always been regarded as representatives of a well-developed mind and simple limbs, and basically have nothing to do with sports. All kinds of sports are the world of black and white, and the basketball court is "pitch black".

The appearance of these three yellow skins has undoubtedly attracted everyone's attention, but in fact, there is still a gap between their strength and some other wild ball teams.

After the game that day, he went home, and the next day Gan Guoyang was so sore that he almost couldn't get out of bed, and his previous practice of going to Union Square for bullfighting every morning was also left behind.

But playing bullfighting in a humble venue like Union Square is no longer enough for the three, and the waterfront court has become their new choice.

"Hey! Keep an eye on him! Keep an eye on him! Don't relax! ”

"Don't patronize the ball! Look at people, look at people! ”

"Follow him! Follow him! ”

"Risking him!"

The sound of the players' command and exchange was constantly heard on the field.

"Brush!" The sound of the ball hollowing into the net interrupts the previous shouting.

"Yay! Win! Big cousin, your shots are getting more and more accurate! It was the voice of the fat man Gan Guohui, and it seemed that they had won another challenge.

"It felt good today, much better than yesterday, and I won yesterday." Gan Guoyang is quite satisfied with his performance.

The Guns N' Roses have been playing the challenge at this venue for more than a week. Overall, they're getting better and better.

Chen Xing is no longer just playing soy sauce with Lao Hei like before, but has become the main ball handler of the Guns and Roses, and he has improved in dribbling and passing, and is a good commander.

And Gan Guohui's fat has not diminished, but he looks obviously much more energetic. The stunner in the first game gave him a huge amount of confidence, and he was no longer afraid to play with blacks, but to dare to fight, dare to make moves, and was the rebounder of the guns, roses, and trio.

Although Gan Guoyang is the tallest, he has an unparalleled excellent shooting touch, his shooting rate is becoming more and more stable when he catches the ball, and he has relied on his anti-sky hand to stage consecutive goals and finally turn the tables many times in critical moments. This also made him the top scorer and No. 1 star of the Guns and Roses.

However, Gan Guoyang was a little worried, because he found that he seemed to rely more and more on jump shots, and his confrontation and dribble breakthrough did not improve much, let alone the strong play on the inside.

"Hey, hello! Can I play here? At this moment, the voice of questioning came from the side of the court.

Everyone turned their heads and saw three tall men, two black and one white, walking in from outside the court. All three of them wore small red tank tops and blue sports shorts, and all had stockings and Converse shoes on their feet, giving them a very formal and professional feel.

"Wow, it's Pittman! How did you get here? "It's Jason, who seems to be a jack of all trades.

"I was a little bored, but I heard that there was a very interesting team in this field, so we took a look." It was the white man who spoke. In the eighties, white people were rare on American street courts, because street courts were considered chaotic, dirty black places, and racial discrimination was still rampant at that time.

But San Francisco is faring much better than some cities on the East Coast. The white man, who appeared to be the boss of the team, went on to say, "We want to come over and have fun, let's have a fight?" ”

“OK！ No problem! ”

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Golden Gate Park's Cancer team is coming to our site for a challenge! ”

"Uh-huh!" Many people in the venue were excited, and it seemed that the name of this "cancer" team, although strange, must be a bit famous.

“Cancer？ Cancer? What kind of team is this? Gan Guoyang heard that they were going to play against his own team, and he was also curious about their names.

"Yes, cancer. They played at Golden Gate Park, and they were a pretty good team. The reason why it is called cancer is because their defense is very strong, and they can torture their opponents like cancerous tumors. Chen Xing recognized the team.

Golden Gate Park is a large green park located on San Francisco's West Side, which also has many courts and is home to some of San Francisco's best amateur basketball players.

"Hey guys, I'm Pittman." The white golfers of the cancer team had already walked into the field and greeted Gan Guoyang.

"Hi, there. I'm Gan. ”

"You've been very popular at the Esplanade recently, and it's been spread to Golden Gate Park, so let's take a look and have a good game, right?" On the street court, it is normal to be attracted to the challenge, and it is also one of the highlights of the street game.

Gan Guoyang naturally accepted the challenge of his opponent.

"Let's get started!" At Jason's roar, the game began.

Pitman, who is around 6'1 (1.85m) tall and is the point guard for the Cancer team, is seen hunched over and shuttled around the half court like a civet.

At that time, street basketball was still quite practical, unlike later when it became more and more fancy. In the sixties and seventies, NBA superstars often went to play in Rock Park in New York, because there were many good street players who did not make it to the NBA, and the level of street basketball was quite high.

Later, as the NBA became more and more commercialized, the wages of players became higher and higher, and talented players poured into the professional basketball world, the legends on the streets could only exist in the oral accounts of the old people.

Pitman's dribbling is clearly influenced by Bob Coothy's quick and agile movement, and his passing has the style of Coothy.

I saw that he burst to the basket and attracted the bag of Gan Guohui and Chen Xing, but he flicked the ball behind him, and it was a very sudden back pass!

The ball reached the big black man who cut into the inside line, and I saw him take a step after receiving the ball, jump high, and vigorously pour the frame with both hands! Score, 1:0.

Gan Guoyang didn't react at this time, because his attention was also attracted by Pittman.

The black man is 6'5 (1.95 meters) tall, and he has very long legs, and he looks strong and strong in small blue shorts.

His slam dunk drew applause from the audience, and he looked at Gan Guoyang and shook his head, as if to say, "You can't." ”

Gan Guoyang exhaled heavily, knowing that he was too careless, and he only cared about watching the ball and not marking people. Next, he must keep an eye on this long leg.

Serving again, Pitman didn't dribble inside this time, but stood on the perimeter and dribbled slowly. And inside, Long Legs has already started a card battle with Gan Guoyang.

Long legs are not only long legs, but also long arms, he hugged Gan Guoyang away, blocked him behind, and then stuck the position with his butt and reached out for the ball.

Seeing that the long leg was stuck in position, Pitman quickly passed the ball to him. After receiving the ball with long legs, a heavy shoulder, a slight bump opened Gan Guoyang's top, and he made an easy layup, 2:0!

At this time, Gan Guoyang didn't even touch the ball, and he looked a little annoyed, because he found that no matter how hard he tried just now, he couldn't push his long legs. Although the long legs don't look particularly strong, I didn't expect the strength to be quite good and very hard.

In this way, the cancer team used this tactic of inside singles to score five in a row, and Gan Guoyang had no way at all. Even if Gan Guohui came up to attack, there was no way to stop the long legs from scoring.

"Hey, don't you all have a decent insider?" There was a hint of disdain on Pittman's face, street basketball was not a place to play tricks, and scoring goals was the last word.

Gan Guoyang didn't speak, he knew that his skills were not as good as others, and playing tricks would only make him more embarrassed.

Kicking off again, the cancer team still uses long-legged inside singles, and it seems that they are going to use this tactic to play all the time, beating the opponent to death, so that the confidence of a team is devastating.

The long legs were stuck again, but this time he felt that there was not much power coming from behind his back except for Gan Guoyang's hand on his back, so his position was very relaxed and deep.

"Looks like this kid has given up." Longleg felt that this yellow-skinned boy must have been beaten and had no confidence, so he simply didn't take precautions.

Pitman passed the ball in again, but at this time, Gan Guoyang, who was behind the long legs, suddenly stretched his legs with his hand, making the long legs crooked and a little unbalanced.

Then, he quickly squeezed from the side to the front and practiced a defensive around the front!

The ball just arrived in front of him, and Gan Guoyang flicked his right hand and destroyed the pass. Chen Xing immediately rushed forward and snatched the ball, successfully defended, and the offense and defense were converted!

finally succeeded in defending again, although Gan Guoyang made a little move, but this is still very normal on the street.

"Fight well! We still have a chance! Gan encouraged the other two. They have played many challenge matches, and it is not the first time that they have turned the tables around, so they still have a lot of confidence.

"George, take good care of that kid." And that's when the Cancers are going to start showing their defensive prowess.

The third member of the cancer team, George, who is slightly shorter than Long Legs, is 6 feet 4 (1.93 meters), but looks stronger than Long Legs. With a broad body, thick arms, and strong thighs, he had basically nothing to do with the previous attack, and now, it was time for him to make a difference.

Guns Roses still use their best tactics, Gan Guoyang runs, Gan Guohui covers, and Chen Xing looks for opportunities to break through or pass to Gan Guoyang to shoot.

At this time, Gan Guoyang was already targeted by George.

Chen Xing found that it was difficult to pass the ball comfortably into Gan Guoyang's hands, so he had to wait for an opportunity to break through. But Pittman in front of him is not so easy to deal with, and the height disadvantage makes his vision very poor.

In the end, he had to pass the ball to Gan Guoyang in a hurry.

Gan Guoyang barely received the ball, but there was no room to shoot, because George's whole body was already covered up, clinging to him like a dogskin plaster.

If you want to get rid of the dogskin plaster defense, you can either use the dribble to shake it off, or use your strength to push it away, but unfortunately Gan Guoyang is not good at either.

He used his body to protect the ball, trying to rely on the strength of his back to push George away and gain space to dribble or shoot, but he had no advantage in the confrontation, he couldn't even withstand the long legs, let alone the stronger George.

Gan Guoyang had to pass the ball out and into Gan Guohui's hands. Gan Guohui grabbed a gap and threw the ball, but unfortunately the ball bounced out of the frame and the rebound was taken by Long Legs.

This time, the cancer team didn't use the long-legged singles again, Pitman and George made a simple block, Pitman made an excellent ground-hitting pass, gave George who cut in, and George split the dunk with one hand! 6：0。

Next, the cancer team scored two goals in a row, 8:0, and the guns rose was beaten without temper.

"Defend one more!" Gan Guoyang did not give up, he still had a glimmer of hope for his hand.

"Bang!" Pittman's shot smashed into the frame, and Gan Guohui jumped up hard, grabbed the rebound in front of his long legs, and immediately passed it to Gan Guoyang. Gan Guoyang and Chen Xing made another mutual transmission to complete the offensive and defensive transition.

At this time, Gan Guoyang got the ball in the most comfortable position at the top of the arc, and George had not yet posted it, he did not hesitate, and immediately bent his knees, jumped, and shot.

"Smack!" However, as soon as the ball left Gan Guoyang's fingers, he saw George jumping up high, slapped the ball with one palm, and gave Gan Guoyang a strong cap!

"Sigh------" There were some boos on the sidelines, obviously as the guns and roses fighting at home, it was indeed a bit embarrassing to play like this. And the audience is very realistic, cheering if they play well, and boos when they play badly.

"Hey, are you only going to shoot?" George looked at Gan Guoyang, who was a little stunned, and said, "Soft eggs can only shoot!" ”

“Jellyfish！ (soft egg)" The word echoed in Gan Guoyang's ears, soft egg, is he really a soft egg?

can only shoot, has no strength, is afraid of confrontation, and can't shoot if he encounters a tough opponent; The defense is leaky, the top defense is not effective, and the rebounds cannot be controlled. Gan Guoyang thought about it carefully and found that all these shortcomings on his body would be labeled as "unique to soft eggs".

10：0！ A game without suspense, the Guns and Roses failed miserably and did not score a goal.

Gan Guoyang stood in the middle of the field with his waist crossed, his head bowed, and a sense of powerlessness came to him. He had lost the game before, but this one made him feel real pain for the first time, and the extreme unwillingness and sadness permeated his heart.

He knew that this was a real difference in strength.

Gan Guoyang began to reflect on his style of play and his style of play. His shooting is really good, but he's also becoming more and more reliant on his shots.

What's more, his jump shot did not reach the point of invincibility, in the face of strong defense, his disadvantage in the strength confrontation was unobstructed, and he couldn't even get the space to shoot, how to throw the ball in?

Moreover, he also found that he was actually afraid of confrontation and hand-to-hand combat with those old blacks. Why not use it when you can score goals in an easier way? So he became more and more floating, and he became more and more reluctant to go to the inside line.

Although Gan Guoyang is the player with the highest guns, he is fighting for rebounds on the inside and picking up leaks and defenses, compared to Gan Guoyang, who is more like a pitcher, an immature pitcher.

But Gan Guoyang didn't want to be a pitcher, and the player he designed in the NBALive game was not a pitcher, but a center! An inside line!

What he is doing now is too far from what he envisioned.

"Cousin, let's go, next time we'll win it back!" Gan Guohui also came up to comfort Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang felt that his nose was slightly sour, "It's okay, I'll find it back in the future." ”

The three of them lowered their heads and went off the field with unwillingness, and after that, they didn't participate in the rest of the challenge, just watched from the sidelines, watching the cancer team kill the teams on the Coastal Stadium one by one.

At this time, Gan Guoyang was thinking about his basketball path in the future, and he had decided to no longer rely on his own shooting, but to really devote himself to the confrontation and be a center to support the team and fight on the inside!

"A center forward, he will die on the inside!" Gan Guoyang said. In the future, this sentence has also become the motivation to motivate one interior player after another to keep moving forward.
