Unlike in the '60s, the Baker League is no longer a high-level league with a high concentration of professional players, and although it is home to some of the best players on the streets of Philadelphia and has a tough style of play, these amateur youngsters can't compete with retired superstars, especially Irving, who has only been retired for two years, let alone superstars in their prime.

Chamberlain is extremely talented, physically powerful and unparalleled in the world, at nearly 60 years old, he can still call the wind and rain in the amateur arena, and can also dunk one on the opponent's head, which is why he likes to play everywhere so much.

And today Chamberlain is really enjoyable, specifically being abused by Gan Guoyang, Gan Guoyang did not save face for Lao Zhang, and used his young body and superb skills to beat Chamberlain, who was in his fifties, to find teeth on the inside.

After playing, Chamberlain was finally unhappy, threw the ball and said that he didn't play, at that time Gan Guoyang had already scored 50 points on Chamberlain's head, how to shoot, how to shoot, other people's pinching was simply in vain.

However, Dr. J still has the strength to fight with Gan Guoyang, after all, he has just retired, and everyone is also playing, and Owen can often give wonderful dunks, making the audience cheer loudly, as if reminiscing about the glory of the past.

Sonny Hill on the side could see that Gan Guoyang was doing his best, once a player of this level did his best in the amateur arena, others would not have much impact on the result of the game if they were replaced by primary school students, and he decisively stopped the game, not wanting Chamberlain to lose face again.

But Dr. J motioned to Hill that he wanted the game to continue.

'It was said that Hammond was on my head and he scored 50 points at halftime, but I would say it couldn't be, he couldn't have scored 50 points, but now, somebody does get 50 points in the Baker league half. Dr. J said to everyone.

In the match with Joe Hammond in Rock Park, the Destroyer thought he scored 50 points in the half, while Dr. J thought it was impossible, and in the end, the duel between the two became a legend on the streets, praised but no one knew the truth.

Gan Guoyang didn't know if this was Dr. J's conspiracy, so he let himself do his best in the Baker League, and then let Gan Guoyang have no strength to play in tomorrow's game.

However, Gan Guoyang's superb street ball skills still conquered everyone present, and everyone at the scene could see that Gan Guoyang did not play orthodox basketball here, but had a strong street style, and his skillful crotch dribbling and spinning top-like turn made it hard to believe that he was a six-foot-ten center.

Of course, he didn't score another 50 points in the second half, he still had to save a little face for Chamberlain, and in the end he scored 70 points and led the team to an easy victory.

In the evening, Chamberlain was angry and didn't want to eat with Gan Guoyang, so he went to the hotel alone to find a girl to spend the night with him, so Gan Guoyang and Dr. J found a small restaurant to get some supper.

Before this game, the friendship between Gan Guoyang and Owen was not too deep, after all, the two were not players of the same generation, and when Gan Guoyang was just entering his peak, Dr. J's basketball career was over.

In the few game confrontations, the two have no grudges, and against the Philadelphia 76ers, Gan Guoyang and Moses Malone and Barkley obviously have deeper roots - of course, it is more of a bickering and gambling with Barkley.

This time, the two were able to sit down to eat something and have a chat, and if Drexler knew, he would definitely be jealous of Gan Guoyang, Dr. J has always been Drexler's idol.

An iconic figure in the NBA for a while, Dr. J was unlike many black players in that he was humble, elegant, and well-talked, and he was never known for trash talk in the league, but as a gentle and humble gentleman.

His dunks on the court also look graceful and flowing, without the violent air of Dominic Wilkins, and in the post-game interview, he was the media favorite except for Magic Johnson, with whom he always maintained a good relationship.

In Philadelphia, Dr. J is also very beloved, and the small restaurant that Gan Guoyang came with him is free of charge to Dr. J forever.

The two ate Kansai veal imported from Japan, chatted, and finally talked about basketball, and Gan Guoyang was most interested in the championship.

Dr. J's 1983 championship was a hard-won and heart-wrenching affair, losing just one game in three series, setting a record for the NBA playoffs.

"Maintain an absolute desire to win, when you and your team get to a certain point, the mental strength is immensely strong, and the desire to win will make you focus all your attention and focus on winning and winning titles, and sometimes that's more important than anything else." Dr. J talks about the 1983 championship and his deepest feelings.

"There were times when I was just too casual and I lacked some motivation, like in 1977 when we thought we were going to win and we had the title in our pockets, but it turned out ...... We're in the dirt in Portland. And then year after year, of course, Moses came very, very important, but I believe that even without Moses, in 1983, we would have won the championship, and we had reached the limit of our desire for it. ”

"When your hunger for wins and championships is gone, sometimes the team is finished, completely finished, and we died badly in 1984 and were ...... by the Nets The feeling of failure is like jumping out of an airplane and failing to open a parachute in mid-air. We thought we could open the parachute, we had Charles, but it didn't work, I understand, we didn't have a parachute at all. ”

Dr. J's eyes were still bright when he talked about the championship, but his face darkened when he remembered the painful defeat that followed the following year.

Gan Guoyang sat there and listened quietly, he was already familiar with the stories of those champions, but when he heard those champions tell him about the ups and downs, the feeling was completely different.

Gan Guoyang believes that this is a transmission of spiritual power, and in the eyes of those basketball superstars, Gan Guoyang is no longer a yellow-skinned boy from across the ocean, but a superstar who can inherit the champion's style.

"I'm sure I'm going to win the championship this year, we're in unbeatable shape." Gan Guoyang said confidently, and took a bite of veal by the way.

"Hahaha, you're now the team with the best odds to win the championship, a little bit higher than the Detroit Pistons. But, I bet you're not the best contenders for a championship in the eyes of a lot of longtime fans, as well as NBA players. Dr. J said with a smile.

Gan Guoyang listened and nodded, he knew that from the perspective of records, the Trail Blazers ranked first in the league and the team's book strength was strong, but there were still many people who believed that the Trail Blazers did not have the temperament of a champion, which more or less came from people's prejudice against Gan Guoyang, the core of the Trail Blazers.

In the 1988 season, the Trail Blazers had a better record, and Gan Guoyang's data and performance were even better, but Gan Guoyang still lost to Jordan in the selection of MVP.

At that time, it was rumored that the reason why Gan Guoyang failed to win the MVP and fell behind a lot of votes in the selection was that Gan Guoyang was a yellow person, and the NBA could not accept that their regular season MVP was a yellow-skinned foreigner.

Dr. J looked at Gan Guoyang, ate the last piece of meat on the plate, leaned over and said to Gan Guoyang: "Your team is very strong, and the overall strength is very outstanding, but you still have to play MVP performance, win an MVP, and prove to everyone that you are not only the best team, but also the best player." ”

As of the current position, Gan Guoyang's performance in rebounding is still stable, and the rebounding king is basically in the bag, but the performance in scoring has declined significantly compared with last year, 11 games have passed, his average score per game is "only" 24 points, although he has had two 40 plus and two 30 plus games, but his scoring fluctuates greatly, and there are often several shots to get a dozen points.

This is related to the overall tactics of the Trail Blazers, Adelman pursues the reasonableness of the team's shots and the dispersion of the score, and several players on the outside are very strong in scoring, and Gan Guoyang is currently very happy to share the ball with his teammates.

"Of course, I don't want you to snatch the shots of your teammates, your coaches will have their own arrangements, and snatching the shots is a bad thing. But I'm sure you can play better, now you're playing too little, 34 minutes per game, are you the same age as me? Your game will be more and more difficult in the future, and there will always be a chance to solve the opponent in three quarters. Play a performance that shakes the league, and you'll see that that kind of heart will follow. ”

Gan Guoyang listened to Dr. J's words, remembered his performance in the last dozen games, and indeed had the feeling of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.

This loose and tight state at the beginning of the regular season is acceptable, but as the season deepens, the teams run in well, the strong teams will get into the state more and more, and at that time, the Trail Blazers will also have their own problems, injury problems, tactical run-in problems, schedule problems, and the game will definitely get more and more difficult.

In fact, this six-game tour is a huge challenge, and Gan Guoyang realizes that he should not be fearless, even if the strength of the Trailblazers is indeed higher than that of other teams, in competitive sports, there is no room for negligence.

"I've learned that even if it's just catching a rabbit, you have to give it your all." Gan Guoyang also finished eating the last piece of meat and said.
