"Good evening everyone, this is Chicago TV. Tonight we will broadcast the Chicago Bulls home game against the Portland Trail Blazers. I am Calvin Knight. I am very happy to explain this game as the host. The guest who commented with me is a retired player from the Bulls, Bob Love, Hello Bob."

"Hello Calvin."

"Before the match between the Bulls and the Trail Blazers, let's first introduce the current situation of both sides. This game is the second game of the two sides this season. In the last game in Portland, the Trail Blazers defeated the Bulls more easily. At present, the Trail Blazers are still ranked first in the West with a record of 27 wins and 14 losses. However, they have won one wins and three losses in the last four games, and their condition is not so good." Calvin Knight introduced the situation of the Trail Blazers.

"Indeed, the Trail Blazers are in a state of ups and downs. At the beginning of the new year, they were very strong in their momentum, defeating the 76ers and the Lakers in a row and standing at the top of the West. However, their main small forward Van derwich was troubled by injuries and could not play, which caused them to lose two of their four games against the three Texas teams, and then recently lost to the two plateau teams, the Denver Nuggets and the Utah Jazz. The score difference between the two games is very small, we can see that Van derwich is not here, and the Trail Blazers' outside scoring ability is a problem." Commentary guest Bob Love continued.

Bob Love is an All-Star small forward who has played for the Chicago Bulls for nine seasons. It is reported that his jersey will retire with the Bulls in the next few seasons.

"Yes, Van derwich's defense was often criticized by many parties before, but without Van derwich, the Trail Blazers' offense was indeed greatly affected. They did not have the strongest scorer, an excellent outside offensive center, and a critical moment of attacking players. It can be said that the Trail Blazers' entire outside line was almost half paralyzed." Knight added.

"You can say this, but it's not that serious, because Drexler was topped the starter. Drexler performed very well last season, but he has not received Ramsey's full trust, and his playing time is too much and sometimes less. Recently, the Trail Blazers have been troubled by injuries, Drexler has gained more playing time, and his performance is becoming more and more like an All-Star player. However, his outside shooting ability has always been unstable, limiting his performance at critical moments, which is also the reason why they lost in recent small-point difference games." Love's evaluation is still relatively objective.

"But Gan's performance at critical moments seems to be restricted. In fact, he has performed with a big heart in the early games of the season, and even gave a buzzer-beating victory in the game against the Lakers at the beginning of the year, but it is difficult for him to even touch the ball in these games."

"That's right, because all teams have begun to strengthen their research and targeting of Gansu. At the beginning of the season, he was a point of being released, and now he is the focus of the defense of each team." Love revealed that Gansu Guoyang is no longer as magical as before.

After playing against the Indiana Pacers, the Trail Blazers faced challenges from three Texas teams, Dallas Mavericks, San Antonio Spurs, and Houston Rockets. After playing these three games, the Trail Blazers had another big battle with the Mavericks in Dallas.

In these three games, the Trail Blazers first won the Dallas Mavericks at home, then ran to Texas to walk the Texas Triangle, first losing to the experienced San Antonio Spurs, and then destroyed the Rockets at Houston Space City, but capsized in Dallas.

Such a performance of winning and losing, winning and losing shows that the Trail Blazers are very unstable without Van der Vanessa.

It was only after losing it that we knew how to cherish it. After the Trail Blazers had no Van derwich, the players realized how weak they were when they were on the offense.

For example, in the game losing to the Mavericks and the Spurs, both sides competed until the end, but the Spurs had Gewen and the Mavericks had Aquili. When it was necessary to test the scoring ability of the outside superstars at critical moments, the Trail Blazers' Paxson and Drexler obviously couldn't stand it.

Later, in the match against the Utah Jazz and the Denver Nuggets, the entire Trail Blazers still did not escape the vicious circle of weak offense at critical moments. They both fell to the last moment in both games and suffered their first three-game losing streak in the season.

After consecutive losses, the Trail Blazers still occupies the first place in the West. More importantly, in the game against the Bulls on January 22, Van dervic finally made a comeback.

In the game without Van der Vic, the Trail Blazers won two wins and four losses, which also made them miss the team's number one scorer.

"Van der Van der Vic should be able to release the energy of the Trail Blazers' outside line, and at the same time, the Trail Blazers' inside line suffers less double-teaming and obstacles. I believe that the Trail Blazers' inside line has experienced the pain of attracting defense in recent games without strong firepower points on the outside line."

"That's right, but the Bulls opposite them should be more troubled by the weakness of the inside offense. If Gan comes to the Bulls and Jordan, oh, I think this will be a perfect combination of internal and external lines." Bob Love, as a retired player of the Bulls, naturally began to imagine from the Bulls' perspective.

"Stop kidding, one of these two rookies ranks first in the scoring list and the other dominates the rebounding list. It's hard to believe how great these two guys will achieve in the future. If they are in the same team, then I think the main goal of other teams should be to think about whether they want to resume the ABA league!" Calvin Knight is also a guy who is full of train running.

Although Knight's words were obviously exaggerated, Jordan and Gan Guoyang have indeed become the two hottest stars in the league. Needless to say, Jordan's extremely ornamental playing style and powerful scoring ability have quickly gained a large number of fans.

On the one hand, Gan Guoyang was influenced by his skin color, which made people amazed at his current achievements; on the other hand, he was free and unrestrained and unrestrained style and personality, which also made him extremely popular among young fans.

This made Nike laugh. They just wanted to rely on these two players to open up the young fan market. Now their performance is enough to make Nike's sneakers sell well.

It is reported that the two will shoot a group of Nike sneakers together in Chicago to promote "Air-Jordan" and "G-Skyscraper". The two sneakers will also be officially launched on the market before the All-Star Game.

However, both of them are opponents on the court now, and they are all working hard to win a game.

Gan Guoyang's performance in recent games has been stable, but it is not amazing. In several extremely fierce games, Gan Guoyang failed to score a key goal in the last moment, but in fact he did not even hit the ball.

Compared with the 76ers and the Lakers in the New Year, Gan Guoyang seems to have a trend of returning to normal, although his rebounds are as powerful as ever.

In comparison, Jordan's performance has been at its peak recently. Since 1985, he has scored less than 25 points in only two games, and all the games have reached 20 points.

Four of them scored more than 30 points, one with more than 40 points. In the last game against the Indiana Pacers, he scored 38 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists and a quasi-triple double-digit data.

However, the Bulls are not strong enough. They have won one game and lost one game in the last few games, which is quite unstable.

"The game is about to begin. We see that the players on the court shook hands and greeted each other. Gan and Jordan hugged each other and looked very close. They both signed Nike this year, and both of them were contracts beyond imagination. So their sneakers looked very similar. Jordan's pair was red and white as the main tone, and black; Gan's pair was black and white as the main tone, and red as the matching color of their jerseys. "

"Their shoes look really ugly, which is far from the sneakers I often wear when playing basketball. However, it is said that young people nowadays like this new sneaker that is very fancy and whistle, and is also a bit bulky."

The debate between Jordan and Gan Guoyang's sneakers is still not over. Every time the commentator explains the game between the Trail Blazers and the Bulls, he will always be teased by these two guys' sneakers.

However, the market and fans' choices will not lie, and Nike will use sales to prove who is right.

"Hey Michael, why do I think these shoes are a bit heavy?"

"I don't know, but I can still fly, including flying over your skyscraper."

"I'm not a skyscraper that won't move. You'd better be careful about your eggs."

On the court, although Gan Guoyang and Jordan were not in the same position, the two of them chatted with each other at any time, and even mocked each other.

Before the game, Nike's people came to Chicago and met with Gan Guoyang and Jordan, telling them that they would shoot a sneaker advertisement for both of them in Chicago after the game.

I don’t care much about how to shoot Gan Guoyang and Jordan, anyway, I listen to the director.

In private, the two gradually became friends. Although they didn't like each other, Gan Guoyang felt that Jordan was too frivolous and chewed gum with a golden chain, looking like a second-generation ancestor.

Jordan believes that Gan Guoyang looks like a mean lawyer wearing sportswear. He never gives people face when speaking and always flirts with Jordan in words, which makes Jordan very annoyed.

On the field, the two sides' impression of each other has not changed at all.

"Michael held the ball on the right, broke through, and made a layup with a change of hands! Oh my God, the perfect layup with a change of hands, Oh my God, how did he do it?"

During the game, Jordan used a wonderful hand change layup to detonate the whole game. He broke through 45 degrees from the right side, started from the edge of the three-second zone on the right, but avoided Gan and Sampson's block and successfully made a layup on the left side.

"Fuck! What did this guy do!" Gan Guoyang shook his head helplessly and took the ball back to the bottom line to serve.

"How is it? I said I can fly over skyscrapers." Jordan spread his hands and said to Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang ignored Jordan and went straight to the frontcourt after serving the ball.

At this time, the score on the field was 26:25, and the Trail Blazers were still one point ahead, and there were 15 seconds left before the end of the first quarter.

Gan Guoyang made a wall in the left horn position to cover Drexler and Paxson, and the Trail Blazers were looking for a last chance to attack.

But the Bulls were very defensive in the last ball. Instead of hudging in the three-second zone, all the players moved to press the defense and squeezed the Trail Blazers players out.

Seeing that the Trail Blazers' tactics could not be played, Gan Guoyang raised his hand to ask for the ball in the horn position, and Drexler threw the ball to Gan Guoyang.

"Gan catches the ball, turns inside, and goes to the three-second zone... a one-arm dunk! His strength is incredible, and his speed is the same. After turning around, he grabs the ball with one hand and breaks into the inside. The Bulls' inside is empty. He dunks with one hand. It's so exciting. The first quarter ends, 28:25."
