Gan Guoyang said such words really surprised many people, including head coach Ramsey, who after listening to what Gan Guoyang said, criticized this "thorny head" for being too confident and not knowing how to speak in a low-key manner.

After all, this is the first game of the season. If you say so much, you will inevitably feel a sense of self-esteem.

Gan Guoyang was quite cautious in interviews with reporters last season and his speech was always very smooth, but his comments after the game were not very consistent with his style.

The Oregonian, which includes the Portland local, also "criticized" Gan Guoyang for his lack of propriety, but the media also praised the Trail Blazers' performance in this game, especially their defense showed a "different" situation, which had an "unexpected" effect in disrupting the Suns' defense.

Of course, with the level of ordinary media practitioners, it is difficult to see the various tricks among them. However, some experts who study basketball skills and tactics have seen some of the defensive tricks of the Trail Blazers, especially the Trail Blazers were hailed as several "illegal defense" technical fouls in this game, which made them see the clues.

But this is just an ordinary regular season game after all, and soon it became a video and data game, forgotten by people in the corner of memory.

For professional players, their eyes must always look forward and stare at the next game.

For the Trail Blazers, the first week of the game is not too difficult, and it is even a bit simple, because their next two opponents are the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Clippers in the same division.

But this does not mean that these two games can be taken lightly. After Gan Guoyang returned home with Bellman at the end of the game, the first thing they did was to turn on the video camera, take out the videotapes of the Warriors game last season and start researching. In order to facilitate the study of tactics, Bellman copied all the videotapes in the Trail Blazers Training Hall and took them to Gan Guoyang's home.

"The Warriors seem to be much different from the Suns in lineup, they are weak inside and are not good overall. However, their outside line is still quite attacking. I am really worried about Van dervich. Last season, all the small forwards who faced him played at the All-Star level." Bellman said while drinking beer and watching the video.

This is still the video of the Warriors' game last season. This season, the Warriors' lineup has undergone relatively big changes. Last year's video may not explain any problem.

"The situation has changed. Mr. Bellman, let's take a look... The Warriors have new players this season. A guy named Barry Carroll has been on the roster. This guy seems to have gone to Europe for a year, and then came back this year." Gan Guoyang looked at the battle reports of other games today and said that it is reasonable that the Warriors lost the game against the Nuggets today.

But Joe Barry Carroll in their team scored a double-double with 21 points and 14 rebounds. At the same time, his 7-foot height also attracted Gan Guoyang's attention. This is a pure high center forward.

"That's right, Barry Carroll, I've heard that he went to Italy to play last year. He was the No. 1 pick in 1980, and was selected by the Warriors. This year he is back." Bellman also thought of the Warriors' former No. 1 pick. He did not renew his contract with the Warriors because of contract issues, but went to Italy to hunt for gold.

After playing overseas for a year, he returned to the NBA. It seems that this is the only place for the No. 1 pick to develop. Judging from his performance in the first game, he is indeed worthy of the No. 1 pick.

"There is another one, and Shaot, a very powerful small forward. Van der Vic. There is also Floyd, whose name is really not like a player. There is another one here, Chris Mullin, rookie... Mullin, I always think where did I hear his name? He performed well in the first game, 15 points, but his rebounding and assists are average, which is not the same as Porter."

Gan Guoyang, a pseudo-fan, basically knows Jordan, Ewing, and Barkley. He doesn't even know the famous Chris Mullin, but he just vaguely feels that he has heard of it. It seems that he doesn't understand the name of "God's Left Hand".

However, at this time Mulin was just a rookie, and it was not as important as Gan Guoyang should pay attention to it. Moreover, the Trail Blazers' own rookie Terry Porter also performed well, with 6 points and 6 assists in the first game, only one foul, no mistakes, and a very good performance.

"It seems we should deal with it well. I think it is necessary to reduce some of Van der Vicky's defensive pressure and not always expose him to the opponent's strongest firepower." Bellman also racked his brains to improve the Blazers' defense.

"You should talk to Mr. Ramsey about this, or let me play as a small forward?" Gan Guoyang joked.

"No... Even if Drexler comes, it's not OK. This will limit Drexler's quick counterattack..." Bellman was already in deep thought. He had been trying to find a way to make up for the Trail Blazers' weak wing defense slightly.

"Okay, don't think about Mr. Bellman. These problems cannot be solved overnight. We should have a break earlier. I will get up early tomorrow and be the first to go to the training hall. Now that boy Porter is getting up very early."

In the past, Gan Guoyang was the first person to be unstoppable to the Trail Blazers Training Hall. Now Terry Porter has become a powerful challenger for Gan Guoyang. Although he is often the second one, he is often just a little later than Gan Guoyang. This puts a lot of pressure on Gan Guoyang, and he has to turn his alarm clock earlier.

The next day, Gan Guoyang got up from bed at five o'clock. At this time, Bellman was still asleep. Because he consumed a lot of brain power as an assistant coach, Bellman needed enough sleep.

So Gan Guoyang ate breakfast and went out. When he ran to the training hall, the Portland genius in October was dark.

When Gan Guoyang walked into the training hall, he was surprised to find that someone was already in the locker room.

"Damn it, did Porter actually come earlier than me?" Gan Guoyang thought Terry Porter got up earlier than him.

But Gan Guoyang looked carefully and found that it was not Terry Porter sitting in the locker room, but another substitute point guard of the team, Steve Cort.

"Hey, Corte? What are you doing?" Gan Guoyang found that something was wrong with Corte sitting there with his head down.

When he shouted, Colt was obviously scared and shook his whole body. He hurriedly turned around and found that it was Gan Guoyang.

"No...no...no...I'm just, I'm just changing clothes, I want to come here to train early, my performance last night was really bad, too bad..." Cort said, as he seemed to be hiding something in a hurry.

After entering the locker room, Gan Guoyang immediately smelled something wrong, as if it was a smoke, but it was different from the cigarette.

"What the hell are you doing?" Gan Guoyang immediately felt something was wrong. How could this guy, Colt, come to the training hall so early and be sneaky.

But soon, Cort returned to normal and smiled at Gan Guoyang and said, "My performance yesterday was really bad, so I want to get early today. I don't want to be snatched from the first substitute by the kid of No. 30."

Cort's performance was indeed quite poor yesterday. He only played for three minutes, and all the data were 0. Because he performed too poorly on the court, he was directly pressed on the bench.

Compared with Porter's remarkableness, Cort's is really a bit dirty.

So his explanation is still a bit credible. Although Gan Guoyang was full of doubts, he didn't ask any more questions. After all, both of them were rookies from last year and their relationship was quite good.

Cort was also very convinced by Gan Guoyang. The two had a good understanding on the court. Compared with Valentine, Cort still paid great attention to making goals for Gan Guoyang.

So the two changed their clothes, took the ball and started practicing.

While training on the court, Gan Guoyang discovered some problems. Colt seemed to be much more lively and was very excited and even chattered.

This is really different from Colt's usual performance. You should know that Colt was very mature in his rookie season, which is also the reason why he can get Ramsey's new trust.

Gan Guoyang knew there must be something wrong with this.

The third person to the training hall was Terry Porter. He was also very surprised when he saw Cort, but he did not doubt Cort. He felt that Cort must have come to practice diligently.

Now Porter has also regarded Corte as his competitor to win the team's first substitute point guard.

This is a very good phenomenon for the Trail Blazers. Young players compete with each other to cultivate talents and explore internal potential.

When the staff arrived and started training together, Gan Guoyang found that there was something wrong with Corte. Compared with the excitement in the morning, during the group training, he seemed to sleepwalking, and his defense often lost his position and his offense was messy.

Ramsey was so angry that he yelled on the sidelines, yelling Cort as he cursed him. Cort looked like he didn't react much, as if his whole body was stunned.

"This guy is not normal." Van dervich looked at Cort and said to Gan Guoyang, who was practicing shooting with him.

"Yes, he came earlier than me today."

"Before you? Did he take medicine?" Van dervich was obviously even more surprised by this.

Van dervich's words seemed to hit Gan Guoyang all of a sudden. He turned to look at Corte, who was being educated by Ramsey on the sidelines, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "This guy might... he really took medicine."
