According to official data statistics this season, Gan Guoyang averaged 27.4 points per game in the regular season, of which 7.4 points came from the first quarter, 3.3 points came from the second quarter, 11.7 points came from the third quarter, and 5 points came from the fourth quarter.

From this we can see that the first and third quarters are the main stages for Gansu Guoyang to score points, especially in the third quarter, the "Solar Storm" of Gansu Guoyang shocked the league. 31 points in a single quarter were achieved in the third quarter. At that time, he also defeated the Celtics in one fell swoop.

The scores in each quarter are not evenly distributed. For example, in the first quarter, Gan Guoyang is good at getting points six minutes before the opening, because both sides are in the warm-up stage at this time, and the defense is generally not too targeted and the physical strength is very good. Therefore, Gan Guoyang will seize the time to get points and score six or seven points before the first timeout.

Then, at the end of the first quarter and at the beginning of the second quarter, Gan Guoyang was mainly in an adjustment state. When the first half was about to end at the end of the second quarter, Gan Guoyang would explode again.

In the second half, the key to setting the tone in the third quarter, Gan Guoyang often exerts strength in the middle and late sections of this quarter. At this time, the confrontation between the two sides often becomes fierce. It is time for Gan Guoyang to exert his power, and his strong scoring explosive power will often be fully demonstrated in this quarter.

In the end, Gan Guoyang's scoring climax will continue to the beginning of the fourth quarter, but later, as the game is approaching, if the garbage time enters, Gan Guoyang will naturally not score any more points. If he fights to the last moment, Gan Guoyang's natural disadvantage in position will appear. It is really not easy to catch the ball as a center.

So Gan Guoyang scored not too many points in the fourth quarter.

The distribution of Gan Guoyang's scores can show the characteristics of the Trail Blazers' rhythm. The first half focuses on the beginning and end, starts with a good start and closes with a good end, and the middle substitute lineup is too good, and strives to gain an advantage in the first half.

In the second half, we focus on the combination of punches in the three and four quarters. This period is also the team's rotation period, but at this time we must seize the opportunity and make good use of reasonable formation to explode in one fell swoop to turn the advantage into the victory.

In the playoffs, the targeting of both sides has been significantly strengthened. The Nuggets tied the two strongest scoring points of the Trail Blazers at the beginning. Gan Guoyang and Van dervich were originally players who lacked connections, and the Trail Blazers' offensive difficulties were also expected.

In this case, Ramsey's strategy of insisting on letting Drexler's main attack finally played a role, successfully breaking the Nuggets' blockade and establishing an advantage in the middle of the third quarter.

At this time, the Nuggets ushered in a serious problem that they had to face - the continuous double-teaming in the first half caused the players' physical strength to be reduced in transition.

Doug Mo originally hoped to pinch Gan and Van dervic, so that the Nuggets could get a big advantage in one fell swoop. The score gap was slowly exhausted later. Drexler's outbreak disrupted his plan. Now the Nuggets have no way to stop Gan Guoyang who has broken free from the shackles and completed a fatal blow to them - this is not the failure of Doug Mo's strategy, but the gap in strength between the two sides.

"Gan took off the frontcourt rebound and successfully made a counter-skirts! He also caused Cooper's foul. His speed was shockingly fast, like lightning."

Gan Guoyang tried hard to get the frontcourt rebound, and after landing, he rushed to the other side of the basket with a very fast speed to make a counter-skirt. Cooper pulled him, but the man didn't pull it down, and he took a foul and free throw.

As you can see from Gan Guoyang's actions, this kid is very physically energetic. In the first half, except for grabbing rebounds and doing covers, Gan Guoyang basically did not sprint. The bursting movements kept his physical fitness well in the third quarter.

"Knight missed a jump shot, and the Trail Blazers counterattacked. Gan began to actively take the position again. Colt lobs and the Nuggets double-teamed, but Gan still squeezed in with the ball, pressing Cooper to hit the hook! Compared with the first half, Gan was more determined, and did not hesitate to face double-teams and attacked with all his strength."

Musberg was only half right. Gan Guoyang was indeed more determined, but the more important reason was that the Nuggets players were a little tired and the double-teaming speed slowed down significantly. Gan Guoyang used his strength to play his strength and did not play a big hook with Cooper. He just squeezed into the basket and hooked it directly, so he had no way to do anything.

Doug Mo looked at Gan Guoyang's free throw and could only stand on the sidelines and shake his head, then looked back at the "Gan Terminator" Rasmusen sitting on the bench. He was staring at the field with a blank look on his face. At this time, the Nuggets were already 12 points behind the Trail Blazers, and the third quarter was about to end.

Doug Mo thought about it and gave up the idea of ​​replacing Rasmusen and trying it out. The young man was a bit miserable by Gan Guoyang in the first game, and his self-confidence was severely hit.

Compared with black players, white players experience fewer setbacks, so sometimes they lack a competitive spirit. It is rare for rich young men like Ranbir to compete with black and old man on the court to compete with black and old man on the court. It is a rare exception. It is normal for a poor birth like Bird.

Continue to keep Cooper on the court to fight Gan Guoyang. The Nuggets' inside line tends to collapse. Gan Guoyang's play is getting smoother and smoother. As long as he gets the ball at the basket, Nuggets fans will feel nervous and know that it will be bad.

What's even more terrible is that Gan Guoyang opened and Van dervich also woke up. The Trail Blazers' strongest firepower trio finally exerted its power under the leadership of Drexler.

Even if the Nuggets can continue to play smooth cooperation on the offensive end, Inglish can still make mid-to-high jump shots, Leaf can also enter the inside to score points, Knight is quite powerful at the low post, and the balance that cannot stop the victory continues to tilt towards the Trail Blazers.

"Gan Ji was double-teamed by three people, but he passed the ball to Drexler. Drexler then transferred it to Van derwich on the right. Van derwich pointed, shook away England, broke through and layup... and passed it to Gan slam dunk again! Oh~ With perfect cooperation, the Nuggets have collapsed a little."

When a team easily plays such a perfect teamwork, the defense is mostly in a state of collapse. This collapse comes from the psychology and the sense of powerlessness of hopeless victory.

Facing the same situation of 0:2, last year's experience gave the Nuggets confidence, but as the score gap became bigger and bigger, the total score of losing this game will become 0:3, and the McNichols Center began to exude a desperate atmosphere.

Time is missing little by little, and the Nuggets have no momentum to turn the tables. They play too smoothly and violently chasing points is not their characteristic, so they can only accept their fate and wait for death.

"Buzz~"

"The game is over! The Trail Blazers defeated the Denver Nuggets away and changed the total score to 3:0. They also got the match point of the series and advanced to the hope. Unfortunately, the Nuggets failed to regain their momentum of winning three consecutive games last season. I hope they can surround the home court in the next game. At the same time, congratulations to the Trail Blazers, who have half a foot entered the division final."

After the victory, the Trail Blazers were still very calm. Gan Guoyang and his teammates stepped forward to shake hands with the Nuggets in a friendly manner, and then returned to the locker room, leaving only Drexler to be interviewed by the media on the court. In this game, he scored a game-high 33 points, plus 6 rebounds and 10 assists, making him the best player in the game.

Basically, the Trail Blazers will definitely enter the division finals, but compared with last season, they have only completed the task of "not regressing". The real challenge depends on whether they can go further.

So the Trail Blazers coaching staff began to focus on the semi-finals between the Lakers and the Rockets.

The day after the Trail Blazers and Nuggets game ended, the third game between the Lakers and the Rockets started in Houston.

The two sides started the third game with a score of 1:1, so the third game is also considered a "Little King Mountain". If the Lakers win, they can regain their home advantage. The Rockets win, and the fourth game is still at their home court, and the advantage goes without saying.

Although the Lakers accidentally lost their second home court, they were still confident before the game and the outside world was generally optimistic about the Lakers. In 1985, the Lakers could even conquer the Celtics' home court and won the away championship, so the Houston Peak Arena was naturally no problem.

But the difficulty of the game was beyond the imagination of Lakers players.

Jabbar is still a stable scoring point in the inside. In the last game, Tian Gou, who was restricted and powerful, once again chatted with the young man, and hit the double tower head with hooks and hits, proving to everyone that he is still the strongest center in the league.

The magician can still give out exquisite assists. The quick drop between him and Worthy is unstoppable. The wonderful passes again and again make the Rockets' tall and tight defense line look like loopholes everywhere.

On the Rockets, the young Olajuwon challenged Jay Blaz's authority. His hard training during the offseason made him step by step and his offensive methods were more abundant. The old Olajuwon and the thin Lambis were just as paper-like in front of Olajuwon.

Sampson is slightly inferior to each other, but what really makes the Rockets and Lakers trio stand up is their tall and strong outside line.

Although they can't block the Magician's ubiquitous passes, they can block other players' scoring channels - except for Jabbar, Magician and Worthy, other Lakers players are even more difficult to look up at the basket in front of Rockets players with an average height of 6-9.

The Lakers, who have always been good at physical strength and are good at running back and running to death, finally couldn't run in front of the young and strong Rockets.

The two sides were in a stalemate for three quarters, and in the fourth quarter, the Lakers suddenly collapsed. Jabbar, Worthy and the Magic, the rest time of the whole game was less than 15 minutes, and they were finally exhausted by the Rockets.

The Rockets' main players have less time to rest, but they can't stand the young and strong. The Rockets defeated the Lakers with a 11:3 wave, and the 8-point gap was maintained to the midfield. The Rockets unexpectedly defeated the Los Angeles Lakers at 117:108 at home.

Olajuwon's performance with 40 points and 12 rebounds shines throughout the game, overshadowing Jabbar's 33 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 blocks - Tian Gou really did his best.
Chapter completed!
