“Beat-PT!Beat-PT,Beat-PT!”
Before the start of the second half, the Great Western Conference Forum's shouts actually sounded in the NBA. You should know that in the past, only the Lakers themselves would be treated as "Beat-LA" away. This is not a shame, but a kind of honor.
Now at the Lakers' own home court, fans have begun to express their desire to defeat the Trail Blazers in the most direct way. In the past, this was only the case when they were against the Celtics.
After all, the Lakers were all broken by the Trail Blazers in the first two home games this season. The Clippers were also defeated by the Trail Blazers the day before yesterday. The Los Angeles people don’t want to see the Trail Blazers take away another victory here no matter what.
Therefore, even if the Lakers were already leading by more than 20 points in the first half, fans still hope that the Lakers would completely suppress the Trail Blazers with the mentality of "eliminating evil".
Gan Guoyang stood in the center of the court with his waist on his waist, expressionless. In his ears, the "Beat-PT" like a tsunami gives people a huge sense of oppression. In this yellow ocean, the Trail Blazers' red jersey is like a blood stain on the golden armor, and people can't wait to erase it.
The second half of the game was about to begin. At this time, Gan Guoyang walked to Kosey's side, stepped forward and hugged Kosey's shoulder, and then said to him in his ear: "I will grab it later, please pay attention to protecting the inside."
After saying that, Gan Guoyang walked away. Cauchy looked at Gan Guoyang. He understood what Gan Guoyang meant. He wanted to fight for his life as soon as he came out of the second half, and was preparing to use a gambling defense to win the lead and strive to restore the morale of the team.
"The second half of the game began, 66:41, the Lakers led by 25 points, and they served first, which was a situation that no one expected. The Trail Blazers played badly today. They were ambushed by the Lakers and suffered heavy losses. In the second half, let us see if the Trail Blazers will turn around. The third quarter will be very important. The second half of the game begins!"
As the Lakers sent the ball, the Trail Blazers entered the battle with a disadvantage of 25 points in the second half. The first half of the third quarter was indeed extremely critical. If the Trail Blazers cannot narrow the score gap to less than 20 points in about five minutes, then this game will basically be explained, and the Trail Blazers urgently need to change.
As soon as the Magician passed halfway through the game, he began to stick his big ass and push Drexler, who was defending him, behind him, and then began to observe his teammates' running position. As a point guard about 6-foot-9, his height gave him a broad vision, dislocation ability in offense and comprehensive skills, but it also created the Magician's high turnover rate - of course, this is also related to his gorgeous and adventurous passing style.
Worthy slipped through the baseline and started to be in the low position on the left. This is a common style of play used by the Lakers at the beginning, allowing two low-level masters, Jabbar or Worthy, to open up the situation, and it is best to involve the opponent's defense.
At this time, Gan Guoyang stepped forward and blocked the Magician and Wothy's pass route. While reaching out to approach his opponent AC Green, he signaled to the referee that he did not give up on the defender, but at the same time, he focused on the Magician and Wothy. As long as the referee was not serious about such a defensive trick, he would not punish him for illegal defense.
Just when the Magician gave up passing the ball to Worthy and AC Green was consciously coming forward to make a blocking shot for the Magician, Gan Guoyang suddenly robbed the game and double-teamed the Magician with Drexler. Naturally, the Magician was not panicked or rushed. He had seen such scenes for too many times. As long as the double-teamed, there would be a gap. AC Green had turned to the inside to cut the empty space.
The magician naturally took a step back and did not lock his space for Gan Guoyang and Drexler. At the same time, he did not look at Green. The ball holder threw and pushed the ball, and the ball flew straight to AC Green, a beautiful No-look-pass.
In the Lakers, the most basic criterion for a player to play is to be able to catch the Magician's pass. If this is not possible, there will be no chance for the Lakers. AC Green can of course catch the Magician's pass, but he did not receive this goal because Jerome Cauchy predicted their cooperation early and snatched the Magician's pass one step ahead of time.
However, in order to grab the ball, Cauchy rushed to the ground too hard. However, he reacted quickly and immediately pushed the ball out to Terry Porter. When Porter took the ball and looked up, Gan Guoyang had already rushed through half the court!
This ball was completely calculated by Gan Guoyang. He was betting that the magician would pass the ball inward, betting that Cauchy could snatch the ball, and betting that his teammates could take the ball down, so he gave up the backcourt, gave up the front attack in the inside and quickly went down. When he looked back, Porter's ball had already flew towards him and fell.
"No one stopped him in front of Gan, and he dunked with both hands! The Trail Blazers scored the first goal in the second half, with a wonderful defense and a wonderful fast attack."
If the Magician did not pass the ball to AC, if AC received the ball, if Cauchy did not listen to Gan Guoyang's steal, then this ball would be a defensive mistake. However, Gan Guoyang won the bet. This is not a mystery, but based on his understanding of the Lakers' tactics, he has played 17 games on this field and fought with the Lakers 32 times. He has no way to see through every pass of the Magician, but he always has success.
After scoring the goal, Gan Guoyang pointed at Cauchy and nodded to him. Cauchy also nodded. As the defensive gates of the Trail Blazers inside and outside, the two seemed to be finally about to start tightening the gates.
This goal was not just a two-pointer, it greatly boosted the morale of the Trail Blazers. Then Gan Guoyang gave Jabbar a big hat in the inside. The Trail Blazers launched a fast break again. Drexler forced a dunk through Wosi in the fast break, but was pushed down by Wosi and flew out horizontally.
"Oh my God, this is a malicious foul. Drexler wanted to dunk Worthy on the head, but was pushed down... Oh! Gan rushed up, as if he wanted to ask Worthy for an explanation!"
Gan Guoyang stepped forward and squirted trash at him, and Woxi was naturally not showing any weakness. The two separated only after the referee and teammates stopped them.
Worthy was called a technical foul for this goal, Drexler made two free throws, and the Trail Blazers also had one offensive right.
Riley saw bad signs on the sidelines. Worthy's goal was really too impulsive. Although it was not good to be deducted by someone on the head, Drexler's two free throws have narrowed the score to 21 points, and the Trail Blazers also have the ball rights.
"Potter served the sideline ball, Gan directly asked for the ball in the low three-second zone. Porter passed the ball, Gan received the ball and turned around, dunked vigorously! The speed of turning was too fast!"
Riley was also loudly teaching the players a lesson on calm down on the sideline. Porter had already passed the ball to the inside with a high hanging ball. Gan Guoyang pushed Green away, received the ball and turned directly to the basket, and scored a powerful slam dunk with both hands.
Simple, rough, but slightly thin AC Green had no choice but to prevent it, and Jabbar couldn't make up for it.
Riley's forehead was slightly sweaty after being scored by his opponent in one minute. This was not what he wanted to see. He immediately called a timeout to make adjustments.
"Tough!Tough!We-need-Tough!(Tough, tough, we must be tough!)" Riley doesn't care how to adjust Gan Guoyang. He shouted at his teammates on the bench. Adelman also understood that what the Trail Blazers were not bad at tactics, but their spirits. Their spirits were almost worn out this month, and they were going to be regained now.
Riley is also asking the players to be tough because it is a head-on game.
In the subsequent game, the two sides fell into a tug-of-war. The Trail Blazers did not reach a super climax, and the Lakers did not rush. The bodies of both sides were extremely fierce, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to score. However, at this time, the Trail Blazers, who were younger and stronger in the interior, began to show their advantages.
Unlike previous games, Gan Guoyang's attack turned into a melee fight to the inside. He did not show his pull-up jump shot, did not shoot three-pointers, nor did he perform left-hand shots. He just killed the inside without any effort. The Lakers either watched him score or foul.
The Magicians can still pass the ball well and rely on themselves to score continuously, but the Trail Blazers still bit the score back little by little. At the end of the third quarter, the score difference became 14 points, and the fourth quarter took 3 minutes, and the score difference became 9 points, 5 minutes, 6 minutes, 7 minutes, 5 points, 10 minutes, and 3 points.
"The last twenty seconds left before the end of the game, and the Lakers are still leading by 2 points. This is the most determined point-chasing battle I have ever seen. The Trail Blazers' resilience is surprising. From the 25-point gap to 2 points, they took 23 minutes, and now there are the last twenty seconds left!" Dick Stockton also devoted himself to the game, and the competition between the two sides was too fierce.
"This should be the last timeout for the Blazers. He has to seize this opportunity and see whose hands they will hand the ball to."
"Let's take a look, Gan, Oh my God, he was sweating so hard that he was soaked all over. He shouldn't have a minute rest in the second half. He had already scored 44 points, his shooting percentage was amazing. Gan tried his best in the second half."
At this time, Gan Guoyang was standing on the court. He felt a little tired. He took the initiative to refuse Adelman's request to replace him. He played the second half and scored 30 points and 17 rebounds in the second half. This is a data that many people can't get in the whole game.
In a critical attack, Adelman set up tactics and handed over the initiative to Porter. Porter's choice at a critical moment is indeed reassuring.
"Gan Guoyang serves outside, it seems that the ball is going to be shot for someone else. Porter received the ball, was double-teamed and covered, and broke through from the middle, without a chance, and passed it to Cauchy at the bottom line. Cauchy also rushed inward, but still had no chance! It came out, Drexler received the ball, jumped! Didn't make a jump shot!" The glider missed.
Lakers fans were about to jump up on the sidelines, and there was not much time left, but this was Sabonis jumped hard in the three-second zone. He used his height advantage to beat Green and Jabbar, took the lead in a bunch of hands, and drove the ball to the right.
"I'm outside the three-point line! Why is he there! The bottom three-point line, no one defends!"
Gan Guoyang stood in front of the Lakers' bench, facing Pat Riley, with no defense and taking a three-pointer.
The ball was still flying in the air, but after it landed, Gan Guoyang turned around and pointed to Pat Riley nearby.
"Tell-me, who-is-MVP? (Tell me, who is the MVP?)"
At the same time, Gan Guoyang scored a three-pointer, 127:126, and the game ended.
