At the end of the first half, the game between the two sides reached 49:51. The Trail Blazers continued to lead by two points. Gan Guoyang played the full first half, scoring 22 points, 6 rebounds, and a very high shooting percentage.

This first half is a typical traditional style of play around the center, similar to the Trail Blazers led by Ramsey three or four years ago. It uses Gan Guoyang's strong attack power to launch tactics around him, and of course Drexler's attack at low post to supplement it.

Such an offensive efficiency is very good. The Trail Blazers' offense is not fierce. You can see from the scoring that the tactics are stable and there are no ups and downs.

In comparison, although the Pistons firmly bit the Trail Blazers, they raised the offensive rhythm very quickly. Thomas and Dumas in the backcourt took on most offensive tasks. Several players in the inside did not have a good scoring opportunity and were suppressed by the Trail Blazers' inside.

"Everything is going as planned, our performance is very stable. The third quarter will be the winning and losing quarter. Porter, Cauchy, Barker, Avidas, you have to take on more scoring tasks. In this quarter, we have to strive for full bloom and play team attacks. We have to adjust and continue to lead the rhythm of the game."

In the locker room, Adelman was quite satisfied with the team's performance in the first half. It was expected that the backcourt defense could not keep an eye on Thomas and Dumas. The explosive power of the outside players was generally stronger, but they often lacked stamina.

In the first half, Porter and Cauchy both got relatively sufficient rest. Both of them actually had good scoring explosiveness and scoring ability. Adelman hoped that they could shoulder the banner of offense in the second half.

"Observation, offense, attack again, this is what we have to do. We have laid the foundation in the first half, just to win this game for this moment, and then be ready to say goodbye to them!"

Adelman spoke with a slight domineering voice to inspire the morale of the players. The Trail Blazers are in good condition tonight.

However, the Pistons would not surrender easily like this, not to mention that this is at their home court. If they lose another game, they will directly win the championship point by the Trail Blazers. In any case, they will grit their teeth and hold it back.

"Gan, we are always planning the game, but the game is never planned. You are our regulator, and the situation on the field must be stabilized. Jerome, Terry and Barker will not break through their defense so easily. The Detroit forward line is really not easy to deal with, put pressure, put pressure on."

Every time after setting up the tactics, Adelman would bring Gan Guoyang aside for separate communication. As the saying goes, the plan cannot keep up with the changes. Adelman is making plans for the game, but Daly will definitely counterattack and everything will not go on smoothly. This is why the basketball court needs superstars, because superstars can break through the plan or reshape the plan.

Gan Guoyang will always be the planner who is not planned by Adelman. Whenever there are various situations on the field, he can save the situation with strong offensive and defensive capabilities.

"No problem, the Detroiter's inside form is not very good tonight, but it's hard to say in the second half. That guy Ranbill was not that easy to handle, and our forward line was very restrained by him."

Although Gan Guoyang hates Ranbir, he admits that Ranbir is indeed very powerful. Since the beginning of the finals, Cauchy, Buck Williams, who have always performed well in the previous playoffs, and Kevin Duckworth on the bench, have all been defeated by Ranbir.

Buck Williams' ability to grab the frontcourt rebounds was completely curbed by Ranbill. This heavy white center didn't bounce much, but his backcourt rebound protection was very good, second only to Gan Guoyang in the whole league, and his rebounding posture was terrible. He liked to spread his arms and then began to wave his arms and elbows when he jumped. Those who rushed to grab the frontcourt rebounds might be put to the ground with one elbow. Then Ranbill would turn around and look at the referee with an innocent look on his face.

Cauchy's empty cut at the basket was survived, and he used his ability to create a chance to score points. He was also restrained by the evil monster entrenched in the basket. The scene that often appeared in the game was Cauchy, and then Cauchy fell down and the ball was in Lanbill's hands.

"That's right, he is ten times harder than expected, so I need your performance to hit him, and constantly hit him." Adelman said to Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang is the only person who has no choice but to do anything. Basically, Gan Guoyang just casually poops on Lan Bill's head, but Gan Guoyang did not really hurt Lan Bill. Lan Bill continues to play his role. He just can't defend against Gan Guoyang alone. Anyway, no one in the league can defend against it.

Gan Guoyang nodded. He knew that this was a difficult task. It was okay to score on Ranbir's head, but it was not that easy to really kill Ranbir. This guy was not bad and thick-skinned, so it would be nice not to be killed by him.

On the other side of the Pistons' locker room, Daly was not idle either. He knew that the game had fallen into the pace of the Trail Blazers and they had to make changes if they wanted to win. Therefore, he criticized the Pistons' players for some poor performances in the first half, especially in the poor performances in the inside and at the low post. If it weren't for the high shooting percentage of the outside, the Pistons would never be just two points behind in the first half.

Both sides made adjustments and preparations, and after resting for 15 minutes, they returned to the center of the venue.

Before the second half of the two sides were about to start, Ranbir stretched his arm while slowly walking to the Trail Blazers' bench and said to all the Trail Blazers' substitutes: "You guys, all, fuck, all, shit!"

After saying that, Ranbir left with a smile on his face and returned to the center of the venue to prepare for the game. Gan Guoyang looked at Ranbir and knew that he had run to the bench to provoke again because he saw Adelman's face turned blue.

"You still look so disgusting after taking out the trash." Gan Guoyang said to Lan Bill.

"Oh, I just took out the garbage in the garbage dump. I just told them, you guys are all fucking shit." Ranbir said with a smile.

"I will let you know who is shit, Bill." Gan Guoyang said and pushed Lan Bill, Lan Bill immediately returned to him, Gan Guoyang came to him again, and Lan Bill returned to him again.

The game has not started yet, and the two of them just push me lightly, and I push you lightly. It looks like they are having fun fighting. In fact, both of them are suppressing their anger and not being able to help but punch the other party and being punished by the referee.

The second half of the game began soon. As Adelman expected, the Pistons changed very quickly. When the Pistons made their first attack, Thomas suddenly accelerated and rushed straight to the inside. Rick Mahon cut into the pass to receive Thomas and made a strong layup in the inside. This was Rick Mahon's first point in this game. He was very determined in this attack.

Both sides tied the ball at once, but when they turned around, Terry Porter hit a three-pointer on the left wing. This was a pick-and-roll cooperation between him and Sabonis. Sabonis blocked Porter like a wall, giving him enough shooting space.

This is also Porter's first three-pointer in this game. It seems that the players who performed poorly in the first half are slowly recovering.

However, Gan Guoyang competed with Lan Bill on the court because Gan Guoyang began to grab the frontcourt rebounds.

In the whole first half, Gan Guoyang only grabbed 6 rebounds, all of which were backcourt rebounds. Because both sides were slow in pace, few offensive rounds, and they were very cautious in their shooting, the backcourt rebound protection on both sides was quite excellent.

But in the second half, Gan Guoyang believed that if he wanted the Trail Blazers' forward line to truly exert his power, he had to take the lead in disrupting the Pistons' inside position and create trouble and pressure on Ranbir. The best way was to grab the frontcourt rebounds.

Ranbir soon discovered that Gan Guoyang no longer returned to defense as he did in the first half, but instead entangled with him at the basket after every move by his teammate, and then fought desperately for rebounds.

Gan Guoyang has great strength, and Lan Bill can't bear it. Moreover, Gan Guoyang is very thief in dealing with Lan Bill, and he uses everything to pull and kick and block. During a rebounding process, Gan Guoyang pressed Lan Bill's abdomen with one elbow, which was very hidden. He just waved his arms and rubbed it, then got the frontcourt rebound and dunk it.

"Fuck! Why are you so dirty playing ball? Referee, didn't you see him elbowing me?"

Gan Guoyang almost laughed after hearing Lan Bill's defense. Even the referee was stunned. Lan Bill actually complained that others were dirty in playing basketball.

Of course, Lan Bill would not be willing to suffer such treatment. He turned around and pushed Gan Guoyang out of the bottom line in defense. Gan Guoyang then flew directly into the bottom line audience. Lan Bill was heavy, had a great inertia, and did it on purpose, and had a great momentum, so Gan Guoyang was not a fake fall, but was really taken out.

The referee immediately blew up Ranbir's foul. Ranbir spread his hands to the referee, but this time he did not appeal. He did it on purpose. Gan Guoyang did not get angry, but stood up from the bottom line with the ball and prepared to start the attack again.

Chuck Daly on the sidelines was a little anxious and began to loudly remind Ranbill to calm down because Ranbill never had a fight for intention. Every foul and every malicious injury of others was purposeful, not just for revenge like now.

Obviously, Lan Bir was stirred up by Gan Guoyang.
