"43 points, 25 rebounds, 43 points, 25 rebounds, will this data continue to increase, will this data continue to increase? 2 minutes before the end of the game, Oh, Ramsey replaced Gan Guoyang. Indeed, there is no suspense in the game! Gan Guoyang's data was frozen at 43 points and 25 rebounds, plus 4 blocks and 5 assists, gorgeous data, and more importantly, he helped the Portland Trail Blazers to secure the victory away and avoided a three-game losing streak."

"His performance tonight is absolutely phenomenal. He once again set the scoring record and rebounding record of rookies this season. His previous record was also Gan. In the game against the Lakers on November 4, he scored 39 points in a single game. Now he averaged 17.8 points, 14.5 rebounds and 2.9 blocks per game, becoming a strong contender for the best rookie of the season."

Although Gan Guoyang maintained the highest scoring record for this rookie, his average score was not high because his scores were too big in each game.

Of course, this does not mean that Gan Guoyang's state is also fluctuating, but depends on whether Ramsey decides to use Gan Guoyang as the main attack point.

The Warriors fell down in the third quarter under the fierce offensive of Gan Guoyang. They paid the price for the strategy of not being tied up. Gan Guoyang, who felt increasingly hot, hit the Warriors' momentum with goals one by one.

The Warriors themselves are not a strong team. The weak team often plays with a breath. When they are raised, everyone is turned on, and the defending champion can also take down.

Once that breath is pushed down, it will naturally fade away and eventually collapse.

The Warriors, who lost the core player, supported the breath with their home advantage and the double guards in the backcourt, were beaten by Gan Guoyang in a combination of punches, which made the defense lose its enthusiasm and the offense lose its sense.

Afterwards, other Trail Blazers players gradually regained their feel and opened the more they played.

As the saying goes, it is difficult to help in time, and it is easy to add icing on the cake. With the collapse of the Warriors' defense line, the Trail Blazers players have regained their momentum as the No. 1 in the West, their waists are no longer sore, and their backs are no longer hurt. It is not difficult to make three or four shots in one breath.

Gan Guoyang no longer needs to play hard singles. His teammates took over the offensive banner, completely reversed the situation, and brought the opponent down at the door of the Warriors.

"You got a lot of opportunities to go out in the game, and you seized most of them, which was rare in previous games. Is this the coach's arrangement?" After the game, Gan Guoyang was selected as the best player in the game, and he also accepted an interview with reporters on the sidelines.

"Uh... the low post tactics in the inside have always been an important part of our team's tactics. We struggled a little on the outside tonight, so the inside has to take on more offensive responsibilities. My feel is quite good. I learned lessons from previous games, played more resolutely and decisively, and gave other players more help. I felt great." Gan Guoyang thought for a while and said.

"You used an amazing hook in the game, hitting 15 feet or even further away, and only Jabbar can do this in the entire league. Are you learning hooks with Jabbar?"

"Jabbar has undoubtedly given me great inspiration and help. I once trained with Jabbar in college. His every move is of great significance to me. I have also learned a lot in my two fights with him."

"Okay, thank you for being happy, and good luck."

"Thanks……"

...

The game finally ended with a pleasant result. The Trail Blazers avoided the misfortune of three consecutive losses, but the season continued. In front of Gan Guoyang and the Trail Blazers, there was a long and endless schedule.

"From the future, I will fly around like this every year, playing games from place to place, just like a circus tour. I can't imagine that such a life will last more than ten years." Gan Guoyang said while sitting on the plane flying back to Portland.

After the game, Gan Guoyang didn't even have time to go back to the Gan Family Restaurant in Chinatown to say goodbye to his father, so he followed the team to the airport to catch the last flight to Portland.

Gan Guoyang thought that such a hurry had just begun and it might have lasted for more than ten years, and instantly felt a huge sense of oppression coming from his heart.

"For more than ten years? Do you think you can stay in this league for more than ten years? If you can score 40 points and 20 rebounds in every game, then I think it's okay for you to stay for 30 years. Once you can't do it, then you'll say goodbye to this place and this kind of life." Kenny Carl, who was sitting behind, heard Gan Guoyang's words.

Only then did Gan Guoyang realize that in the NBA, any player who can play for more than ten years is very good at it.

If you can play for more than 15 years, you will either be a star or a top-notch player.

"I will play for 20 years and then put my hands on the ring!" Gan Guoyang turned around and said.

Hearing Gan Guoyang say this, the Trail Blazers players and staff in the cabin laughed, and even Ramsey, who was sitting in the front row, smiled.

"Hahaha, Gan, you must have been overwhelmed by this game. I once scored 51 points in a single game and won that game. At that time, I thought I was the king of the world! I would win the NBA championship, then return to West Germany with the championship ring, and be surrounded by a large group of fans for my signature... and then, I was sent to Portland for treatment." Van dervich joked when he heard what Gan Guoyang said.

After Van dervich said that, the players in the cabin laughed even more happily.

Gan Guoyang looked at his teammates who were happily sluggish, and his face was a little uneasy. He knew that he was bragging again by accident, but isn't it normal for an NBA player to win the championship?

And judging from the current momentum of the Trail Blazers, it is not a dream to win the championship, they are the number one in the West!

When Ramsey heard the team members laughing at Gan Guoyang, he seemed to be unable to bear it. He stood up from the front and said, "Okay, Gan's wish is good. If he can really wear rings with both hands, then I think we will wear one hand at least. And I want to say that the goal of the Trail Blazers is always the champion, and this has been the case since I entered the NBA."

Ramsey will never forget his 1977, the best season.

But perhaps such a beauty came too early, so that for Ramsey, as long as he did not win the championship in any subsequent season, he was struggling for a lifetime to recreate the glory of 1977.

It seems that success is not too early.

The Trail Blazers players seem to have been accustomed to Ramsey's style, and they all stopped talking.

Gan Guoyang looked at his teammates around him and suddenly realized that in this team that ranks first in the Western Conference, perhaps no one except Ramsey has the will to win the championship.

Gan Guoyang still remembers the saying "Never underestimate the heart of a champion", although this sentence was said ten years later.

If a team does not have the heart of a champion, no matter how good the regular season plays, I am afraid that it will not be able to win the final victory.

But now, Gan Guoyang can only keep these things silently in his heart. He doesn't feel that he roaring. The turtle's qi shot out of the air can instantly move his teammates, and then follow him to compete for the championship.

He can only achieve his goals step by step with his own performance.

After arriving in Portland, the Trail Blazers finally ended the away trip, with their next match against the Kansas Kings at home.

As the opponent of the Trail Blazers opening game this season, the Kansas Kings still impressed Gan Guoyang very deeply.

However, the King is really a weak team, not much better than the Golden State Warriors.

The Golden State Warriors are the last in the Pacific Division, while the Kansas Kings is the tail of the crane in another Western division in the West. It can be said that they are the two players at the end of the Western Conference.

In comparison, the King's situation is better than the Warriors and his record is better.

But the Kings' lineup structure is very similar to that of the Warriors. The core players are all small forwards, the Warriors are Shot, the Kings are Eddie Johnson; there are stable double-ath guards in the backcourt, the Warriors are Floyd and Connor, and the Kings are Woodson; and their insides are relatively weak and have certain offensive abilities, but they are not tall and lack thickness.

This naturally gave Gan Guoyang a chance to rage. He was ready to have another high score before the game.

However, Ramsey did not give Gan Guoyang too many opportunities in this game, because the condition of other Trail Blazers began to recover.

First of all, Jim Paxson. After returning to Portland, the team doctor gave some treatment for his foot injury, and Paxson also felt that his feet were healed.

In the game, Paxson scored 12 points in the first quarter, sweeping away the decline in the previous few games and finding his accuracy at the Portland Memorial Arena.

At the same time, Portland's bench also played a greater role. Ramsey, who had previously suffered from unavailable, decided to free Oti Norris on the bench and gave the 6-foot-9 center more playing time.

Norris did not waste this opportunity, with 20 points and 8 rebounds, which was the answer he handed over.

Therefore, Gan Guoyang no longer had the ability to fire without any scruples like in the last game. He only got 9 phone shots in the game, hit 6 goals, and scored 15 points efficiently.

The Trail Blazers also won this rare home game and continued to consolidate their position as No. 1 in the Western Conference.

After playing this game, the Trail Blazers are going to play away again.

"How the hell did this schedule? Why did you play away again?" Gan Guoyang returned to the locker room after the game. After seeing the schedule provided by the staff, he couldn't help but shout.

The Trail Blazers have played 27 games, including 16 away games, reaching 60%, including a long six-game and a four-game.

This time, there are only two away games, but it may be the most troublesome away trip in the NBA.

Because Portland is going to Texas, the southernmost part of the United States, to challenge the San Antonio Spurs and Houston Rockets on the Prairie of Texas.

Previously, the Trail Blazers faced the Spurs and Rockets continuously at home, winning and losing, one game easy and one game difficult.

Now they are going to their opponent's home court, and Gan Guoyang is able to imagine that he will receive a huge amount of booing and inverted lottery there.

Gan Guoyang and Texas have long had a grudge. Not counting the victory over Houston in the NCAA Finals, the ugly battle between them and Texas-El Paso has been engraved in NCAA history.

Therefore, when Gan Guoyang led a Washington State team to Texas again, it was inevitable that he would not be welcomed by local fans.

After arriving in San Antonio, the Trail Blazers players experienced the "enterprise" of local fans. When their bus asked for directions, they were pointed in the opposite direction, thus arriving at the hotel 2 hours late.

The subsequent match against the Spurs also gave the Trail Blazers a blow.

In the last game, the young and energetic Trail Blazers defeated the older Spurs, and the Spurs, who were waiting for their time at home, used their experienced experience and rich tactics to give the West the first to be the first to bet.

The Spurs' top scorer once again seized the loophole in the Trail Blazers' forward defense, scoring 31 points in the game with a high shooting percentage of 11 of 21 shots.

More importantly, the Spurs firmly controlled the rebounds throughout the game, and veteran Gilmore scored 15 rebounds, including 7 frontcourt rebounds.

Gan Guoyang, who had been counterattacked by veterans for two consecutive games, was once again educated by a superstar veteran.

Although Gilmore is no longer energetic, his judgment on the landing point of the rebound is still accurate, which makes Gan Guoyang's position often useless and loses N backcourt boards.

In the whole game, the Spurs caught a total of 60 rebounds, 19 more than the Trail Blazers, which put the Trail Blazers at a great disadvantage.

In the first quarter, the Spurs, who were well prepared, led the Trail Blazers by 15 points with 37:22. After that, they led all the way and did not give the Trail Blazers any chance.

Neither Mitchell Sampson scored 22 points or Gan Guoyang who sent 5 blocks, they were able to turn the tide alone. They were beaten to pieces in the half-ball arena.

On the way to Houston by car, the team fell into silence again.

Gan Guoyang was sitting in his seat and couldn't get out of fire. He really wanted to yell on the bus and scold his teammates for fighting like shit.

But he still held back. He didn't want the changes he had made before, because he was completely overturned by a failure.

But such ups and downs and being beaten up by his opponent really made Gan Guoyang very depressed, and he had no intention of joking with his teammates at all.

At this time, Gan Guoyang looked at Sampson, who was sitting in front of the bus and enjoyed a seat alone. As the boss of the team, he said nothing.

Gan Guoyang now has no idea of ​​seizing power, but this does not mean that Gan Guoyang recognizes Sampson's status as the boss.

If Sampson had the boss's style, he could consider supporting Sampson, but this often silent man was not like a leader.

Gan Guoyang is no longer a straight-minded boy. After Carl's guidance, he understood that perhaps he should do something to change the current power situation within the team.
Chapter completed!
