The Houston Rockets scored two points with Olajuwon's sneak attack at the basket, and after the official timeout, they overtook one point.

Gan Guoyang missed a big gap because he was thinking about the profound problems about "destiny" in his mind and was scolded by Ramsey.

"Concentrate, don't think about something messy, the game is still long." At this time, Mitchell Sampson reminded Gan Guoyang.

This is also the first time Sampson, as a senior, raised a note on the court. Gan Guoyang nodded vigorously after hearing this.

Since high school, Gan Guoyang occasionally has the odor of being distracted on the court. This may be the sequelae of time travel. He always thinks about some mysterious and mysterious problems, and sometimes he feels confused about dreaming.

It's okay during the regular time of the game, but if you make this mistake at a critical moment, it will be fatal to the team.

Gan Guoyang was stolen by Olajuwon, so he naturally wanted to give one back. Until now, he has not played one-on-one with Olajuwon.

When he came to the offense, Gan Guoyang began to ask for the ball at the low post, but his position was quite shallow and he did not struggle to go deeper into Rika.

After getting the ball 15 feet away from the basket, Gan Guoyang did not play singles, but held the ball in one hand and looked at his teammates around him.

Olajuwon was not distracted. He devoted himself to the defense of Gan Guoyang. He knew that 15 feet was already the range of Gan Guoyang's hook-up. The last game of the ultra-long-distance hook in Gan Guoyang in Portland made Olajuwon suffer.

So Olajuwon will naturally not relax. Olajuwon's defense is different from some candy-style blue-collar insiders. He just stands behind you like this, but the players in front don't dare to play singles easily.

Because everyone knows that Olajuwon's big slap is not a vegetarian, and Olajuwon's defensive position is very good. He seems to be standing casually, but in fact he is leaving the side and keeps his body slightly turning inward.

If Gan Guoyang wants to go from the middle, it is basically unlikely. If he wants to go from the bottom line, then there will be a higher Ralph Sampson waiting for him in the inside.

Gan Guoyang made a brief observation. Now he has a better understanding of the Trail Blazers' running tactics. He pays special attention to the two positions of the bottom corner and the arc top. The Trail Blazers' outside line is very good at shooting from the mid-cut and 0-degree angles of the bottom corner.

However, the Rockets stared at people and it was not that easy to run out of the open space.

At this time, Gan Guoyang suddenly dribbled the ball horizontally and walked towards the middle. Olajuwang was prepared for it and moved one step horizontally and stuck Gan Guoyang's way. He knew that Gan Guoyang's move horizontally to the front of the basket was very fatal, so he must not rush to that position.

As soon as Gan Guoyang's movement route was blocked, he immediately turned around to Olajuwon.

If Gan Guoyang's turn speed was fast enough, he could pass Olajuwon in one step and directly enter the inside line, but Gan Guoyang did not have this ability at this time, not to mention that Olajuwon was not slow either.

So when Gan Guoyang turned around, Olajuwon immediately moved to the right and continued to stick to Gan Guoyang. Gan Guoyang was stuck and could not move. He had to hold the ball in his hands to protect the basketball, and he could no longer continue to attack.

Gan Guoyang was completely deterred by Olajuwon for this ball, and the attack time on the clock was only 6 seconds left. Gan Guoyang could only pass the ball back to Van dervich who came to pick up the ball.

The Trail Blazers' tactics are no longer possible, and Van dervich can only do it by himself under McGrey's defense.

He drove twice outside the three-point line and directly pulled out the shot.

Although there was a three-point line in the 1980s, there were very few players who shot three-pointers. Everyone grew up playing basketball without a three-point line since childhood. They were instilled with the idea that "the closer to the basket, the easier it is to score", and there are naturally very few people who practice three-pointers.

Van dervich's shot in one step within the three-point line was extremely accurate, but he exceeded his range by one step. He averaged no more than half of his three-point shots per game per season. These shots were basically no time to take action.

Like this goal, when the time comes, you can just pull out the ball and shoot it. Such a blind shot is lucky to make it, and it is normal not to make it.

"Bang!" The ball hit the front of the basket heavily and hit a lot.

For example, three-point rebounds are the most difficult to grab. The collapse is far and difficult to predict. Grabbing such rebounds basically depends on who has the best position.

After passing the ball, Gan Guoyang, who saw Van dervich taking action, was about to run back to defense. Anyway, he would not grab the frontcourt rebounds if he did not enter.

As a result, the Rockets players, including Olajuwon, squeezed into the inside to protect the backcourt rebound, but the ball suddenly collapsed outside the three-second zone, and fell to Gan Guoyang in a desperate situation.

Regarding such an unexpected surprise, Gan Guoyang took 0.1 second to react and then took 0.1 second to make a choice.

Generally speaking, in such a big fortune, experienced players will definitely stop and pass the ball back to the point guard to reorganize a 24-second attack.

In fact, there is no need for experienced players. As long as your brain is not thrust, most players will do this unless they are confident in their shots. They can make sure to shoot the ball in a step within the three-point line, such as Van der Vic.

But in addition to being a good mid-range shot during training, Gan Guoyang is completely useless in the game. Since the beginning of the season, he has made a total of three mid-range shots.

But Gan Guoyang, who had just been blocked from the attack, was unwilling to pass the ball like this. He watched Olajuwon pounce on the ball from the inside, ignored Valentine beside him and directly opened his hand to a 20-foot jump shot.

If it were another center, he would throw the ball. If it was thrown into the ancestral grave, it would be smoked. If it could not be thrown into Gan Guoyang, it would be waiting to be scolded by the head coach.

However, Olajuwon has a psychological shadow. In the NCAA finals, the University of Houston was defeated by Gan Guoyang in the mid-range shot, so Olajuwon had to rush up to interfere with the shot no matter what.

"Pass! Pass... Why not pass..." Ramsey saw Gan Guoyang's brain was dizzy again and chose to shoot in the middle, and shouted anxiously. Gan Guoyang's intermittent trauma made Ramsey now have the problem of intermittent mania.

"Bang..." Ramsey roared halfway, but the ball that Gan Guoyang shot out drew a tricky arc, hit the rebound, hit the board and entered the basket...

Ramsey had no choice but to shoot, and he naturally had nothing to say. Although this ball was obviously a lucky balloon, luck on the basketball court is also part of his strength.

After the ball entered, Gan Guoyang stared at his hand with an incredible expression for a long time. While returning to defense, he smiled at Ramsey on the sidelines. Ramsey could only scratch his head helplessly, turn around and sit back on the bench and don’t want to see this person again.

Relying on this lucky balloon, the Trail Blazers once again surpassed one point with 17:16, and Gan Guoyang also got the first point after the opening.

However, Gan Guoyang also knew that one of these balls could burn high incense in a game, and now the mid-range shot is not his scoring method.

The defeat in the singles just now also made Gan Guoyang feel the pressure from Olajuwon. This guy is indeed one step further than when he was in college.

In the university arena, Gan Guoyang swept everything at that time, and Ewing, Olajuwon and Gan Guoyang had a level gap.

Gan Guoyang mainly has the advantage of "talent value", surpassing the times in some aspects, and has significant practice effects and rapid technological progress.

However, his traits are considered "premature" by scouts, which is the so-called technical stereotype and average development potential. In addition, his Chinese identity was selected by Portland in the second place, which was already an upset.

Olajuwon was able to become the No. 1 pick because he showed extremely huge potential. The talent of this Nigerian center who only came into contact with basketball since junior high school and only started to receive regular basketball training in college is historically rated.

His innate talent is no less than the "talent value" of Gan Guoyang's bug, which makes Gan Guoyang sigh that some people are really God's favorites.

Just over ten seconds after Gan Guoyang's lucky ball passed, Olajuwon used a backward jump shot to give Gan Guoyang a quick and neat response.

Compared with college, Olajuwon's jump shot was smoother. His previous shooting posture was a bit strange because his body and hands were out of touch when shooting. Drexler also had this problem in this regard.

These two guys often rely on the physical qualities of animals to throw themselves into the air and pause. When the defender falls, he will take action.

Drexler has not been able to solve this bad habit yet, and Olajuwon is gradually changing this bad habit, and his shooting feeling is obviously better.

"This is the shooting. Do you think you can shoot like me?" Olajuwang said to Gan Guoyang after the ball entered.

In the past, Olajuwon was criticized by Gan Guoyang a lot in the game, but now he has also begun to fight back against Gan Guoyang; and Gan Guoyang no longer regards various NBA stars as idols. In his eyes, Olajuwon is just his great opponent on the court, not his favorite center forward in later generations.

"Can I make such a shot in the last second, can you defend my shot?" Gan Guoyang was said to his weakness and began to turn over old accounts to stimulate Olajuwon.

The two of them competed on the court, from mouth to hands to feet, both of them had to compete, and both teams also fought against each other for 4 minutes, and the scores of both sides were still intertwined.

When Valentine poked Lucas's ball out of bounds while defending, Ramsey called a timeout. At this time, the Trail Blazers were still one point behind the Rockets at 24:25, less than three minutes before the end of the first quarter.

According to the Trail Blazers' regular rotation rhythm, Gan Guoyang should rest at this time, and Kenny Carl will play, while Drexler and Colt will be replaced by Paxson and Valentine.

But this time, Ramsey changed his regular rotation and left Gan Guoyang on the court. Kenny Carl replaced Mitchell Sampson, and Drexler and Colt from the outside were matched with the outside.

"Start the offense, don't stop, defend the inside, put the opponent's shot, and after grabbing the rebound, be sure to look for Drexler and launch a fast attack; I don't go on the wing attack route, walk from the middle, Gan and Carl pay attention to keeping up, KiKi and Colt respond at 45 degrees."

This is different from the fast attack strategy that the Trail Blazers have always used. The Trail Blazers used the "Dapeng spreads its wings" style to pull the fast attack across the line, pulling the space very wide, and then looking for offensive opportunities from the wings.

But the Rockets' wing defense is too powerful, and their outside pressure is too strong. If you want to use wing projection to pull out the Rockets' defense, it is basically a dream.

Since that's the case, Ramsey decided not to talk to you anymore and just stab the other person with a sharp knife.

However, the Trail Blazers' offensive starter is purely weak in athleticism compared to the Rockets' offensive. It is not reliable to rely on Paxson and Van derwich to make sharp swords, so it is not reliable to let them grab rebounds.

The first ball in the game, Paxson missed a layup under the interference of the Rockets players. This kind of ball can only be entered if it was replaced by Drexler, because he will not make a layup, but will dunk in.

"Breaking into their baskets, everyone is putting their backs in the rebounds, we need to make some changes to let them taste the bayonets." Ramsey said, putting up the tactical board.

This new strategy was the result of Ramsey and the coaching staff repeatedly discussing and watching the video after losing to the Rockets. Ramsey also decided to slowly turn it into the main style of the second team to enhance their impact.

Although the first team is very stable, they are not motivated enough. This is why when they fall behind in the first half, they are prone to lose in the second half. They often fail to rush up and die of suffocation.

"Clyde, I hope you can prove to them in Houston how huge it is for them to not choose you." Ramsey said to Drexler again.

Although it was the second year since entering the NBA, Drexler was still worried about Houston's choice of McGrey that year.

Every time he comes to Houston, his mood is particularly complicated, so he goes all out every time he plays against the Rockets, and this time is of course no exception.

After the suspension, Drexler took off his coat and stepped onto the court with his teammates. Many viewers at the scene gave Drexler applause.

Because many fans have watched Drexler play since high school, watch him dominate the Houston area high school league, watch him enter the University of Houston and reach the finals.

And now, he has become a member of the opponent's team, but this does not prevent their love for Drexler.

Drexler stood on the court with a stern face, showing a hint of pleasure, and he didn't want to affect his determination to fight.

At this time, the Rockets made an out-of-bounds ball, and they agreed to make personnel adjustments. Ralph Sampson came off the court and replaced Larry Micos. At the same time, Roed was replaced by Wiggins in the backcourt.

Maybe because he just came on the court, Micos, who served on the sideline, was not very focused and served too casually. He threw a high throw towards Lucas. The ball was high and slow.

At this time, Drexler rushed out like a black panther and reached out to break the ball before Lucas!

He is really too fast!

It was almost time for other Rockets players to see him intercept the ball and rushed to the basket, and they didn't even have the idea of ​​chasing.

A stunning ride.
