"Shrink the defense, don't give Irving a chance, let them vote!"

Ramsey shouted concisely during the timeout that the best way to deal with Irving is not to double-team, not close-fitting, not pressing, but to shrink the defense of the whole team.

For Dr. J, shooting is his biggest weakness. At a distance of about 15 feet, Dr. J's shooting belongs to the Six-Meridian Divine Sword. It is sometimes effective and sometimes not effective. It is a certain threat to be accurate. Before he can make a move, both sides began to prepare to grab rebounds.

In comparison, once Dr. J is allowed to reach within 15 feet, especially in the three-second zone, his threat to the basket will increase dramatically. No matter how you defend, Irving always has a way to get the ball in.

Moreover, Ramsey also hopes that the team can better protect the backcourt rebounds. He knows that Moses Malone will re-play after this timeout. Once this monster doesn't seize the opportunity, he will continue to use the frontcourt rebounds to destroy the opponent's defensive confidence.

"The game between the two sides continued, and the 76ers' offense began to recover with Dr. J's consecutive goals. Of course, the more important thing is that their defensive intensity began to increase, which made the Trail Blazers unable to attack efficiently and easily like the first quarter, and also gave the 76ers more opportunities to counterattack."

"That's right, although the 76ers are no longer able to maintain the high-intensity defense in the whole game like in 1983, in a short period of time, they can still use such high-intensity confrontation to disrupt the opponent's rhythm. Obviously, the Trail Blazers need to make some adjustments."

Ramsey did make adjustments, replacing Gan Guoyang and Van dervic, replacing Mitchell Sampson and Jerome Cauchy, hoping to enhance the offensive and defensive strength on the court.

The 76ers also replaced Moses Malone and Morris Chicks, hoping to further enhance their counterattack momentum.

But after the timeout, the Trail Blazers made a mistake in the first attack. Colt dribbled on the right sideline and then passed the ball to Jerome Cauchy who was coming forward to make a transition. As a result, Cauchy slipped under his feet. As soon as his hand touched the ball, he knelt on the ground.

"The Trail Blazers' mistake, Chicks got the ball, and the 76ers launched a counterattack again! Dr. J took the ball, rushed forward with the ball... The ball fell... There was chaos under the basket, and the ball Barkley got, shot, and hit the board into the basket!"

The 76ers' counterattack was in chaos. Originally, after Irving got the ball, he should have rushed straight to the basket in one dragon, and then gave the Trail Blazers a slam dunk.

But Gan Guoyang followed Irving all the way, and quickly took a shot when Irving was ready, hit the ball with his hand.

Under the influence of the power of Irving and Gan Guoyang, the basketball flew directly to the high ground and hit the rebound in an instant.

The basketball that rebounded just fell into Barkley's hands. After a melee on the ground, Barkley clamped the basketball firmly with both hands again, then stuck out his butt, pulled it up and shot it directly, and the ball entered.

"Fatty guy, it's really amazing to grab the ball on the floor." Gan Guoyang took the ball back to the bottom line and prepared to serve, while cursing in his heart.

Barkley is not tall and easily suffers in the inside, but once he grabs the floor ball, his defender-like height will play a role. Before the other insiders are bent down, this guy is already facing the ground.

In addition, this guy's butt is really big. When he bent down, he basically can't stand 120 degrees behind him. Anyone who wants to take his ball from behind is not necessarily enough.

With the goal scored, the 76ers narrowed the gap between the two sides to 4 points. After the start of the second quarter, the Trail Blazers only relied on a dunk from Drexler at the basket to score two points.

"The 76ers scored an 8-2 climax, which is a huge pressure for the Trail Blazers, because the 76ers have very strong counterattack ability. If they can't score, then the 76ers will rely on counterattack to tie the score."

"Yes, the 76ers' quick counterattack ability once made it hard for the Lakers and the Celtics to bear. Although the Trail Blazers' retreat speed is very fast, it is still very difficult to stop Irving's fast attack."

"Let's take a look at the response of the Trail Blazers. Drexler held the ball outside the three-point line on the left. He passed the ball to Cort and cut inward... Van dervich held the ball and stuffed it to Gan in the inside! Gan shook it for a moment, made a layup! The ball went in! Foul, and there was another extra free throw!"

"Yes!" Gan Guoyang yelled with his fist after the ball entered!

This is a tactical run that is different from the first quarter. The Gan Guoyang people have been staying on the weak side, that is, the right bottom line, and it is not his attack area.

After passing the ball to Cort, Drexler immediately cut inward and feinted the defense. Cort transferred the ball to Van dervich, who added Drexler's position.

At this time, Gan Guoyang immediately slipped into the baseline and then relied on the cover provided by Drexler in the low post to get rid of Moses Malone's defense and got the ball in a very good position.

After getting the ball, Gan Guoyang did not turn his back and layup directly, but made a feint. Then, when Barkley was still in the air, he forced a layup against Barkley, not only hit the ball, but also caused Barkley to foul.

"Gan's free throw... The ball didn't make the ball, the 76ers got the rebound, and the difference between the two sides reached 6 points." Gan Guoyang made two fouls today, and was smashed by the fat man Barkley, which undoubtedly affected his free throw feel.

The Trail Blazers continued to perform the full-game defense, and they sent Corte and Drexler to press Cheeks in the frontcourt.

But Chicks was experienced and was not affected by the sudden tight defense. He calmly passed the ball to Irving who came to meet him. Irving quickly advanced through the half and passed the ball to Barkley at the top of the arc.

The Trail Blazers obviously made a big mistake. They should not give up their defense against the top of the arc in order to press the whole game. Barkley's position has reached the free throw line.

This position can be said to be the most difficult position to defend at halftime. It is located in the center of the halftime and is very close to the basket. Most players shoot very accurately at this position.

At the same time, this is the best position for passing the ball, and it can pass both front, back, left and right. Putting a player in this position is obviously a defensive mistake.

Sure enough, it was too late for Kenny Carl to go up and make up for defense. Barkley made a pass directly to the inside, Moses Malone broke through Gan Guoyang, and after receiving the ball, he fucked the basket with both hands and scored two points.

Gan Guoyang has no choice but to block the route under the basket. If he chooses to mark Malone, then Barkley can pass Kenny Carl in one step and then rush in and dunk directly.

"Formation, we need to protect the formation! And our free throw line, how can we let that fat man come in?" Gan Guoyang shouted loudly.

On the team's defensive end, Ramsey has always valued Gan Guoyang, and also gave him the right to direct the team's defense.

"The 76ers pulled their formation very wide, which made the Trail Blazers a little uncomfortable because they wanted to shrink their defense." Commentary guest Crouch said after watching this offense and defense.

Indeed, 76ers head coach Cningham also expected that the Trail Blazers would likely shrink their defense line, so he asked the players to try to speed up during the timeout and attack before the opponent's defensive formation came out, and at the same time opened the formation so that the Trail Blazers players would not dare to shrink too presumptuously.

"Yes, but we also need to look at the Trail Blazers' offense and see if they can maintain their advantage in positional offense. Such continuous quick counterattacks will obviously make the Trail Blazers very uncomfortable."

The Trail Blazers continued to implement their tactical routines. This time, Gan Guoyang mentioned the top of the arc to support the ball. Cort was around Gan Guoyang, trying to get rid of Chicks' entanglement.

On the other hand, Van dervich had already made a beautiful back-run from the inside out and ran directly to the left horn position.

Gan Guoyang immediately passed the ball to Van derwich, and Van derwich opened his hand and shot after receiving the ball!

"Van dervich's shot hit the front of the basket and didn't make it...a group of people...oh! Gentle's dunk! Where did he come out?"

The fans at the scene were probably as surprised as the commentator. Where did Gan Guoyang appear?

Van dervich's ball hit the front of the basket. The ball did not bounce very wide, but fell directly after hitting the basket.

The other Trail Blazers players are ready to retreat. They have never grabbed the frontcourt rebounds. There are three 76ers wearing red jerseys standing under the basket. It is obvious that this rebound is their possession.

But Gan Guoyang was like a spirit cat, suddenly came in from the gap on the right, then jumped from a group of 76ers, gently dunked the ball into the basket in the air, and after landing, he quickly threw it into the defense without any expression.

"Beautiful rebound! Do a good job of defense and do a good job of defense!" Ramsey on the sidelines clapped and shouted when he saw Gan Guoyang's performance.

At the current position of this game, Gan Guoyang's performance is perfect in Ramsey's eyes. He has good support and defends well. He scored all the goals he should score. He also scored unexpected goals. At the same time, he did not forget to retreat quickly after scoring the goal, instead of being immersed in the joy of scoring like some rookies, and then turned around and was immediately beaten by his opponent.

The gap between the two sides reached 6 points again. The Trail Blazers relied on Gan Guoyang's performance to stabilize the situation on the field, but the 76ers' counterattack momentum did not end.

After dribbling through half the game, Chicks handed the ball directly to Irving on the right and then ran in. Irving's only threat outside the three-point line was his pass.

Chicks suddenly cut to the left bottom line near the three-second zone with the help of Barkley's cover, which was empty and there was no player from the Trail Blazers.

Irving had already observed Chicks' cut on the right, and immediately a pass across the half passed to Chicks.

But Cort did not completely lose his defense. He squeezed past Barkley and touched the ball the moment Chicks received the ball. Although Chicks got the ball, the rhythm of the offense had been interrupted. He could have taken the ball and shot directly after receiving it.

If the tactics are destroyed, then it will be hard.

Moses Malone walked around from the right and directly resisted Gan Guoyang's position at the basket.

This game may be the most difficult game for Gan Guoyang. Every time Moses Malone is at a very deep position in the edge of the three-second zone. In other games, it is impossible for the center to get the ball at this position because it cannot withstand Gan Guoyang.

But Moses Malone can resist any center in the league, including Gan Guoyang. He asked for the ball at the left bottom line 5 feet away from the basket, and Chicks immediately handed the ball to him.

However, this game may also be the most difficult game for Moses Malone. He did not expect that Gan Guoyang, a yellow-sex center who looked thinner than when he was in his twenties, would be so strong.

For the average center, Moses Malone spread his legs, sticks his butt and then lie back. The other party can't perform any other functions except for being his backrest chair.

But Gan Guoyang made him very troubled, so when he got the ball and was about to make further moves, he found that he could not make any effort because Gan Guoyang had already blocked the space for Moses Malone to make moves.

But Moses Malone is a king-level insider who has been in the basketball world for more than ten years. With rich experience, he knows how to deal with Gan Guoyang at this time.

Because Gan Guoyang was too focused, he made a common mistake that young players made, which was that they were easy to eat.

Moses Malone raised his hand realistically, causing Gan Guoyang to fly up all of a sudden.

Gan Guoyang knew something was wrong when he jumped, but it was too late. Moses Malone rubbed directly on him, and the referee's whistle immediately rang out.

"Defensive fouls, from the first minute of the first quarter to now, this is Gan's second personal foul. It seems that he has controlled well, but he still lacks some experience."

"Yes, as long as he can't get stuck in this situation, Moses won't have much chance."

The experience of young players is accumulated through this experience of being played by old players. Then one day they become old players, and they can use these experiences to play with the new generation. This is a kind of inheritance of the NBA.

However, at this time, Gan Guoyang would no longer think about inheritance or not. He was thinking about teaching Ma Long a lesson in the inside competition.

"Ma Long made two free throws, and the 76ers narrowed the gap to 4 points, and the two sides began to enter a tug-of-war in the second quarter."

"This is a test for the Trail Blazers. If they fall behind at this time, not only will the score be turned over, but more importantly, the momentum they accumulate in the first quarter will be worn out."

"Let's see if Gan will give any response... Gan continues to support him at a high position... Gan suddenly broke through with the ball! Dunk!"

"Bang!"

"Yeah!~~~"
