The Gan Guoyang team that got the ball quickly scored the first point of the game.
Chen Xing passed the ball to Gan Guoyang who reached the top of the arc. Gan Guoyang received the ball from about 20 feet away and hit a long jumper.
He shot quickly and without hesitation. He was obviously very confident in his shooting, but the distance of the shot was unexpected.
In the 1980s, the three-point line was still a new product, and the NBA had just tried the new rule for two seasons.
Last season, the league only made 943 three-pointers, an average of 1 per game, and its impact on the game was negligible.
In the eyes of old-school college coaches, the three-point shot is just a juggling trick to attract the audience. It is as close and far as a dunk. In addition to being good-looking and stimulating the fans' hormones, it is useless or even harmful to victory.
Therefore, long-range shooting is not part of the basic training subjects for players with a professional background. Inside scoring and mid-range are the serious scoring methods.
A 2-meter future insider like Gan Guoyang pulled out and made a long shot, which made Garp feel more and more special about this guy.
Karp suspected that this kid had not received formal training from the academy, and his shooting posture was also different. His arms were bent more than the average person. This was an adjustment made to fire the gun from a longer distance.
The Cancer team lost face after conceding a goal first and being blocked.
However, White and Steve LaVine did not lose their minds because of this, and they cooperated quite well in the subsequent offense.
Continuous pick-and-rolls and counter-runs, LaVine knows that Gan Guoyang is the core of defense, and only by fully mobilizing him can he obtain good enough offensive opportunities.
White turned and cut to the basket, received LaVine's lob, dribbled past Gan Guoyang, and succeeded in a reverse layup from the other side of the basket.
"Damn, you almost covered me."
After scoring the goal, White "praised" Gan Guoyang. He was still upset about the head-on collision with the first goal just now.
Gan Guoyang ignored White with an expressionless face. Then during the attack, he reached the top of the key for the second time, caught the ball, and took another long-distance shot.
Hit again!
Gan Guoyang's team took the lead.
Later, Gan Guoyang interfered with Pittman's layup in defense and got the rebound.
Chen Xing quickly launched an attack and broke into the basket while Cancer was not on a firm footing, but he knew he could not break through White's defense.
So he threw the ball on the backboard. Gan Guoyang followed up, jumped high, made an alley-oop, and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand!
Beautiful and difficult one-handed alley-oop.
Gan Guoyang's feet landed on the blue hard ground of Rochambeau Stadium, and the steel basket trembled slightly.
This is a tactic that Chen Xing and Gan Guoyang have practiced many times, and they can often wreak havoc on their opponents when they are not prepared.
After the cooperation was successful, Gan Guoyang and Chen Xing high-fived, and Gan Guoyang waved to Gan Guohui, asking him to come over and high-five too. Gan Guohui also contributed a lot to "attracting" the defensive attention.
Although the level of the three people is uneven, with Gan Guoyang here, they are a powerful group. Gan Guohui, who had never had confidence in himself before, gradually became more confident.
The fox pretends to be the tiger's power.
This goal caused the audience to burst into jubilation, and several black boys could not help but dance.
A black uncle on the sidelines yelled, "Man, what's your name!"
Gan Guoyang replied, "Gump. Sunny Gump!"
"Come on!"
“More Taft’s, Gan!”
"Gan, beat him hard!"
"Well done Gan!"
The audience's emotions were ignited, and in the end, what matters on the street is strength, not skin color.
The Cancer team has always been invincible at the Stade Rochambeau, and fans on the street want to see the drama of the Warriors fighting the dragon.
Gan Guoyang's opening shot, two accurate shots, and the grace with which he dunked quickly attracted a group of casual fans.
Eric White was quite unhappy. He played at Stade Rochambeau for a year or two and didn't receive as much cheer as this guy did today.
There is no way, fans are all visual animals. Although Eric White is very strong, he has a solid and simple style of play and does not attract attention on the street.
Steve LaVine came over to comfort White, "Relax Eric, we haven't used our full strength yet, right? They will feel pain later."
Steve LaVine clearly had confidence in their trio, and White calmed down and went into the offense.
LaVine lobbed the ball to White in the low post, and White pushed in with his back - the low post technique is a must-have offensive technique for everyone from guards to centers in this era.
Except for a few adult players, White's body has always been invincible at the Rochambeau Stadium. With a height of 6 feet 6 and a weight of 190 pounds, it is difficult for his peers to compete with him.
Today he finally met his opponent. When he got stuck, he felt that Gan Guoyang was nailed to the ground like a nail. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake him even half an inch.
After catching the ball, he dribbled the ball and pushed it in, as if he was pushing it on a concrete pier.
"Waterfak, is this guy a telephone pole buried in the soil?"
White had some doubts about life when he failed to hit the ball hard. He gave up the idea of hitting the ball hard and passed back to Steve LaVine.
"This kid is so tough on defense, but Eric can't do anything to him?"
Steve LaVine was quite surprised. After receiving the return call, he immediately changed his strategy.
He broke through from the left with the ball, and then passed the ball to Pittman who came out of the circle.
Pittman caught the ball and hit a pull-up jump shot.
Cancer is in hot pursuit, and Gan Guohui's defense has a big loophole after all.
He couldn't keep up with Pittman's deft movement, and after just a few possessions, he was already short of breath.
And this is why Cancer is called Cancer - whether they are offensive or defensive, they are good at wearing down their opponents.
Endless running, super fast pace, and a tireless strong press on the defensive end.
As long as the team is slightly weaker and the overall ability is not strong, it is easy to be forced to collapse by them.
After the tentative offense and defense of the first few goals, Cancer's defensive intensity has gone up to more than one level.
White began to stick to the defense, making small movements with his hands, and tried his best to cut off the passing line between Chen Xing and Gan Guoyang.
Chen Xing, however, could not get rid of LaVine's defense alone and made two consecutive mistakes, giving up the right to attack.
Pittman hit another jump shot, followed LaVine to break through and get rid of the defense and rushed to the basket. At the moment when Gan Guoyang was assisting in defense, he hit the ground and passed the ball to White.
White finally came up with a hearty two-handed dunk, sweeping away the depression and gloom.
On the contrary, Gan Guoyang fell into trouble in front of this kind of pressing defense trained by professional school teams.
Chen Xing was unable to pass the ball smoothly to the inside hands, so Gan Guoyang tried to catch the ball from the outside.
But his dribbling was not enough, and was intercepted by Steve LaVine, who was double-teamed.
LaVine looked back at the moon and passed a through ball to the inside. White caught the ball and made an easy layup.
Unable to break through by dribbling, Gan Guoyang tried to get the ball in the low post.
But White's defense was no better than anyone else's. He used three-quarters of the way around to pin the powerful Gan Guoyang behind him.
Although Gan Guoyang is extremely powerful, in this situation he has no skills and just squeezes hard, which results in a foul.
It was impossible for Chen Xing to break through the ball with a lob - he was disturbed by Steve LaVine's candy-like defense, and it was difficult to hit the ball.
Gan Guohui stepped forward to receive the ball at the top of the arc, caught the ball and threw it inside, praying that Gan Guoyang would jump up and grab the ball.
But White predicted where the ball would land, intercepted it successfully, and controlled the ball.
The audience who originally cheered for Gan Guoyang fell silent.
The black uncle shook his head and muttered: "You can't stand the test, boy."
Cap LaVine confirmed his guess. This kid is very talented, but he lacks basic skills.
It's a pity that at the age of 16, there is no future development for this basic skill.
