The game was suspended for 15 minutes due to the conflict, but this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the fans at the scene.
On the contrary, in the heat of summer, the fierce finals conflict made the Memorial Coliseum's blood boil, and the entire crowd began chanting "MVP," cheering for Gan Guoyang.
Gan Guoyang gave Chuck Daly a lesson, letting him know "those who live by the sword shall die by the sword." No matter how Daly packaged himself, the barbaric playing style of the Pistons was his own creation.
He portrayed himself as a gentleman coach, with immaculate behavior both on and off the court, then plotted with underhanded tactics to attack the opponent's key players in places where cameras couldn't see, like locker rooms and training grounds.
Fans might not mind, most people watch the game just for enjoyment.
For players, though, every game against the Pistons brings a lot of pressure.
