Chapter 25 The Number One Fan

Phil Jackson's judgment was correct.

Jordan, in the latter part of the second quarter and the second half, initiated a counterattack against the Trail Blazers using his superb individual offense.

He at one point helped his team narrow the gap to 8 points.

But games often advance with ups and downs like waves.

The crest of a wave is not sustainable, and the opponent will not always be at a trough.

The situation is always intertwined, coming in alternation.

After withstanding the Bulls' fiercest counterattack, Gan Guoyang used clever low-post scoring and increasingly fluent ball distribution to suppress the Bulls' comeback.

Especially the three-point shots of Hornacek, Porter, and Dale Curry.

The increased three-point shooting in Jack Ramsey's "two reductions and one increase" strategy was being executed better and better.

Three-point shooting had become a mandatory part of the Trail Blazers' daily training.
