Chapter 103: You'd Better Shoot a Three-Pointer

The third quarter ended, and the Trail Blazers were still leading the Celtics by three points, 89:86.

After the initial fluctuation at the start of the quarter brought on a tie, Ramsay decisively had Gan Guoyang mark Larry Bird, which turned the tide on the court.

Gan Guoyang was right; indeed, no one understood how to defend a small forward better than him.

However, the cost was that Gan Guoyang incurred two fouls and his own offensive and defensive rhythm was completely disrupted.
