Sabonis always had three-point shooting ability, but last season his three-pointers were just casual attempts, forced when time was running out, with no special tactics designed for him by the Trail Blazers.
This time, Beelman thought it necessary to develop Sabonis's three-point shooting to further stretch the floor and create a high-low game with Ah Gan.
In terms of rotation, Gan Guoyang adjusted his previous second quarter 6-minute rest to an average of about 3 minutes rest per quarter, distributing the rest time so that Ah Gan could maintain his hot shooting streak.
By the second quarter, Gan Guoyang began to increase his passing, creating more opportunities for his teammates, and allowing players like Petrović and Reggie Lewis, guards with strong perimeter skills, to handle the ball and launch attacks, thus maintaining offensive diversity.
