Rambis was right, he truly wasn't afraid of Ah Gan anymore.
After coming to terms with Gan Guoyang's "maliciousness", he understood it was a survival of the fittest game.
Rather than being entangled and struggling, it was better to enjoy it, just as Ah Gan said, "Losing the game won't kill you anyway."
So, Rambis being unable to guard Ah Gan was purely due to lack of ability, as well as Gan Guoyang having an explosively good touch tonight.
Fitzsimmons saw Rambis getting blown out by Ah Gan but had no better strategies to use since there really wasn't anyone else.
Moreover, he couldn't afford to abandon Rambis, as Rambis was still useful on defense, and his backcourt rebounding was the best the Suns had.
In some rounds, he did cause Ah Gan "a bit" of trouble, such as drawing fouls while rebounding, and grabbing 7 defensive rebounds in the first half.
Unfortunately, most of these defensive rebounds by Rambis didn't turn into counterattack ammunition for the Suns.
