The Trail Blazers spent the quietest two nights since arriving in Detroit.
But sleep was still not an easy matter for the players, it wasn't the noise outside that affected them, but the anxiety within.
Leading 2-0, only to be tied 2-2, the fifth game was still in Detroit, and many people suffered from insomnia.
Bobby Berman scheduled only simple shooting practice on rest days, while the rest of the time everyone stayed in the hotel to recuperate, but Gan Guoyang spent an afternoon on the treadmill, pushing his body to the limit with a marathon-length run.
Adelman didn't understand, Bobby Berman told him, "Ah Gan is forcing himself to the limit; his energy is too abundant. He's rested for two games without playing, he needs that feeling of being close to exhaustion to erupt with the greatest strength and enter his best state."
Berman knew Gan Guoyang well, who was running faster and more focused on the treadmill.
