After the end of the Cold War, a major shift occurred in the international landscape. America, which had been searching for a new Cold War opponent, now had a new target and opponent: terrorism. This provided the other side of the Pacific Ocean with a precious respite.
Similarly, the new team that Gan Guoyang founded was racing against time, striving to ensure that everything was ready before the regular season began in November.
This was nothing short of an impossible mission.
Even though Gan Guoyang had been laying the groundwork and preparing for a year, starting an NBA team in just over a month seemed incredible.
