As soon as the first quarter of the game between the Lakers and the SuperSonics ended, there were already reporters ready to write a script, because the Lakers scored 37 points in the first quarter, but the SuperSonics only scored 14 points, a quarter of time, a 23-point gap, and there was no suspense for the Lakers to win.

At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, Liu Han and O'Neal came out of the rest, and the lineup on the court completely became a small lineup.

On the supersonic side, head coach George Karl did not reprimand the players too harshly during the first quarter break, but kept explaining to the players how to play the next game in a limited time. George Carr hopes that Gary Payton can play more in this game, and he believes that the key to limiting the Lakers is to limit the play of the point guard, and Liu Han must rest in the second quarter, which is a good opportunity for the supersonic to chase points.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Gary Payton entangled Nash, who was no match for Payton in terms of physical fitness or experience, and he was completely restrained by Payton. The SuperSonics took the opportunity to play an efficient offense, and Wenbeck and Schramf kept attacking the Lakers' height defective interior, and for a while, the Lakers team composed of Robert Horry and Michael Finley was in the limelight.

The SuperSonics attacked, Payton dribbled, and the other players all pulled away, Payton turned his back directly to Nash, and then sat in step by step like a center to play, Nash was hit by Payton's chest and hurt, but there was no way to stop Payton's impact.

Kittels saw that Payton was close to the three-second zone, so he stepped forward to strike, Payton took the opportunity to make a ground-hitting pass, handed the ball to the empty Jose Hawkins, Hawkins was about to throw, and Finley was introduced to fill the block, but Hawkins was experienced, and gave the ball to Wenbeck with a hand-to-hand pass, who received the ball and jumped and dunked directly. The Lakers' defense was completely torn apart by the SuperSonics.

With less than six minutes into the second quarter, the SuperSonics closed the deficit to 15 points, and the Lakers' strivial offense descended into chaos after Nash was completely restrained by Payton.

George Krent called a timeout, but he didn't replace Nash at the timeout, and he didn't plan to replace Liu Han. George felt that this was a good opportunity to make a deeper reform of the team, and now that Nash was completely locked up, the Lakers' offensive routine came to a standstill, but George hoped that the rest of the Lakers' players could organize the offense on the court, and each player could become the initiation or end point of the offense, which is what George wants to see the Lakers.

"Boys, do you think you don't know how to play now when you get the ball? Remember how we trained before the start of the season? Every one of you is a point guard, I think so, and I want each of you to be able to think like a point guard when you get the ball. As for how to do it, you need to make your own decisions after you play, and I'm sure you'll give me a satisfactory answer. "George is a psychiatrist, he didn't tell the players how to do it, he just told the players why to do it, and as for how to do it, George completely left it to the players themselves.

George Crent's words did not immediately change the situation on the court, on the contrary, it made the Lakers players more chaotic, there is no core, the Lakers players don't know how to play, they are used to the existence of Liu Han and O'Neal, every critical moment, they are just waiting for Liu Han and O'Neal to play, but now when they need to attack by themselves, they feel a little uncomfortable.

By the end of the second quarter at 8 and close to 10 minutes, the SuperSonics had narrowed the gap to 10 points, and the Lakers had more and more turnovers on the court, with seven turnovers so far in the second quarter.

However, George Krent still didn't let Liu Han and O'Neal play, but replaced Nash with Ray Allen.

Ray Allen controlled the ball after coming on the court, although he had never played point guard before, but he had trained with Liu Han and Nash for a long time, and he still knew something about how to play point guard.

At this critical moment, the first thing to change was Michael Finley, who no longer asked for the ball on the inside, but took the initiative to catch the ball on the outside, and then began to try to master the rhythm with the dribble that was not very skilful but steady.

With Finley's change, the Lakers gradually found the feeling of the game again, and every player began to think about where to pass the ball if they were point guards.

The Lakers quickly regained the rhythm of the game, with Finley holding the ball in the high post, Horry covering and opening up space for Finley to break through, Ray Allen reappearing as a mobile battery, running back and forth on the baseline, tearing apart the supersonic defense, and Kittels and Brent Barry also began to intersperse runs.

Finley relied on the cover of his teammates to find space to break through, hit the inside, Ray Allen's weak side of the bottom corner was empty, Finley quickly transferred, Ray Allen received the ball and was ready to throw, attracting the supersonic defense, and then transferred the ball again, Kittels received the ball without anyone within two meters of his side, his hand fell with a knife, and he hit a three-point shot, and the Lakers reproduced the score to more than ten points.

At halftime, the Lakers still led the SuperSonics by 13 points, and although the Lakers players only found their groove in the last two minutes of the second quarter, this feeling of the game allowed the Lakers to really mature, and they were no longer a team with Liu Han and O'Neal as the core, but every player who came on the court was the core.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Liu Han and O'Neal, who had rested for a full quarter, returned to the court, and after the two of them came on the court, the Lakers' offense began to become unstoppable.

Liu Han did not possess the ball again after coming on the court, but let Ray Allen continue to play a cameo point guard, but in fact, it was Finley who played the fourth position in the cameo position who really controlled the rhythm.

Halfway through the third quarter, the Lakers reopened the gap to more than 20 points, and Liu Han did his work in the NCAA on the outside, constantly running along the three-point line, tearing the supersonic defense to pieces.

By the end of the third quarter, the Lakers had basically established the victory.

Entering the fourth quarter, the SuperSonics also tried to fight back, they increased their defensive actions, but it didn't help, with O'Neal's free throws getting better, the Lakers are now not worried about the opponent's foul tactics, and now the league is also supporting the Lakers, they will not let the Lakers suffer in this game.

When the game reached 7 minutes of the fourth quarter, George Carr replaced the main player of the SuperSonics and abandoned the game.

The battle ended with a 112-98 victory over the SuperSonics, while the Lakers tied the 33-game winning streak set by predecessors Chamberlain and Jerry West in the '71-72 season.

The Lakers could set a new winning streak in every game they played, and, based on their current form and game play, the Lakers could surpass the Chicago Bulls' 72-10 record at the end of the regular season. (To be continued.) )
