Both sides returned to the pitch.

Harris wanted O'Neal to sit on the bench for the last 37 seconds, but apparently O'Neal couldn't agree, he was disgusted with nausea in this game, and he would be mad if he didn't beat the Trail Blazers himself.

……

In the next offensive round of the Trail Blazers, Kobe Bryant still held the ball, but Kobe did not shoot himself this time, but passed the ball to Rashid, who was the most stable on the court!

Rashid faced the defender, and another turnover straight arm shot hit it steadily!

Richard off the field looked at it and nodded again and again!

As a second-year rookie, Rashid's performance on the field is really stable!

Aside from his somewhat bad temper, it can be said that Rashid is really a good cornerstone for building a team, otherwise, under normal history, the Trail Blazers would not have given Rashid a six-year, $81 million contract at the end of his rookie contract, that is, after next season!

This contract directly gave Paul Allen a reputation for being stupid and rich at the time......

……

The Trail Blazers relied on Rashid's lethal shot to regain the lead and lead the Lakers by one point!

Thirty-one seconds left until the end of the race!

In the offensive round that ended just now, the Trail Blazers only spent 6 seconds, and almost the ball went straight to the front court.

It's the Lakers' turn to possess the ball.

The situation that made Richard's scalp tingle, after O'Neal under the basket received the ball, Sabonis Sr. was ready to send it to the free throw line, but O'Neal made an instant shot with a small hook......

O'Neal not only hit the ball, but also got a free throw!

This whistle actually blows some points worth considering, blowing the foul of old Sabonis in front, O'Neal scoring in the back, if you blow it like this, there is no problem......

In that case, O'Neal's small hook will be voided.

But as the referee blew, the old Sabonis fouled behind, and O'Neal shot in front, and there was nothing too big wrong with such a penalty.

In short, it was an ambiguous decision, everything was in the referee's whim!

The Trailblazers fans at the scene roared loudly and asked the referee to change the decision!

Everyone knows what this decision means for the Trail Blazers, which means that there is a high probability that they will lose this game.

O'Neal gets a 2+1 opportunity, even if he misses a free throw, the Lakers are one point ahead, and the Trail Blazers will be very passive!

"Huh!"

What's even more painful is that O'Neal hit the last free throw of the game, and the Lakers lead by two points!

……

With seventeen seconds left before the end of the game, there was no timeout in Richard's hands.

Richard didn't yell at the field, and in the next seventeen seconds, he decided to leave it to the players to solve it themselves!

With a bunch of newcomers on hand, this is a good opportunity to grow.

Even if this game is really lost, if one of the newcomers can have an epiphany, then this game is not a loss.

Chief assistant coach Carlisle saw that Richard had no intention of arranging tactics, so he stood quietly beside Richard.

Richard's repeated arrangements made Carlisle extremely convinced of Richard, the head coach who is more than ten years younger than himself!

He asked himself if he took the helm of this Trail Blazers team, and if he kept the roster unchanged from last season, he might be able to play like that......

But if the original squad is torn down and rebuilt, and can still play such a record, then Carlisle will definitely not be able to do it.

……

The Lakers lead by two points.

The Trail Blazers, on the other hand, held the ball in this final offensive round.

Of course, it may not be the last attacking round, it will all depend on the improvisation of the players on the field.

If the player pushes the fast break, six or seven seconds to end the next offensive round, and then send O'Neal to the free throw line, and after O'Neal makes the free throw, the Trail Blazers have ten seconds left to attack.

This is undoubtedly the best offensive option.

But this choice is not without problems, the push is not successful, and O'Neal hit both free throws, which can basically declare the Trailblazers to death!

After all, the Trail Blazers team is really not very suitable for pushing fast breaks!

Richard quietly watched the situation on the court and didn't say anything, and then it was up to Kobe.

Kobe Bryant is the main controller of the team, and his choice is the choice of the Trail Blazers!

"I wonder what he will do after striking iron twice in a row?" Richard thought to himself.

……

"Defend! Tight all over the court, don't give them a chance to catch the ball on the outside! Harris, who was on the sidelines of the Lakers, also had no timeout at hand, and he yelled wildly at the court.

Kobe Bryant caught the ball in the bottom corner, and Fan Maniac immediately stepped forward to force the defense.

Other Trail Blazers players are also being marked very closely, and the Lakers know very well that if they defend this round, they will be the winners!

That's why they're defending so hard!

Bryant held the ball directly towards Fan Maniac......

Fan Maniac didn't dare to make too big a move, and if he was blown for a foul at the last moment and sent Kobe Bryant, who had a fairly high free throw shooting percentage, to the free throw line, it would definitely be worth the loss.

I saw that Fan Maniac was facing Kobe Bryant and retreated again and again.

Not only did not have too much physical contact with Kobe, but also hindered Kobe's advancing speed!

In the frontcourt, Bryant observed the situation of his teammates, and all four teammates were outside the three-point line except Sabonis.

Sabonis must not be able to pass this point, because even if it is passed, Sabonis is estimated to be difficult to score under O'Neill's full defense.

Some fans may have misunderstood O'Neal's defense, thinking that O'Neal's defense is not particularly strong......

In fact, if Ao Fat really cheers up, his defense is also worthy of the title of the most dominant interior line in history.

His single-game block record is 15!

Not only defense, but also Ao Fat's rebounding is also very strong, if he really cares about these things, averaging 15 rebounds per game in a single season is not a difficult task for him......

It can be said that except for the shortcoming of free throws, Ao Fat has no shortcomings.

Bryant was quick to determine that Sabonis couldn't pass ......

But the other three teammates are now being guarded by the opponent, and if Bryant's passing ability can reach that level of supernatural ability, then he may pass it to his teammates.

It's a pity that he didn't......

He knew very well that his next pass, if he rashly passed it, it might be broken!

"Cast!"

"Vote for yourself!"

"Fuck it!"

Kobe Bryant quickly set his eyes on the basket!

At this moment, he only has the basket in his eyes, and he has forgotten that his last shot ended with three non-sticks......
