Immediately after the press conference, Richard led the team back to Portland.

Although the Lakers have been double-killed now, they still can't be taken lightly.

There is still a gap in the strength of the two sides, the Lakers were unlucky in one game, and they were overshadowed by Richard, so they missed a good game.

It will not be so easy for Richard to encounter these good things again.

On April 30, Portland will sit at home to face the Los Angeles Lakers, and G3 is about to begin.

The Trail Blazers ended up losing quite cleanly, and the first two games combined to give the Lakers a total of five points, only to be doubled in this game......

At 109:94, the Lakers won by 15 points on the home court of the Trail Blazers.

O'Neal was completely unsolvable in this game, and the original embarrassing free throws also reached a terrifying seven out of five in this game!

20 free throws, fifteen of which were hit......

easily got 41 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks in a single game, leading the Lakers to defeat the Trail Blazers in the third quarter.

Although this is the home court of the Trail Blazers, the Trail Blazers have not enjoyed any home whistle, but this is not a key factor in losing, even if the referee gives the home whistle in this game, I am afraid that the Trail Blazers will lose more miserably.

You must know that O'Neal's stats are played in three quarters, and if he plays four quarters, the devil knows what kind of stats he can get.

Richard's criticism tactics didn't play a role in this game, and O'Neill seemed to have developed antibodies, and he was directly immune to trash talk......

Richard even wondered if the goods were on the field with earplugs.

……

After G3 lost under O'Neal's no-brainer, G4's situation was not much better.

The elder Sabonis showed a disadvantage in the confrontation with O'Neal, and was blown up at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.

The result did not come as Richard expected, and the first meeting between Sabonis and O'Neal in the playoffs was a complete affair......

But Richard can't help it, he knows very well that if he puts little O'Neill with Big Ben, the effect will be even worse, and he may beat little O'Neill to autism!

In this fourth game, O'Neal didn't score much, mainly because their outside firepower was turned on in this game.

There weren't many points, but O'Neal's defense and rebounding in this game were extremely amazing.

The final data of 27 points, 20 rebounds and 5 blocks was another hard lesson for the Trail Blazers......

……

The Trail Blazers, who originally doubled the Lakers and got an excellent start, are now in an extremely embarrassing situation.

After narrowly winning two games, the last two games were directly blown up by the Lakers......

In the upcoming G5, the tiebreaker, except for some die-hard fans of the Trail Blazers, basically no one is optimistic that the Trail Blazers can advance.

The first two games, judging from the current situation, are definitely the Trail Blazers' shit luck.

There is really a gap in the strength of the two sides, at least before this gang of Portland stunned youths grows up, the Lakers can really easily hang the hammer Trail Blazers under normal circumstances.

……

On a plane to Los Angeles.

"BOSS, what should we do in this next tiebreaker?" Little Stevens sat next to Richard.

The current situation, in the eyes of little Stevens, is not close to a mortal situation.

Unless God is on the side of their pioneers again......

Richard frowned, he had been pondering this matter, what to do.

In the case of a normal confrontation, the Trail Blazers are difficult to be the opponents of the Lakers, both sides are playing positional battles, and in the case of positional battles, O'Neal's big bug cannot be solved.

If the big bug of O'Neal can be solved, let alone the Trail Blazers, there are many teams in the league who can easily solve the Lakers.

But is O'Neill, the most dominant inside line in history, so easy to solve?!

Richard smiled wryly and shook his head at little Stevens......

He couldn't think of anything too good right now.

"BOSS, I have an idea, but it's very risky and aggressive, and if we don't play well, we may lose the Trailblazers!" Little Stevens spoke.

Richard was stunned, Stevens had a way?

I have always ignored this genius, and I have always used him as an assistant.

"Let's talk about it, I've consulted with Carlisle, but I haven't found any good solution, tell me what you think, maybe it will turn the tide of things......" Richard looked at Stevens expectantly.

Carlisle is not a very impressive coach in terms of tactics, and his real strength lies in the squad configuration and the potential of the players.

Give him a team and he can help you build a squad that doesn't go wrong, and some of the players that are buried can get better under him.

For example, the Pistons, such as the Pacers, such as the Mavericks, these are all his masterpieces.

Stevens, on the other hand, is an all-round talent, and it seems that he is quite good in terms of squad configuration, potential and tactical arrangement, even if Stevens is a new melon egg, but it is still possible to have an excellent idea pop up in his head.

Under Richard's encouraging gaze, Stevens spoke his mind.

"BOSS, I feel that against the Lakers, we can't continue to fight positionally, we have to hurry up and fight with them with bayonets!"

"They have an O'Neill, and we fight with them in positional warfare, and we are inherently at a disadvantage......"

Richard listened and nodded, "You mean we're going to speed up?" Go on. ”

"That's right, speed up! Our lineup can be accelerated, even if it is the big book of the inside, it can be completely accelerated, as long as he does a good job of protecting the frontcourt and backcourt rebounds, and then runs back and forth with his teammates, he can definitely do this! ”

"On the offensive end, although we are fast, O'Neal's pace may be able to keep up with some rounds or even a quarter, but after a long time, he will definitely not be able to bear it...... In this way, we can grab a three-point shot before O'Neal is down, regardless of whether his teammates are in position or not, as long as the big basket occupies a favorable position to grab rebounds, then we can soar to three points! ”

"On the defensive end, we can't do anything about this, the Lakers definitely still have to fight a positional battle, we can only continue to cut the sharks as much as possible, continue to defend to the death!"

"In this case, if we have a higher three-point shooting percentage, we may be able to kill the Lakers!"

Stevens, who said all his thoughts, looked at Richard with blazing eyes, waiting for Richard to give an evaluation.

In fact, he had this idea before the start of this series, but because Carlisle and Richard were in charge of the tactical matters, and he won the first two games, he didn't say what he thought.

And now that the fateful situation had arrived, Stevens felt the need to speak.

If you don't open your mouth, you won't have a chance to speak, so won't you wait for the team to be eliminated before you speak? This kind of afterthought behavior is still quite annoying......

In a sense, Stevens can definitely be said to be the lucky one favored by God, whether it is appearance, IQ, EQ, or background, it seems to be quite good......

……

When Richard heard Stevens' thoughts, he couldn't wait to slap Stevens on the back of the head.

Why didn't this kid say it earlier!
