"We fought until the last moment, and God chose to side with them in the end. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 At the press conference, Harris shook his head a little helplessly, "I'm proud of my players, we played our true colors against this championship-caliber team. The next thing we need to focus on is trying to win them in Los Angeles. ”

As for Kobe's poor performance in two consecutive games, Harris did not complain anything, but he also praised Kobe, "Kobe Bryant, this little guy has done a very good job, we need him to shoot, and haven't you noticed that he has 11 assists in this game?" ”

......

After returning to Los Angeles, Harris, who has always been known for his strict training, surprisingly gave the players a day of relaxation, and he also knew that the Lakers players were too tired lately and really needed to take a break, and, in fact, there was a little bit of indifference in his thoughts.

Anyway, the Lakers have no chance of winning, so he might as well conserve his strength and save any injuries for nothing.

The Lakers' players are resting, while playoff games elsewhere are in full swing.

For Houston, the SuperSonics stuck with a seven-man rotation, and they forced a win on the Rockets' road with iron-blooded offense and defense, and they defeated the Rockets with a luxurious roster 106-101. The SuperSonics starting five all scored 15+, "Rain Man" Sean Kemp once again played a superstar performance, he played 39 minutes and cut 22 points, 15 boards, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 block on 7-of-12 shooting, "Glove" Gary Payton played almost the whole game, he played 47 minutes and handed over 17 points, 9 assists, 3 steals and 2 rebounds, Sam Perkins 18 points and 2 boards, Detreve Schramf 17 points, 6 boards, 2 assists and 2 steals, but it is also worth mentioning SuperSonics guard Jose Hawkins, The guard, who averaged 13.9 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3 assists per game this season, ushered in an explosion in this game, he played 40 minutes and scored 21 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 6 steals on 6-of-13 shooting, which is an all-around statistic of 20+5+5+5, he is influencing the team on both offensive and defensive ends.

The Rockets showed that none of the Big Three played well outside of the 65 points together, but the most fatal point was because of the free throws, their team's free throw shooting rate in this game was only a pitiful 70 percent, they made a total of 32 free throws, only 22 hits, and the supersonic free throws were 33 free throws and 31 hits, which directly led to the Rockets' loss.

The first game between the Knicks and the Magic in the East also ended with an 88-80 home win for the Knicks, Ewing handed over 24 points, 16 rebounds and 5 blocks, while O'Neal only scored 19 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks, which was one of the few games in O'Neal's career that Ewing was suppressed.

After a day of rest, the Lakers' players recovered a lot, and on May 8, they welcomed the Jazz at home.

The Lakers are now 2-0 down, and they will have to win at least one win at home if they want to avoid being swept by the Jazz.

However, having self-confidence does not mean that you can make up for the gap in strength, and the Lakers fell into the disadvantage at the beginning of the game.

Karl Malone showed his determination to attack resolutely from the beginning, he frequently singled Campbell, causing Campbell to foul several times, just over the halfway point of the first quarter, Campbell had already been replaced by Harris with two fouls, and Hawley, who replaced him, still did not have a good way to deal with Malone.

Fortunately, Toney's shooting percentage at the beginning of today was good, the Lakers had no way against Malone, and the Jazz had no way against Tony, although Kobe Bryant was still playing iron, but the Lakers were still able to bite the score with difficulty with Toney's deterrence at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers trailed by three points at 22-25.

Harris made the decision to make a substitution in the second quarter, pressing Kobe Bryant to the bench and then putting Jones in the No. 2 position and Hawley in the No. 3 position. Kobe Bryant can be said to have completely lost the direction of the basket in the face of the Jazz, and his shooting in the first two games and the first quarter of this game can be described as miserable.

However, such a change of formation is still useless, the Jazz have always had a firm grasp of the rhythm of the game, although Fisher is loved by Harris for his calm and steady, but when he meets the league's No. 1 point guard Stockton, he is full of ugliness.

To Harris's helplessness, he insisted on sending a starting lineup in the second quarter, but they couldn't even get the upper hand on the Jazz's bench lineup, Jerry Sloan gave some bench players a chance to play in the second quarter to buy more rest time for the two evils, and the Lakers could still maintain a win-lose in the face of the Jazz's bench lineup, but when Sloan returned to the starting lineup, the Lakers fell into the disadvantage again.

The hard work and bloodiness shown by the Lakers in the last game are missing in this game, and whenever the Lakers are just gaining momentum under the leadership of Tony, Stockton can always find a way to disrupt the rhythm of the Lakers.

By halftime, the Lakers were trailing by seven points, 44-51.

The game has reached this point, and it can only be described as aggrieved.

At halftime, the Lakers fell silent, and although the score is not much different now, the Lakers players just can't get the slightest hope of winning.

Jazz is just too strong.

In the second half, the Lakers still didn't find a chance to fight back, they were led by the Jazz by the nose, and by the last minutes of the game, the Lakers had fallen behind by 13 points.

Bryant made three three-pointers in desperation in an attempt to regain the score, but helplessly, all three three-pointers turned into three no-sticks.

110:95

The Lakers eventually lost the home game by a huge 15 points, and their big score became 0:3, and if they lost the next game, their season would be over.

Tony still played the whole game, he scored 26 points, 11 rebounds and 4 blocks on 10 of 15 shots, which can be said to be his best, Kobe Bryant shot 5 of 16 and scored 14 points, and he has shot less than four percent for the third consecutive game, which is undoubtedly a great shame for him with a proud personality.

On the Jazz side, Karl Malone ushered in a big explosion this time, he shot 12-of-27 from the field, 18-of-18 from the free-throw line, slashed 42 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists, and their small forward Brian Russell also handed over 29 points and 10 boards, completely breaking Jones, and Stockton delivered 11 points and 11 assists, once again connecting the team.
