'We're really disappointed with the decision but it's the playoffs, anything can happen, we lost, that's a fact, so what we have to do next is to go back home and beat them. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Harris replied very officially, and his way of answering was much more rational than that of Tony and Kobe.

......

Not long after the end of the game, the news of the Eastern Conference Detroit was also heard, and Grant Hill scored a game-high 28 points, but the Pistons lost to the Hawks 82-94. The fifth game between the two sides will be played at the home of the Atlanta Hawks, so the Pistons lose the initiative.

Jerry Buss personally came to the airport to welcome the Lakers players back, and the away loss was actually a good thing for him, so he could earn an extra game of ticket money, and although Kobe Bryant and Toney have created more value for him this year, he still doesn't mind making more.

However, Jerry Buss is not a stingy person, he has recently started to prepare for the player's plane, and when it is done, the Lakers will no longer have to go to the airport to grab business class with a group of ordinary people when they go to play on the road.

Back in Los Angeles, the Lakers' faces that had been gloomy because of the fiasco finally stretched a lot, and after such a terrible game in Portland, they suddenly felt like they were home when they returned to their home court.

And just as the Lakers began to prepare for this last life-and-death battle, on the other side of Seattle, the superSonics and the Suns' life-and-death battle has come to an end.

116:92

The SuperSonics, who dominated the home field advantage and squad depth, turned what should have been a tense and exciting tie-break into a slaughter with a huge 24-point difference.

The Suns were suppressed by the SuperSonics from the beginning of the game, and they dug a 22-point hole in the entire first half, although they played a 32-18 comeback under the leadership of Jason Kidd in the third quarter, and once narrowed the score to less than 10 points, but helplessly the SuperSonics launched a more ferocious offensive in the final quarter.

Jason Kidd delivered a quasi-triple-double of 17 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, but he couldn't help the Suns win this series. However, Suns fans are already very happy with this result, you must know that the team's record when the Suns did not trade to Kidd in the middle of the season can be said to be difficult to make the playoffs, and with the arrival of Kidd, he immediately helped the team win 23 of 33 games, and the Suns were able to barely enter the playoffs.

In the first round of the playoffs, Jason Kidd averaged 12 points, 6 rebounds, 9.8 assists and 2.2 steals per game, and it was under his leadership that the Suns evolved from a lottery team to a dark horse that could compete with the third third in the West for 5 games, and more importantly, this is only the third year of this 94-year-old rookie career, if nothing else, the Suns will definitely use this potential player as the cornerstone of the team in the future.

And after the game between the Suns and the SuperSonics, the entire league has already won and lost except for the Lakers and Trail Blazers in the West, and the Hawks and Pistons in the East.

On May 4, the two divisional semi-finals between the East and West were also announced to begin at the same time.

Los Angeles Forum Arena.

Tickets for the Lakers Arena are still sold out early, and the audience is now packed.

After the players of both sides warmed up on the court, the game officially began and entered the jumping ball stage.

The basketball was thrown high into the air with the referee's whistle, and then Tony and Sabonis jumped almost simultaneously to compete for the ball.

Tony jumped a little higher, so the Lakers won the jump.

Fisher was like a nimble little fish, dodging the opposition's pressing while rushing to the front.

Kenny Anderson stuck to Fisher like a maggot on a tarsal bone, and although he wasn't as strong as Fisher, he could still be guaranteed not to break through easily.

Fisher and Toney played a block first, he tried to break through the opponent's defense in time, Fisher had to give up, he handed the ball to Kobe Bryant, who received it.

Bryant took the ball and stopped, protecting it with his hands from beyond the three-point line and leaning forward to avoid a steal from Isaiah Ryder, but his eyes were staring at the basket in embarrassment.

Even Leddle, who was standing opposite him, could faintly feel that Kobe Bryant was different in today's game, and his fighting spirit became more vigorous.

But...... Who isn't?! This match will determine which of the two sides will advance, and no one on either side will be able to play at this level.

He's maxed out his focus, he's been suffering from the kid in front of him since the first few games, and he knows exactly what happens if he makes the slightest mistake.

Bryant made a couple of tentative steps, and Ryder carefully stared at Bryant's movements, and he was very careful not to be fooled.

However, Kobe's next tentative step turned directly into a breakthrough, and Lyder still thought it was a feint, and by the time he reacted, it was already a step too late, and Kobe had already broken through more than half of his body.

Passing Ryder, Kobe Bryant went straight to the inside of the Trail Blazers.

Wallace hurriedly came over to make up for it, and his lateral movement was fast enough, but still not as fast as Kobe's frontal breakaway.

Bryant dodged Sabonis in the air and hit a backhand layup for the Lakers to take the lead.

The ball came to the Trail Blazers.

Kenny Anderson still chose to give the ball to Sabonis on the inside to play alone, Sabonis scored 23 points on 10-of-16 shooting in the last game, and he felt very good, so the Trail Blazers decided to play Sabonis first.

Sabonis got his back to Toney to receive the ball, and he hit it twice.

This Sabonis's strength is really outstanding, and the so-called monoclonal antibody O'Neill is not in vain, and Tony can't help but be pushed back two steps for a while.

However, Sabonis did not take advantage of this gap to score, his turn and board throw was still a slow beat, and Toni gently brushed Sabonis's shot, but it was enough to deflect the parabola of the basketball, and Sabonis hit the iron.

Tony picks up the rebound and throws it to Fisher.

The Lakers launched a tried and tested counterattack, after Jones took Fisher's pass, like a sharp arrow straight into the Trail Blazers' interior line, the Trail Blazers' defense can not be said to be slow, but they can't complete the position in time, and they will be caught off guard by the Lakers every time.

Jones missed a layup, but he managed to cause a foul on Clifford Robinson.
