During this period, nearly every Los Angeles Lakers offensive and defensive advantage was achieved by Michael Udin!
It's safe to say that Michael Udin singlehandedly climaxed the game 11-0 for the Los Angeles Lakers!
With such performances in the first game of the playoffs, Michael Udin has truly earned the trust of his coaching staff and team-mates, and his prestige within the team is already on par with Nick Van Exel.
Right now, what Michael Udin wants is to keep playing better.
After returning from a timeout, the Portland Trail Blazers coach decided to let Rasheed Wallace defend the Sharks alone.
Such a result was also predictable, but according to the Coach's idea, Shaquille O'Neal had a rebound inside, which was two points. If a foul is used to break it to the free throw line, the Portland Trail Blazers Team will also have good expectations.
Compared to Michael Udin's attack on a three-pointer, he might prefer Shaquille O'Neal chiseling one ball at a time.
Facts have proven Shaquille O'Neal is asking for the ball inside, and Rasheed Wallace is gradually focusing on the tyrannical attack of the great shark.
Rasheed Wallace continued to be depressed.
Even with Sabonis back, the Portland Trail Blazers' attack and defense have improved, but the Los Angeles Lakers are still winning points thanks to Shaq's unmatched dominance.
Western Conference series round, the Los Angeles Lakers temporarily lead the Portland Trail Blazers 1:0.
Shaquille O'Neal made 17 of 27 shots, 12 of 18 free throws and had 44 points and 12 rebounds!
And Michael Udin made 8 of 12 shots, scoring 20 points efficiently, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 4 blocks.
Michael Udin also became the second Los Angeles Lakers hero with this performance!
"How was the first playoff game of your life?"
Now Michael Udin is Shaq's number one younger brother now, he hugged Michael Udin by the neck as he walked into the locker room.
"This kind of playoff atmosphere, it's easier to stimulate the potential in my body!"
It was clear the game had been played, but Michael Udin's body and mind were still in the state of the game's environment.
"Very good, Odin!
You have the potential to be a great player, and my playoff stats will definitely be better than the regular season! "
In Game two of the Los Angeles Lakers Michael Udin brought in such a strong performance, even though the Trail Blazers coach had tried all night to hold Shaq off, but he couldn't stop the big Shaq from playing.
Shaquille O'Neal scores another 30+,
Michael Udin, Nick Van Exel and Kobe all scored in double digits. The Los Angeles Lakers beat their opponents 107-93. They also flew to the Rose Garden Arena with a 2:0 score advantage!
Back at the Rose Garden Arena, the Trail Blazers Coach wants to understand the truth, namely, that Shaquille O'Neal cannot be limited. Instead of wasting his brains defending Shaq, he had to figure out how to do it. Resolve violations more efficiently.
It was an idea like that that ultimately turned the desperate Portland Trail Blazers.
Sabonis displayed an aggressive defense from the first minute of the game, despite being quickly fouled twice by Shaq early in the game, but Coach Trail Blazers had no intention of changing the team's Center.
In attack, the Portland Trail Blazers, under the leadership of Kenny Anderson, tried their best to speed up and play fast, often without waiting for Sabonis to run through the half field, they would finish the offense.
The General-like Kenny Anderson is not only very efficient, he also connects with the rest of his teammates very well.
Such a fast speed made Shaquille O'Neal also a little lost in such chaos.
At the end of the first half, the Portland Trail Blazers took the lead with a score of 41-27.
The Los Angeles Lakers didn't want to fight desperately in the first round of the playoffs, they wanted to end the game in Portland as soon as possible, because in another game the Utah Jazz had swept the Los Angeles Clippers 3-0 and were waiting for the second round.
But the Trail Blazers coach learned a lot of truth in the final game. He couldn't expect Kenny Anderson to score 30 points and 11 assists in this game
The Los Angeles Lakers hold a 2:1 match point, and for the Portland Trail Blazers, today's home game is their life or death battle.
Sabonis was completely reduced to a tool to harass Shaquille O'Neal in the last game, which also seriously hurt his pride as a renowned European center.
After Sabonis was beaten by Shaq for five or six games, he could always play a game close to Shaq.
With media attention and the help of fans, the illusion that Sabonis can compete with Shaquille O'Neal will mysteriously form.
However, it is not surprising that such a situation occurs. After all, it was legendary enough to occasionally explode when facing such a physical Shaq. Moreover, the great shark itself has great respect for its opponent.
In this game, Sabonis showed a good feeling at the beginning of the game, he hit the big shark with his back and repeatedly made difficult punches!
The Trail Blazers coach also changed his mind and arranged for Rasheed Wallace to focus on protecting Sabonis' offense in defence.
The facts prove With an excellent offensive touch and a smooth draw, until the last two minutes of the game, the Portland Trail Blazers regained a 90-88 lead over the Los Angeles Lakers.
As the Trail Blazers Coach judged, Kenny Anderson couldn't make a small bang in every game, so far in the last game, he's only scored 1-digit numbers.
If Kenny Anderson can still maintain the somewhat unscientific state of the last game, the Los Angeles Lakers can only think of how to deal with the final battle after returning to Los Angeles.
Coach Delmar Harris requested a timeout. Even though Shaq scored 30 points today, his offense was inefficient compared to himself. The Portland Trail Blazers home game will cause damage to the Los Angeles Lakers in the final game.
Michael Udin's performance in this game can only be said to be quite satisfying, especially since the main theme today is the main center between the two teams, Shaquille O'Neal and Sabonis.
Nick Van Exel was also eliminated after being smashed to pieces in the final game. Michael Udin, who had little possession, put more energy into the defence.
Even though the Portland Trail Blazers lead by 2 points, their great hidden danger still keeps the Trail Blazers trainers walking on thin layers of ice.
And coach Delmar Harris also made arrangements for this variable in the Portland Trail Blazers.
"Rasheed Wallace has committed many fouls, Odin, you must take the initiative to hit him!
Get off your hands and feet, don't be afraid to make mistakes, you just do what I say!
Now that their attacks are also focused on Wallace, their European center can't run, and their hit rate is also very bad!
Odin, you must limit Rasheed Wallace's attacks as much as possible, if you can take him down, then we will win! "
Delmar Harris' suspension this time is equivalent to calling for Michael Udin alone. The pressure in this series can be said to be on Michael Udin's shoulders at once.
Even though he had lived two lives, he could feel the weight of ten thousand pounds on his shoulders.
If this game doesn't end the series, then back to Los Angeles, it all starts from scratch.
"Don't worry, coach!
I can do this job well! "
Michael Udin nodded his head vigorously, and his eyes stared straight into Delmar Harris's!
"Good! That's all I want!"
Delmar Harris was pleased with Michael Udin's answer.
