Chapter 561: Chapter 561 West Conference Semifinals 1

Chapter 561 West Conference Semifinals 1

Jake went after a few hours to do training with the Los Angeles Lakers team, Jake could see that his teammates were excited about the win, but they were also tired from the last few games.

Of course, the players wanted to play all the playoff games as long as they could, after all, besides being important for the team, it was also important for their career, so the players were trying hard in training even though they were tired.

Jake was not so worried because he thought that with those 2 days without a game the players would be able to rest well before the next game if Shaq and Kobe continued playing well, the Los Angeles Lakers team could win the 4 games and advance to the next phase.

The San Antonio Spurs team was having more difficulty and lost the first game and won the second game against the Utah Jazz team, so regardless of which team progressed in that phase the Los Angeles Lakers team would have more time to rest if they won the 4 games without losing no game.

Jake no longer knew what could happen in the next games because it was different from what happened in his past life, so Jake just hoped that Kobe and Shaq would continue to perform well in the next games.

Not only Shaq and Kobe but also Dennis and Rick were important for the Los Angeles Lakers team to win in the next games, Rick and Dennis were not playing very well in that last game and therefore the game was more difficult for the Lakers team to win.

After training Jake returned to his house and the next day the players of the Los Angeles Lakers team could rest, the next day Jake and Eva left Los Angeles to go to Portland, Oregon.

The directors of the Los Angeles Lakers team decided it was best for the Lakers players to travel to Portland, Oregon the day before the game so they wouldn't get too tired, so Eva also went to Portland, Oregon by helicopter with a hotel room ready for her.

In the last games, the Portland Trail Blazers team played very well and the games were balanced, as were all the games between the two teams throughout the season, just as Jake hoped the Portland Trail Blazers team was a tough opponent.

Even more in this game that the Portland Trail Blazers team would play at home with the confidence of the last game that they almost managed to win, Jake hoped that the players of the Los Angeles Lakers team were playing well and so he would try harder for the Lakers team achieve victory.

Kobe received the ball and Isaiah Rider came on to defend, Kobe was one of the best players in the Los Angeles Lakers team in the last game with 32 points and just wasn't the best because Jake was more important at the end of the game and made a triple-double.

So Kobe had more confidence in this game and he would not try so hard because he was more tired, Kobe held the ball for a while and passed it to Rick Fox on the left, Rick received the ball and Brian Grant came pressing on the defense.

Sabonis still tried to defend, but he didn't want to miss and Jake attacked too fast and Jake's play was unexpected for him, and for Shaq also waiting for the pass, the Portland Trail Blazers fans did not like the play, but the fans respected Jake's ability.

Stoudamire was a little embarrassed after the ankle break play on the last move, but he tried to keep defending even though he knew Jake's speed was higher and after 2 dribble he lost his balance and fell.

Jake knew that the biggest weakness of the Los Angeles Lakers team was the coach Rambis, the Los Angeles Lakers team achieved several victories with the players having an excellent performance and achieving the victory for the Lakers team.

When they lost it was when Shaq or Kobe were not playing well and the opponent was playing well, this was because the opponent knew the weaknesses of the Los Angeles Lakers team and Coach Rambis could not change the team's playing style if Shaq and Kobe did not. were playing well.
