West Conference Semifinals 5
Jake was smart in that play, and Shaq was also very good, and so the Portland Trail Blazers players still didn't know about the Los Angeles Lakers' strategy in that game, so the Lakers team had the advantage.
Soon after, the Portland Trail Blazers tried to attack to reduce the advantage in points that the Los Angeles Lakers had, but Rider missed the mid-range shot and Dennis Rodman caught the first defensive rebound that was very important for the Lakers team.
In the next play, Jake made another individual play and passed the ball to Shaq again who added 2 more points to the Los Angeles Lakers team, so the Lakers team increased the advantage by 8 points and the Portland Trail Blazers team would have to fight to be able to turn the game.
