LOS ANGELES — The Portland
Trail Blazers might go quickly in their
first-round playoff series against the
Los Angeles Lakers.
They w on’t go quietly.
After the Lakers went on a 19-Orun
at the end o f the third quarter and start
o f the fourth to win the series opener
,06-93 Sunday, the Blazers com­
plained about how Shaquille O ’Neal
played and how the officials reacted.
“I don’t know what to tell our guys
about Shaq,” Portland coach Mike
Dunleavy said. “He hits you every
time, he sits in the lane for five or six
seconds. “The problem is when he’s
getting some deep catches after be­
ing in the lane so long — it’s hard to
stop him.” Portland’s Scottie Pippen
said nobody will beat the Lakers if
O ’Neal is allowed to push the Blazers
around. “ It was just ridiculous, the
way they called the game,” Pippen
said. “And then they called tap fouls.
Maybe they want the game to turn out
this way. If they’re going to let him
lead with his elbows, throw guys out
o f the way, then w e're going to have
to change the way we play." Pippen
also said: “Our defense is geared to
stop Shaq. The other guys are step­
ping up for them, that’s the key.”
O ’Neal, who had 24 points and 20
rebounds but made only 3 3 percent of
his field goal attempts, reacted angrily
when informed o f Dunleavy’s re­
marks, saying, “Tell Dunleavy to get
someone to play me; all they do is
cry.
O ’Neal said he felt he had an off-
game. “I don’t usually shoot 7-for-21,
that’s a disgrace," he said. “They’re
