As for Sprewell, his form had completely vanished, and even if he was set free, he wouldn't be able to help the team on the offensive end.
So regrettably, no one would take Sprewell's position.
More and more fans were turning on their TVs to watch this game, nobody wanted to miss such an extreme performance of one-on-one basketball.
In the following game, Roger tormented Sprewell's nerves in every way imaginable.
Even the fans felt that Sprewell's experience was simply too tragic.
Every round he would be blown past; every round he would be targeted.
In the second quarter, at the fifth minute, Sprewell finally managed to draw a foul through a breakaway, but since his mentality had already collapsed, he only made one of the two free throws, securing just one point.
That was also his only score up to that point.
