Both agreed verbally, but there was still mutual discontent in their hearts, especially Little O'Neal.
Little O'Neal had been suppressed by Kobe for too long, and this time he harden up, making himself exhilarated and unable to hold back.
As a result, the two agreed with Bird to shake hands and make peace, but on June 5th during team training, they clashed due to a verbal dispute.
During training, Kobe liked to pressure his teammates, loudly reprimanding anyone who didn't play well and using trash talking to educate them.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the Trail Blazers' training had always been oppressive and intense, very different from the "unity, tension, seriousness, and cheerfulness" atmosphere when Ah Gan was around.
Pure high pressure without a cheerful and united relationship as a relief valve can easily lead to conflict.
As a result, Kobe and Little O'Neal clashed during training over offense and defense issues, with Little O'Neal giving Kobe a block.
