Celts lead series 2-1.

Good game by both teams...

 

Kobe led the way for the Lakers with a lot of help from Vurijec. Ray Allen led the way for Boston. The other two big name players were pretty quiet tonight.

Kobe does what he does and finishes the game. Lakers still played pretty poorly. WAKE UP LAMAR THIS IS THE NBA FINALS!!!

Key to the game: Paul Pierce- 6 points

 

If the Lakers can find a way to hold him in check they can win the next two at home. IMO he's the motor that makes the Celtics go.

 

Kobe was clutch down the stretch and throughout the whole game. Odom will need to play better though.

I ripped on Sasha at the beginning of the game but he was huge tonight. Series still hasn't started IMO and won't till someone wins on the road.

36 points for Kobe...Could have had over 40 but poor free throw shooting prevented it. I'll take the win though.

Why don't you rip on him again on Thursday, lol. I would like to see it get tied up at 2-2, just so we have a better series. I will admit about Sasha, he really seems to act like he thinks he is a much better player than he really is...but the confidence helped him tonight.

I agree. I think if L.A can win the next two at home the series is theirs. L.A should be able to take atleast one in Boston. But then again the same can be said for Boston in L.A.

The shots he made he was set and had decent looks. I get really mad when he shoots off the dribble.

If the Lakers tie the series up, I think you'll see the Celtics tense up some. Lakers need to win games 4 and 5 to have a shot at winning the series though. It will be extremely tough to win in Boston twice.

Yeah I agree...he is definitely a set shooter. You can tell from the way he releases and the trajectory of his shot, very much a line drive compare to most.
