NBA Finals - Celtics vs. Lakers

So far so good, the Lakers got a little relaxed there in the second quarter, but managed to clean it up. Lamar and Gasol came to play tonight, Ariza and Fisher are doing their part and the shooters for the Lakers are doing well. My concern at this point is Kobe, his energy was a concern before the game, but now I have a raised eyebrow. I can't remember the last time he ended the first half with 3 points and 3 fouls. Also, the third quarter has been a huge problem for LA, I hope they can fix that tonight and extend the lead.

This one looked pretty much over in the first quarter but the Celts have actually crept back within 2 at the end of the third quarter. :)

With 12 minute quarters, a 24 second shot clock, and a 3 point line things can change in a hurry, like they did the 4th quarter of game two.

Go C's!

Never count an NBA game over till it is over or there is about 3 minutes left and the other team is up 20...

WHo would of ever thought we were going to see PJ Brown dunk on Kobe in this series...

If the third quarter is the evidence then the players must be in on it, too.

Boston's shots fell in the 3rd and they picked up the D...Kobe forced some shots...

Nothing to do with the refs and it being fixed...

Lakers got relaxed, started taking stupid shots and relaxing on defense, now the Celtics are fired up, and the Lakers need to respond. Doc Rivers tossing in that smaller line up was the same strategy that the Lakers used in game 2, and it had the same result, raining shots from the outside.

Just going to throw this out there...Vujacic is one of those guys that is annoying to watch unless you are a fan...He body manuevers and acting are very fake...

Like the time when he had Allen in a scissors lock with his legs and he fell the opposte way and screamed like he was getting raped...

To be honest, he's kind of annoying to watch even as a fan. The guy doesn't give up and you love that, but he flops and commits stupid fouls which pisses you off.
