Kobe said no one expected us to win. I posted that before the game along with
WE'RE GOING TO SHOCK THE WORLD

I agree. |
The most incredible thing about tonight win is that our most psyched player tonight was the best, our own superstar. When he missed that tech free throw I almost threw the beer can to the LCD (like the guy with the Wii)

Go over to the Celts board and let me know how they feel

you must be kidding me, must be watching another game. Pau was getting knocked around in there with no calls. And everytime Pierce flings his head back they call a foul on Kobe. |

vs Boston I prefer the Gasol/Odom 2 man game. Let Kobe keep Pierce out there while our bigs eat them alive inside. |

100% agreed - Kobe should have given up those shots when Pierce was guarding him 1 on 1 at end of game (and you could see Kobe was obviously tired - his shots were short when they missed) - and gone inside to Gasol especially.
Gasol had biggest mismatch with Baby - Lakers did not exploit it enough when Garnett fouled out.
I am sure when they watch the tapes - will see they could have played that much better. |

| This road trip has been a complete success regardless of what happens in Cleveland but I think we can win that game. We have ended 2 Boston double digit win streaks and now we have a chance to end Cleveland's home streak. |

| I'm proud of Lamar and Pau. They showed some toughness out there tonight. Kobe looked tired most of the night. He took some bad shots, but he still kept us in the game with those dagger 3s. Also, he was still able to summon up enough energy to lockdown on Pierce during some of those closing possessions. |

disagree. lamar played well in the second half, pau carried us throughout the entire game. GAHARD was clearly the player of the game. |

I'm proud of Pau and LO for standing up to Garnet. LO's tough, he's a nice guy but he's tough. Gasol has really toughened up this year, sure, he's had a few bad games but he's been taking a beating out there and the criminal refs don't call even half of it. I think he just might have what it takes to show up in the championship series this year.
LO had a breakout game for him, I can't remember him showing up for a bigger game than this one. Let's just hope he can keep it going, get that ring. |

I guess you missed that dunk by Gasol in overtime when he practically got his head knocked off and they didn't give him the and-one. |

THAT would be sweet!!! If only.... Ownage of the tie-breaker for both Boston and Cleveland would be huge. Breaking Cleveland's home streak after Lebronze's selfish attempt at MSG one-upsmanship... priceless.  |
