I've never liked Odom but he was the #1 reason the Lakers won last night.

If either team had just one more stat in any major category, it probably would have changed the outcome of the game. Especially there in OT.

Agreed. He basically stepped up to KG, and he did none of his crawling because LO would have none of it. His butt-slapping and his crazy laugh are just too much for KG. If you think about it, LO can do all the thing KG does if he wanted to. He just doesn't do it on a consistent basis. Complete team effort though. All the Lakers stepped up. Best win of the season by far. |

-no bynum obviously
-and at boston
to pull out a win with all that is definitely nice and we can know we own boston at least for the regular season
and i'm certainly glad out of the 2 games we had here (bos / cle) that we won this one, if we had to lose one i'd rather lose to cleveland than boston |
Don't forget we were playing another game less than 24 hours earlier, in another country!!!!!! We did this on a back to back, and Boston had 2 days rest.

Well, in a 1-point OT game, missed free throws were huge. Should we wait until they cost us another game before we complain?

Garnett after fouling out of the game. He said its tough to watch games, and that he hates to miss games. "Ive always said, If I can walk, I can play" KG
Didnt he sit the previous two because he wasnt feeling well? |

Wow. The flu he was suffering from must have been pretty bad if he couldn't walk.  |

| Worrisome but their legs weren't there. Back to backs can do that to you. |

| I agree, i hate it when we miss our free throws, but the legs are tired after the back to backs. Should shoot better next game. |

| It would have felt like Sac in game 7. But not really, but losing to the Celtics on a back to back without our big guy because of missed free throws would have felt like losing a game 7 for one night at least. |

| I honestly think that the Foston crowd had a lot to do with the piss poor free throw shooting. We choked on the line. I'm not buying that 2nd day of a back to back... |

It was just the pressure. If they win one more game at Boston, they will more comfortable.
Against Knicks, Kobe made 20 out of 20 FTs. I was surprised that he also missed few FTs last nite.
If we can contain Lebron, the game is ours. |
