On to the Finals we go. Lakers won the Western Conferece championship tonight up in Denver, Game 6 as LA closed the Nuggets out. Lakers finally showed the killer instinct in back to back games and won 119-92, the largest margin in the series. Lakers played like champions right from the start, determined to end this west finals series. The task was completed.
I missed this game 6 actually. My golf round took me past the start and on the way home, listened to the game on radio, AM 570 til halftime and that was where the Lakers separted from the Nuggets. Then, went to a eagle court of honor so missed the second half but got updates on the score.
Kobe Bryant played tremendous again, going over 30 points once again, 35 pts 6 reb 10 ast. He got everyone involved and then became closer in 4th qtr, once again like how Kobe always plays. Lamar odom had 20 pts 8 reb off the bench as he played strong and aggressive for the second straight game. Pau Gasol had 20 pts 12 reb, his 9th straight double double. He is a double double machine. Trevor Ariza started game strong with 10 pts in 1st qtr and finished with 17 pts. Everyone got involved too.
So now, NBA Finals game 1 is this Thursday night. Lakers will face either Orlando or Cleveland. I hope for Lakers-Orlando matchup as LA will have home court advantage.
We can celebrate for tonight but then the final run begins. It has been a long foughtout 12 wins but 4 more to go for the destination.
Game 1 Thursday, 6:00PM on ABC.
Also I can concentrate on finishing my projects as Sunday, I can fully focus, no game 7.
