This is how the Lakers are supposed to play. Tonight was a perfect example. After the embarrasing performance Sunday, many writers and critics started saying how Lakers lack killer extinct, blah blah blah. But it will be different in tomorrow's headlines. All this season, when Lakers lost a game they were supposed to win, Lakers always responded well. Same as tonight.
118-78. Final score. 40 pts. Blowout. Largest defeat in Rockets history. That's about it. Lakers outplayed them in 1st qtr, scoring 35 pts. It was a blowout then. Shannon Brown's new nick name is Downtown Shannon Brown. He nailed some shots today. So did Kobe, Pau and Andrew Bynum who finally showed some great potential with 14 pts 6 reb. Lamar Odom, u hav to give him credit. Playing with a bad back, he still scored 10 pts and grabbed + reb. Nice job overall. Everyone got to play and all 12 scpred. The STAPLES Center crowd chanted "we want mbenga" in the 4th quarter and they got him. Powell had 10 pts off bench.
Lakers killed the Rockets and now the Rockets are on the down side. How fun this series is! 1st lakers get blown out, not actually, and now houston. Lakers will close this thing out Thrusday night. I say LAkers win by 10 or more points. This Rockets team were lucky in game 4, relying on shooting and their shots fell. It did not fall tonight.
