Here we go again. The Laker team that is uninspired came out today, unlike Tuesday night, in which the mighty Laker team showed up. Lakers came out of the gate big trailing by 18. I did not catch the 1st 3 qtrs of the game as I was at the CIF Volleyball game of Cerritos. But I got some updates and heard Lakers were down by 7 in the 3rd quarter. So came home and watched it when game was over. It was not a good thing. Lakers trailed wire to wire the whole game but did not seem as worse as Game 4 though.
Kobe Bryant had another 30 pt game with 32 pts but did not shoot the ball well. Pau Gasol played consistent yet again with 14 pts 11reb. Andrew Bynum showed flash in game 5, but did not score in game 6. The only other productive Laker was Jordan farmar, in which he had 13 pts off bench, 11 in 1st 10 minutes of action. Lakers just could not stop Aaron Brooks. They can not defend the pick and roll game.
Lakers are like a roller coaster. Now they are on the down side and getting criticized in the media but all they have to do is win Game 7 and everything will be reversed. Lakers have responded well to poor performances and we'll see if Lakers can do it Sunday. I believe Lakers can. This will be the second ever Game 7 at STAPLES Center and we rarely see Lakers play in a Game 7 (e.g. Boston, who has hosted 3 game sevens in the last two years and will have one on Sunday too.) Hey Laker fans, this is what playoff basketball is about right. Lakers got some challengers.
Lakers will win Game 7. They just cannot lose or else the NBA will be a mess. No one will watch then.
