Edited on Tue Jun-09-09 10:48 PM by Kajsa

but it's awfully close.

Howard just mugged Kobe,
and Kobe missed the free throw!
Damn! Kobe is hitting himself.

The Lakers are getting beat up and it shows.

14. The Lakers beat themselves

The free throw line made the difference. Kobe was uncharacteristically cold from the line, and Gasol didn't get a double-double because of poor rebounding. And give Rashard his due - he was hot from the outside, as is his wont.

And truly, considering that the Tragic had an enormous shooting percentage, they are lucky to have escaped with a narrow victory. Normally when a team shoots 75% or thereabouts, they win by 20+ points.

My original prediction was Lakers in 6. For now, I stand by that. Next game should be realllllly interesting.

15. 63% and no blowout?

No worries here :-)

Kobe will be on fire Thursday. Good game though and the Magic did what they had to.
