Lakers: We Get It In














Kobe Bryant scored 25 of his 27 points in the second half as his Lakers overcame a 20-point third-quarter deficit to escape with a Game 1 victory in L.A. on Wednesday night. Bryant hit a free throw to give the Lakers their first lead with 2:42 left in the fourth quarter, and then hit the go-ahead bucket -- a pull-up jumper in the lane -- with 23.9 seconds to give L.A. a two-point lead. The Lakers won 89-85.
Tim Duncan carried the load for San Antonio, finishing with a game-high 30 points and game-high 18 rebounds, but his Spurs managed just 13 points in the final quarter and let their large lead slip away. Pau Gasol was one of four Lakers in double figures, scoring 18 on 9-of-16 shooting, and Sasha Vujacic put in the final two points of the game: a pair of free throws in the final seconds to ice the victory.
The Spurs will look to even the series when Game 2 rolls around, Friday at 9 ET on TNT.

The Lakers look really good in Game 1. Fucking Tim Duncan did is thang, Ginobili is well Manu, and Tony Parker aint do too hot (YES!!) Let's keep it up Lakers! 3 More wins to go! We need more production from LaMar Odom, Pau Gasol, and Fisher gotta deliver like he did in the West Conference Finals a few years back (Anybody remember that shot he hit?! I did!) We are not playing, the Lakers gon get it in for real! Hate or Love It! Kobe is the MVP for a reason.
LAKERS Vs. CELTICS FINALS REMATCH??? We'll see stay tuned.
