Lakers win Game 2


2-0. Lakers win in overtime, Kobe Bryant scored 29 points and 8 assist. LA take advantage late in the game and overtime by making clutch free throws, 15 in a row, good defense. As expected the Magic got a good game from there big three of Dwight Howard, 17 points, 16 rebounds and 4 assist. Hedo Turkuglo 22-6-4, and Rashard Lewis 34-11-7.
Kobe got some help from fellow allstar Pau Gasol with 24 points 10 rebounds and another grueling night guarding Dwight Howard because Laker center Andrew Bynum mostly on the bench with foul trouble and played only 17 minutes. Veterans Lamar Odom and Derrick Fisher gave Lakers another good night with 19 points and 12 points respectively.
Game 3 will be played in Amway Arena homecourt of the Orlando Magic.

1 hour before game time...


Waiting for game 1 of the NBA finals is over. Kobe and the Lakers are ready to battle with Superman and the Orlando Magic in Staples Center.

This game is very important for the LA, Phil Jackson coached teams always wins the series if they take game one.

Jameer Nelson, the Magic's Allstar point guard will be playing too. This will be his first game since the injury.

Laker reserve and one of the fan favorites DJ Mbenga will surely get some burn defending Dwight Howard.

NBA Finals Preview: Lakers in Five


US President Barack Obama picks the Lakers to win in 6 games, some 60% of NBA fans pick the lakers to win it all, mostly game 6 or game 7. But I say the Lakeshow in 5 for the following reasons.

1. Kobe Bryant
-Kobe will score on any Magic defender one on one, Courtney Lee, Mickael Pietrus and Hedo Turkoglu you name it. If doubled, Kobe will punish them playing 4 on 3. Best closer in the NBA.
-He is on a mission to win atleast a title without Shaq.
-To avenge the last years humiliating defeat to Boston.

2. Pau Gasol
-Put Gasol on the block, give him the ball and make strong cuts, if they don't double easy scores for Pau. Double team him, layups and open 3's by Kobe, Fish and Trevor.

3. Phil Jackson
-The Best Coach of all time. Do i need to explain more?

4. Experience
-The Lakers been there before, losing to the Celtics. They are here to play.

5. The Machine
- Just Kidding.
