Dang it! LAkers lose another big lead but came up big down the stretch, blanking the Celtics in the last two minutes with an 8-0 run to end the game, 97-94. Kobe proved clutch as he gave the LAkers a one point lead, then Bynum closed the scoring with a nice offensive move inside over KG. Celtics had a chance to tie but the LAkers D stepped up. Scary game but it was at home, so, Los Angeles pulled it off.
Loved the time out when Kobe had the ball with seconds left so that the team could set up Bynum for what turned out to be LA's final offensive play. Kobe had this incredulous look on his face as Mike Brown called the timeout. It was nice to see them give it to Bynum and see how he'd do under such pressure when the game's on the line. Big guy delivered and dominated when he got the ball. But still, sooo crazy how LA can't hold onto big leads. Credit Boston for never giving up and making it a game, though.
