i really wanted you to say something about l.a. getting "powe"ned... but then they ended up just getting beat, not so much with the pwnage. sigh. also, i was totally chased home by a giant group of dudes in paul pierce jerseys on scooters. scary.

What a heart-stopping finish, as the Lakers showed their first life of the series. What was that, a 31-9 run? People are going to be groggy tomorrow morning. Incidentally, the close finish is good for the C's, since you don't want to go into L.A. feeling complacent.

How about some defense from Boston? Or, an offense now that LA is in it again?

After that lack of defense on Powe's drive ... will Kobe demand a trade again?

Powe is the most likeable guy on a team of all-around likeable players. I am overjoyed to see him having the game of his life, and I'm sure it's the first of many. Objectively, I don't think you could say that anyone would have a beef with any of these current Celtics - they'll all so cool. Too bad we really can't say this about the current crop of Sox/Patriots/Bruins.

Time for KG to take over.

Surprising first half. Let's hope it lasts.

We'd have to tow Perk's car, then give him a puppy, to see about that. Let's work on that.

What what just happened to Gasol a mix of WWF and basketball, or what? And, much as I like Perk, does his facial expression ever change?

LEON! THIS IS HIS SHINING TIME!

VinF

This is why we kept calling for Leon in the earlier series. Now how about ... Eddie House for some offense.

Celtics need: (a) more cohesive offense (b) to make their free throws! (c) KG to take it to the hoop Van Gundy and Jackson need to (a) shut up about not calling Kobe for a foul - foul means foul

Agreed about Gasol. Every time I see him, I think he needs a visit from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. Or at least a bath.

Once again the Celtics' offense looks shaky. C'mon Celts!

No, Kobe was with five or six security guards, or wingmen, it was hard to tell.

Was Kobe doing the I love my wife stride with Vanessa like A-Rod did last summer when the story about his tryst with a stripper broke?
