Lakers are at their best when they play like this. they ran the offense through the post and had good ball movement. enough of the stupid kobe pick and rolls where kobe just takes tough shots time and time again. I was glad that kobe and phil stopped the pick and roll after it failed to work 3 or so possessions in a row in the 4th. kobe only had 13 shots today and the lakers had great overall production from everyone. their defense, rebounding and energy were great too. now they have to put forth the same effort, defense and execution for game 6 in denver.
I hope LBJ gets some help from his teammates. he can't do it all himself. he's put up the numbers in every game, but one man can only do so much. plus the magic have a lot of good match ups that favor them. if they make their 3s like they've been doing, it'll be tough for Cleveland to pull this out. but you never know, you live by the 3 you die by the 3, we'll see if Cleveland is destined for the finals. I still want to see the Lakers vs Cavs in the finals, but first and foremost LAKERS!!
