Man, just think what it's going to be like when Pierce gets hie leg amputated tomorrow, then comes out for game 2 on a prosthesis.

Doc Rivers > Pop ??

I'm seeing a better game plan against Kobe.

Maybe if Spurs had homecourt.....dare to dream.

[ShoogarBear]

KG was just shooting some shots. No surprises there.

[Budkin]

the Lakers! Losers.

I'm seeing a better game plan against Kobe.

I'm seeing more active players and yes pop sucks.

Kobe, 4 points in the 4th quarter...if that isn't a choke job then I don't know what is.

It's all part of Kobe's elaborate plan.

[balli]

Most recent one I can think of was Detroit 2004, did he ever lose the first game with the Bulls?

Jazz in 98

[DazedAndConfused]

Kobe better hand back that MVP trophy if he plays another game like this.

[pooh]

Lakers missed too many shots when it counted. That is what did them in. Now the legend of Paul Pierce begins.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Kobe's is fine. He typically has one horrible game each series, good that he gets it out of his system now.

He had all decent games in the Spurs series. Celtics are playing team D against Kobe.

The Celtics did what I thought they might do, protect their home court. But LA will keep coming at you, they always do. We'll see if the Celtics can keep up in Game 2.

What should be worrisome is that Kobe hasn't played well against the Celtics in all 3 games they've played.

Yes, 1993 ECF against the Knicks. They went up 2-0. Bulls won the next 4.

I love the way you rationalize.

[Hank the Tank]

They're 1-0, not because of Garnett

leads his team with 24 pts and 13 rebounds....so idk about that.

granted everyone knows he isnt a good 4th qtr performer....yet he done pretty well tonight. that is what PP and ray are for anyway.

[Allanon]

Got damn Celtics got that one. Oh well. Lakers missed wide open shots, they gotta knock those down. No weak stuff in the paint either, man up guys.

Pop ed up in game 1 against Kobe, for sure.

A few rarely open ones too.

[ShoogarBear]

He had to have lost a first game in 94 and 95 with the Bulls.

Well I'm sure that will comfort the Laker fans, since Kobe is their MJ...

[dbreiden83080]

Wow.. KG's a badass, calling for the ball when the game is over!

[Bob Lanier]

at Pierce pulling a Dwyane Wade.

[DazedAndConfused]

The Lakers played a pretty horrid 4th quarter, which is unusual for them since they typically close games out well.

I'm not going to worry about this series after Game 1. So many adjustments will be made, I trust Phil.

[DazedAndConfused]

LMAO at Spur fan getting all excited. It's Game 1, all LA needs to do is split. I know they are going to come out and put up a better performance than that in Game 2.

They did against your team.

[baseline bum]

Celtics just beat a team they were supposed to beat.

[trueD]

He had all decent games in the Spurs series. Celtics are playing team D against Kobe.

Nice concept.

Defense wins ___________________.

It's surprising that Kobe wasn't able to break away from his man. Seems Kobe himself isn't exempt from FINALS jitters.

GO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, Shoogarbear did you hear that Phil is 41-0 when he wins his first game of the round?
