Still got to get 3 wins. The home team has only swept all 3 games at home once. LA just has to get one in Boston. Hopefully Odom can play more than 20 minutes in a game.

They're going to be a hole either way, Boston is winning at least 2. Said it all year, steal one in LA and it's over.
Ah the Lakers will steal one in Boston. I have no worries about that. This one is going 7 folks
Just got to see bits and pieces last night. 2 ridiculous fouls on Kobe. This should be a great series and will go 7, but still nothing like the "Bird-Magic" days. Bring on college football.
Which 2 fouls would those be? And those days are gone, this is still a great rivalry and we have many in the NBA these days that are just as good as any years ago.Quote:

The Celtics are terrible at home. Losing record during the season. Lakers take 2 in Boston unless Celtics shoot lights out. The Lakers are a better team this year, the Celtics were in 08. It will still be a great series, and I'm looking forward to watching tonights game.
Celts in 6
The flop by Allen for Foul #3 and then the dive by Rondo into the front row for Foul #4. Both were terrible calls.Quote:

I agree its been a very oddly called series so far. And I am not saying its swayed one way or the other. Ticky tack calls on both sides and then letting rough stuff really go. I didnt get to watch much of the game and didn't see foul #4, but #3 was a pure joke. If Kobe would have faked the contact like Allen did, and both went down, Allen would have gotten the foul.
