Lakers win game 1 versus Spurs
What a game! The Lakers rallied from a 20 point deficit to clinch a win against the mighty spurs 89-85. Kobe was just awesome during the fourth quarter. It was another Jordanesque performance. Wait, let reiterate that. It was another Kobe performance. Kobe scored only 2 points in the first quarter and added 4 more at the ebd of the half. But he erupted in the 4th quarter to finish with 27 points, 6 rebounds, and 9 assists. It was enough to lift the Lakers against the spurs. Of course, he got a lot of help from his teammates. Pau Gasol had 19 points and seven rebounds, Sasha Vujacic and Vladimir Radmanovic had 10 points a piece. Tim Duncan had monster performance with a game high 30 points, 18 rebounds, and 4 blocked shots. Tony Parker had 18 points and 10 rebounds. Tim was just a monster in the middle, ripping Ronnie Turiaf and Pau Gasol’s defense apart for an easy bucket. Too bad they went cold in the fourth quarter. I’m sure this is a pain staking lose for the spurs which will seek vengeance against the Lakers in Friday night’s(Saturday For Philippine viewers) game 2 at staples center. Over all, it was a team effort by the Lakers to clinch the win. What a rally by the Lakers. What a game!
