First time I'm seeing the Lakeshow in person!

 

As if the Pru doesn't already have enough advantages over the Meadowlands, I love being able to host Sunday afternoon games that we could not have at the IC because of the Jets and Giants home games.

Yeah not to mention the fact Izod was a dump and the prudential center is actually really nice

Gasol sucks again, missed way too many easy shots. Lopez isn't Dikembe Mutombo, so those hooks and short jumpers have to fall. One game can be excused, but he has been shooting like crap for a while, maybe just one decent game shooting in the last 5-6. Shot 4-13 against the Clippers, 2-8 against Houston, 5-13 against his brother in Memphis, 5-15 before that against the Pacers, and an ugly 6-19 today.

Never came back to reflect on the game.

 

It honestly felt like an away game with the boos Brook was getting at the stripe early on and the excitement every time Bryant knocked down a FT. Attendance wasn't as high as it was for the Sunday afternoon game against Miami early in the season, but there were a lot more Laker fans this time than Heat fans in that game.

We were hovering between eight-point deficits and a one-possession game. We finally broke through with the lead change in the fourth quarter, but it didn't last. Harris gave Farmar as good a look as you could ask for to take a two-point lead, but he missed the shot, and a few miscues from there opened up our deficit. Our pressure on Kobe usually ended up in an easy feed to a teammate. Bryant was dominant throughout, which isn't always the case against Jersey since we have often forced him to give up the ball. MVP chants came alive late in the fourth quarter.

 

We had three or four wide open shot attempts from long range that didn't go down, and as for the defensive end, neglecting to box out and do the dirty work at times came back to bite us. Certainly an exciting game, though.
