Nerdy stuff like sports, software engineering and other things that really matters

The Lakers said no in the first quarter. They really put a stop the Celtics offense by denying them the open looks, they had some help from the Boston players though. For instance Rondo had a perfect look, sure the pass was beautiful and if Pierce had made the 3 points it would have been great. But he didn’t, so basically he turned an easy two. Bryant looked as sharp as ever nailing a tripple of threes, he is up there with MJ in my eyes. Not saying he’s better, but he is up there. The Celtics are a resilient team and has come from behind before, and they got there offence going a little in the late part of the quarter, but the Lakers has them where they want them. Taking the lead with 17 points, after an impressing show of offensive firepower and variety. One thing is sure, we’re in for a good one.

By the way, ouch! The foul on Fisher where he crashed into the camera man, that got to have hurt, and I’ve seen fighters in the ring go down for a lot less, but he’s a fighter and got up and still plays some good basketball

What’s to do for the second quarter, the Celtics must stop turning the ball over to limit the transition points and play better defence. They’re good on Kobe, but seem to be forgetting everyone else. 22 points in the first is ok, but letting the Lakers score 39 is just no ok. For the Lakers, just continue doing what they’re doing already, and stay out of foul trouble.
