Quagmire

Nervous times for the Lakers...
Ok so they won the first home game...just.
They have to defend home court for another two games and it would appear that Kobe must score 30+ points each game at a good percentage if they are to win.
You bet there will be a game where two of the big three will get hot and really challenge the Lakers.
I am loving the finals so far, i honestly thought the Celts would struggle but KG is a defensive menace and they are rebounding and working harder as a team than LA. Perhaps its the under-dog tag that inspires teams to greatness (re pistons 04)
Two games for Celts to try and steal one, close at home. LA must defend home court but still will be facing an uphill battle to win in Boston.
I still like the Lakers at this stage, just because between the two, Lakers have more room to improve and with Rondo hurting, his one asset, his speed, will be gone.
