Lakers Sweep Season Series against Celtics

As thought before the game Lakers and Celtics give NBA fans an entertaining game to watch while Lakers were able to stop Boston's winning streak again. Both teams top 3 stars had a good game. Garnett-Pierce-Allen scored total 59 points while Odom-Gasol-Bryant answered with 70 points. Kobe wasn't making all of his shots but he scored three 3-pointers in the last quarter and the most important was when there was left only a minute and a half he put his team ahead with 1 points. Eddie House missed an unbalanced 3-pointer with one second left and this made the game go on to overtime tied at 101-101. Celtics started overtime without KG as he was fouled out in the 4th quarter. At overtime Odom took the spotline as he helped his team to win it by one point 110 to 109.

So in a potential NBA Finals between Lakers and Celtics the first 2 games will be played in California. I think it would be a great chance for revenge and Kobe will use this chance superbly with his crew.
