Lakers 102, Celtics 108


Celtics go up 2-0. Whoop-ti-doo!!! It's NOT unexpected that the Celtics would win both of their first two home games in this series; that has been their M.O. throughout the playoffs. Way more interesting though was how the Lakers finished out the game: Down 24 with less than 8 minutes to go in the fourth quarter, the Lakers got to within 2 with 22 seconds to go. They made up 22 points in less than 8 minutes in the back half of the fourth quarter on the road.

Boston squeezed by with the win, it’s all good though. LA will take it back in game three as they head back to Staples Center. Kudos to Powe. He had the game of his career last night. Only right it was done during the night they aired the special on his life during halftime. See ya’ll Tuesday.
