Why LA lost

[fishbones]

You hit the nail on the head, Professor. The Europeans are 1 dimensional players who can only spot up and shoot. The Celtics defense is quick and allowed them no room to get their shots up consistently. Odom could have made some noise inside with his size, but he seemed to be playing softer than I remember him in the few games I saw him play this year. Perkins was in foul trouble within the first few minutes and the Lakers had no one to take it to the basket agressively.

definitely! and inconsistent. Lamar Odom can look like a top 20 player in the league on some nights, then totally $hit's the bed the next. I wonder if he'll even be there next year.
