Another way to look at it is that both teams are only in the game because the other team's best scorer isn't playing well.
but the others are playing REALLY well despite their best player not playing up to par. lakers' big men getting to the line like crazy is the reason the lakers are in this game or else they are blown out. bynum and gasol are keeping them in right now and controlling the game for the lakers.
The Celtics have to be one of the worst end-of-quarter teams I've ever seen. The 1-on-1 isos absolutely have to stop.
pau gasol is just too good. too damn good. dude is MAD consistent. how the hell does he only have 1 really bad game all postseason and people are saying he's soft? he's clearly the lakers' most consistent player.
