Game 5: Dead Cat Bounce

Laker fans, don't get too excited. Watching game 5 and seeing another early lead squandered I finally came to realize that The C's are in fact better than Showtime. I was wrong, dead wrong. I expected the Lakers to ease threw this series and be done in 5 or 6 games riding the wave of an unstoppable Kobe. Wrong, Boston's defense is simply too good & are making Kobe work so very hard for everything he gets. Game 6 is very intriguing. Look for the desperate Lakers to come out strong again, even on the road only for the C's defense to win out in the long run. Even with 1 game in their pocket I expect Boston to play with sense of urgency, I don't think KG would have it any other way. Having said that I hope I am wrong again, there is nothing better in sports than a game 7, especially a Game 7 between LA & Boston.
