NBA Finals Game 1

Lakers Vs. Celtics

Celtics 98 - Lakers 88
Here is my breakdown



KG - Too many jumpshots. How can he not take it to the rack every single time? Game would have been a blowout if he had.

Pierce - Faked injury to get momentum. He is still the most clutch player on the team.

Allen - Played a good all around game. Didn't get down on missed shots, instead dished and rebounded.

Rondo - Somewhat timid but still found shots

Kendrick Perkins - No show

Sam Cassell - Made clutch shots, took bad shots. Also schooled D. Fish on many occasions.

PJ Brown - The guy everyone loves to hate because he cleans up the boards and makes plays that no one else wants to.

Posey - Pretty much inaffective until he missed a three to allow KG to have a monstrous put back slam.



Kobe - Smooth when he made his shots, but missed alot. He was missing his usual smirk which cost the Lakers the game

Pau Gasol - Average performance. He is not able to take games over as a game changer

Lamar Odom - Didn't rely on the jumpshot, instead took it to the rack, there is no reason he can't do that every time. Take notes KG.

D. Fish - Got schooled by Cassell, but came back aggressive and tried to do what Kobe couldn't

Vlad Rad - Hit a couple of 3's then dissappeared

Sasha Vujachic - Too many dumb fouls, not enough made shots

Ronny Turiaf - Bad hair day. Why did he play more than Luke Walton?



Bottom Line - Defense wins championships, unless Kobe gets his smirk back.
