There's nothing Phil can do but to hope for a Celtic choke. Chances of that happening are slim to none. The only we can reasonably hope for is for Kobe to get hot and shoot us back into the game, but I don't see that happening. Personally, I think we're done. But whatever, it's not over until it's over I guess. We need to play a flawless two quarters to even think about winning this thing
Here's the formula for the Lakers to come back: 1) Defense 2) Defense 3) Defense Get stops Score half the time we have the ball.
Michael Wilbon has lost his mind with that hypothetical line up. Did he just say the Machine at PF? WOW...
Another way to look at this is the Lakers need to win the next two quarters by at least 30-20 points. It's not out of the question, but the Lakers of the first half won't do it.

Hey guys, guess who's coming back? It's the return of ASSSWHIP, and he's meaner than ever. He's going to be on a rampage!

Radmanovic has some value. Some team will value a big with the ability to hit threes, just take Brian Cook for example. I think Radman is movable, but we won't be getting much in return for him at all. As for Luke, he has ZERO value. The only way we get rid of him is to package him with Kobe or Bynum in a trade
Gasol sighting... Fatty with the layup. Space cadet for three? I'm shocked at this point. But Rondo answers with the And 1.

I wasn't sure if we would win tonight... But I never expected us to get blown out. Give credit to the Celtics. They're obviously the better team, and they obviously want it more.
