Wow! What a crazy game! Lakers come out of that game with a win nonetheless but it was definitely an ugly one! Horrible calls down the stretch by the refs against the Lakers in my opinion but thats what you'd expect playing in a hostile arena in Denver. Some stats on the game, Kobe ended up with 20 points shooting 7-23 from the field which isn't great but he's been taking tons of shots all year so that is nothing new. Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol had 22 and 13 points respectively. Bynum had the best game in my opinion he went 10-13 from the field.
Back to those bad calls I was talking about. Lots of call seemed to go against the Lakers tonight. Whether it was Kobe's push out of bounds by Afflalo at the end or Bynum not getting the foul call with seconds left there were many blown calls in my opinion. But you know the refs in the NBA will always make those shady calls sometimes so you got to overcome those and the Lakers did.
Two big keys that the Lakers didn't do so well was turnovers and getting back on defense. There was way too many turnovers from the Lakers then I like to see. Their getting back on defense was absolutely horrible. Way to many times they gave up easy layups or easy buckets down at the other end which was hard to watch but hopefully they'll tighten that up for their game tomorrow in Utah. Will post more tomorrow after the Lakers vs Jazz game. Peace Laker fans!
