2010 NBA Finals – Lakers Highlights vs Boston Celtics Game 1 [Kobe 30 Points]

All content is the property of the NBA and its respective entities. Lakers defense shines in Finals-opening win over Celtics. The talk coming into the game circled around how the Celtics defense may rival that of the 2008 championship team. On Thursday, the Lakers showed their rendition of defense. They took charges. They caused deflections. They altered and rejected shots inside. In short, they frustrated Boston. That defense coupled with a late third quarter spurt helped the defending champs deliver an emphatic blow to the Celtics, winning 102-89 in Game 1 of the NBA Finals at Staples Center. “I think people forget how good we are defensively,” Lakers forward Lamar Odom said. No one is forgetting how dominating Phil Jackson’s teams are after winning Game 1 in a series. His haven’t lost, a perfect 47-0. And a reminder of the goal was apparent in the Lakers’ locker room after the game. Scribbled in black on a white board directly across Kobe Bryant’s locker was the phrase “3 Mo.” “We’re counting down,” said Odom, whose team is now 9-0 at home in the postseason with Game 2 on Sunday. Leading the way for the Lakers in the series opener was Bryant, who had a game-high 30 points, seven rebounds and six assists. He has now scored 30-plus in 10 of his last 11 contests. Pau Gasol had a terrific all-around game with 23 points, 14 rebounds and three blocks. Ron Artest chipped in 15. The dominating fashion in which the Lakers, who led by as many as 20 points, took the series opener …

Lakers’ defense shines in Finals-opening win over Celtics! The talk coming into the game circled around how the Celtics’ defense may rival that of the 2008 championship team. On Thursday, the Lakers showed their rendition of defense. They took charges. They caused deflections. They altered and rejected shots inside. In short, they frustrated Boston. That defense coupled with a late third-quarter spurt helped the defending champs deliver an emphatic blow to the Celtics, winning 102-89 in Game 1 of the NBA Finals at Staples Center. “I think people forget how good we are defensively,” Lakers forward Lamar Odom said. No one is forgetting how dominating Phil Jackson’s teams are after winning Game 1 in a series as his teams are a perfect 47-0. But a reminder of the Lakers’ ultimate goal was apparent in the locker room after the game. Scribbled in black on a white board directly across Kobe Bryant’s locker was the phrase “3 Mo.” “We’re counting down,” said Odom, whose team is now 9-0 at home in the postseason with Game 2 on Sunday.

2010 NBA Finals – Lakers vs Boston Celtics Highlights Game 3 [Fisher Clutch Shots, Kobe 29 Points]

All content is the property of the NBA and its respective entities. Fisher’s offensive heroics the difference for Lakers. If it wasn’t already apparent, this is not the same series as the 2008 Finals. Mostly because of the Los Angeles Lakers. In their 91-84 Game 3 victory, the Lakers, both as individuals and collectively, fought through a litany of situations that would have left them reeling and beaten. And they were tested from the very beginning. Behind what was probably the best crowd at TD Garden in a non-series clinching win, the Celtics stormed out to a 12-5 lead. First there were six-straight points from Kevin Garnett (25 points), including two alley oops, and then six more from Rajon Rondo. “We seemed to gather some strength and change the course of the game right there,” Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. By halftime, the lead was 12 and the Celtics, who have not performed well playing from behind in second halves, were left to do just that. “We kept our poise after that quick start and didn’t get rattled,” Kobe Bryant (29 points on 29 shots) said. “We didn’t doubt our ability to win here, even though we hadn’t done it in the playoffs,” Derek Fisher said. “We understand that in order to be the best, you have to win wherever, whenever.” “It’s very frustrating, very frustrating when you don’t play well offensively,” Garnett said. “But defensively, you know, you sort of buckle down and get the stops and things that you want and you get back into the game only to come …

2010 NBA Finals – Los Angeles Lakers Highlights vs Boston Celtics Game 6 [Force 7, Kobe 26 Points]

All content is the property of the NBA and its respective entities. Lakers clobber Celtics, setting up decisive Game 7 Rajon Rondo was cut on the chin compliments of a Ron Artest elbow. Kendrick Perkins had to be helped off the court thanks to a Pau Gasol and Kobe Bryant sandwich. Paul Pierce wound up on his back time and time again in large part because of the Lakers’ swarming defense. It was that type of game for the Celtics. In what was a must-win to keep their hopes of a repeat alive, the Lakers answered emphatically, blowing out the Celtics, 89-67, in Game 6 of the NBA Finals Tuesday at Staples Center. Tied 3-3, the season now culminates in a winner-take-all Game 7 Thursday. “It’s a really high-tension situation,” said Lakers coach Phil Jackson, who will be coaching in his first Game 7 in the NBA Finals. No sweat for Bryant, who holds a 3-1 record in Game 7’s: “I know what’s at stake, but I’m not tripping.” Added Paul Pierce on how he feels heading into the game: “Very confident. “We know we have to come out a lot harder in Game 7. I promise you when I stand here on Thursday, we won’t be talking about energy.” If history has any say in the outcome, the Celtics have the edge. They are 4-0 all-time in Game 7’s against the Lakers, who hope to become just the seventh team in NBA history to come from behind to win a championship after facing a 3-2 deficit. While the Lakers were given new life, the Celtics see Tuesday’s game as yet another missed opportunity. “You could …
