Didn't see this coming. Thought the Celtics would roll in Game 3..

Odom stepping up on the road was even more surprising. Good stuff

A MASSIVE win for the Lakers, this was such a vital game and the Lakers came out big and although there were scares we always did enough to stay in front and take the win, Fisher was huge in the 4th, so happy we got the win

LA wasted Bynum's great performance in Game 2. Boston wasted KG's great performance in Game 3.

Paul Pierce has had a pretty quite Finals so far. Can't imagine he'll be this bad for the whole series.

Ray Allen is on FIRE...oh wait, wrong box score

Lol

FFS now I see what you meant earlier Tiger in regards to ESPN's replays. They're not even giving the "due to time constraints" message. Just randomly jumping ahead with the game. So frustrating. Freaking ads.

He couldn't even get it going when Luke Walton was guarding him in the 1st quarter. And we know how badly Pierce abused him in 08.

Pierce was getting shots where Walton didn't even attempt to contest yet he kept clunking them. As Andrew said, Pierce is getting good looks, just not knocking them down. Which is why I think we'll see him produce sooner rather than later.

When asked how Fisher was able to be so successful drawing fouls while being screened, Rivers replied: "What? Besides flopping? He doesn't do a lot extra.

"He plays hard. He's been in the game long enough to understand. I thought he got away with a lot last night. I thought there was a lot of holding going on and a lot of flopping going on and he finally showed that last one."

Nice. Obviously when 290 pound Big Baby gets knocked down by Jordan Farmar, thats just hard contact..

Puh-lease - you cannot defend Derek Fisher.

Kudos to him, he knows how to get the calls. But he's a massive flopper, for arguably the strongest guard (certainly strongest point guard), he sells it like nobody else.
