The Los Angeles Lakers took Game 5 last night against the Boston Celtics. The Lakers won by 5 and are now headed back to Boston (103-98). The series are in Boston’s favor (3-2). Kobe Bryant scored 25 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. Pau Gasol totaled 19 points, 13 rebounds and 6 assists. Lamar Odom put up 20 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists. The Lakers need to win 3 consecutive games in order to become champs, while on the other hand the Celtics only need one. Kobe Bryant spoke to reporters after Game 5 and he said:

“In training camp if you told us, ‘We’ll give you two games that you have to win to win a world championship,’ we would have taken it in a heartbeat,” Bryant said. “This is a great opportunity for us.”

Game 6 airs Tuesday (June 17) @ 9PM on ABC. Video reactions below.

SIZZLES I do got love for Tiger Woods, I’ve been piled with stuff from the finals and also other posts as well but more sports stuff is coming soon…

RAJONSWIFEY - Kobe committed adultery with a white woman but supposedly told the cop who caught him or whatever that Shaq used to do the same thing. My opinion on that: Kobe made a mistake…we’re all human, Kobe isn’t the only one that has committed adultery or the only one that so called “snitched” on somebody else when they got caught so. No, I’m not saying it was right, but his personal life has nothing to with his game…and that’s what ppl main hatred generate from but HE GOT GAME! AND PPL BE CALLING HIM WEAK AND COCKY… MICHAEL JORDAN also got into it with a white woman while he was in the NBA. but ya’ll can email me about that.
