The Los Angeles Lakers won so gracefully tonight!!! I’m beyond ecstatic about this win by the Lakers! The San Antonio Spurs had a good run but it’s L.A.’s time to win some RINGS! The Lakers took 4 games out the series (4-1). The Lakers won by 7 (100-92) and became the WESTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS! I’m so proud of the Lakers. They’ve come so far in these series and show no signs of slowing down. MVP Kobe Bryant totaled 39 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists. Pau Gasol racked 12 points, 19 rebounds and 5 assists. Lamar Odom put up 13 points and 8 rebounds. Kobe vented after last night’s victory and said:
“I think it is a tremendous accomplishment,” Bryant said. “I think the West is extremely tough. We’re all extremely excited and proud about it. Now, it’s time to go on and see if we can finish it off.”
I’m pretty sure that ya’ll will Kobe! The Spurs did well despite the loss to the CHAMPIONS. Tim Duncan scored 19 points and 15 rebounds. Manu Ginobili totaled 9 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. Tony Parker put up 23 points and 4 assists. Duncan responded to the loss postively and said:
“Just got to gear it up again to go to next year,” Duncan said. “Love what we had this year. We just weren’t good enough through stretches.”
The Lakers will play the winning team of the Boston Celtics Vs. Detroit Pistons series. Check out video reactions below.
