The Boston Celtics wins at home against the Los Angeles Lakers again in Game 2 by 6 (108-102). The Celtics definitely got some luck of the leprechauns and 4-leaf clovers last night. The Celtics are leading the series (2-0)! I expected the Celtics to win at The Garden but never did I think two in a row! The Lakers need to step their game up. I think it’ll definitely be better in Game 3. Paul Pierce totaled 28 points, 8 assists and 4 rebounds. Kevin Garnett put up 17 points and 14 rebounds. Rajon Rondo contributed 16 assists and 6 rebounds. Pierce responded about the win last night:
“We’re happy because we won, but we definitely learned a lesson,” Pierce said.
Kobe Bryant scored 30 points, 8 assists and 4 rebounds. Pau Gasol had 17 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists. Lamar Odom totaled 10 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists. After the game reporters told Kobe that the whistles today was one-sided, Kobe responded:
“I didn’t notice,” Bryant said, cracking a smile.
