Game 3 first half observation

LA is aggressively driving the basketball. Well, Kobe is driving and getting foul calls. Seemingly the referees have been influenced by Phil's game 2 post game rant.

We've witnessed KG turn into a defensive Rasheed Wallace. He's settling for jump shots this half when he could dominate the post; especially with Odom having 3 personal fouls.

Vujacic is 4/5, including 1/1 from the 3-point line, for 12 first half points.

Pressure is mounting as can be seen by 12 missed foul shots.

Translation:

Kobe is getting every call and Vujacic is on fire. KG needs to post up and Paul has to take over, while setting Ray up for 3's. Unless the refs take it away and call fouls on Pierce, the C's should win.

LA by 15 if Pierce is in foul trouble the entire 2nd; or, as D2 calls, C's by 3!

translation: Pierce and the Celtics acting job at home in Boston isn't working out in L.A. They know an actor when they see one. Go Lakers!

"ACTING" ... C'mon now "E," you're wiser than that. Did you WATCH the game or just read the boxscore _ Jeff
