Aloha,
Well it got a little tense in the 3rd but overall the Lakers played the way they need to for most of the game. Frank made the proper line up adjustments and the Lakers played Laker basketball. I wasn’t worried in the 3rd because of the Rockets hot streak. They went 9 for 11 from 3 and while they are a good shooting team, 81% from 3 is not sustainable. My worry was the Lakers began to stumble on offense. I would have been happy trading 2’s for 3’s because again 81% is not sustainable. And in the 4th the Rockets came back to earth. And the Lakers began to impose their will inside. This is what they need every game. While Lebron and AD dominated it was Morris, Kuz and Rondo, who were the difference in the game. If they continue to step up the Lakers will win it all.
