Spurs 71 - Lakers 101: It took a comeback in the first game for the Lakers to win in game 1, that wasn’t the case in game 2 though. The Lakers played as a team and really rocked the Spurs in this one, at the beginning of the season I never would’ve thought that I would’ve said that.

Kobe Bryant scored 22 points and Lamar Odom had 20 points and 12 rebound as the Lakers took over in the second quarter and never looked back.

The Lakers are now up 2-0 in the series which isn’t good news for the Spurs. Only 14 of 222 teams that have gone down 2-0 in a playoff series have come back to win the series. That includes the Spurs who just did it last series with the Hornets but this should be a hard matchup because they will have to win at the Staples center. The Lakers are on fire right now, they’ve won 13 straight games there.
