Can't believe after a dominant win against the Mavs, the Lakers would come back down to earth like this. Kobe Bryant, under the weather had a few positives and a few negatives. The Black Mamba fought through sickness leading the Lakers with a double-double of 40 points and 10 rebounds, but committed 10 turnovers , a yin-yang performance by the Lakers' all-time leading scorer. Turnovers, missed free throws, and poor bench play had a lot to do with this game, but the story of this against Indiana was the failure to protect the rim and defending the pick n roll which lead to George Hill's game winning layup to rally the Pacers 79-77. Dwight Howard, good field goal shooting, horrible free throws as he tallied 17 points and Pau Gasol, the other way around what Howard did scored 10 points behind perfect free throw shooting, but awful field goal shooting.
Final Score: vs. Indiana 79-77 [L]
