Lakers Fall to Celtics

The Lakers began a winning streak against East teams since the 1st win over the Charlotte Hornets, now they're on a 2 game losing streak against them. Kobe Bryant was the top performer this game with 22 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists, but the Lakers couldn't get past their arch-nemesis of the East as the Celtics' complete team game helped them to beat the Lakers 96-113, giving the Lakers their 2nd straight loss against the Eastern Conference teams since they lost Wednesday night to Washington. Jordan Hill added 13 points on a perfect 6-6 shooting and Jeremy Lin bounced back with 14 points on 5-8 after a dropping a goose in points and field goals last game. Nick Young continues to provide scoring off the bench with 16 points and Ronnie Price was the 2nd leading scorer off the bench with 11 points.

Final Score: @ Boston 96-113 [L]
