02/03: Rivalry Renewed - LAKERS @ Celtics 2nd Half Open Thread and Discussion


The 2nd half of the latest chapter of one of the NBA's most storied rivalries. As usual, leave a comment below and share your thoughts on the game.

Q4

LAL 107 BOS 113

Go ice cold in three-point game all game long, but heat up when it's too little too late. Great logic. Yet another loss on the road. Stay tuned for the full recap. 

Q3

LAL 74 BOS 82

Well, I was about to post up a picture of a brick wall because the Lakers continued to miss shots. But, they did get something going late in this quarter. That should've been the game plan from the very beginning of the third quarter. The Lakers couldn't hang with the Celtics 3-point shooting. Why not take it to them in the paint? But, they did miss some shots inside. D'Lo figured out that his three-point game is not going, so he's resorting to posting up, which worked. Ingram continues to play solid tonight. Sweet Lou is starting to get going. All of a sudden, the Lakers have brought themselves back late after a lifeless start this quarter. They still have an uphill battle to climb.
