The Boston Celtics had hoped that they could take their streak to 20 straight games, but Kobe Bryant and Paul Gasol had very different ideas on how they wanted to do things. Bryant tossed in 27 points and Pau Gasol hit baskets down the stretch when the Lakers needed him to and came away with a 92-83 victory. The Laker players probably had this date circled for a long time after losing the Championship series to the Celtics in June. For most people this was a game that would tell a lot about the Lakers and it did. they would not let the Celtics push them around and they came to play.
For the Celtics it was their third loss of the season and they will just regroup and move on. They knew they would not win every game the rest of the season they just want to play well night in and night out. They have done that so far this season and as long as they keep that up they should have no problem at all being the team to beat once again.
