Lakers End Cavaliers Home Win Streak



Everyone thought it was going to be Lebron James vs Kobe Bryant, but that really did not happen as Lebron James struggled and Kobe Bryant was battling the flu. Lamar Odom stepped up for the Los Angeles Lakers and tossed in 28 points and grabbed 17 rebounds to give the Lakers a 101-91 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Odom is in the last year of his contract so playing well the rest of the season could get him a nice contract offer from the Lakers and other teams as well.

For Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers they seen their 23 game home winning streak end and now the Lakers have the advantage over the Cavaliers and Celtics especially if they are tied at the end of the season. This means if the Lakers meet either team in the finals they have the home court advantage.
