Lakers Post-Mortem by D. Young

It was men vs boys. The Celtics played so... SO much harder than the Lakers. Plain and simple. Those Celtics have what is commonly referred to as "old man strength." The Lakers showed NO heart (except maybe Kobe, not that that mattered) -- Greatest Kobe lockdown performance of all time -- both team and individual performance... Pierce is such a complete player. He's the definition of superstar. His offensive game was dynamic. His defense was amazing. Kobe justdon't struggle like that. I'm happy for KG, PP, RA, Doc, and Ainge.
They done did it!

But, guess what -- This ridiculously embarassing series loss the Lakers endured is just the kind of motivation a young, heartless Lakers team needs! Now they have something to prove, and I expect them to play with much more fire in future playoffs.

AND, If Andrew Bynum is 100% healthy next year, I am 100% certain that we will see the Lakers in the FInals again... and the Lakers will win it all. Lakers/Celts rematch 2009?

Bynum is God.
