Two words: Kobe Bryant. Our perception was that Shaq did not do enough (I know, his line was great). But in the 4th quarter his body language did not say "You will not win!". We kept thinking that if he would just sprint down the court every so often, the message would be: "I will not let you win!"
I agree that L.A. should clobber the Nets but I would not be surprised to see them come to Staples and steal game #1 (like Philly did last year) Yesterday's game had to take a lot out of L.A.
