I say all that and yet, gun to my head, I'd still probably pick LA to win tonight

did you notice how the lakers didn't play defense that game? boston shot 56% for the game. you can't win that way. and in the 3rd quarter, where he supposedly took the lakers out of sync? they scored their highest quarterly output from that particular game(26, didn't go over 21 any other quarter).
