but it keeps him from getting into Michael Jordan status. MJ never lost a finals series, I know times are different, but Kobe will have lost two to the Celtics. That's not good for him
After Game 1, the Celtics have made adjustment after adjustment and the Lakers aren't keeping up.</p>
My answer for the first question is.... Yes, the Lakers come back to win. But even if they don't, I wouldn't say Kobe's legacy takes a hit. He will still go down as the second best player ever (behind MJ of course).
To answer the second question.... In the words of JV, "17 no!" Doc Rivers couldn't carry Phil Jackson's jock strap!

And that bench has been playing pretty damn well most of the time. Doc has done a good job of letting the bench players play out their hot hands, and he has really done a good job with his substitutions. Phil doesn't have that luxury in this series. He's going to get what he gets from Kobe, but if Odom and Gasol are sucking then he's got nowhere to turn.
It depends on whether or not Mr. Kardashian or some of the other guys show up. Artest has played awful. Gasol has played like a European (translation = ******).
Honestly the Celtics have the better team but the Laker bench plays much better at home and it is not like the Celtics have blown them off the court. Hell they shot nearly 60% last night and still only won by 6 at home.
Lakers in 7.
P.S.: Jeff Van Gundy is a craptastic announcer. I still can't get over him saying that Rondo did not shove Artest to earn that T.
