Boston Celtics

Lakers, 31-15 (2:04, 1st quarter)

The Celtics are doing their part to imitate the first half of Game 4. They’ve already dug themselves a 16-point deficit.

Three-pointers have been the story so far. The Lakers are 5 of 7, while the Celtics have made just two. Kobe Bryant has 15 points already, equaling the production of the entire Celtics team.

Leon Powe is out of the game at Center, but his replacement, P.J. Brown, hasn’t fared much better. The pair has combined for 2 points.
