The Streak Ends At 10

The Lakers winning ends at ten games at the hands of the Trailblazers and I'm still in complete shock right now. The Lakers played great and shot the ball over 50% but Portland just made the plays down the stretch. The Lakers had a 1 point lead at the end of three quarters but was outscored 33 to 24 in the final quarter with a final score of 119-111. The Lakers are now 41-18 they are still on top of the west but only 1/2 game separates them and San Antonio and they ave 1 1/2 games above Phoenix. Wow, you lose a game in the west and everything changes.
Kobe had 33, Lamar and Luke each had 17 while Pau added 15 points, but this wasn't enough as Portland outplayed the Lakers down the stretch. It's only one game and I know we will bounce back and learn from this loss.

Next up, Dallas on Sunday on national TV. I look for the Lakers to come out hungry on Sunday and take care of business.
