These closeout games ain't looking so easy, huh?
There will be a Game 7 after the Lakers drop -- and we do mean drop -- Thursday's Game 6 in Denver. Ugliness all around, save a great night from Kobe Bryant, who went for 31 despite battling a nasty stomach bug leaving him dehydrated enough to require two halftime IV's.
As for everything else, here was the agenda for tonight's show...
A huge night for Denver's shooters, who were due for a breakout.
A wretched night for Pau Gasol, who is now due for a breakout. One field goal, one dime, three rebounds.
How did Andrew Bynum respond after the controversial Game 5?
Will the Lakers win Game 7? We get into what has to change, the odds those things will happen, and what Metta World Peace brings to the table for Saturday.
