LAKERS LATEST

LOS ANGELES LAKERS 93-81 PHILADELPHIA 76ERS

May 25, 2010 - Phoenix, ARIZONA, UNITED STATES - epa02173251 Los Angeles Lakers' Kobe Bryant (R) and Lamar Odom react after a play against the Phoenix Suns during the second half of game four of the NBA Western Conference basketball finals at the US Airways Center in Phoenix, Arizona, USA, 25 May 2010. The western conference champions will face the eastern conference champions in the NBA finals. The Suns defeated the Lakers 115-106 to even the series 2-2.

Philly honored their high school legend this week as Kobe Bryant took his Lake Show to the streets of Philadelphia for a 93-81 win. NFL Eagles quarterback Michael Vick was in attendance at the Wells Fargo Center for a great NBA game. Kobe started his time in Pennsylvania well being honored with a banner, however it ended badly as he hit a season low 9 points and sprained his pinkie finger. Still this was OK as most of the Lakers points came by the hands of Lamar Odom. The star hit a season high, 28 points on 11-for-18 from the field. Lamar won the game and also made his bid to become an All-Star for the first time in his career that much better. L.O. made his case clear, stating, "I feel like I'm the only guy who doesn't get mentioned as an All-Star, but gets mentioned as one of the league's best players. But it's something I would at least like to go for. Why not?" Gasol also had 19 points and 13 rebounds and it seems like there hasn't been a game this season were either Odom or Gasol haven't had a double, double. New Laker boys Barnes and Blake where instrumental in the fourth quarter, combining to hit the first 25 of that period as the Lakers ensured the 76ers moved to their beat. TIM DAVID HARVEY.
