The Lakers have the Spurs on their heels, but I don't think anyone is counting San Antonio out just yet, despite the 3-1 deficit. The Spurs have so many weapons and trust each other so much, it is surprising that they have blown big leads and lost 3 out of 4 games in this series. Phil Jackson has done a fantastic job with his player rotation, keeping everyone fresh and matched up effectively against any Spurs lineup.
Bruce Bowen is doing his usual defensive drill on Kobe, but just how good does your defense have to be to stop the best player in the league at the peak of his career? I simply don't think it's possible to shut Bryant down. Not at this point in his career. And now that he has two big contributors in Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol, and has brought back his wingman Derek Fisher, it is clear that stopping this Lakers team may be more difficult than it's been since 2002.
