We witnessed Larry Brown's philosophy of "playing the game the right way" cost the Pistons a 2-0 series advantage. LA handed Detroit the game when then in-bounded the ball to Shaq on that last posseession in regulation. They should have fouled Shaq to make him shoot 2 free throws instead of letting Kobe even touch the ball, but Brown doesn't coach that way.
Great game. Luke Walton saved the Lakers' ass. Kobe was heroic, but the rookie was the key.
Looking forward to Thursday.
