My Lakers did what they do...they went on the road and closed out a tough Hornets team in game 6 to win the first round series 4 games to 2.
Kobe Bryant led the way with 24 points. Andrew Bynum added 18 points and 12 rebounds. Pau Gasol had 16 points and 8 rebounds. Lamar Odom continued his strong play as the reigning NBA 6th Man with 14 points and 8 rebounds. In fact, LA outrebounded New Orleans 43-30.
My Lakers host Dallas in the next round. The Mavericks closed out pesky Portland 4 games to 2 last night as well.
