Man, well that was a fun game to watch, but very very tense. Anytime your team is basically on the edge, every game is gonna be tense to watch. Luckily the Lakers came out to a huge opening lead and never really looked back. The Spurs got within 6 points once I think, but the Lakers then pushed it back up to a big lead and led by double digits for most of the game. Honestly, as bad as things looked the other night when LA lost Game 2 to fall behind 0-2 for the first time since Phil Jackson took over as coach 4 years ago, the Lakers are now actually in a better position after Game 3 in this series then they were after Game 3 in the last series. LA is still down 1-2 in this series, but in the last series after Game 3 they did not have the momentum because they had just lost two straight. Now at least they'll head into Game 4 on the heels of a huge win. LA can NOT give an inch here though, they must come out in Game 4 with the same sense of urgency that they had tonight. One of the Spurs' main weaknesses is that they are a mentally fragile team. Their confidence can be easily shaken, and if LA can win Game 4 as well and even the series, then the doubts from years past will have to begin to creep into the Spurs' collective heads. Then all it will take is a superior effort by the Lakers in Game 5 back in San Antonio and the Lakers could take the lead in the series. If LA wins the next two, then the Spurs will fold in Game 6 back here in LA. But I'm getting WAY ahead of myself. LA is still one loss in Game 4 away from being completely on the ropes here, they MUST have a win in that next game. Good job tonight though. Gotta say, I'm no longer tired 
Final score:
Lakers - 110
Spurs - 95
