What was the most important aspect of last night's game?
Our sports editor, Kevin Modesti, runs an interesting blog on another part of our site, which looks at the world of sports from an editor's perspective. Last night, he asked readers how they would've covered last night's game if they were the sportswriter?
Was Kobe Bryant going 9 for 26 from the field the most important angle? Or was it Paul Pierce's Willis Reed imitation? Or, was it the fact the Lakers are now trailing for the first time this postseason?

Three angles stand out for me. First,I thought KB24 looked overly confident at the introduction before the game. Which might have caused him to be impatient when he was on the offensive end. KB24 will execute much better game when he has the eye of the black mamba instead. Second, Lakers as a team put their guards down when Paul Pierce got injured, cause them to lose focus of their game execution. Lastly, the Lakers will have a hard time winning the title, if they cannot clear their own board.
