Not sure what will happen, but according to the LA Times they were demoralized yesterday and Jackson gave them the day off.  Hardly encouraging if you are a Laker fan.  Remember the attitude Kevin Millar had when the Sox were down 0-3 to the Yankees?  The looseness, the shots before the games, etc..  That seems to be the attitude you need to succeed.  E.g. who cares what just happened, we are a good team, and we are just gonna go out and play (actually similar to what Pierce said the C's attitude was in the 2nd half on Thursday).  Perhaps the Lakers can get to that point, but right now they appear to still be dwelling on the past.

If the Celtics come out fast, punch the lakers on the nose and knock them down in the 1st, I don't see them getting up again and putting any fight in.



If the lakers come out fast (or close) against the Celtics, the Celtics could be in for a dog fight. 

Yeah, thinking the same thing.

Start of the game will dictate what Lakers team we'll see for the rest of the game.
