Game Six Tonight

The outcome of tonight's game, which starts at 6 p.m. Pacific, will depend on the play of three people: Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, and...Jordan Farmar (my boy from UCLA). During game 5, it was mostly Farmar who kept the Lake Show in the game when everyone else got stumped by the Celts defense. With Rajon Rondo injured and Sam Cassell being 40ish years old, there is not a player on the Celtics roster that will be able to handle Farmar's quickness. It's the reason why Phil Jackson favored Farmar over Fisher in the 4th and 2nd Quarters. Look for him to be a major contributor if the Lakers steal Game 6. As far as Lamar Odom, hopefully he'll have a big game 6. After the man who's lost both a child and a grandmother this year, it'd be great to see him have some happiness in his life.
