NBA Finals Game 3 Live Blog: Derek Fisher Comes Up Big

  • Derek Fisher just keeps hitting big shots, and Mark Jackson keeps talking about how he "puts the time in" to practicing these shots. Excuse me sir, but I believe he just hit a 15-foot floater while jumping into Ray Allen. I don't think he practiced that one.
  • As Kobe Bryant motions to move the ball back to his side of the court, Lamar Odom dribbles for a while, goes the other way, then forces Ron Artest to shoot a terrible contested corner three. Offense!
  • As great as Rajon Rondo is on defense, he does gamble a lot and can be exploited in a one-on-one situation. Derek Fisher knows it and keeps going right at him.
  • Oh hey, Paul Pierce. Nice of you to do something.
  • The Lakers are running a pick and roll, with Kobe Bryant as the roll man. It only took three possessions for the Celtics to switch it.
  • Ray Allen just missed another wide open look. I have no idea what's wrong with him.
  • Kevin Garnett hits another shot, and gets mildly excited about it. I gotta say, I really was expecting more out of KG there. Something like this. (Via Jose3030 of course).
