Boston almost cruised to an easy victory in Game 2 of the NBA Finals. Leading by 24 nearly halfway through the fourth quarter, they managed to fend off a furious LA rally, holding them off for a 108-102 win.
The Lakers were down 95-71 with just under 8 minutes. But a Kobe-led 31-9 run made it 104-102 with 38.4 seconds remaining. The Celtics hit their freethrows to ice the game. They leave the comforts of home with a 2-0 series lead. LA will host the next three games at the Staples Center.
Game 3 is on Wednesday morning (Manila time).
The lines:
Straight up: Boston
Against the spread: Boston (+1.0)
Over/under: Over (191.5)
