Beat LA! Beat LA! Beat LA! 

• The first half was all about the point guards.  Rondo set the table, got hurt, and Nate took over.
• Master motivator Doc Rivers: Said all along that Nate would help us win a game in the playoffs.  Never doubt him again.
• Paul Pierce's line: 31 points, 13 rebounds, 5 dimes, 2 steals
• Nice, somewhat quiet, 20 points for Ray.  (well, those back to back 3's were pretty loud)
• Defense did it.  Don't lose sight of that.  Defense is why they won this game.
• Doc: "This starting five has never lost a playoff series."  Yup.
• Dwight showed up, Vince was great... when they were down 20, nobody else stepped up.
• So, ...we can stop talking about the Bruins right?
• Sheed and Nate helped us win this series.  Somewhere Danny Ainge is telling everyone around him "I told you so!"
• Nobody's talking about the refs today.  thankgoodnessforthat
• A week of rest is going to do this team a lot of good.  Sheed, Rondo, etc. could use the recovery time.
