Kobe couldn’t hit the game winning jumper at the buzzer during the last game, so the Lakers will have to do a better job of containing Dirk Nowitzky during Game 2. The Lakers will need Lamar Odom to step up to the plate and defend Dirk, if they have any chance of winning. If the Mavericks bench plays another solid game, watch out.
Who will win Game 2 at Staples Center in Los Angeles?
**UPDATE**
FINAL: DAL 93 | LAL 81
