The NBA is a funny game. A 20-point first half lead is meaningless, especially since most teams can erase a large deficit in a relatively short amount of time. Usually it's a little tougher to come back from a 20-point lead with 5 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. Not if you're Kobe Bryant and the LA Lakers. Last night's 89-85 win was huge because the Spurs were in control for much of the game. I wonder if San Antonio will get another opportunity to take home court advantage in this series.
