Los Angeles, June. 15. - As purple-and-gold streamers rained down, Lamar Odom shook his head in approval, Derek Fisher caressed the game ball against his chest and Kobe Bryant clapped his hands before striding from the floor."I love L.A." blared through the speakers and "Not In Our House!" flashed on the scoreboard.The P.A. announcer cried, "This is not over yet!"
The Los Angeles Lakers aren't done playing. The NBA Finals are headed East.Bryant scored 25 points, including a decisive dunk in the final minute -- and Odom added 20 as the Lakers, playing with pride on their star-studded stage, prevented the Celtics from winning a 17th title with a 103-98 win in Game 5 on Sunday night to close to 3-2 in this restored rivalry.
