Yes, I have a tight little smile on my face this morning. The Lakers showed they can throw the switch on and win four straight (helped, of course, by Derek Fisher and a timely shot).
But there are still eight wins left to go before a new championship trophy can be hoisted. I'm pleased that the Lakers closed the Spurs out in six games for rest purposes. And I have no preference whether the Lakers play the Kings or the Timberwolves (although I think they can steal a game at the Target Center).
Also, I don't want to see the Lakers come back from another 2-0. The West is too good a conference.
Shaq didn't score as much as I like to see him do so,   but he provided great board work, blocked shots and caused some altering of shots. Other than TD, no Spur starter stepped it up.

Derek Fisher's last second Heroics broke their back. As much as they tried, the Spurs couldn't pull it off. I saw a stat on NBA Fastbreak that mention the Lakers' Starters averaged 44.2 minutes. I see why they want to close the door on the Spurs as fast as they can.
