The Western Conference Finals Game 5 is tonight as the Los Angeles Lakers take on the San Antonio Spurs. The Lakers won games 1 and 2 with Kobe Bryant giving MVP performances in both games. Game 3 was a different story with Manu Ginobilli giving his version of a MVP performance. He had 22 first half points which gave the Spurs a double digit lead at half. The Lakers came close in the second half but could not overcome the deficit. The Los Angeles Lakers gave San Antonio a rare loss at home in game 4. The Lakers now lead 3-1 and can eliminate the Spurs with a win tonight. If the Lakers want to win game 5. I really think they need to switch defenders or double team Kobe Bryant. Tonights game is a 9pm start.
