Meet Mr. Vujacic: A Well Oiled Machine

Bostonians, this is our version of Leon Powe, SASHA “the machine” VUJACIC. Sure, he gave himself the nickname but after a spectacular Game 3 performance, I think it’s time to make it stick. 7-10 field goals, 3-5 from range, 20 points and 4 rebounds in 28 minutes, not bad for a bench player. Without Sasha, the Lakers lose tonight. No 87-81 Game 3 victory. No Championship hopes. No dynasty. NO DOUBT. As for the rest of the Lakers, we all knew Kobe was gonna get his. Pau Gasol was still struggling but at least pulled down 12 boards. As for Lamar, still worried about him; hasn’t showed up yet to the finals and the Lakers definitely need him. Not a convincing win, but for now, we’ll take it any way we can get it, a win is a win.
