Below is a running diary of the Lakers’ matchup against the Indiana Pacers, with comments drawn from Mike Trudell’s @LakersReporter Twitter account, to ensure you’re covered from start to finish.
First Quarter
Kobe missed his first 6 shots before using an up-and-under fake to get a layup. Indy leads 17-12 early, w/Paul George also off (1 for 6).
The bench was even colder than the starters, going 0 for 5, the team 2 for 20 overall with Indy leading 28-12 after George hit a late 3.
