| Tonight the Spurs look to extend their lead to 30 over the Lakers. This time, however, they will have to do it on the Lakers' home court. Duncan and Shaq have been magnificent for both teams, but so far the edge has gone to San Antonio. However, the real story line that awaits us tonight in Los Angeles is whether or not Kobe Bryant will actually throw a pass! |

| Walton: John Stockton is one of the true marvels, not just in basketball , or in America, but in the history of Western Civilization! Tom Tolbert: Wow, that's a pretty strong statement. I guess I don't have a good handle on world history. Walton: Well Tom, that's because you didn't go to UCLA. |

| Why is Scottie Pippen taking a charge? Taking a charge is for people with no game! |
Bill Walton |
| Why would the Pacers ever doubleteam Larry Johnson? He wants to be doubleteamed so he can pass. Why is Indiana doubleteaming a man who only scores eight points a game? |
