At long last, the Lakers got some three-pointers to fall. Just as important to their long-term prospects are the reappearance of Classic Pau Gasol and a turn toward physical, even nasty, play.
In a game that was tightly contested and intense throughout, the Lakers came from behind to beat the Clippers and even the L.A. city series.
