NBA FINALS: Lakers Vs Celtics Game 3 Result



The Lakers won the 3rd game of the NBA Finals after the 2 game losing streak at the Celtics hometown. MVP, Kobe Bryant scored 36 points and Sasha Vujacic help with an amazing 20 points to get a 6 point advantage against the Boston Celtics at 87-81.

The 3rd game of the series was held at the Staples Center at the hometown of the Lakers at Los Angeles. Both team have a great record on their home court. Both don't like losing in their territories.

Kobe is definitely on the zone at his hometown and the Celtics should do their best to contain him. He is the league MVP for no reason. That's why its a poor judgment for Doc Rivers to let Allen go against Kobe on the last minute of the game.

I am seeing a 7 game series for this Finals. It will be more exciting and the fans will love watching their team and their favorite players battle against the title with their life long rivalry of the Celtics and the Lakers basketball since Bird's and Johnson's time.

NBA Finals Schedules:

Game 4 will be played on June 12 at the Staples Center, Los Angeles, California.

Game 5 June 15 at Los Angeles, California

Game 6 June 17 LA at Boston

Game 7 June 19 LA at Boston.

A Boy Died Due to Secondary Drowning

A 10-year-old South Carolina boy died last weekend after he swallowed water from a swimming pool. The unusual thing is that the boy died several hours after he swallowed the water.

According to FoxNews, police said that Johnny Jackson, from Goose Creek had been swimming Sunday in a pool from his apartment complex and swallowed some water. His mother saw that Johnny inhaled a lot of water but she dismissed it seeing that the child is alright.

After the incident, Johnny went to take a nap in his room because he was feeling sleepy. When someone went to check on him, the boy had water coming out of his nose and was breathing with difficulty.

His mother called 911 and the boy was sent to Trident Hospital. Doctors tried to save him but Johnny died. Cause of death: asphyxiation.

Berkeley County Coroner Glenn Rhoad said that Johnny had his lungs filled with water, causing him to asphyxiate. Doctors said that the fourth-grader at Westview Elementary School drowned.

According to FoxNews, not all cases of drowning happen immediately. There is secondary drowning as well, which can happen as much as 72 hours later, without any signs.

There was no way that his family could have known what was happening.
