Kobe Bryant scored 26 points, Pau Gasol added 17 points and 13 rebounds, and the Los Angeles Lakers emphatically extended the NBA finals to a decisive seventh game with a 89-67 victory over the Boston Celtics in Game 6 on Tuesday night.
Ron Artest added 15 points for the Lakers, who stared down elimination by jumping to a 22 point lead during a dazzling first half. With remarkable ease, the defending champions stretched the finals to the limit for the first time since 2005.
A champion will be crowned Thursday night at Staples Center.

I am very excited about Thursday night. My wife loves college basketball more because of the whole March Maddness thing. She couldn’t get into the NBA playoffs until game 5 the other night.
Thursday Night will have that same March Maddness feel. It all comes down to one game on one night to decide. I love it.
Lakers win by 3.5
