Dodgers lose 3-0 to the Reds. Thus, in 18 innings, the Dodgers have scored 2 runs against the worst team in the NL. Dodger pitching has been pretty solid but the offense is pretty weak.

Meanwhile, the Lakers got run out of Minnesota thus returning to Staples 1-1 in the series. All season, the problem has been a loss of defensive intensity and that showed last night. Also, the Lakers are vulnerable to the speedy guard and the power forward and it really showed last night as Kevin Garnett and Troy Houston torched the Lakers. The Timberwolves press seemed to confuse the Lakers as well. Jackson has a big job ahead to get the team ready for game 3. Now, they are the ones in a must win situation.
