Boston Celtics' Paul Pierce (34) and Los Angeles Lakers' Pau Gasol, from Spain, battle for a rebound in the second half of Game 2 of the NBA basketball finals Sunday, June 8, 2008, in Boston. The Celtics won 108-102 to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.

Kobe Bryant couldn't take it anymore, so he took it out on his teammates. With Game 2, and perhaps Los Angeles' season slipping away, the league's MVP looked around the huddle and used some harsh words to fire up the Lakers. They responded, dug deep and made a remarkable comeback that fell short. Now they have to make a bigger one.
