Two-Faced Lakers (Wizbang Sports)

After game one, the Lakers looked as if they had the championship swagger back. You know, the confident strut, the unbeatable confidence, the us against the world mentality which they wore and dared teams to try and take. Finally, a series the Lakers could use

the old dusty broom from ages ago and sweep away the Minnesota Timberwolves. But something happened to the Lakers on the way to the broom closet. I saw an unmotivated, disinterested group give away game 2. They must have been imposters. This isn't the same Laker team that played the best basketball of the playoffs in game one. So much for getting the swagger back.

The Lakers have used two identities throughout the season. They switch back and forth without giving any notice. Which Laker team will show up for game 3 at the Staples Center on Tuesday night?
