Painful video: Kobe Bryant Dunks on Okafor

(Opposing Views) The Los Angeles Lakers beat the New Orleans Hornets 106-90 on Tuesday night. Pau Gasol had his first good game of the series with 16 points and eight rebounds, and Andrew Bynum pitched in 18 and 10. The L.A. bench mob did their part too, outscoring the New Orleans bench 29-14.
