The Lakers snapped out of the doldrums of March to play inspired ball in a win at Dallas. The Lakers had an early 21 point lead before having to fight off a frantic Dallas finish for a 102-100 victory. Dallas had the last shot, but Dirk Nowitski's three pointer was off line. The Lakers were led by Kobe Bryant with 29 points and 7 assists, and many other players chipped in as well. Vladimir Radmanovic scored 21 points and was aggressive on the boards with 10 rebounds. Lamar Odom had a double 17, with 17 points and 17 rebounds and Rony Turiaf was a maniac again blocking 4 shots.
