Kobe Bryant and the Lakers at least have to be glad that they have Game 7 of their Western Conference semifinal series back home at Staples Center.

The Lakers have lost two consecutive games at Houston's Toyota Center after winning the first three games between the teams there, including two in the regular season. In those last two losses, Bryant has been rendered inefficient by Houston's Shane Battier-led defense.

Bryant shot 7-for-17 from the field, scoring just 15 points in the Lakers' Game 4 loss in Houston. Bryant then shot 11-for-27 in a 32-point game in Game 6, another loss.


"We did not start the game off the way that we should have, obviously, and we did not execute right," Bryant said after Game 6.
