Ray Allen's 22 not enough in loss to Lakers
Ray Allen - G - Boston Celtics
Feb. 9, 2012 - 11:15 PM ET

Ray Allen had a nice duel with Kobe Bryant on Thursday, but his 22 points, six rebounds and two 3-pointers on 9-of-20 shooting weren't enough as the Lakers beat the Celtics in overtime.

That stopped a five-game winning streak for the Celtics, while Allen's putback attempt at the final buzzer was blocked by Pau Gasol. Bryant finished with 27 points, five boards and four assists on 11-of-24 shooting in the win.
