In the playoff rematch, Kobe Bryant sat out of the opener with a sore knee because of recent surgery.

But that didn't stop the Lakers and Lamar Odom from stepping up and erasing a 19-point first quarter deficit!

Odom scored 34 points, and Andrew Bynum added 18 in his first career start and offseason acquisition Maurice Evans netted 17 points for the Lakers, who dropped last year's first-round playoff series against the Suns.

Lamar Odom shot 12-of-24 from the floor and grabbed 13 rebounds and six assists.
