Steve Blake (chicken pox) is expected to re-join the Lakers later this week, but the veteran point guard is unlikely to play in Game 2 on Wednesday.
Starting point guard Derek Fisher played a whopping 39 minutes in Game 1, and Kobe said after the game that the team missed Blake's tenacity. The Lakers will hope that Blake can re-join them in either Game 3 or Game 4 of the series.
