(AP) -- BOSTON (AP) - The Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers are headed to a pivotal Game 5 of the NBA finals in the latest capter of basketball's most storied rivalry.

Have to love it, right?

Not if you're Kobe Bryant.

The Lakers star says Saturday he's "miserable," and some of that must be because of the Celtics. They guarded him well in the
fourth quarter of their 96-89 victory that evened the series at two games apiece.

Game 5 is Sunday, and the Lakers expect to have center Andrew Bynum back after he played only 12 minutes on Thursday because of a sore right knee.

Lakers coach Phil Jackson thought Bryant looked tired in that game, but last year's finals MVP says he's "well rested" and
ready for the Celtics and their tough defense.

You can watch Game 5 on KTVO. The game starts at 7:00.
