The Los Angeles Lakers have never been known as a team that takes offensive charges. They are trying to change that. Last series, Phil Jackson called his big men "thin-chested" as a way of goading them into standing strong and taking a hit, and the team has been offering financial incentive -- $50 per charge.

"To motivate us in a way to take charges and getting away with it," explained Sasha Vujacic.

And Vujacic says that the way the Celtics players play, the Lakers believe they could be in line to make some extra cash.

"Their whole team is kind of a charging possibility taking team. We just got to be smart," Vujacic said. "They are a very smart team that can go from block to a charge, so we've been working a lot on charges and how to take them and stuff, so we'll see.
