I hope we don't get complacent.
If the Lakers are complacent in a game 7 of NBA Finals @ home vs Boston, then they deserve to lose.

Had it been Perk being suspended over a bogus tech and having to sit out game 7, then we'd be way more upset about that.

Also, Perkins should have already missed a game due to suspension from technicals as should have Sheed, but for some reason something you do to earn the first 6 technicals won't earn you the 7th because that would be unfare.

Perhaps not coincidentally, he missed 21 straight 3-pointers. (The Lakers did a great job of defense on some of them, but not necessarily on all 21.)
