This is the type of game Kobe would win at the FT line, impose his will.

Schroeder is getting to the line. Lord help us.

Just need to keep this game in single digits entering the 4th. it's a game of runs and the refs arent being helpful. Defensively the Lakers look scared to actually be aggressive, as refs are whistling them for fouls, and its leaving the TPups open from 3 all night long, due to overcommitting of protecting the paint.

The refs bad calls really killing our momentum.

Those two blocks of Vandy are really big. Thing gone bad after each call.

The outcome of this game will be determined by our defense. Same as all playoffs games ever played.

We need to capitalize in the paint. KAT is in foul trouble. Pound it inside.

Good defense. It’s against a hobbling Wolves roster with KAT in foul trouble so it’s not much to be proud about.

I can’t stand watching Anderson’s slomo play. He’s like a bigger Luke Walton with a shot.

Exactly.

And in general, LBJ and AD should live at the line until this is over. Kobe style. No real alpha on this team.

It doesn't matter if they hit or not. This team is **** starting with the coach. To bad all the good things things they had they throwed in the last 5 or 6 games.
