Pau has something to prove. He certainly came out rough and tough in the Olympics and we'll need him to absorb the hard fouls and keep producing

Losing Jordan was big for us, but no excuses here. Ariza and LO must have their shots working. Vlad needs to stay focused on D and keep up the Sniper accuracy

Rondo is not the same player we saw in the finals. His playmaking and creativity have improved and he's doing a bit of everything to help his team. Fish has been playing big minutes lately and our PG defense this year has been a weak spot. I look for Sasha to see good minutes to matchup with Rondo and for Derek to give a veteran's performance

Go Lakers!! Make us proud and put some fear in them for the finals

With a 0-0 thread record in 09' ....
sporting no Photoshop skills but a nice case of the flu....

Danny Darko!

I figured if no one else will... what the hell.



"That guys awful... awful good! Bwahahahahaha!"

What a crappy game thread for sure we will lose now

lol j/k. For real it is pretty nice and I love that idiotic pic of KG looking like a moron. The bench pic was creative too.

BUT I was really hoping the GT creator would put some lame pics of that injury faker Paul Pierce. Listen to the genius explaining himself again.

“No, not really,” Pierce said of accusations that he was acting a bit. “Not something I planned. I’d never want to leave my teammates. I’ve never been a player who faked an injury. Why would I want to come off the court during the NBA Finals game?

“Only people in LA would think that was something I planned. That is Hollywood!”

In case you guys didn't know, Pierce faked another knee injury last week prior to the game in Atlanta. Yet he played in the game showing no effect, before the game he said the knee really hurt.

Oh here is more from Pierce. As a reminder here is what he said during the summer

http://thelakersnation.com/blog/2008/07 ... st-player/

I don’t think Kobe is the best player. I’m the best player. There’s a line that separates having confidence and being conceited. I don’t cross that line but I have a lot of confidence in myself.

With that said Boston comes rolling into town

Final Score

Celtics - 148
Lakers - 78

Pierce - 82 pts
Kobe - 7 pts as Pierce holds him to 3 for 40 shooting

After the game here is Ray Allen: "Another win in LA, this is getting too easy."



KG - "Anything is possible, there is nothing else to say man."



Paul Pierce - "HAHAHAHA I told Ya'll I TOLD Y'ALL! I AM THE BEST PLAYER IN THE NBA. All you need to know, I'm Better Than Kobe."



If that doesn't motivate LA I don't know what will.

Put all you know aside from the Celtics and the Lakers, forget the championship ring, forget the starting records, forget Kobe's MVP, forget it all. None of it matters tomorrow, both teams will come to battle and the best team will come out on top. No excuses either way!

BTW: Great Game Thread!

Can't wait for the start of the game. I see us winning. Anyone know the line on the game?

Hahah nice bulletin board material Minhee.

You know there's another possibility. Maybe Paul did tweak his knee and was crying real tears because he's a real honest-to-god puss.

just for you:

Time to put wheelchair in his place..

We'll take this one.

Happy Holidays to my NBA pals on the West Coast. Here's to a good game. May the best team win. All teams remain healthy.

Here's to a good game and a Laker victory. Kobe dropping 40+ I feel it.

revenge....lakers go!

Let's go get this 1 fellas!!! Key line up we need to see is Bynum, Gasol, Odom, Ariza, & Bryant for stetches I think all that length would bother them. Go take it to this FAKER..........................

Also nice GT DD!! Good job on short notice

nice game thread. here's to a great game win or lose. i just want to see if we can hang with them. i know we need to improve,but to stay with them,will give our guys some confidence imo.

Guys, don't be surprised if Paul pulls the wheelchair stunt again, he's gotta make the Christmas party so he can party with his lady!!!!




Also, I hope Drew and Pau are ready for Scalabrine, he's put on a bit more size since the last time we saw him.

BTW, great game thread DD, lets hope we pull this one out, lets snap their win streak and get Phil win #1000.
