Go back to the Game 1 game thread and you'll see that I did just that. I thought he was very good in Game 1, and I posted as such. I'm not trying to play favorites.

OK: It's all good. GO LAKERS!!!!!!!!

To be fair, every laker player catches hell on the laker board when they dont play good. Kobe gets it, LO gets it, Luke, Fish, Gasol, and Bynum.

That was a little too close to our comfort and that Rashard 3 should have been marked out, he hit a similar one to win against Cleveland in game 5 I believe but we got what we wanted. 2 Up and I'm sure we'll win atleast 1 on their home floor.

Keep it up man, keep it up! Great win. All we have to do is take 1 in Orlando and finish this biatch is 6.

GO LAKERS!!!!

Also, who here is really starting to get as annoyed as me listening to JVG.

Dat's right !

That shows that we've got here true Laker fans, not Kobe fans or whoever else.

As it should be. Perform well, be praised. Perform poorly, catch hell. Just like real life...

LOL @ the press conference.

"What were the thoughts in your head when the ball was in the air?"

Kobe: "S**t."

does anybody have a gif of the Hedo block on Kobe towards the end of regulation? I swear I saw Rashard foul Kobe before the Hedo block.

Hedo actually bumped Kobe before the block. The way they were calling at that time I was pretty pissed they missed it.

I'm totally biased towards the Magic, but I think both teams got hosed by calls in this game.

It was bad officiating. There were a lot of no-calls that were called in the fourth quarter, and fans of both teams have a legit reason to complain.

Still, they weren't a determining factor in the game.

Don't come in here bringing down the thread with this ref crap. Plus you're a Magic fan, they don't won't me on their board so why in the hell are you here ? GET OUT.

Lewis definitely got a little poke on Kobe's shooting arm, but only slightly. It would have been pretty tough to call a foul there. I thought it was a good defensive play.

Problem is imworthy, some rarely see any faults in him at all, as far as today he took himself out of the game. Of his 5 fouls he committed 3 on his own.

I don't know I thought the Hedo block was legit, if you wanted to call anything on that play it would have to be on the contact with Dwight Howard but even then Dwight looked like he just went straight up...

That play was called well in my opinion. It took me a minute or two to get the homer out of me before I could realize that though... It was very unexpected to say the least.

gotta give some fisher love. came through down the stretch as an experienced veteran. key drives and picking up the foul shots. great drive and dish. and these were like 30 seconds or so in the game. just a smart smart heads up player. this is why despite all of the season stuff about how fish sucks, start farmar or whatever, this is the reason why he is around. those guys do not make championship type plays. and fish does.

PROPS TO FISH!!

LAKESHOW · Post #517 » by **LAKESHOW** » Mon Jun 8, 2009 4:14 am

and oh yeah, KEY STEAL and key defensive plays.

PROPS TO FISH!!

Too lazy to dig up the thread in case someone already mentioned it, but what are the Lakers' statistics when leading serieses 2-zip? Just curious

Sedale Threatt · Post #519 » by **Sedale Threatt** » Mon Jun 8, 2009 4:17 am

All I know is Jackson's 43-0 all time when his team wins the first game of a series. So I'd imagine he's got a pretty decent record when up 2-0.
