Just continue to compare a possible missed foul in the 1st quarter with 8min to go or a possible foul that occurred during the beginning of the 3rd quarter, as if any non-call that happens through out a 48min game is comparable to a call that was made with 4sec left in which a team didn't even have the opportunity to control their own out come.


You are going to ignore all the calls that were in your team's favor. It is human nature to forget those when your team loses.

Did those typical missed fouls (that go both ways, not just against the Lakers) cost Lakers the opportunity to win the game like the one that happened at the end of OT?

No, so theres no comparison.

That foul on 3 point shot by SJ called a foul was hilarious. Ball goes out of his hands for good 1 second and they call foul on LO for touching his hand. Lamar's response "Noo, comon dude not in the nba"

The Warriors announcers thought it was legit because it affected his "follow through". LOL

Seriously, it sucked that it ruined a great game but Warriors lost tonight despite given the opportunities earlier and the fact that they blew it in same matter 2 nights in a row, it should not be a devastating loss.

Why are Laker Fans arguing with fans of a team that might not even make the Playoffs?

^^^LOL and why don't you think the Warriors will make the playoffs? Are you one of those casual basketball fans who see the Warriors sitting at the 8th seed and assume that Golden State is hanging on for dear life? lmao.

Wouldn't being in 8th place by half a game be considered hanging on for dear life?

It's only hanging on for dear life if you SUCK, are getting LUCKY and being in a PANIC MODE. The Warriors are simply maintaining their great play. Warriors are 43-20 since the return of Stephen Jackson, that alone would be like the 6th best record in the league.

At least the Warriors control their own destiny. It's unlike last season where they were hoping that the Clippers would lose games so Golden State would catch up to them. This time we're in the driver's seat and we're doing very well, only downfall was that call when Fisher fell down and took Monta with him, ensuring the Lakers the win.

8th place is 8th place.

I don't understand your cockiness when Denver is half a game from knocking your team out of a playoff position.

For the record I do think GS will beat out Denver for that last spot, but I wouldn't be willing to bet money on it.

nuggets have cut two games off the lead in the last 3 games. the warriors are most def. hanging on for dear life. in the west this year, hanging on for dear life doesn't mean you suck. you could be a very very good 50 win team and still be hanging on to dear life. its not an insult in the sense that your team doesn't deserve to be in the playoffs, its just the reality of the conference.

hell even the top seed of the west conf is holding on for dear life... it really isn't that hard to lose a several games to teams you should beat and end up out of the picture.
