You know the Kings hate the Lakers and would love to prevent the Lakers from getting home-court advantage.


If we win out, I'd still rather face the Rockets, even with this win, the Spurs still scare me. I'm hoping the Spurs win their last game and the Rockets drop a game or two.

Well, not too surprised it went like that for SA - one of the three scenarios

Doesn't help when they're significantly short-handed

Solid stuff for the Lakers no doubt

There's no way those little girls did that, Kobe prolly made it an hour before the game with his boy Turiaf.


Don't you have some old ladies to beat up somewhere?

Spurs want to take the easiest road to the WCF, so they are tanking to the 5th spot against Utah. Now they are screwing Houston because we freaking deserve the 5th SPOT!

Why would you want the fifth when you can have the first?

If you lose to Nuggets on purpose tonight, Warriors fans are going to burn your board down! :D :lol:

Yeah, Spurs needed Jon Barry to come down from the booth and suit up, and Rasho needed to fly to LA after his game with the Raptors this morning and then the Spurs would have won today. Where was Sean Elliot, did he get a DNP?

True, especially the Jazz seems to own the Rockets.

Utah is not paperbag, nor does any playoff team in the west. Utah is streaking and you don't want to play a streaking team because everything could happen. I don't think Spurs is tanking. They just didn't have enough fire power vs LA today.

Yes because playing Utah and L.A. to get the WCF, possibly without homecourt to either, is the easiest road by far :roll:

When Kobe sees d-leaguers he shoots them on sight. When Lebron sees d-leaguers he wants to shake their hands and make them breakfast. That's the difference between Kobe and Lebron.

I though the Cavs are playing the Wizards in the playoff no matter what...may be that's why they are so bad? Just to stay under the spot lights?
