This doesn't even seem like a challenge for the Spurs. Sensing a repeat for the Spurs. Maybe a threepeat. Really, they should have like 5 championships in a row if it weren't some freak shots by Derek Fisher and Dirk Nowitski. Now THEY seem to be making the freak shots (Suns game 1, Horry's nicely timed body checks). I don't see anything stopping them for the next few years.

Lakers really stinking it up in the 1st half, particularly on defense. Hopefully Spurs choke in the 3rd because that's what it might take for the Lakers to get themselves into the flow of things.

Spurs don't foul like Collins said. Any ref biased that does or does not exist will be known in this series.

Kobe has to score or else lakers defense cannot stop spurs from out scoring laker no matter how efficient other lakers play.

PS: Phil is coaching like a real idiot tonight. There was no reason for Kobe to sit so long, and what the hell happened to Radman?

His rotations are absolutely sucking.

LOL odom total mental midget. He has no confidence now that he sees some actual defense played against him. Time to spend that big contract expiring next year for the lakers.

Lose Game 1 at home might as well hand the Spurs the series. Where is all the rigged talk now huh.

:lol:

Anything can happen next half, but at least some Laker fans can stop suggesting Gasol giving Duncan problems.
