Lakers get mugged down low at the end with no calls. Thats why they can't attack.

I hope the Lakers GET SWEPT. Kobe needs to realize that his bitcihng and moaning and complaining caused KG to choose the Celts...

I am more than willing to hand the championship to Boston if the game will be called like this.

HarlemHeat37 wrote:looks like Harlem was correct about the key being Ray Allen in this series..Kobe's having to run all over the court trying to keep up and he hasn't been able to stop him..Ray's doing a good job defensively as well(obviously helped a lot by the team D too)..
Allen didn't score on kobe last game. He's gotten 6 points on kobe tonight tho.

Lakers should quit playing defense by fouling.

It's time for Phil to mix things up and Kobe needs to take control of his game. While Boston is still doing a nice job defending Kobe, I just feel Kobe needs to relax, and allow his game to speak for it's self. He doesn't look comfortable as he's allowing the Boston defenders to get under his skin.

If the Lakers want the same benefit as the Celtics defensively they should've thought about playing some defense before this series started. Everybody knows how the NBA is today, that's why the Pistons have always been able to get away with fouling: REPUTATION.

Celtics have a reputation has the best defensive team in the league. If you all of the sudden try to play tough D like we do in the Finals you aren't going to get the benefit of the doubt. Simple as that.

Lol lakers were playing defense. Try playing one with foul trouble while their calling everything against you and nothing on other end.
