Good job by the Lakers. Celts blew it. They had a chance. Now if Gasol and Odom or either of em play well in game 4 they are gonna win. Celts had a chance...Gasol struggling...Odom beyond struggling. Only Kobe going. And then the Machine off the bench was huge. Big time performance by Kobe. No more PP outplaying him articles by Yahoo again. Best player in the series showed up tonight. And the folk legend the Machine made some big shots. Great win by LA...

The shot selection was a result of the Lakers playing Kobe on Rondo. It was basically 4 on 5 whenever Rondo was on the court.


that had nothing to do with Garnett's shot selection, Pierce's shot selection, Cassell's shot selection..giving it to other players in bad situations(like PJ)..Kobe's double teams affected it a few times, but all of the guys I just mentioned had iso's and didn't take advantage of them, instead settling..

If you had any sort of response, you would have posted it by now. But since sportscenter has clips of KG screaming into the camera, I'm a hater. Right.

I think Lakers win the next one.

So game 5 decides the series in my book.

Boston just struggled on the offensive end. I'm very optimistic that it took all of that for LA to win.

Imprtance of spacing on the floor, cannot stress it enough. Start Sasha instead of Vlad. He is useless. So is odom

Kobe, Sasha and Ray were the only players in the game that remembered this was a finals game.

The Celtics gave that game away. The Lakers just don't look like a Championship team to me in any of the 3 games. Hopefully Boston will take less jumpers next game. It's hilarious how the announcers make Kobe look like he has Larry Legend's clutch ability. What a joke.

Why don't you try responding to my arguments instead of resorting to petty insults?

It's good that the Lakers won this one or else we'd still be hearing about the calls from game 2

an MVP, a DPOY, and dominant rebounding speak for themselves, a bad shooting night can't change that :lol:

Yeah, definitely rigged...


Yeah, it's pretty stupid. all I ask for is consistency. I hate how they call part of the game one way then another part of the game another way.
