OT: Spike Lee

Will Smith?

Yet, another celebrity living vicariously through the Los Angeles Lakers because his team, Philadelphia 76ers, isn't there.

Is there no end to the Celtics hatred? It's like all of these celebrities are coming out of the woodworks in favor of the Lakers.

:eek1:

Now I really hope the Celtics can overcome all of this and hold their heads up high with a trophy and ring in spite of the universal BS.

Where the heck is Donnie Wahlberg, by the way? He tends to attend the games in Los Angeles when the Celtics are visiting. He's knowledgeable and insightful from listening to him in the past. He should make his presence known out in Los Angeles if he's there.

He was on the postgame show just the other night. He was at the game.

Oh, yeah, they didn't show him on ABC because he was wearing a Pierce jersey.

See, this is what I'm talking about: You readily put the camera on the celebrities there for the Lakers in Boston and Los Angeles but, yet the camera never finds the celebrities there for the Celtics. The network should be ashamed of themselves. Yeah, ABC isn't bias. :roll:

before the game the camera points to spike and you can hear him say "anybody but boston, anybody but boston".

Post game interviews included scal and donnie. Donnie was being serious like, it is alright, but we need game four. Scal was trying to make jokes, but they were lame. Talking about the lighting.

Anyway your right :beer:

Is that what he was saying...? All I'd heard was him say Boston something. I figured it was a disparaging comment. What a joke. You looked real nice in your New York garb. I don't know, I guess it's fun to dislike a certain franchise, in this case, it's the Celtics.

That laughing can turn to tears real quickly. A lot of the media pundits will have a lot of explaining and back peddling after this series. Win or lose, Boston proved that it wouldn't be a cakewalk for the Lakers.

You would think Spike might want to root for Ray Allen and the Celtics since Ray starred in Spike's highest grossing film "He Got Game".

I actually like most of Spike's films, especially He Got Game and Summer of Sam. It is definitely strange to see him rooting for the Lakers. But you have to give him credit, he is a hardcore, dedicated NBA fan.

Alrighty I gotcha now. I was irate after that loss and turned it off after Donnie's segment.

Semi OT

Spike's a good director and he's got another one coming out that looks good called Miracle at St Anna's. Anyone catch the trailer?

I was hoping a few New York fans would chime in on the topic of Spike Lee, but I guess not.

GuyClinch · Post #37 » by **GuyClinch** » Fri Jun 13, 2008 5:44 am

Well I can see how he would root for the Lakers. he spends alot of time in LA. But I don't get the Celtic hate. WE HAVE RAY ALLEN SPIKE!

Ray Allen expects Spike Lee to sit courtside and root for the Knicks, his favorite team, but he was surprised to hear Lee cheering for the Lakers here in Game 3.
