i remember this game vividly. i was extremely pissed about the beatdown we were getting. yet at the sametime i was very confident if the team could get the game within ten in the third quarter they would come out with a win. vujabitch's reaction to having his ankles broken was icing on the cake.

watching that game. It just reminded me how different it is to have KG out there.

Also how unpolished our team was last season. pure grit and toughness along with Posey/House being drop dead shooters... brought us back in that game.

That team had a lot of holes and the Cassell experiment was a failure along with our PG play being poor. So many holes and they still made historical victories... all of grit and toughness and clutch shooting.

I want to be back in the finals, I remember game 4 like it was yesturday I remember seeing the Zohan before it which sucked and driving back hearing we were like down 15 in like the first 5 mins then got home to see Lamar Odom dominating and jamming it home, then Sasha looking like an idiot then us making a sudden comeback before half but then that idiot Farmar nailed a 3 at the buzzer. After that the night only got better and better

I saw it was on so I DVRd it.

Man, were the Lakers broken at the end of that game. The Red Sea parted for Ray's layup -- all the Lakers were looking at each other like somebody stole their bike.

We almost made a similar comeback in Game 5, only Kobe pickpocketed Paul. Which turned out to be a good thing, because we got to humiliate LA at home.

yeah we would of closed it out in 5 if Perkins was available.

I remember being scared though after game 5 thinking... maybe Perk won't be there for game 6... damn I don't want a game 7 NBA Finals. Not another game 7 dear god please!

One thing I remember also as we lost our first game both times this years playoffs... for all our struggles in the playoffs last year... we were never down in a series. We were tied often. But we were never down.
