    Kobe with the clutch shot over Gay who couldn't get around the pick fast enough.

    Can the Griz respond?

    If you can't score a basket at home with 5 seconds left you don't deserve to win a game.

    Nope, ItsHisFault.

    Brooks choked against the Hornets the other day and it wasn't the first time he's missed clutch FTs. I've seen Yao miss quite a few in his career in pressure moments.

    I imagine most players in the league shoot FTs worse when the game is on the line. There aren't many who don't succumb to that pressure once in a while.

    The FT shot in the situation isn't as easy as every one assumes.

    When you hit a game winning 3, it usually is natural...no thinking, you just rise up and shoot...

    But the FT...sometimes those crazy thoughts can creep up in your head "If I don't make these..."

    Prbly why Dirk sings songs in his head when at the line.

    all they needed was a 2. AT HOME.

    When did Ariza ever have that shot?

    oh wait, the 3 he made to take the Lakers to overtime.

    zach randolph got wacked on his arms like a flagrant foul and it wasnt called

    technical for the coach.

    total bs.

    refs handed the wins to the lakers.

    although mayo did his best to throw the game

    Plus it's stupid to compare a role player like Ariza to a lotto pick Scorer like OJ Mayo.

    I expect more from Mayo.

    that's why you can't fail with Miracle whip.
