    I love seeing all the people complaining about the Lakers losing because of the refs. Considering that 90+% of the time, they're the ones benefiting from bad calls at the end, I'm not upset.

    Also, I love seeing Kobe shoot 2-10 in the second half. Best player in the game!

    Heat played great.

    This just shows that when you have this much talent on a team, you can't be counted out of the playoffs.

    I still think a second round exit. BUT, again, when you have this kinda talent, there is always at least hope

    Same people who criticize LeBron after a loss come in here criticizing him after they win.


    lol @ the folks complaining saying the refs gave Miami this game. The same Laker nuthuggers in here complaining about the lack of calls they get. Whining about the refs is lame as hell. Hate when Garm does and I hate it in general when the same people do it after every loss for their team.

    fouls are fouls.

    but Goaltending should be a reviewed

    should never review fouls, that would be like reviewing balls and strikes

    Haha I agree. Lakers get calls all day and night. Love seeing them lose. DWade shows he should be the closer and not Lebron.

    Did I say DWade should have the ball in the end instead of James? Wade won this game for Heat.

    Wade had the more favorable matchup at the end of this game, going against the weaker defender. If Lebron has the better matchup or is playing better throughout the game, he should be the one with the ball in his hands at the end.

    But the Lebron haters always say that you can't deal with hypotheticals.

    If you can say "Lebron wouldn't have taken the 2007 Cavs to the Finals in the West," then a Lebron supporter can say "Lebron played the Celtics better in 2008 (or 2010) than Kobe did, so he would have won the title that year if he had Kobe's supporting cast" or "Lebron would have tons of rings if he came into the league with a prime Shaq as his teammate, especially since he became a top-level player faster than Kobe did."

    buy my hypotetical is not saying anything about Lebron/Kobe winning a ring in any given year. Just says winning the east was not that impressive.

    oh yah, what happened to that Lebron team in the finals?

    20+ FTs in the 4th quarter. See if you can find some examples.

    They got swept, but Kobe wouldn't have even gotten that supporting cast to the playoffs. Instead he would have been crying to be out of Cleveland years before LeBron finally did leave.

    No, he would just throw his teammates under the bus, cry to the media, and say things like ""At this point I'll go play on Pluto." Because he's had it SO HARD.
