    he played good d to begin with, but he made the same mistake on D that always kills him, he gambled. He went for the steal, allowing Kobe to find space to dribble, then like he usually does, Ron didn't try to defend after Kobe went up.

    He did this a lot the time Kobe lit him up during the regular season, he'd play D on the ground, once Kobe went up, he'd just stare onat him.

    This is when the value of a great perimeter player comes in handy, its takes too long to feed someone in the post.

    Not happy team.

    Rox did not play as a unit in the 3rd quarter. Too many one on one BS on the perimeter and not enough disciplined post up basketball. If Yao is fronted, then swing to the other side and post up Scola or Artest quickly. Ron's heat check threes were bad shots.

    AB I'm not touching this subject anymore, he might as be a younger version of Alston.

    well, at least we will take the experience from this playoff. We will be better next year.

    Rox need to keep low profile..Lakers are better and we need fight for the win...

    JVG: "That's an easy call"

    Van Gundy's been hanging around Marc Jackson too long. That was all ball from Landry.

    After first quarter, the game looked like it was going at Laker's speed. Now, it looks like its going at our tempo. We just need to find a way to score.

    Where's Bob Sura and Mario Elie when you need them?

    We need guys who are tough (who don't lose touch with the game!)

    Any threads working or are they all down?
