    Does anybody doubt that coaches like JVG and Adelman would have won a bunch of championships if they coached the Jordan/Pippen Bulls and Kobe/Shaq Lakers?

    Did anybody else laugh at Vujacic flopping so badly?

    The Magic are shooting 76% at home and losing... that can't be a good sign.

    These refs are weak. Either call a foul on Farmar or call a double dribble on Pietrus. It couldn't no call. It's so damn obvious.

    Magic are 19/25 75% from the floor and are still losing, they have no chance. I expect they'll cool down and the Lakers will blow them out in the 2nd half.

    He keeps going for Kobes ball fake and leaving his feet. Its the most basic thing, never understood why a player does that.

    Wow...nice off elbow by Kobe on his last drive (at Lee). I thought he only threw those at Rockets. :rolleyes:

    Lakers will win. No one can shoot 75% for a whole game.

    This isnt towards any play in particular, but I think I can objectively say that Andrew Bynum sucks.

    I would think that everyone in the league would watch Battier tapes on guarding Kobe. Guess not.

    I'm loving this fiery passionate Magic Johnson over his old boring, stuttering, monotone delivery.

    Rafer is due for a good shooting game. It's been a while. He usually does it once every five games or so.

    There are still people on this board who believe that what Battier did against Kobe was nothing special.

    OK, that segment with the kid from Orlando made me tear up- I freely admit it.

    Now, if the Magic continue to shoot at this pace and wind up losing, I'm gonna cry again.
