    Agreed totally. It's undeniable that Kobe's constant whining and working of the officials ultimately intimidates them into making those type of calls or non-calls (depending upon the situation).

    All the same though, i'm glad they just let them play in that instance.

    well JJ got fouled on that pumpfake and yet they're calling every one of Kobes, that is one slip up.

    SVG is in a constant state of tension.

    Can't agree less.
    when Rafer crazily clanked again and again in cluth time, Jameer is the last ace in the hole for SVG.

    It's seems like it's also a BIG mistake to play Fisher in this series. Dude is awful.

    Taking into account Kobe still not focusing on offence, Magic winning chance is getting smaller.

    See how the offense for the Magic get's slow & stagnate when Rafer's out of the game...Jameer Nelson should be no where near the court...Johnson was playing better then him.. :rolleyes:

    Wasn't Rafer on the court for that entire 30-14 whipping in the 3rd quarter?

    Pietrus has been balling but he's a is a very non-creative fast breaker. He never passes even when he has numbers, and does the same strong to the rim scoop layup.

    Atleast Magic were getting looks..right now Magic aren't getting anything...what?....so it was Rafer's fault Ariza went off in the 3rd...you can't blame everything on Rafer..I think he was guarding Fisher anyway :rolleyes: :D

    They've reduced the Lakers lead with Nelson in the game.
