Just be thankful that Dick "p&g 4evr!" Bavetta isnt reffing. He gifted the Lakers 2000 game 7 and 2002 game 6 and would surely be on the roster if he didn't fail his eye test (or whatever it was). Eddie Rush would be a great sign but I'm predicting Foster, D. Crawford, and Salvatore. Hopefully they feel some sympathy for the C's and let Sheed play more than 10 min.
Something tells me Doc will be pissed at Williams and play the best player in the world tomorrow, Brian Scallabrine
D-Day. Going for the Celtics. I'll really begin to believe in some of the NBA conspiracies if Bavetta, Crawford and the other fraud are are reffing this one. It can't be 5 on 8 for a game seven.
This series should have been Lakers in 5. I never thought I'd feel this way,but now that the NBA has COMPLETELY sold out to have 7 games and the "tweaking" of games is so obvious I'm starting to compare it to MLB and how money has ruined the game. I'm not there yet,but this has been disgusting and sad. Moment of truth for the NBA as far as I'm concerned.
Actually, he does have ridiculously large hands according to that Sports Science video that was floating around here. I don't know how they compare to Shaq's though.
Refs are Foster and the Crawford boys. So how many games has Joe reffed this series? I am so "suprised" he got the call this game. http://www.nba.com/news/referee.html
Wow, Joe Crawford AGAIN? That's his third game in this series. As if the C's didn't have it hard enough!
Lakers will be up by 15 at half, 10 after the 3rd, but Boston will come back (despite JC's best efforts) and win on a Ray Allen buzzer beater. Boston 102 LAL 101
As much as I don't want the Celtics to win (i.e. I hate KG more than I hate Kobe), it would be awesome if Ray Allen can repeat his Game 2 performance and lead the Celts to victory
RA had a big game because Kobe was in foul trouble in that game. Not gonna happen again. He actually shot worse than Artest in this series.
all i know is this i will be attending Video Games Live tonight at the nokia theater across the street and there better not be too much mindless rioting after the game i want to get home quickly and sleep
"The mind games have already begun. Folks at Staples Center departed from routine and left the Game 6 score on the big board over the court for yesterday’s practices. The chagrined Celtics were forced to work with “89-67’’ staring down at them from the rafters. Sounds like something Red Auerbach would have done in the old days." http://www.boston.com/sports/basket...ics_core_tonight_may_be_a_last_hurrah/?page=2
Allen has shot worse than Artest on three's, but not overall. Ray is shooting 39.5% for the series, while Artest is at 35.2%.
Thanks. Hey, where have you been? We saw a lot of you when LA was up 2-1, and then you got ghost when they were down.
