    Yeah it was amazing. Even Ryan Bowen would have made that. Amazing. Just amazing.

    But this game wasn't as bad as you may think for Boston. They played shut down defense in the 2nd half but you just can't win when two of your main 3 guys are hurting you on the offensive end.

    The Celtics stand absolutely no chance if Rondo doesn't play aggressively. And he didn't tonight. He mostly went to the same exact spot and tried to orchestrate some half court offense. It wasn't working well.

    That last instant replay was one of the biggest jokes I've ever seen. Why have the replay if you are going to ignore the obvious foul on KG, the only reason it was Celtics ball? Then the refs do a makeup call on the flop to even it out. So stupid.

    Great win by the Lakers.

    Derek Fisher played his heart out today ....gotta love the passion.

    Well, to be fair, it's not like rooting for the Celtics is that much better, to be honest.

    Well, he had limited offensive options because the refs took Pierce out of the game again. So far they've taken Allen, KG, Kobe, and Pierce out of important Finals games. Is this what we're supposed to love about the sport?

    I still have the celts in 6, but some people make their own luck and some wish for it. The lakers organization covers their bases and its about rings, nothing else

    Fisher can cry all he want. I still have no respect for the guy after this.

    Yeah, I hate that little midget and I still think he's the worst defender in the NBA, but he did play huge down the stretch. Probably just flopped himself into another contract.

    It is. At least they are from the other conference and we haven't faced them in the playoffs in a lot of years.

    Why didn't someone from the rokets put someone from the lakers into the cheap seats? Oh I forgot, the rockets have too much class :rolleyes:

    I really wondered what happened.

    When was the last time a starting player, in the NBA Finals, went at least 0-5 on every single shooting statistic (aside from FTs)?

    I know he wasn't trying to. It's just par for the course for Ray in big money, pressure situations. Hopefully people will acknowledge that.

    I'm really looking at myself about it, but I still hate this guy's guts. And that's all I can think about even as I watch him crying in an interview.

    Headline from Yahoo:

    Kobe Bryant carried the Lakers' offense

    WTF

    they won't. he won a championship (and he sucked like his for 2 series during that run also) so it doesn't really matter. the same applies to paul pierce.

    it's a disgrace.

    He's always been clutch. Some guys aside from the obvious superstars are imperative to winning by having them on your team. Players like Robert Horry, Derek Fisher and to a smaller extent Mario Elie and James Posey come to mind.
