big baby earned my respect tonight. as a coach all you can ask for is someone to play with heart and put it all on the line.
Wow, they finally let them play. Very enjoyable game to watch. Still waiting for two of the three Celtics' starters to have a big (or even average) game. They take game #5, they got a chance. I'm putting $100 on the Lakers to hedge it, so win/win.

Man, it's so hard to root for the Celtics. But hey, they are playing the Lakers. So yeah, Go Celtics!! :grin:
My favorite play was when big baby knocked down kobe, like godzilla knocks down tourists in tokyo.

Garnett's fire, leadership and unselfishness is the heart of the Celtics. I'm waiting for Paul Pierce to improve his body language and mentality in this series. Has he really aged that much?
If davis could get his weight to 265,he could be a very,very good player. He's a fundamentally sound player. Nate may not want to do it, but backing up ronda and having the green light fits him.I think he has 1 big game left in his bag.
It was the Kobe & Gasol show. Only other person in double digits was Lamar Odom w/ 10(though only 10 in 39 minutes). Lakers gonna need more from others. Bynum missing also hurting them. Magic or one of the guys on set hit on it; w/o Bynum you force Odom into the starting lineup, weakening the already weak bench.
Bynum is a weird player, he's supposedly one of the top 5 centers in the league, some even say he is number 2 or 3. Yet, his production has been in the Finals and most of the playoffs have been near . . . Yao Ming. An injured Yao Ming. Even with the injury, you would think he would be able to give them more than he is. The main thing that is killing the Lakers is bench play. Their bench is getting thrashed (as I expected). Boston is realistically deep with Rasheed, Nate, Tony Allen, and Big "Slobberin'" Baby Davis. I really do not see the Lakers at this point shutting that bench down, they have no one to guard Nate or Big Baby, unless the starters play extended minutes.
The Great Lamar Odom is averaging in 4 finals games 26 minutes, 7.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.8 fouls a game. lol pathetic
If Bynum is only good for 10 minutes a game. . . let them be the in the 4th quarter See what you can get out of Lamar. . then yank his b*tch *ss when he not producing. The got length but they need Bynum's bulk on Big Baby. Big baby is moving Lamar and Pau like scarecrows out there. I know this sounds CRAZY but The lakers need Artest to Take Paul Peirce down low Ron ron's 3 point is not great but he can still work the low post. I think he can get by Paul on the face up too. Secret to this series is 1. If Artest can play CONTROLLED OFFENSe. . The celtics are Toast 2. If Lamar can grow some fricking balls . . . The Celtics are Toast 3. If Bynum can play some extended minutes. .. The Celtics are Toast Chances of any of them three happening????? 50/50 Rocket River
Lakers undefeated in Game 5's (9-0) 8 wins on the road, 1 win at home in the Gasol Era. Lakers should win tomorrow then
