    The shot wasn't lucky. The position he was in to catch the ball was lucky.

    On a broader level, that's potentially two Western Conference playoff series wins decided on last-second brain farts, the likes of which you'd be dumbfounded if a high-school team were to have. I can't get over just how repetitive all this is... simply incredible.

    Granted, you probably don't like it when the Suns aren't averaging 20 more FTAs a game than LA as they did in Phx.

    Maybe its more like players don't hate other players. Rodman played with Jordan. Who would've ever thought that could happen?

    This is pathetic. You are basically saying Kobe shouldn't be allowed to play. If he's not fouled out in the first quarter. Refs gave it to Lakers, LOL

    You must be like masturbating for your moral victory my friend.

    in '04 Lakers against the Spurs, Tim Duncan hit an incredibly clutch fadaway shot with a hand in his face in the last seconds. Then we know all about the Derek Fisher game winner.

    Semi-similar situation here. Duncan was lucky or clutch depending how you look at it. But its the game winners everyone remembers. Out of 2 luck play, its who benefits from the luck with the W.

    ...And you are basically saying Kobe is allowed to yell at the refs, while other players cannot.

    Better to be moral than to be immoral.

    Kobe shouldn't get special treatment over everybody else on the floor.

    One day when you get the game tapes you'll see that your hero actually spends the bulk of his time yelling and making gestures towards the refs. They just don't show that on the edited ESPN footage you get in your homeland.

    All he is saying that the refs are treating Kobe differently. Perkins got called a technical for screaming while walking away from the ref, yet Kobe can wave his arm in the refs' face all day and get away with it.

    Did you watch the game? After Kobe picked up the quick 2 fouls in the first, the refs swallowed the whistle on him. He has at least 2 more in the second quarter which could've definitely changed the game.

    By the way, learn the language first before you try to diss someone.

    How come the Suns are still in the building? All of them are coming back on the court one by the one talking to the fans. Is there some special Suns thingy going on?

    This game was just.. wow. The last 5 minutes with the Suns coming back (hubris, what happens in LA when their radio announcers already start discussing how to beat Boston at half time), Steve Nash never relenting by continuing to respond with shot after shot, and finally that 3-pointer by Phoenix after so many attempts. Basketball can be amazing.

    And then, J-Rich giveth and taketh away. :(

    how so? you're constantly e-fellating Kobe Bryant and his Los Angeles on this board. And may I remind you that they are our most hated rival after the Jazz? you realize how much crap we took from them last year? elbows, cheap shots, flops? and yet as soon as the Rockets get knocked out, you hop on the good ol' lakers bandwagon and you apply the most pleasurable oral technique to Kobe's private

    Artest does also make some dumb plays.
    But
    Artest plays Hard.
    Artest does the little things.

    This is why I appreciated him last year.
    He may make mistakes but
    1. He doesn't seem to get down on himself
    2. He continues to play hard
    3. I felt alot of that was rubbing off on the other Rockets Last year.

    Battier and Artest was a great combo for us.

    Suns take game 6.


    I'm betting Bavetta and Crawford fuel the Lakers to a game 7 victory.
