    Why is it that Everytime the <B>Sacramento Kings</b> score a basket on a broken play, the commentator's mainly Marv Albert always calls it a lucky play. And most of the time he comments,<I>Well(lllllllllllll) that wasn't a play that was setup by Rick Adelman.</i>

    Yet everytime the Lakers have a broken play, Bill Walton calls it "<B><I>A masterful setup by Phil Jackson."</b></i>




    I've had that question in my mind for many years.

    Any Suggestion's on what that means?

    I particularly love how Marv Albert notes that the Lakers were only down 4 at 50-46, completely disregarding the fact that the Kings were leading after surviving an unreal first quarter from LA, reminiscent of the first quarter of game 1. The fact that the Kings are leading after surviving a Laker start that had them shooting 15-23 from the field is a testament to how well they're playing. However, you can't help but feel the Kings would be up double digits if they could ever grab a rebound...

    yes but overall i dont really get a sense of biasness for the lakers from marv. when horry hit that shot he seemed kind of disappointed and surprised in my opinion.
    :(
