leave it to radmanovic to just run over someone 30 feet from the basket as the clock is winding down. no one else pulls something that stupid.
farmar has made a bunch of end of quarter crazy shots this year. i half expected that to go in and somehow it did. the lakers basically luck their way back to an 18 point lead after slacking off big time the last 6 minutes.
you know celtics are going to lose game 5 after this trouncing... which means lakers only have to win 1 of 2 in boston done deal fakers win i hope rockets beat these fakers next year
it's VERY hard to win 3 straight v. a team like boston, even if they're inconsistent like they are. i'm sure kg/pierce are due for one great big game on the road.
Wow, James Worthy as the guest on the half time show. Thanks James for keeping houston's women working.
Before the series most people picked the Lakers. Than the Celts win 2 at home (like they should) and everyone starts picking the Celts. And if the Lakers win tonight everyone will jump back on the Lakers bandwagon. Here's the deal: The Celts are the most Jekyll and Hyde playoff team I've seen in a long time. It started with the Atlanta series and continues here. It's not even the fact that they're missing shots. Out the gate these guys looked like they would rather watch Iron Man at Mann's.
Doc "Cry Me a" Rivers isn't coaching well. JVG is pointing this out with getting a $100K fine. Lamar Odom finally showed up.
lakers do a good job of coming out of halftime and looking like complete crap. no intensity, no defense, passing up open shots, gasol still can't do anything. odom about to miss some free throws. edit: but they go on a very nice 8-0 run to get it back to 20. actually concentrating during that stretch.
celtics teasing us with a potential comeback? i dont think so the hole is too deep for this softies to pull themselves out of
what the hell is fisher doing? he's either got an open shot or kobe bryant standing wide open for 3 and he forces a terrible pass into the lane that leads to a fastbreak layup for boston? celtics have owned all of the 3rd quarters. lakers didn't feel like changing that and are on their way to blowing this. i'm guessing the 24 point blown lead will be a finals record. edit: gasol can't hit a ft, and the 3rd time this quarter the lakers body up pierce and let him by for an easy layup. could we at least attempt to make him shoot a jumper? lead goes to single digits, lakers aren't winning this one. not with kobe having his worst game of the playoff and gasol still MIA (just missed a dunk).
vujacic just gets out there and fouls ray allen until they call it. farmar incredibly stupidly leaves house for an open 3 to "contest" a garnett 20 footer. real smart. lakers with one of the more gutless blown leads i've ever seen. it's not even that they can't shoot, they just don't care and are getting completely outworked. a pathetic way to blow this game. kobe has been garbage.
