    Game 3 wasn't a must win for the Lakers like game 6 was for both the Heat and the Lakers. Game 3 is definitely something they needed but if they lost game 3 odds are they still go back to LA down 3-2.

    Game 7 was a terribly played game by Kobe. Horrible shot selection and a refusal to pass when the Celtics were double and triple teaming him every time he touched the ball. It was bad basketball and I won't even attempt to defend him for it.

    Yes, I am so far. If more people disagree I'll have no problem owning up to that. But that's better than trying to start a skewed poll and not telling the full story, as other posters besides me have pointed out in your thread.

    My poll has stats, yours had team names.......and you think my poll was skewed? You already lost, and yet i don't see you 'taking it like a man' like you were telling me to do when you were so confident. ;)

    Actually I'm winning (at the moment) and haven't made one gloating post about being ahead in either thread. "Surprisingly", you haven't been back to the thread since the tides turned.

    Yeah, Dirk wasn't clutch in the playoffs before 2011.

    It's not like he went 37-15 against one of the best defensive teams of all time in the Spurs in GAME 7 or anything in 2006

    Or maybe 2001, where without a tooth and while dealing with food poisoning he scored 30 for the MAvs in Game 4 against the Spurs again to save his team from elimination.
