    man SVG draws the best offensive plays. JVG can learn a lot from his brother.

    battier understands this better than anyone i've ever seen. he always just keeps backing up and lets the player trying to force the foul throw himself off balance and end up missing an easy layup. it's beautiful. he should teach everyone else on the rockets.



    and yet no posts about the ball called off kobe that wasn't. hmmm.

    I don't see why people think the series is over even if orlando loses. They need to win 2 and turn it into a best of 3. I doubt they will win all 3 at home.

    That was a better made shot, than it was a good play.

    The in-bounds alley-oop was great, however.

    If Turk wasn't going to catch and shoot, he should've passed the ball.

    You knew he was gonna miss it after that hesitation.

    Good thing JJ Redick decided to pass up the three off the curl and dribble for about five seconds there, only to take a fallaway with a hand directly in his face. You wouldn't want to hurry or anything, being down five with 15 seconds.

    I'm sickened by this. Honestly, sickened. Nevermind that monstrosity of a 4th quarter giving Kobe every break imaginable. As A_3PO stated: the Magic were essentially playing 3-on-5 during crunchtime. NOT GONNA GET IT DONE. To say the very least. Credit to the Lakers.

    Down 2-0, the Magic have close to a zero chance of winning the series. The Lakers are more talented and have Kobe Bryant. The Magic backcourt is trash. This series is over.
