    u seriously cannot blame the refs tonight. it's been a great game by the refs. they are pretty much letting them play on both ends. game is not being slowed down by calls all the damn time.

    Team USA was torched by the other team's perimeter player in 2 consecutive tournament until Kobe went for rescue. Without him LeBron's still LeBronze.

    I don't know; I'm thinking the opposite. The Lakers are showing their age and the fact that Kobe and Pau are sucking it up against an undersized, but gritty, team, is not a good sign for them. This isn't like the Rockets in '09 when the Lakers were just pacing themselves-- they are really trying in this game.

    I just realized that Gray is playing. I thought he would be out of whole playoffs.

    they're trapping him like crazy. all you can do is pass, unless you want him to go 1-on-1 all game.
