    Utah made it interesting in the 4th quarter but the Lakers did enough to get the win on the line.

    lmao ahahaha utah lost =D
    But I must say, that was a damn good comeback by Utah, two nice clutch three's by AK47 (even though I dislike the guy lol). Damn they played pretty well in those last 20-30 seconds, soooo close!

    Unlucky I guess lol, they had two opportunities to tie the game and both were by their best shooters! I hope Lakers lose if its Hornets, win if its Spurs =p

    :eek: Sad but true. Sometimes it's this minor thing between first-round losers and nba Finalists.

    Another year, another Utah playoff loss. Seriously -- it's an annual tradition.

    Kobe got some real favorable calls down the stretch, but the difference between him and T-Mac is enormous. I don't say that to put down T-Mac, but Kobe never stopped attacking it seemed and he was straight balls at the line.

    I believe the Rockets will be up there next year, but when you evaluate the teams at the top of the West, I seriously hope the Rockets don't stand pat. The Lakers are going to be a terror next year, and they still may win it all this year.

    I don't like the Lakers l but I'm happy for Odom. He plays like a glorified role player at times but when he passes,postups,and shoots I enjoy watching him.
    Kobe is an arrogant guy but a great talent who needed Gasol,Odom,Fisher to get to the Western Conference Finals so far. If the Rockets had a better supporting cast Utah would probably have been beaten by us.

    Kobe has the refs in his pocket. He committed a couple of offensive fouls and refs called it on the defender. You can't defend Kobe like that.

    Yeah, I'm sure a lineup with Gay, T-Mac, and Yao would've been good for 20 wins at most.

    Anyway, Head should be enough to land us Miller or another decent 3rd scorer.

    It's always sweet to see Utah get bounced. Couldn't happen to a more deserving team or city.
