So what? They're in the playoffs, and they'd be up 3-1 if not for Jackson's collapse. The playoffs and regular season are two completely different entities. If Jim Jackson hadn't said all that crap about playoff experience, I wouldn't feel this way. Believe me, I also hope they play the game of their lives on Wednesday. I hope Jim Jackson hits the game winner. But until that happens, I blame him for throwing this series away.
Damn Jim Jackson, you turned ZRB back into being negative. I'm gonna agree with pretty much everything ZRB has said here. Jimmy J kept us in it late in the game, but that pass he made just plain sucked. Francis led us back into it also, but he choked equally as bad missing the free throw, not running a play on the final possession of regulation, and then making that pathetic turnover at the end of OT. They brought us back but gave it away, AND I CAN'T ******* STAND IT!!!
Thank You Jimmy for making this past season somewhat bearable w/ your professional and inspiring stellar play Thank You Jimmy for keeping us in this Game 4 w/ your heart, persistence, and focus Thank You Jimmy for leaving all you had out on the court today- the contribution far outweighed the negatives
You are kidding, right? In the first game, it was a 3-pt shot. Nobody can gurantee you a basket there. Even by JJ's 40% 3-pt standard, it is more likely than not he would miss that shot. This is like OT in football team, you don't blame the guy for lossing the coin toss, even he has 50% chance of guessing it right. Here we are talking about less than 40%. How can you pin the blame on him? These are two tough losses, wer are all feeling bad. but it seems you have turned totally unreasonable.
I am with ZRB. Someone posted a while ago saying that his gf made a comment about Jim Jackson doing stufffs out of his ability. I see him doing in over and over and over. I dont know if it is their game plan or not, but I really do not like when he brings down the ball. He has going up against Kobe one on one countless times this series and came out empty. Before he got the ball stolen by Kobe, I shouted out "PASS THE BALL"... what do i know... a second later kobe has the ball...... There is a reason why this guy is a journey man. If he is that good, and he can contribute so many ways, why has he been kicking around the league so many times? He choked and choked. Role player shouldnt bring the ball down.. role player shouldnt go up 1 on 1 against kobe. His role is making 3s and play tough D.. and he didnt make the last 3 in game one. He didnt do his job and he needs to be traded. I dont think we need him in near future (next year)... Boki seems like he is gaining confidence and ready to step up. Trade him for a back up point guard!
Damn it, I can't figure out this rating system. Can someone tell me how again you can rate a thread with a negative rating?
I'm not sure how it took this long to get ZRB to my ignore list, but he made it. Would you guys please NOT quote his crap so I won't have to read it.
DD said it best.....experience and crunch time veterans vs our bunch...I love these guys and man they played their heart out, but 2 games dropped by inefficiency play in the end...the Lakers did not force us this loss...we beat ourselves for sure...they only capitalized on our inefficiency, which is what great players do... 4/22 from the 3line...wowsa!!!!! I'd say this is the team with a few tweaks for next year and they should advance based on all this lack of experience talk... Malong may be a mess and a dirty player, but without him tonight, they lose 100%...we gave him the points and it beat us...
