That call bothers me when Odom uses his right hand to push Anderson out of the way. If anything it should not be any call whatsoever or offensive.
I've said it before, I'll say it again. That exchange is why NBA officials are so annoying. You want us to accept that you're human, that it's hard to officiate a game with such high-flying athletes? Great. Then accept that when you screw up, as they did there, players are going to be upset for a bit, and don't be a baby and call a T, potentially deciding a playoff game because you got your feelings hurt. Officials need to man up. (As does Gasol, who sold a major flop.)
Carmelo Anthony with a hard foul on Bryant and then he goes over to check on him! That should be a technical due to precedent.
Take back what I said about the poise, playing way too much 1 on 1. Jr Smith and Carmello jacking up careless shots.
that is always stupid. like when courtney lee dunks "on" lebron on fastbreaks where he starts out 15 feet ahead and lebron almost catches up. that's not on, that before. and kleiza never misses these days.
OMG- did you see Shannon Brown making a jump shot FADING TO HIS LEFT????? How ridiculously lucky can the Lakers get? Completely absurd. Why does this always happen to me?? Sorry, just doing my best francis4prez imitation- love your enthusiasm, but boy, you've got that my-team-never-gets-a-break-and-the-other-team-is-always-getting-lucky routine down pat.
I can't stress this enough, the Lakers need to waive Derek Fisher. He is done as an NBA player. How Phil Jackson can't see this is after so many years is beyond me. Surprised Karl has left Dahntay Jones on the bench for so long, his physical play was really giving LA trouble in the 3rd.
luke walton seeing if he can single-handedly lose this game and then kobe steps in to see if he can lend a hand. about 6 inches away from his 7th turnover of the game. take care of the damn ball and stop being so careless with the dribbling and setting up of your move. actually make a move.
