My bro tapped the game,i just saw the kobe no call and damn thats disgusting,u can see the bump on his head and shit after,he even points to it when talkin to those hater refs ,thats even worse then the no calls during that cleveland game in the regular season,amazing
oh shit, i forgot about mihm. I wish he was healthy Suns don't have shit inside.
Good game. The Lakers were in it till the end. The only problem i see for LA is this. They ARE the underdogs and the Suns do have homecourt advantage. Everybody knows game 1 is the easiest one to steal in a series. This was their best chance to steal one in Phoenix, it might be harder from here on out for LA. The good thing for them, they didnt get blown out. If they came out and got killed in game one their confidence as a team would be shot for the rest of the series. So at least they got somethin positive to build on for game 2, they competed.
I was angry all day yesterday. Then I realized something. We did not play our best basketball yesterday. Granted the role players had good games but we made a lot of mistakes and almost won.Our entry passes to the middle were god awful, resulting in turnovers yet we almost won.Devean and Sasha commited stupid fouls 30 feet from the hoop but we almost won. (Why the fuck is Sasha out there anyways? He's useless.)We collapsed to much on Nash going inside allowing open 3 point shooters in the 1st and 4th quarters. We defended that play better in the 2nd and 3rd quarters which helped us get back in the game.We missed a ton of layups. Kwame and Odom missed a grip of layups and close baskets. I attribute that to nerves. I think next game they will calm down a bit. I thought they both had good games despite the blown layups, Odom really battled Marion on the glass and played with more passion than I've ever seen him play with as a Laker. Luke had a great game too. I don't even recognize him out there, it's like he's a totally different player.Also, Kobe was colder than an eskimo's vagina, having the worst game he's had in months and still we almost won.Our game plan was solid and if we stay at home with their shooters and settle down a bit, we'll take this series.
Sasha actually did his part, he hit the 3 to give us the lead and hit that half court shot that coulda' been counted.

If you've seen it in slow motion (which abc showed) he was clearly still touching the ball when the buzzer went off. Although he does deserve it for sheer effort IMHO.
I didn't want to start another Laker thread so I'll just ask here. Would it be in the Lakers best interest to play the Clippers or the Nuggets in the second round?

I said it COULDA', not shoulda'...I think it happened too fast to see if the ball was still touching his hand, it all looks like one big blur when it's paused. They probably made the right decision, but it coulda' went either way...

Would it be in the Lakers best interest to play the Clippers or the Nuggets in the second round?Both would be just as tough, in different ways. Overall, I'd prefer to play the Clippers... 7 home games (basically), and a great town-rival. Lakers will also re-establish why Los Angeles is Laker town...Nuggets would be cool too though, but I'm going for the Clippers...PeACe

Every game against the Clippers is basically a home game. Also, don't forget that we don't have to fly back and forth to Denver and LA, which is a huge advantage on its own...I'm going for Clippers all the way, because the series would be better and because of the 7-home-games/comfortability issue...PeACe

People that paid money to see the Clippers are probably Clipper fans. The 7-home-games would give the Lakers an advantage (since there is no travel) over whoever is in the Western Finals (which the Lakers will need). Do the Clippers get any advanatge in this series since technically they are the home team? (like more practice time or whatever) Cause if no then I'm definalty hoping for an LA vs. LA series.
