NBA Finals- Game 6- Official Thread
Sccit:
^LOL...take your sig down. luck of the Irish is runnin out. Artest is an X-factor. Dude is our anchor on defense. While Ariza was a very good role player, Artest's defense, toughness, and tenacity has proven to be vital to our run this year. Lakers handlin business.

Anyways, ain't it funny how everybody is talking about how Bynum might miss the games because of his knees and now he is playing and Perkins just injures his knee in the first quarter?

yep, that's it, Trevor Ariza. I'm curious to see what kind of season he had this year, I don't remember hearing anything about him after he left the lakers.
The Perkins injury isn't a big deal in my opinion. I think they are a much better team with Rasheed Wallace or Bigbaby on the floor anyway.

ariza was running the offense on the rockets (which he was horrible at) he had a couple good games but he proved he cant be a go to guy not last season anyways. since they got kevin martin im sure he'll soon be the first option unless yao comes back 100% and given he doesnt go into free agency. BUT ARIZA WOULD NOT have shutten down DURANT int he first round although even with ariza i dont think we would of lost but it would of gone to 7.
Perkins gettin injured is a VERY VERY big deal, thats ONE LESS BIG thatll take the fouls and hes a traditional big center that can defend bynum or gasol (when hes playing like a scrub). more or less gasol bcuz i believe gasol can beat perkin off the dribble with his finess.
without perkins u lose a big man thats very capable of defending the bigs, if sheed and davis get into foul trouble what than? theres gonna be a mismatch with atleast one laker big.
also it changes the routine and their chemistry. plays would be different because both those bigs shooters and can space up the floor, which can be a blessing and a curse. and plus big baby CANNOT defend gasol or bynum

Yeah, kind of seemed like both teams subconsciously agreed that they would decide this affair in a Game 7.

lol i bet David Stern called up the NBA doctors and said "DON'T CLEAR PERKINS TO COME BACK IN GAME 6"

Right, because Perkins averages 22 points a game. ::)

yea but it doenst help having 1 of your 2 7 footers being injured when the other team has 3 (generously) 7 footers (odom,bynum.gasol)
obviously perkins isnt an explosive offensive player hes basically a dwight howard thats alot slower and (even though it might be impossible) has less offensive game than dwight howard.
hes a traditional center that doesnt really have any above the average skills, but he still is a traditional center which is hard to come by these days. hes there to be a strong post presence that can lock down the bynums, the dwights, the al jeffersons, greg odens, and smaller defenders.
and plus its the fouls, havnt u guys noticed that the celtics bigs have just been pounding on ours without the regard for fouls? without perkins its 6 less fouls and plus they might have a smaller player in there (besides big baby n sheed) to defend but it just makes them more prone to 3 point plays.
