Not everybody who said the Lakers will win the championship were a Laker fan.

Correction!

We'll win two home games and take that momentom into the game 5 at Spurs....it'll be a 3-2 lead!!!!

mah hahahaha!

Go lakers: btw if i could tell the Lakers:

"To the Lakers, u had the potential to go into record books as the greatest eam in history- u r goddamn disgracing and dissapointting me! c'mon boys- where's ur determination? You need to play team defense...u still have a chance to turn this series around!

With- Karl malone's hunger for a ring, Shaq's dominance in the post, Kobe Bryant's risk taking and skill and Paytons lockdown D (wqhich may not exist no more)- u could win...add in the benchs enthusiasm (look at Rick Fox...all talk no walk) I think you are a lock for championship 2004...but life is life and you guys are losing now--- all i have now is hope!"

But i won't see the lakers to tell them and they might kill me if i do!

yeah now we see that the person that said that lakers will be swept in this series is a 100% stupid.

and they didn't just win the game they proved that they can beat a great team and make a great team look like a lottery team.

Parker 8 pts 4of 12 FG

Duncan 10 pts 4 of 14 FG

Bowen the kobe stopper alow kobe 22 pts 7 of 13 FG

Well, I just did it.

I've bet my .org membership too.

It was nice of Limpy to ask, but my hatred towards him was confined to this forum. When Mike Davis offered to give up his membership, I grabbed the chance.

Just sad that Magius might have to go too. :cry:

i hope you are not serious here. this game/bet is being done for fun. seeing how there are is a big laker contingency here and the spurs knocked the lakers out last year, i thought it would be a good idea to do something like this.

but hey, whatever floats your boat. if you're doing this out of negativity, hatred, to get rid of people, whatever- go right ahead. actions like this by you come as no surprise

game 5 is thursday- i'm looking forward to it

I'll do it this way for the Lakers.


Anyone wanna change their username?
And Andrew.... for how long?

instead of risking membership, how about the losers have to have in their signature that the other team is the best team in the nba or something like that?


for example if the spurs lose, all the spurs betters must have
"Lakers are the best team" in Laker colors. (till end of playoffs or start of next season heh)

just a suggestion :)

No, its way to late for that now. If anyone who joined this bet and agrees with this thing, is just a sore loser.....the bet was, your team looses, you loose.....or in othr words, you loose your membership

I really hope we don't see any more bets like this after this round. I must admit, I'm quite insulted by the bet, and will likely be amending the rules so that this foolishness doesn't happen again.

Don't feel offended Andrew, it wasnt because we don't like the NLSC that we made the bet in the first place, you should be proud of us in a way. We were willing to give up our membership, for the love of the game, come on..that's showing some faith.

Anyways, no need to worry, I'm gonna be around for a long, long time. Image
