Walton (laughing) I concur...wholeheartedly!

And did you notice those times where Kobe drilled jumpers over one defender in the 4th? That's why Kobe gets a double.


Again, look at the facts:

Kobe scores 42.5ppg vs. the Suns in the season; Suns win 3 out of 4

Kobe hasn't scored over 30 in this series; Lakers win 2 out of 3

An adjustment needs to be made on defense.

If they adjust, they will be leaving the defensive guru raja bell on an island against kobe. then the suns will be in all sorts of trouble.

I watch Euroleague and such and the fans are much for rowdy than in the NBA. Even College fans are rowdier. They need some of that to make it a real playoff atmosphere. Its probably cuz of all the old folks who watch games that dont wanna get a heart attack or something of the sort.

Yeah, even when Euroleague grands came to Kaunas Sports Hall, they are stunned how great the support and atmosphere was there... 8-)

Wow, I'm surprised Smush hit that 3. I knew someone was going to make one, but I was expecting it to be Devean Geroge. I guess even prophets like myself can be fuzzy on some of the minor details.

Suns. Screwed. Shit. I can't believe this. They said the ref couldn't see Nash calling the TO because of the double team, but in the replay, he was looking right at him. Also, the Lakers didn't have a hand on the ball, so it should've been called. This is just another golden example of the refs blowing a great game. This plus the LeBron travel. I'm so angry! :evil:

Unbelievable!

Wait, nevermind. It's plenty believable. This wouldn't be the first time a team has recieved the shaft in Staples Center.

at least he recognizes that LeBron did travel and the call should have been made. I don't know about anyone else but i wouldn't feel right if my team won on a blatant non-call.

I don't think anyone disagrees that lebron traveled. That person wouldn't be a true basketball fan if they didnt recognise that. It's the bashing of lebron because the refs didn't call it thats unfair.

I don't even have to read the thread to answer this one. MP3 means MVP. It's from Borat, the guy from Da Ali G Show. He does a commercial for NBA basketball with Steve Nash, and refers to him as 'da MPfree' instead of MVP. :P

Is it just me or are the playoffs rigged? No time out call for Nash which led to the rape.

for all the suns fan in here whining about the refs..... well i guess we're even..... only difference is the lakers are up 3-1.......

PHOENIX (AP) -- Tim Thomas admits he got away with whacking Kobe Bryant in the head at a critical point in Game 1 of the first-round playoff series between the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers.

"I definitely fouled him," Thomas said Monday. "I got away with one, but I didn't do it intentionally. It wasn't like I threw a jab at him."

With less than a minute to play, and the Lakers down 101-97, Bryant was sent tumbling to the floor as he lost the ball on a drive to the basket, incredulous that no whistl

You're excluding the loose ball foul in the critical seconds of game 2 that was not called which kept the Suns from winning that one as well.
