Take Drew out. We don't need missed fts and no passing at this point

He's been the best Laker big. What the fuck are you watching? Only one doing anything.

Shannon Brown coming it for Ron? NOOOOOOOO

 

[Gigglepoo]

Not trying to shit on the city really I am not.. but you traded for TO when he handcuffing the 49ers, and you got him after the first trade was revoked by the NFL..

TO's agent forgot to file for free agency in time, so the Niners traded him to Baltimore. But the NFL somehow ignored their own rules and let him go to Phily (as a free agent). I have no idea why. Stupid NFL.

Anyway, Philly's a tough sell. Bitter fans, lousy weather, and iffy history. Not much upside.

 

[NomarTyme]

Kome.

 

[ClovingWestbrook]

Anyone who still thinks Lakers are getting to the finals let alone winning it all are smokin' something fierce.

 

[Forceatowulf]

wtf is Kobe doing.................

 

[Kimosabae]

Oh please. Ariza carried the team in the first quarter when it seemed like they were about to give up. Paul is awesome but Trev and Landry have played great as well..

Tell that to Reggie.

 

[Black Mamba]

Get Bynum in for LO. LO is useless tonight.

 

[Zep]

Is this by design for Ariza to get blown by every trip? You have to actually be good on defense to play up...

 

[Cloudy]

I don't like that last shot by Kobe. Take a clean jumper, please

 

[Lunchbox]

kome showing his playoff form

The deal that sent him to Baltimore wasn't exactly revoked. The Ravens ended up getting compensation from both the Niners and Eagles.

 

[threenote]

we're going to lose BECAUSE of Kobe.

5-16

 

[Black Mamba]

The Lakers are playing gimpy Chris Paul.

Gimpy? how so.

 

[Doomsayer]

we're going to lose BECAUSE of Kobe.

5-16

No. Just no.

We are giving up way too many offensive rebounds.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Get Bynum in for LO. LO is useless tonight.

Bynum is useless too. Might as well put in Theo and Joe Smith because our bigs played like pure shit tonight. That was the game. It's our biggest advantage if we don't use it then CP3 gets to be a much bigger factor than he should be.

I thought they had to trade for him.. But anyways, I still say it isn't a hotbed for FA to run to.. Huge name FA never list Philly as a top choice from what I see.. even if the teams have a shot at winning something..

I'll share that stuff with u when they make the finals....They never said Artest would work in L.A. too and it did

 

[Malleymal]

Did the coach say "he might run you over, flop"

 

[cuevas. PhD.]

BETTER THAN DROSE~

 

[NomarTyme]

Damn it Odom.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Refs doing work

 

[Darkman M]

Fuckin Odom lol

 

[thekad]

LovingSteam and Brandy have been Lakers-age best posters these playoffs. No question.

 

[Cloudy]

Secure the ball, Lamar. Man, the bigs cost us this game...

 

[Forceatowulf]

Rebounding is just KILLING US

SMMFH

 

[Doomsayer]

Odom finally gets a board and then proceeds to turn it over. I just don't see how the Lakers can be so inconsistent. Where is the hunger and fire?

 

[Gigglepoo]

The deal that sent him to Baltimore wasn't exactly revoked. The Ravens ended up getting compensation from both the Niners and Eagles.

Before an arbitrator could make a ruling on Owens' grievance, the NFL and the three teams involved in the controversy reached a settlement on March 16, 2004. The Ravens got their second-round pick back from San Francisco, and the 49ers in turn received a conditional fifth-round pick and defensive end Brandon Whiting from the Eagles in exchange for the rights to Owens

I guess the Ravens got nothing in the deal and the Niners got some crap from Philly. Stupid NFL.

 

[Tom Penny]

David West would be a useful fella for NO. Even if they win tonight it will be all for nothing.

 

[Blackace]

I'll share that stuff with u when they make the finals....They never said Artest would work in L.A. too and it did

lawl.. I would be a little more concerned with making the next round at this point.. I think they will make it and all that, but they aren't looking so elite out there..

 

[Ninja Scooter]

5-16

Kobe had a bad game, but he facilitated and got to the line. 5-16 is bad, but we can win if he shoots that way (it's the 9-26 games that fuck things up). We can't win if our bigs get outplayed by the opponents bigs, which is what's happening, at least on the boards.

 

[Black Mamba]

Bynum is useless too. Might as well put in Theo and Joe Smith because our bigs played like pure shit tonight. That was the game. It's our biggest advantage if we don't use it then CP3 gets to be a much bigger factor than he should be.

Bynum has played excellent help defense tonight, especially on CP3. Also leads the bigs in boards.

Look, the Lakers have given up 83 points so far despite a billion offensive rebounds. The defense has been good, but rebounding not. But the offense has been pure shit. Kobe's shooting, LO not doing anything. Bynum has been the best big. Look how LO gets a board then gets stripped.

edit: LO has 4 pts and 3 reb. His worst game of the year. Why is he out there?

 

[dream]

Gimpy? how so.

His knee is probably worse than Bynum's. And I think his thumb is broken.

 

[Cloudy]

We are losing cos we are getting KILLED on the glass. 12 offensive rebounds and it seems like they've scored after every one

 

[ClovingWestbrook]

LovingSteam and Brandy have been Lakers-age best posters these playoffs. No question.

Lol bastard. Although I have been calling them not going to the finals since December so yau for me :/

 

[sf2fanatic]

probaly from all that bowling...using that knee for the form

 

[Rodeo Clown]

In the NHL, maybe, but hockey is different because there's a hard cap and few warm market teams.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

hahahahahaa

DAT MVP DRIVE

 

[Doomsayer]

Finally some fucking defense. Good shit.

2 really shitty fucking shots. Christ.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

lol LEAVE IT TO MARCO!

 

[NomarTyme]

Finally using their fucking size... thank you bertoli.

 

[Barrage]

Bellinelli should have never been let off the bench.

 

[brianjones]

choke kobe .. that wasnt even close

 

[Blackace]

In the NHL, maybe, but hockey is different because there's a hard cap and few warm market teams.

like I said before, can't comment on hockey because I know about as much about hockey as most Heat/Laker fans know about hoops

 

[numble]

LOL Kobe

 

[Forceatowulf]

What is Gasol doing? GRAB THE REBOUND!

Fuck that one handed bullshit.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

GO INSIDE TO THE BIGS@!

GOD FUCKING DAMNIT.

 

[Black Mamba]

Kobe can't hit anything tonight. Unbelievable.

Rebounding + Kobe shooting. to lose a game when you outplay the other team in almost every facet...

 

[NomarTyme]

WTF KOBE????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

[thekad]

barely hit rim lol

 

[sf2fanatic]

F'N Reggie!!!! Stop clowning....
