We will see

Gasol totally dominated by KG last night. He looked like a little kid out there and was frustrated. I would have KG guard him 1 on 1 and then every step Kobe took halfcourt I would double him and rotate the D and make the other guys beat you, or make Kobe taked forced shots like he did last night.

There is a reason the Celtics were like 24-3 against the West this year. Defense Defense Defense. The Lakers can say BYE BYE to 100 points per game average in this series.

Worried isnt the right word, more like ruffled.

It won't go 7 games if the celtics shoot 38 free throws and the lakers only get 10. The officials should be shot. The celtics got every call for 3 qtrs, then the lakers got them all in the 4th as the makeup effort took place. just another reason the nba blows

 

[Bozgriz]

The inconsistency of NBA officiating is baffling. Kobe gets called for an "elbow" in the first quarter yet they allow him to get assaulted going to the rack in the 3rd...

and how about that 4 step layup in the open floor in the 4th quarter??? Even Mark Jackson called that one...

4 steps? I thought it was closer to 6! I don't know if Carl Lewis took that may steps long jumping. :tounge:

 

[cclarkblues]

Is the prediction still Lakers in 5?

 

[GRZFTBL]

Is the prediction still Lakers in 5?

Years? :laugh:


I'm never one to blame the officials or say they determined the outcome of a game, but DAMN. :crybaby:

 

[DuCharme]

I'm a Laker fan to the marrow and I've never called out the refs. Last nights game was the first time. Ridiculous.

I'm not trying to excuse the loss, the officiating just killed me last night and I felt the need to rant a touch.

<sarcasm>Makes one wonder if a ref ever had money on a game he officiated. :tounge: </sarcasm>

I still haven't lost any hope. Hell, I didnt bail when Ceballos was the man in LA, no reason to now... or ever. :thumb:

After watching Mj get a shove off of Brian Russell Jumper no call back in 1998 to win the title the lakers are getting no sympathy from me :twocents:

I watched that play a few times. Kobe didn't "elbow" anybody. Allen was hand checking Kobe on the ribs. Kobe was trying to grab Allens wrist(and did) and toss it aside. With Allen hand checking so high, of course Kobe's elbow is going to come up that high in an effort to get Allen off him. :twocents:

I will admit, without the advantage of seeing the play in slow mo, it looks like an elbow. It wasn't.
