LMAO. Thanks for the laugh of the week.

Please refer to Last Season, The. And "ship his ass outta here" re: Andrew Bynum, and trying to run away like a bitch from a playoff team because they weren't getting him his FOURTH championship quickly enough. And elbowing defenders in the face, etc.

His bitching is what brought the team together and is about to get him a 4th championship!

That's ironclad logic. It didn't have anything to do with the awesome play of that dude whose ass he wanted shipped out of there? Or one of the most one-sided trades in NBA history? No, it was Kobe's bitching all along. I wonder if the whole sexual assault thing was part of his master plan to get a fourth ring as well.

They haven't had Bynum for over 40 games! With or without Bynum they would still obviously be in the finals. It was an obvious one sided trade, but both teams got what they wanted out of it. Your Celtics went from bums to in the finals because of a trade for Garnett and getting Allen, so what are you b1tching about?

It's alright Ateam, your Celtics finally know how it feels to get into the Finals. It's just to bad that Garnett is going to completely disappear here in the Finals and the Celtics will be embarrassed.

The difference between the Lakers and the Celtics is that guys like Kobe and Fisher show up for big games, and guys like Garnett, Allen, and Pierce run and hide from them.

LOL, good old-fashioned **** talking. That, I enjoy, seriously. It's saying patently false things like "Kobe is a class act" that I find unbelievable. Good luck Irish.

I really disagree. I'm a big Kobe fan so me saying it can be seen as bias, but how is he not a class act? How many guys in the NBA can present themselves like Kobe does in all his interviews? In a league full of thugs and criminals, Kobe is at the top when it comes to class.

Lakers were dead tired by the middle of
the 4th. When Ray Allen went left around
Sasha V. late, he could not even move his feet.

Same with Kobe on Pierce. He fouled Pierce
at an important time because he was dead
tired, he could not move his feet.
Kobe has to work so hard. He is the
major penetrator/playmaker and has to play
on Pierce virtually
alone. Kobe is essentially still a PG.

The Celtics are playing much better help
Defense. Thats why Allen and Pierce played
big minutes and were still fresh.

No legs, no D.

And the Celtics are just more physical,
it is wearing on the Lakers late.

My take.
Lets see how the Lakers get the game
moving. They have got to take advantage
of their mobility, cause they are not going
to out wrestle the Celtics.

The bad news continues as Bill Plaschke reports Kobe left the court with 3 seconds left.

The guy is unbelievable.

What? You really think they are gunna get back up and try for a shot to extend the series to Boston? Why? If they had any champion in them, then they would have made shots in the late 3rd-4th quarter of this one. The only thing that could get their nuts back on is to win 3 in a row, and they can't do it in Boston. Just let it end. The more disgrace, the better chance they make changes to get more physical, but that isn't what beat them last night. What you saw, when the chips were down, was a team in green making shots, and the team in gold putting up brick after brick. In the 3rd quarter, Gasol missed the easiest of shots, and that was the pivotal shot of the game. The Celtics had made 2 runs at them already, and the Lakers had answered them. Honestly, I think they would have answered them a 3rd time if Gasol had just made that shot. The reason I say that is because the Celts fuel comes directly from missed shots by the opponent. You can call it what you want, but I think you take the responsibility off players like Gasol if you say that bucket he missed in the 3rd was because of defense. They just gagged on easy shots, and then they gagged on tougher shots. The Celts deserve credit for keeping the pressure on them, but the fact is the Lakers couldn't make shots. You're on your own court with a 6-10 point dwindling lead. You need to make a 3 pointer, or a couple outside shots (to match an opponent's bid .) They didn't do it. In game 2, the Celts made some shots (late) to hold off the same late bid. I don't think from a Championship standpoint it makes a difference (I don't think they were ever gunna win a game in Boston,) but this bunch has had their poor clutch shooting exposed. They made so much in the 1st half (when piling on,) and made nothing when the chips were down. It's a mistake to right this off as inexperience,or Boston defense. You can use those for reasons why the series is won, but this particular game was lost because of guys gagging on shots.

Can't you just have a take on something? I wonder if anyone else ever notices your incessant need to respond to someone else's view on stuff. If you were a songwriter, you'd be writing call and respond songs, duets etc. Don't you think your opinions are valid enough that you can give them as a stand alone item? Are they only useful (to you) if they are in response to somebody (you see as) incorrect? Are you addicted to correcting people? I just wonder if I have ever responded to a stand alone opinion you have given. You have an intense desire to correct someone, and I don't want it to seem like I mind. I guess it's o.k. for us, but we don't have to live with you.
I now honor you with the nickname "CORRECTOL"
