Seriously though it's over. The Celtics never give up on a game. If the Lakers were down that many they would have folded. The fat lady was in the building last night.

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.

And they could get something for him
if he is packaged... very easily. I would
get rid of Sasha V. with Odom. His stock
is still fairly
high.
He may be another mental problem.
It looks to me like Jackson wants to
kick Shasha's teeth in.

May the Pagan Gods help you...

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"

I think my favorite word when hearing Mark Jackson speak is "stremf"
