thoughts on West handing the WCF trophy to the lakers? I got a chuckle outta that. As far as I'm concerned, that was the finals, although, I have to say, I would like nothing more than kobe hitting some game winning shots in boston.

[Gnnr]

I'm sort of hoping Detroit wins because something tells me that'd make for a more interesting series.

[infinitexsound]

akademik game 6?????? wth didnt happend so.......... what you stated wasn't the outcome... there wasn't any form of betting but can i ask for 20 jumping jacks? if thats cool??? LOL

kobe got robbed of fouls thats all i gotta say about that last game... but hes MVP so he can deal with it...

[Xandy Boosts]

He called 6. I called 4. Avg is 5, works for me! haha

Loved it when Kobe said Jerry West came up to him and said to "Kick their (Spurs) ass!" haha

[Phlip]

I called 6 initially, I changed that to 5 after games 1 and 2

[infinitexsound]

well doesnt matter i just want pics of akademik... doing it on a honor system...... celtics and lakers... championship lakers for the win...

[Xandy Boosts]

I'm so excited right now I can't sleep. I'm up lurking LG and Club Lakers reading quotes and checkin articles out everywhere. Here's another funny quote I just read about

Parker to Kobe TWICE
"Where'd you learn to play like that?"

hahaha

Muahahaha. Signed. Sealed. Delivered EARLY. lol

Lakers vs Pistons = Lakers in 5
Lakers vs Celtics = Lakers in 5

I really, really, really hope in 5, because I want to
riot in LA (even though there probably will be one
regardless).

Sounds like the Chargers when they lost to the Pats...

I dont see whats the big fucking deal, the Spurs were walking off the court themselves when he took the shot. What the fuck was the difference?!?! :ghey:

You lost, take it like a man, go enjoy your vacation and try again next year...

[ALTRNTV]

^
He's a Laker fan though. lol

The thing I'm impressed by the Lakers is that
they didn't lose their poise, even though they're
a young team. They didn't get rattled after being
down 18, and fought back and won.

Spurs, how does it feel losing 2 games after being up
20 and 18?

[yudalicious]

the sasha 3 was kinda meh. disrespectful imo, especially if the spurs were already walking off the court. but, it's not that big of a deal and I don't tihnk anyone's gonna dwell on it.

so apparently certain fans on a certain celtics board think they match up better with the lakers than the spurs, and that they will beat the lakers, citing the fact that they have a good record against the west in the regular season. I think they're full of it, as far as I'm concerned, lakers/spurs was the matchup of the 2 best teams.

[SimpleS14]

Celtics need to win tonight before the fans REALLY have something to talk about.

I want to see a Lakers vs. Celtics final and watch all the flashbacks during timeouts that they will air.

Both teams are fairly 'new' and built the team cohesion through out the season. As much as I like the Celtics, I want the Lakers to win it all.

[stiizy]

LAKERS all day baby!!!!! we got this all wrapped up this year Finals here we come!!!!

Hahaha are you fucking kidding me? Spurs got blown out THREE times in the NO series, so this doesn't feel any worse. They just ran out of gas in the end and their age caught up to them. Yeah it sucks that they didn't make it into the finals with a chance to repeat, but you can't win every year. Besides, being down 20 or 30 doesn't mean anything when you have Kobe, the most talented player in the world, on your team. Plus Phil owned the shit out of Pop AGAIN, despite the extra freethrow comment.

I'm damn proud the Spurs made it to the WCF this year with the way the West was stacked.

Ya'll still have 4 more games to go, you should celebrate after that.

[Dutchmalmiss]

Yay for the Lakers man, but wtf was Kobe thinking after the game?!?

His wife better have been with him.

If it where Lakers/Pistons I think that it will take 6 to win (for either side). If its Lakers/Celtics, I think the Lakers will take it in 5. Ugh. The more I think of the Celtics advancing to the Finals the more I think it'll be suck. Its no fun watching if its no challenge. I hope I'm wrong, but I think the Celts are running out of steam. They had two game 7's already, and if they lose tonight its going to be another one they'll have to face.

I think having a large lead and then losing it feels
a lot worse than just being blown out, but that's
just me. That means working so hard to build it, only
to see it disappear.
