fuck, one loss and you guys are acting like bitches, it was a off night, the lakers will come back in game 4

lol. I think it was the way they lost. Manu hitting pretty much everything he threw up. No one on the Lakers being able to hit a shot other than Kobe.

no. they have absolutely nothing on soccer players.

I'll take your word for it. I don't watch soccer. I just know that no player in the NBA ever commits a foul. The refs are always wrong. They cry like little girls every time the whistle blows.

He said 'in sports'.

I didn't like the way the Lakers lost either. The bench played poorly, but of more concern were the number of open looks blown by Odom and especially Gasol.

Yes, the Spurs hit a couple of buzzer-beaters following good defensive sequences by the Lakers, but even still, the Lakers missed all their shots and were piss-poor from the free-throw line. Go 13-for-17 instead of 8-for-17 and then you're at least in the conversation, but shooting that poorly from the line is no way to steal one on the road.

Sorry, Spurs - you don't get to cry about that final play when the officials have given you favorable calls all night.

Except for the last minute, great game by the Lakers. Let's close 'em out in 5 and get some much-needed rest.

The Laker fans seem to be whining about the calls and everything else. As usual

Lakers won it in the first half. Great game by the roll players. Congrats to the Lake Show.

It sucks but we move on.

Props to you Quick. You were right. I didn't think the Lakers would get one in SA. Great win. The Black Mamba will be ready in game 5.

the spurs got jobbed

but they can still win.

Dos Equis · « **Reply #389 on:** May 28, 2008, 06:49:03 PM »

They're still in it. If any team can come back, it's the Spurs.

The refs sucked for both sides. Kobe took 29 shots and did not get to the free thrown line. Fish's shot hit the rim, but they failed to reset the 24 second clock with about 5 seconds to go.

Exactly.

Given the way the officiating went the entire game, I don't want to hear jack about that final play. Was it a foul? Yes. Do Spurs fans have *any* room to complain? Hell fucking no.

Hardly. The blown Fisher call the play before. Kobe 29 shots and no free throws. The Spurs deserved to lose and to their credit, they all admitted it.

interesting, lakers could have had a blowout yesterday night. celtics could have had a blowout tonight. Reffing is questionable in these games.

what was the lines for the last two games?

CARTEL · « **Reply #393 on:** May 28, 2008, 09:10:26 PM »

The reason Kobe isn't getting to the line is because the Spurs are giving him open jump shots and he is taking them like he should.

The Spurs are going out of their way to not send him to the line. This has been stated by everybody including Kobe and the Spurs.

Why are you guys not hip to this info?

Stop complaining about calls already. That's the cowards way out. Everybody gets screwed multiple times in every game by crappy calls.

Celtics opened at -5.5 and it moved to -6 by gametime.

I think the Spurs were 4-point favorites on Tuesday.

The Lakers are favored by 8 tonite.
