Lakers vs Magic

[IronMexican]

Hopefully it's an entertaining game. I expect both teams to make some shots.

[j.dizzle]

Orl gonna get hot from 3 & keep it close

[DJ Pauly D]

Go Lakers! I'm about to head out to the game. I'm waiting on Seacrest and Adam Labert to roll over here then we are all headed to Staples. We are all huge Lakers fans. There bout to be a Situation going on tonight

:rollin

[iggypop123]

bynum vs howard. both healthy should be fun

[sribb43]

Magic are garbage...Lakers roll to victory

[BadOdor]

The magic are a shit team nowdays. I know a regular season rematch of the 2 finalists from last year is supposed to be a good game, but I'm just not excited.

[namlook]

Magic are garbage...Lakers roll to victory

All teams get up for the Lakers and usually play their A games and the Magic's A game is pretty good.

[TheManFromAcme]

All teams get up for the Lakers and usually play their A games and the Magic's A game is pretty good.

Agreed. Can't take the Magic lightly.
Should be a good one though.
I like our chances if everyone shows up to play. I am looking for Lamar having a great game.

[djohn2oo8]

Depends on if Khloe gives up that wooly mammoth pussy before the game

Reminds you of when you were a kid, son?

[iggypop123]

All teams get up for the Lakers and usually play their A games and the Magic's A game is pretty good.

thats true. scrubs have career nights. its always happened with LA, but now that they are champs its even greater.

[Andrew Bynum]

Carters going to go for 48 tonight.

Maybe if he takes 60 shots.

[HarlemHeat37]

Orlando is going to break out at some point, particularly Vince, so hopefully tonight is the night..he usually plays Kobe evenly in their matchups, so we'll see how he does during a down-season..

[crc21209]

Hopefully it's an entertaining game. I expect both teams to make some shots.

Well please bring down your expectations because lately the Magic have been playing like crap. :lol

[crc21209]

Maybe if he takes 60 shots.

Same could be said for Kobe because that guy needs 30 shots to get 30 sometimes...:lol

[rhyputa]

Same could be said for Kobe because that guy needs 30 shots to get 30 sometimes...:lol

Yes true, I think he'll make his 25K tonight, 30 to go?
BTW, Manu needs 10 shots to make a 0 sometimes, impressive huh? :lol

[Andrew Bynum]

Webber "I wasn't a believer in the Magic last year and I'm not this year"

You picked them over the Lakers in the finals, assclown.

[Lp26]

I wonder if the Magic will ever realize that they are much better w/o Jameer Nelson. Their demise essentially started when they replaced Alston w/ him in the finals, and is now exacerbated by the retarded trade they made

[Chieflion]

Are these guys idiots? Get the ball to Dwight. Lewis needs to GTFO the Magic, everyone is blaming Carter and not seeing the decline of Rashard Lewis.

[iggypop123]

it was inevitable. refs took out bynum

[Chieflion]

See ya, Bynum. Weak ass.

[redzero]

That ball movement was crazy.

[TJastal]

Has Lamar Odom ever not bitched about a call that didn't go his teams' way? I'm just wonder if this has ever been witnessed...

[21_Blessings]

See ya, Bynum. Weak ass.

The only thing weak was that touch foul he was called for.

[lil_penny]

I'm not matt barnes fan, but is he the best player on the magic? Lol

[Andrew Bynum]

Has Lamar Odom ever not bitched about a call that didn't go his teams' way? I'm just wonder if this has ever been witnessed...

Has Tim Duncan ever not bitched about a call that didn't go his teams' way?

[Chieflion]

Has Tim Duncan ever not bitched about a call that didn't go his teams' way?
I see you have plenty of time to post after sitting on the bench because you got into foul trouble.

[IronMexican]

Haters gonna hate on Bynum.

[BadOdor]

Haters gonna hate on Bynum.

It's needed to balance out 21_palins sucking on bynum's wang.

[Chieflion]

Why are the Lakers hitting everything?

[lil_penny]

Shannon brown was a steal.. everygame I've seen of this dude while on the lakers has been a good one for him

[iggypop123]

bynum is afraid to even try now with the foul calls

[PGDynasty24]

Shannon Brown has been our only consistent bench player all year

[djohn2oo8]

Has Tim Duncan ever not bitched about a call that didn't go his teams' way?

has Kobe?

[Chieflion]

Dwight is beasting it out there.

[redzero]

Does Dwight think he's Tim Duncan?

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

That running hook shot Dwight shoots makes my eyeballs bleed.

[IronMexican]

It's needed to balance out 21_palins sucking on bynum's wang.

He's 22(?) And has a sky high potential. I don't mind people hyping him some.

[lil_penny]

Dwight ain't fucking around, maybe he will make some fts too lol.. we got a big man show tonight from d12 and ab17
So far

[iggypop123]

nobody can miss tonight

[BadOdor]

He's 22(?) And has a sky high potential. I don't mind people hyping him some.

Don't drink his cool aid son......franchise centers don't go out of practice to eat cold cereal because they "need energy".

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Some of the shots Bynum takes are ill-advised, but Lakers fans should hate Farmar a lot more than Bynum. By far the most selfish player on LA.

[HarlemHeat37]

SVG is really such an overrated coach, it's kind of funny..his players have way too much freedom on the court and no discipline..I understand part of the reason is that they're soft and couldn't handle it when he was always a hard-ass, but they have too much talent to play such unorganized offense..

Howard has just absolutely killed Bynum..

[HarlemHeat37]

As I say that, another stupid shot from Nelson..wow..

[milkshakeballa]

Some of the shots Bynum takes are ill-advised, but Lakers fans should hate Farmar a lot more than Bynum. By far the most selfish player on LA.


yes sir

spot on like always my friend

[iggypop123]

Some of the shots Bynum takes are ill-advised, but Lakers fans should hate Farmar a lot more than Bynum. By far the most selfish player on LA.

they have plenty of hate for him already

[Chieflion]

Dwight should never post up. He plays better facing up, he scores easier that way. Forcing him to post up is just wasting everyone's time.

[redzero]

Somebody should tell the Magic that they don't have to shoot a 3 every possession.

[Fpoonsie]

Thank CHRIST! The obligatory "Scan the LA crowd for greasy celebs" shot. I was gettin antsy.

[HarlemHeat37]

Fisher has a lot of life tonight, I guess Laker fans won't be able to shit on him for one night only..

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

The bigger question is why he plays Barnes so much. He'd be a lot better off giving Rashard most of the minutes at SF and giving Anderson/Bass the bulk of the minutes at PF. No reason to play small ball when you don't have to.

[Chieflion]

Looks like the shoulder never fully recovered.

[IronMexican]

I don't understand why Bynum never gets more touches.

[TJastal]

2 freebies from the refs. Happy birthday Ron!

[HarlemHeat37]

The bigger question is why he plays Barnes so much. He'd be a lot better off giving Rashard most of the minutes at SF and giving Anderson/Bass the bulk of the minutes at PF. No reason to play small ball when you don't have to.

Magic fans all want Bass to get more minutes, it's weird that he doesn't..he also plays the bench waaay too much, he kills the starting lineup's rhythm, which is dangerous when Nelson, VC and Lewis are all rhythm shooters/volume scorers..

[iggypop123]

I don't understand why Bynum never gets more touches.

its strange how the flow works. whenever a post player gets in foul trouble they forget about him. sometimes happens to pau but that gets more attention since he is the 2nd option and there is more sense of urgency to get him the ball.

[ElNono]

VC is damaged goods, much like his cousin... I think everyone except Ron Jeremy knew that...

[iggypop123]

VC is damaged goods, much like his cousin... I think everyone except Ron Jeremy knew that...

[HarlemHeat37]

Carter was still really good last year..he was also moving well and playing really well in preseason..I don't really know what happened..the injuries could be a legit reason, but I don't know..he can't make any shots anymore for some reason..they also don't use him as a playmaker, which is something he was very good at last year in NJ with much inferior teammates around him..

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

he also plays the bench waaay too much,


I think it's more he uses the wrong bench players. I'd have Nelson, Vince, Lewis, Anderson and Howard in the starting lineup, with Pietrus and Bass as the main players off the bench with Gortat, Barnes, and Anthony Johndon as the lesser players off the bench. JJ Redick and Jason Williams are scrubs who play way too much.

[IronMexican]

VC is damaged goods, much like his cousin... I think everyone except Ron Jeremy knew that...

People on this forum were arguing it was a good move. I never thought it was. And I'm referring to passing on Turko for VC.

[Chieflion]

People on this forum were arguing it was a good move. I never thought it was. And I'm referring to passing on Turko for VC.
The Orlando Magic knew Hedo was going to leave and they aren't going to pay too much for him. They did not trade Hedo for Carter, they traded Courtney Lee for Carter. How is that not a good move?

[HarlemHeat37]

Carter wasn't picked over Turkoglu..

They chose to keep Gortat and sign Bass instead of keeping Turkoglu since Turk wanted a lot more $ than they would have preferred..

I also don't buy the Turkoglu excuse at all..if your team relied that much on an above average player to make the NBA Finals, then that's really sad..

They have a lot more problems than Turkoglu's absence..

[21_Blessings]

I don't understand why Bynum never gets more touches.

Because the bench and Fisher chucks up every open jumper they see. Brown, Sasha, Farmar, Ammo - all guilty.

[redzero]

Is Turk still in the league. The Lakers are coasting on this scrub team.

It's a five-point game, broseph. Don't start rioting yet.

[HarlemHeat37]

I wonder if Bynum will ever learn how to play D..I think he's still scarred from when Chuck Hayes dropped 14-14 on his ass..

[ElNono]

And to be honest, Carter should give them more than Turk *IF* healthy, IMO.
The problem is that it's a huge fucking IF...

[HarlemHeat37]

Barkley's on fire tonight..saying Howard(could be) and Gasol(LOL) are better than Dirk and Duncan, and now Oscar Roberton is the 2nd best player of all-time LOL..

[Chieflion]

Barkley's on fire tonight..saying Howard(could be) and Gasol(LOL) are better than Dirk and Duncan, and now Oscar Roberton is the 2nd best player of all-time LOL..
And now he is reminding himself of the old days while he was on the Suns. He has got to be drunk.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

The Magic weren't gonna do anything with the team they had. They were a healthy Garnett away from being 2nd round fodder. Turk had a monster series against a team that couldn't guard him. That wouldn't be the case this year now that the Cavs have Anthony Parker and Jamario Moon.

[TJastal]

I think it's more he uses the wrong bench players. I'd have Nelson, Vince, Lewis, Anderson and Howard in the starting lineup, with Pietrus and Bass as the main players off the bench with Gortat, Barnes, and Anthony Johndon as the lesser players off the bench. JJ Redick and Jason Williams are scrubs who play way too much.

Agree w/ some of that, disagree with some.

Barnes is great in the starting lineup. If anything they should put a real PF in the starting lineup (Anderson) and have Lewis come off the bench.

I know 18 million for a bench player, crazy but Lewis' defense is so bad right now what can you do? I'd even play Bass ahead of him as the backup.

[iggypop123]

Barkley's on fire tonight..saying Howard(could be) and Gasol(LOL) are better than Dirk and Duncan, and now Oscar Roberton is the 2nd best player of all-time LOL..

whats wrong with the big O?

[Andrew Bynum]

Is Turk still in the league. The Lakers are coasting on this scrub team.

Than why the fuck did Kobe play 23 minutes this half.

[himat]

Only reason I root for Bynum is because he is on my fantasy team, but the guy is an underachiever. I got turned off by him last season and I still remember exactly why. He came off an injury and the Lakers were playing a nationally televised game (the only reason I was watching). The Lakers were playing fantastic because they kept getting the ball to Gasol. Then it all changed and the other team went on a 15- something run because Bynum tried to be the man and missed a bunch of shots.

He can still become good, but so far he is weak. Dwight is just manhandling him right now.

[Andrew Bynum]

Barkley's on fire tonight..saying Howard(could be) and Gasol(LOL) are better than Dirk and Duncan, and now Oscar Roberton is the 2nd best player of all-time LOL..

Almost as bad as Kenny a few weeks ago saying the Lakers have the best bench in the league :lol

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Brown, Sasha, Farmar, Ammo - all guilty.


You can't blame Shannon Brown. He's got one of the best shooting %'s on that team. I agree Bynum needs more touches but IMO Artest and Odom get more blame than Brown. Agreed that Fisher and Farmar are the biggest culprits.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Agree w/ some of that, disagree with some.

Barnes is great in the starting lineup. If anything they should put a real PF in the starting lineup (Anderson) and have Lewis come off the bench.

I know 18 million for a bench player, crazy but Lewis' defense is so bad right now what can you do? I'd even play Bass ahead of him as the backup.


Lewis would be a better defender against SF's. Matt Barnes is a chucking douche bag who can't be trusted to ever make the right decision.

[21_Blessings]

Dwight is shooting 100% on Gasol. So he's spreading the manhandle around. Bynum's second foul was a pretty gay call. The Lakers are giving Dwight no respet by giving him single-coverage.

[BadOdor]

Sons fisher is having his one good game of the season...don't go tea-bagging him now...

[HarlemHeat37]

whats wrong with the big O?

Better than Kareem, Wilt, Magic, Russell, Bird, Duncan, Shaq, Kobe, Olajuwon?..

[himat]

Dwight is shooting 100% on Gasol. So he's spreading the manhandle around. Bynum's second foul was a pretty gay call. The Lakers are giving Dwight no respet by giving him single-coverage.

Big Bird is not much of a defender though. He is very talented on offense though. I'll give you that.

[21_Blessings]

You can't blame Shannon Brown. He's got one of the best shooting %'s on that team.

He still shoots too much. Which is why he isn't getting many minutes at the 1. The offense doesn't run well through him at all as ball movement becomes somewhat stagnant.

[Chieflion]

Dwight hasn't rested at all.

[HarlemHeat37]

There's a patented Vince Carter stupid shot..

[redzero]

Dwight just called Kobe out on that patented arm flail he does after every jump shot.

[TJastal]

Dwight just called Kobe out on that patented arm flail he does after every jump shot.

I'm sure the patented Fisher flop will be coming up soon too.

[HarlemHeat37]

Why the hell would Kobe shoot that?..

[TJastal]

Lewis would be a better defender against SF's. Matt Barnes is a chucking douche bag who can't be trusted to ever make the right decision.

Your right, Barnes has just looked awful tonight.

[HarlemHeat37]

Barnes trying to be Shannon Brown there..

[I_Speak_4_Dallas_Fan]

lol lakers

[blkroadrunners]

Wow, 1 pt Magic lead...

[Banzai]

lol

[HarlemHeat37]

Vince just had a nice drive in the lane and led to a Nelson open 3..will he learn from this?..

[HarlemHeat37]

Vince just had a nice drive in the lane and led to a Nelson open 3..will he learn from this?..

nope..shoots a stupid 3 on the next possession..

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

He still shoots too much. Which is why he isn't getting many minutes at the 1. The offense doesn't run well through him at all as ball movement becomes somewhat stagnant.


I was actually wondering why he never gets minutes at the 1 so thanks for clarifying that, I just checked and as bad as Fisher has shot this season the stats say LA's offense is clearly at its best with Fisher playing.

[himat]

Bynum is so weak.:lmao

[himat]

nope..shoots a stupid 3 on the next possession..

Killed some momentum too.

[TJastal]

nope..shoots a stupid 3 on the next possession..

:lol

Vince never met a shot he didn't like

[Andrew Bynum]

lol my team

[HarlemHeat37]

This is why I don't like Bynum..such a talented player, but he's just so fucking soft..

[hitmanyr2k]

Dwight just called Kobe out on that patented arm flail he does after every jump shot.

I agree with Dwight. It's a bitch-made move and I can't believe the refs fall for that flopper shit. It's disgusting how soft the NBA is these days. It's bad enough defenders are handcuffed on the perimeter but to see jumpshooters get bailed on bullshit like that is pathetic.

[milkshakeballa]

Bynum bynum bynum.....give me bosh! il take the guarnateed 5 titles vs. the extra few i might win in bynums prime...if there is such a thing...

[I_Speak_4_Dallas_Fan]

Oh hey, another home game for LA.

[Allanon]

Does anybody actually think the Lakers are losing this game?

[HarlemHeat37]

please Vince..stop shooting 3s..just stop..drive, you can still drive..

[lil_penny]

Carter would shoot at his grandmas funeral

[Chieflion]

Does anybody actually think the Lakers are losing this game?
Me. I do. I mean I want them to lose.

[HarlemHeat37]

Law of averages catching up to Fisher from earlier..

Gortat going up soft there, dunk that..

[hitmanyr2k]

The Magic are putting on a clinic on how to miss layups.

[timtonymanu]

Does anybody actually think the Lakers are losing this game?

i still think they are winning.

[djohn2oo8]

:lol @ Gortat

[HarlemHeat37]

Artest going into Artest mode..

[redzero]

Rashard with the tip-toe 3-pointer.

[lil_penny]

Stroke it baby

[Chieflion]

67-58. Orlando leads by 9. Figures. They had to get hot sometime.

[Banzai]

lol magic.

[milkshakeballa]

Mr. Colangelo...please help us out

Anybody who says Bosh doesn't make LA better is fucking retarded....

[blkroadrunners]

Artest going into Artest mode..

:lol

[TJastal]

Pietrus! for 3...........!

[redzero]

please Vince..stop shooting 3s..just stop..drive, you can still drive..

Half-Man Half-Retired doesn't want to drive. He'll just sit back and jack up 3's until the final buzzer.

[djohn2oo8]

Artest going into Artest mode..

It gets worse in the playoffs

[Andrew Bynum]

:lmao Lakers getting face fucked, can't score a point!

[himat]

The Magic are so sweet!! I just love how many 3's they chuck up. :lol

Its different from the Suns though. The Suns were flashy but they were weak on defense. The Magic can actually play.

[Andrew Bynum]

Artest going into Artest mode..

He took like two shots, nobody else can score.

[TJastal]

Vince Carter 1-7, 3pts so far. And spurs fans are bitching about Jefferson lately, holy man.

[crc21209]

Wow the way the Magic had been playing lately I didnt see this coming at all...

[rhyputa]

ok it's not funny :depressed

[himat]

Weak call. Gortat was just fronting him..

[crc21209]

Magic settling for 3 pointers now....:td

[djohn2oo8]

Jason Williams at the point, there goes the lead

[rhyputa]

Wow the way the Magic had been playing lately I didnt see this coming at all...

they're playing the lakers:ihit

[himat]

Bad 3 pointer...

[crc21209]

Lamar Kardashian with the jumper! :lol

[himat]

Dammit Odom

[hitmanyr2k]

Kobe almost injured a kid in the first row with that last jumpshot.

[himat]

Kobe needs to become a facilitator now...:lol

[HarlemHeat37]

Orlando trying to give away the lead with their stupidity..

Kobe's supporting cast carrying him, trying to make the comeback..

Pietrus is even worse than Vince when it comes to shot selection..

[TJastal]

SVG needs a timeout to settle down his players

[timtonymanu]

Magic settling for 3 pointers now....:td

which is why they will lose. they get too comfortable with the 3.

[himat]

Come on Magic.

[HarlemHeat37]

I'm just getting ready for Gasol to flop when defending Howard down low..we haven't seen it yet, that train's never late..

[lil_penny]

Stroke it redick!

[crc21209]

Ever since White Chocolate came in the lead has gone to shit damn it! :lol

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Why does Jungle Juice Redick play?

[hitmanyr2k]

Damn, Rashard Lewis got away with an obvious travel on that one.

[Chieflion]

Jameer Nelson better check his ass back in.

[himat]

magic could get last shot.

[crc21209]

Oh Lamar don't be mad your husband..err wife will hold you tight tonight...:lol

[TJastal]

Lamar Kardashian bitching to the refs again for a call.

[himat]

Kobe can't buy a bucket right now.:lol

[ChrisRichards]

:lmao:lmao:lmao



Kome 3/15


MVP


:lol

[redzero]

Kobe, Artest, and VC shooting enough bricks to rebuild Haiti.

[HarlemHeat37]

Orlando needs something from Vince and for Nelson to continue playing decent ball to win in the 4th..Gasol's getting ready to carry his team..seriously though, Kobe will eventually make some shots..

[ChrisRichards]

Kobe will end up with 8/32 to finish with 29 pts


:lol:lol:lol

[Allanon]

Me. I do. I mean I want them to lose.

Lakers just playing with their food.

[Chieflion]

Lakers just playing with their food.
We will see when Nelson and Dwight checks back in.

[redzero]

Kobe will end up with 8/32 to finish with 29 pts


:lol:lol:lol

Vince could have that kind of game if he even cared about trying to draw contact.

[ChrisRichards]

Vince could have that kind of game if he even cared about trying to draw contact.
Wince Carter is done...

[himat]

That was great movement. Just took too long.

[crc21209]

Kobe..............ANOTHER miss!

[HarlemHeat37]

Ryan Anderson is such an idiot..

[hitmanyr2k]

Without Jameer Nelson the Magic look like grade "A" garbage :lol

[HarlemHeat37]

I think Kobe was banking on Pietrus' stupidity to draw a foul at the 3-point line instead of taking the open shot..it's a good strategy considering Pietrus' basketball IQ..

[himat]

Ryan Anderson go to the bench.

[crc21209]

Shannon Brown...too soon Jr...:lol

[KidCongo]

Odom carrying the Lakers.

[crc21209]

And Dumbo hits a 3...great.

[Chieflion]

Fools.

[redzero]

Stop shooting 3's, you fucking morons.

[I_Speak_4_Dallas_Fan]

Does Orlando have Spurs-itus? Jump shots when having lead. Bunch of scared bitches.

[HarlemHeat37]

This is what I meant earlier..SVG has no control over this team..they just come down and launch a bunch of stupid 3s, particularly the 3 White guys..so fucking stupid..

[timtonymanu]

told ya.

[21_Blessings]

attaboy Farmar

[himat]

****** Magic. They never pass it to their best player.

[iggypop123]

fisher is the best magic player tonight. when he is on the floor they lead

[Goran Dragic]

:lmao the Magic's shot selection

[blkroadrunners]

So much for the lead. Pass the ball to Howard, please...

[TJastal]

Magic could have used Bass in this last stretch of ballgame. SVG loves his 3 point shooters too much

[lil_penny]

Orlando looks like a ymca team

[HarlemHeat37]

imagine Lebron had this supporting cast..damn..

[rhyputa]

redick the best kobe defender

[Allanon]

Nothing to see here.

[Chieflion]

If they would only pass it to Dwight even every two possessions, this game wouldn't even be close.

[21_Blessings]

imagine Lebron had this supporting cast..damn..

Kobe would have won 6 titles with the Timmy's supporting cast

[rhyputa]

kobe sucks -___-

[Goran Dragic]

lol how was SVG ever a coach of the year candidate? This fag doesn't have a clue.

[HarlemHeat37]

I'm just getting ready for Gasol to flop when defending Howard down low..we haven't seen it yet, that train's never late..

[hitmanyr2k]

Here come the whistles. The Lakers will be in the penalty in no time :lol

[21_Blessings]

Farmar :toast

[KidCongo]

Kobe would have won 6 titles with the Timmy's supporting cast

Kobe mightn't have even won one.

[Goran Dragic]

Gasol flopped but Dwight Howard gave him a pass to do so by throwing his arm like that.

[blkroadrunners]

fisher is the best magic player tonight. when he is on the floor they lead

[I_Speak_4_Dallas_Fan]

lol at refs bailing these chode bloaders out.

[lil_penny]

Is this a contract year for farmar?

[ChrisRichards]

Farmar and Shannon Brown winning it for the Lakers.

[Allanon]

Is this a contract year for farmar?

Yup :lol

[rhyputa]

farmar rocks

[Ghazi]

Brown +19 Farmar +21 Fisher -8

[ChrisRichards]

Is this a contract year for farmar?
He's under contract for 2 more years.

[TJastal]

For the life of me I don't understand why Van Gundy picked Anderson over Bass. It's rough and tumble games like this that Brandon Bass would shift the balance into the magic favor.

[Allanon]

Lakers are one of the few teams that can take off two quarters and win a game.

[21_Blessings]

Is this a contract year for farmar?

Yes. But he's not as bad USC/Lakers fan makes him out to be.

[HarlemHeat37]

Kobe's supporting cast is just unbelievable..he hasn't done ANYTHING in this game, and his supporting cast got back a 9-point lead and took all the momentum while he was chucking bricks..

[PGDynasty24]

our famar and brown tandem has been destroying lately. they're quick. sorry machine needs to take a seat permanently

[Goran Dragic]

lol anyone blaming the refs. I haven't seen any bad calls tonight, Orlando has shot 27 threes while Dwight was beasting when he got touches.

[blkroadrunners]

Is this a contract year for farmar?

...and expect probably another $20M for 4-5 yrs or so just like Walton and Vujacic.

[21_Blessings]

our famar and brown tandem has been destroying lately. they're quick. sorry machine needs to take a seat permanently

Yeah. The thing about Farmar/Brown is they create steals and are great in transition. Problem is they are streaky and shoot the Lakers out of games when they're cold. Then you have games like tonight where they basically win the game, which is much rarer than than the former. I wish they would do this more often.

Sasha's jsut a faggot that sucks at basketball.

[lil_penny]

Yes. But he's not as bad USC/Lakers fan makes him out to be.

He really hasn't been as bad as people are saying this year. At least the games I've watched of him.

[crc21209]

Magic letting Dumbo take the game over...Wow...

[Allanon]

He really hasn't been as bad as people are saying this year. At least the games I've watched of him.

Farmar has actually been very good for about 2 months now.

[crc21209]

Trash Walton with the foul...:lol

Lakers winning this one with Kobe on the bench. What does that tell you?

[hitmanyr2k]

:lol @ no shots in a quarter and a half. Holy shit. He's supposed to be a franchise player?

[Goran Dragic]

And Pat Riley was criticized for getting SVG to resign and then inserting himself as coach :lol, I can't imagine how he would have coached Walker and White Chocolate in 2006.

[TJastal]

Anderson is a great player, but he duplicates Lewis' game. They absolutely need Brandon Bass' physical intangibles in games like these.

[crc21209]

Brick, brick, brick, brick, brick...

[timvp]

Are there still Laker fans out there that think LeBron has the better supporting cast? :lmao

[HarlemHeat37]

The Cavs front office should send the tape of this game to the voters for MVP..

[TJastal]

That was a clean block by Gasol.

[ChrisRichards]

Are there still Laker fans out there that think LeBron has the better supporting cast? :lmao
Thank you:toast

[Donkeybong]

it's kind of sad that gasol is defending dwight much better than bynum.

[crc21209]

:lol at that last possesion....Kobe had his hands up the whole time wanting the ball...and the role players never gave it to him...:lol

[Allanon]

Are there still Laker fans out there that think LeBron has the better supporting cast? :lmao

Shannon Brown used to play with LeBron. He looked like a scrub in Cleveland and looks legit playing with Kobe.

Kobe's cast "looks" better because they are playing with Kobe. Send them back on their own (Ariza) and they come back to earth.

[lil_penny]

Farmar has actually been very good for about 2 months now.

Yea games I've watched so far both farmar and brown have been a pretty nasty combination.. when those two are on point that bench is pretty solid

[crc21209]

Kobe with 10 of the Lakers 83 points...Wow. If LeBron had only 10 points in the 4th with 4:50 to go the Cavs would only have about 70 points and be losing by double digits..

[TJastal]

Odom "He's holding my arm!" *grabs arm for emphasis*

:lol

[Ghazi]

Kobe with 10 of the Lakers 83 points...Wow. If LeBron had only 10 points in the 4th with 4:50 to go the Cavs would only have about 70 points and be losing by double digits..

So?

[ChrisRichards]

:lol at that last possesion....Kobe had his hands up the whole time wanting the ball...and the role players never gave it to him...:lol
I saw that, Shannon Brown was like, "Kobe, tonight you're the scrub, settle down a bit son"

:lmao

[lil_penny]

Damn this magic team would probably be the most frustrating team to be a fan of.. had high hopes for these guys(I was a sucker for the vince signing) and all they've done is put their heads between their legs and fart all season

Butler became an All Star when he left the Lakers son.

[Donkeybong]

obsessed much?

[Donkeybong]

Butler became an All Star when he left the Lakers son.

lol if that is your best comeback

[Allanon]

Butler became an All Star when he left the Lakers son.

Son, he looked like he was going to be an All Star playing with Kobe. That's why Washington wanted him. He scored 5 more ppg than the year before with Kobe at 15ppg.

Kobe was pissed when Butler was traded. Everybody in LA knew Butler was a natural talent.

Not their fault Van Gundy won't play the guys who hustle like crazy and can contribute offensive rebounds and energy plays.

The only requirement to get minutes on Van Gundy's team is to chuck 3's at a low %.. if you can do that your guaranteed minutes.

[Banzai]

crazy game.

[Goran Dragic]

Wow Dwight, a legitimate post up. Well done.

[himat]

There ya go!!

So LeBron has the better supporting cast?

Oh and that effect you speak of is due to PJax, not Kobe. Kobe isn't exactly known for making his teammates better. In the non PJax Kobe era, the role players legitimately played poorly but PJax is the best there has ever been at making role players play above their heads.

[redzero]

MVP!

Brick.

[himat]

I know Magic have done good on Kobe, but to let him go one on one on Barnes??

[blkroadrunners]

MVP!

Brick.

:lol

[himat]

How many times do the Magic kill themselves??? :bang:bang:bang

[crc21209]

Khlomar fouls Nelson...no call...hmm...

[21_Blessings]

. Kobe isn't exactly known for making his teammates better.

That's where you're wrong. Badly.

[Goran Dragic]

lol Nelson, FYI you have teammates.

[hitmanyr2k]

I thought only the Spurs had that stupid "everybody clap your hands" garbage :lol

No one ever claps.

[timvp]

That's where you're wrong. Badly.

He's known for making teammates better?

[HarlemHeat37]

Lakers are so much scarier with Odom on the floor instead of Bynum..
