Lakers@Celtics Game 5 2010 NBA Finals Thread

[baseline bum]

Say Queensbridge!

[Chieflion]

Artest has to be labelled huge choker for his new hairstyle.

[LakerHater]

KoMe has gotta hit the weight room!

[PGDynasty24]

how is that not a jump ball? fuck these refs

[Reeko_Htown]

LOL!!! KOBE is Pissed!!

Artest is soooo fucking useless.

[resistanze]

Ariza would've made those.

[Spurologist]

Good foul from Pierce. I got a feeling Queensbridge is gonna sink these.

:rollin

[The_Dude]

Do you think Kobe will at least put some lube in Ron's butthole before he goes to town on his third eye?

[hitmanyr2k]

Kobe....verbal flops don't work when you're fighting for a rebound son.

[baseline bum]

Kobe's pissed he didn't get bailed out there.

[florige]

Wow! :lol

[LnGrrrR]

Bryant complained! Hit him with a tech!

[IronMexican]

Fucking Artest

[lefty]

how is that not a jump ball? fuck these refs
Because PP took the ball out of his hands :donkey

[DPG21920]

Artest is sooooooooooo bad now. WTF. LL's posting is the equivalent Artest's offensive game.

[Killakobe81]

Celts are shitty down the stretch we can beat these guys


Ron is really hurting us offensively ...

[florige]

Kobe's pissed he didn't get bailed out there.

He is pissed Pierce owned him.

[LakasRool4eva]

that was a foul!!!!!!!!!!!

[The_Dude]

Great play.

[Pistons < Spurs]

nice play Boston.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Game!

Holy shit what a finish from Rondo!

[Tp9gospursgo]

Great play by Rondo!

[Sisk]

very impressive

[LakerHater]

WoW!!!!!

[da_suns_fan__]

That was one of those NBA Finals promos plays we will see for fifty years!!

[LnGrrrR]

Beautiful play!!!

[Spurologist]

That's game

[Amarelooms]

horrible pass....got lucky....guess smart to just throw it deep

:elephant

[ChrisRichards]

In situations like that, Kobe should've just kept the ball and brought it up. He should know Artest is a horrible finisher and an even worst FT shooter.

[IronMexican]

Kobe's pissed he didn't get bailed out there.

I didn't see KG hold the ball

[hitmanyr2k]

Give.....me.....a.....fuckin.....break :lol What a wacky ass game.

[florige]

Holy crap!!

[cobbler]

Throwing shit on the court is extremely classless, but so is cheering for a snitching rapist..


This is a massive jump ball..if Boston gets it, another 24 seconds to kill, probably free throws..crucial..

STFU you racist liar.

[Bob Lanier]

Shades of Bird to DJ there.

[Shank]

What a cute little Lakers team.

[Killakobe81]

Fisher was trying to make a play

Artest and Odom choked there

[baseline bum]

Nice play from Pierce there. That's gonna be the series defining moment if Boston can close this out in game 6 or 7.

[Sisk]

and paul pierce has finally had his game of the series

[duncan228]

Damn, that was nice.

[ChrisRichards]

That was one of those NBA Finals promos plays we will see for fifty years!!
Yeah! Reminds me of Larry Birds pass to Dennis Johnson.

[TampaDude]

Wow...what a play by Boston!!!

[florige]

that was a foul!!!!!!!!!!!



:lol

[Capt Bringdown]

Awesome, gutsy play by the Celts.

[lefty]

Lakers not even to foul Rondo :lmao

[IronMexican]

Awful play by fish right there.

[baseline bum]

Intentional foul failure.

[hitmanyr2k]

Watch Ray miss these and complete a fucked up game.

[DPG21920]

Ray don't suck.

[The_Dude]

What the hell is Phil Jackson doing? They just let Rondo catch the ball and not foul him?

[ChrisRichards]

See ya in Game 6 bitches.

[Reeko_Htown]

Artest couldn't even foul Rondo!!! LOL

[DAF86]

lol Artest not fouling Rondo.

[Spurologist]

Game!

Holy shit what a finish from Rondo!

Tp had a similar shot in the '07 finals

[pauls931]

la not playin smart for a team that knows how to not choke in the fourth

[Amarelooms]

lol at Artest...too slow to foul Rondo....

:elephant

[IronMexican]

Fisher was trying to make a play

Artest and Odom choked there

On second thoguht, this.

[N4th4n]

:lol

Where did this guy come from? In one thread his is cementing his reputation as a huge douche bag.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

shitty D from la

[LnGrrrR]

Wow, smart thinking by Rondo, making sure he doesn't get fouled and passes off to high percentage ft shooters.

[sribb43]

Give.....me.....a.....fuckin.....break :lol What a wacky ass game.

agreed

[LakerHater]

KoMe still crying!!!!!

[lefty]

Kobe tried .......










........... something

[LakasRool4eva]

refs won this game pretty much........

[Killakobe81]

He is pissed Pierce owned him.

What gaem did THAT happen? I must of missed it ...

[Pelicans78]

Artest and Odom just aren't mentally into these games for the full 48 minutes compared to Boston's role players.

Deep down, both of these guys really aren't mentally settled into being role players and it shows in these Finals.

[Capt Bringdown]

Nice play from Pierce there. That's gonna be the series defining moment if Boston can close this out in game 6 or 7.

Yeah, that was a hell of a play. Took balls, that's for sure, Wow!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Fun game to watch. Can't wait to see Game 6.

I still think the Lakers win it all. Home crowd will do wonders for the Lakers not named Kobe.

[DPG21920]

Artest moves like Phil Jackson.

[lefty]

Did Kobe throw a prayer or a cryer ?

[hitmanyr2k]

Reggie Miller where are YOUUUUUUUUUU!!

[TampaDude]

Door not closed yet cuz KG missed one.

[Shastafarian]

refs won this game pretty much........

:lmao

[cobbler]

good game Celts and fans... Lakers outhustled AGAIN!

[IronMexican]

refs won this game pretty much........

You're an idiot if you believe this. Boston is just the better team. HCA is what could win it for LA.

[baseline bum]

If Boston wins this title, is this a bigger surprise than Houston taking it all from the 6 seed in 95? I mean, Boston just looked like shit most of the second half of the season.

[Bob Lanier]

4u8N-d3ZqEA

[florige]

How many more games would the Spurs would had won if Duncan coould shoot free throws only half as well as Garnett. lol

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Tp had a similar shot in the '07 finals

Trust me, I remember that one--the 1-on-3 breakaway with the circus shot to beat James coming from behind to block.

He had a ton in '07--most dominant showing from a PG in the Finals this decade.

[DPG21920]

I still can't see Boston winning the series, but they keep giving themselves a chance. Have to close this out. No 4 point plays.

[Amarelooms]

Artest and Odom just aren't mentally into these games for the full 48 minutes compared to Boston's role players.

Deep down, both of these guys really aren't mentally settled into being role players and it shows in these Finals.

They don't care son...at leas Odom....he's already won rings...and is getting paid millions

:elephant

[Killakobe81]

Wow, smart thinking by Rondo, making sure he doesn't get fouled and passes off to high percentage ft shooters.

Agree. Rondo played huge tonight. I still leave him to shoot . But Kobe has to pay more attention to him play 2 steps off instead of 6 the other Lakers need to be able to play man up.

[lefty]

fun game to watch. Can't wait to see game 6.

I still think the lakers win it all. Home crowd will do wonders for the lakers not named kobe.
+1

[Shank]

If Boston wins this title, is this a bigger surprise than Houston taking it all from the 6 seed in 95? I mean, Boston just looked like shit most of the second half of the season.

Plowing through Wade, LeBron, Howard and Kobe is pretty impressive.

[Tp9gospursgo]

Game.

[Reeko_Htown]

Great Finals

[sribb43]

WTF was that KoME??

[DPG21920]

Is LL gone? Where is he?

[TampaDude]

That's right, bitches!!! Celtics in 6!!!

[LakerHater]

Cant wait to hear Phil Jackson complain bout the refs!

[Capt Bringdown]

I hope I'm wrong: Lakers in 7.

[florige]

Uh-Oh Fisher looks like he wants to break out in tears again.

[sribb43]

I wondering if Fisher is crying now....

[Killakobe81]

Good game. Probably best of series even though "we"* lost.

We = Euphemism for the team I root for. I do not follishly believe that I "play" for the Lakers.

[Spurologist]

Stern will be full loaded in LA

[Killakobe81]

Great game Celts congrats Lngrrr ...

[DPG21920]

:lmao I can't believe they aired what Phil said about Boston being chokers. "They have lost more games in the 4th than anyone and they are just showing us that now". :wow

[sribb43]

KG with more profanity :lol

[hitmanyr2k]

Phil Jackson fucked up not having Bynum in there. All those fuckin rebounds LA pissed away.

[Killakobe81]

Im glad i did not drink the Koll-aid.

I SAID Lakers in 7 ...

[hitmanyr2k]

KG with more profanity :lol

I was waiting on "my nigga!!" :lol Disappointed we didn't get it.

[florige]

I hope I'm wrong: Lakers in 7.

I am confident Boston can win 1 of 2. Aside from this crappy 4th they played good. If I am Rivers I am replaying what PJ was telling his team in the huddle on how me lose games in the 4th. That would be on the bulletin board.

[N4th4n]

Im glad i did not drink the Koll-aid.

I SAID Lakers in 7 ...

So you told us 10 times in the last 5 page. This reeks of desperate self assurance.

[DPG21920]

Kool_AidMan is almost as wrong as LL. It is crazy. That guy is like a human opposite day.

[Capt Bringdown]

Celtics look like the better team at this point. Of course, that could change, but I'm very impressed by their composure and competitiveness.

Many other teams would have folded when Kobe went on his 3rd quarter rampage. And they held off Kobe and his zebra friends at the end.

Great game.

[Sisk]

I am confident Boston can win 1 of 2. Aside from this crappy 4th they played good. If I am Rivers I am replaying what PJ was telling his team in the huddle on how me lose games in the 4th. That would be on the bulletin board.

Definitely on there every day

[LnGrrrR]

Great game Celts congrats Lngrrr ...

Thanks KK, your guys recovered just a few moments too late. See you in LA!

[LakerHater]

Flakers were 17-26 from the line & 7-19 from 3
Celtics were 9-13 from the line & 3-12 from 3!


& the Celts WON! :rollin

[MavDynasty]

Does ABC mute the audio everytime someone cusses?

[hitmanyr2k]

Does ABC mute the audio everytime someone cusses?

I believe they're owned by Disney....a "family" channel.

[Spurologist]

Kobe had zero help but that could change at home....lakers D was also pathetic for major stretches especially when kobe was on fire. The series is far from over.

He who laughs last, laughs best

[florige]

Thanks KK, your guys recovered just a few moments too late. See you in LA!



I got you guys winning this Tuesday.

[MavDynasty]

Pau played like a passive pussy. Reminded me of Dirk with all the jumpshots he was taking

[Trainwreck2100]

Trust me, I remember that one--the 1-on-3 breakaway with the circus shot to beat James coming from behind to block.

He had a ton in '07--most dominant showing from a PG in the Finals this decade.

sadly it will only be remembered as an asskicking

[lefty]

Lakers have HCA

Plus Stern wants a game 7 for major audience

[Vertical]

Stern will be full loaded in LA

Homecourt advantage has nothing to do with that of course...The Celtics almost piss this one away...Only a tactical blunder by Jackson save them.
fakers in 7.

[DPG21920]

I really cannot fathom LA losing when they have this much talent and with Kobe playing well. They just seem like they can play a lesser game and still win. We will see.

[Banzai]

hope the Lakers put up a fight on Tuesday.

[DPG21920]

But it would be so great to see all of these bandwagoners gone.

[hitmanyr2k]

If the Celtics get off to a great start and put the pressure on LA to play the starters heavy minutes they're gonna be wore out by the 4th qtr playing up hill. LA just can't trust their bench right now.

[Giuseppe]

But it would be so great to see all of these bandwagoners gone.

Wouldn't change the fact the Suns broke your ass, DPG, 4-0.

[Killakobe81]

So you told us 10 times in the last 5 page. This reeks of desperate self assurance.

Can you count? ...

How about you count the ass whuppin we gave the Suns over the years?

Also this post was that Im glad I didnt join some of my fellow Lakers fans that said we would win in 5 or 6 ...


I dont need to be deperate ..of course I wanted Lakers in 6 but I picked Lakers in 7 ...you dont like what I wrote ignore it.

[florige]

Pau played like a passive pussy. Reminded me of Dirk with all the jumpshots he was taking



But normally Gasol hits those. The Celtics are rotating alot better everytime he drives to the basket.

[silverblk mystix]

Fisher's daughter is gonna be hot in like 15 years....mark my words

:elephant

...better keep kobe away...

[florige]

If the Celtics get off to a great start and put the pressure on LA to play the starters heavy minutes they're gonna be wore out by the 4th qtr playing up hill. LA just can't trust their bench right now.



Not sure if it is going to be from playing from behind, or playing ahead, but I expect Boston to play alot better in the 4th qtr.

[TampaDude]

Wouldn't change the fact the Suns broke your ass, DPG, 4-0.

Yes, the Suns swept the Spurs THIS YEAR...and that's all your sorry ass is gonna have to fall back on after the Celtics shut down the Staples Center on Tuesday night. :lol

[DPG21920]

Wouldn't change the fact the Suns broke your ass, DPG, 4-0.

I see the "law" you laid down has been broken by a few people around these parts. I would hide if I were you because you have become the whipping boy and yer team is making 4-0 look like heaven right now.

Of course people say what they want to an 0'fer around here. Seems some people think free rides are back on.

[N4th4n]

Can you count? ...

Ya cause it was giving you an exact statistic, it was an approximation, I think you mentioned it more like 16 times.

I love this move by the way. Deflect from the topic at hand because you have no true defense! Typical.

[Ghazi]

I really cannot fathom LA losing when they have this much talent and with Kobe playing well. They just seem like they can play a lesser game and still win. We will see.

Youre overrating their talent. Also, their offensive chemistry isn't ideal

[Killakobe81]

...better keep kobe away...

Childish ... but funny.

[LnGrrrR]

Not sure if it is going to be from playing from behind, or playing ahead, but I expect Boston to play alot better in the 4th qtr.

They started looking at the scoreboard. For a veteran team, they do that alot.

[Killakobe81]

I didn't numb nuts ...I said Lakers in 7

YOU tried to psycho analyze my post.

Tell me, genius where did you get your Psychology degree from?

That shithole partyschool Arizona State? or the HArvard of the dessert UofA?

Or are you blessing us with your highschool level or CCollege apptitude?

Or wait you are blessing us with your firsthand knowledge of CHAMPIONSHIP CALIBER basketball you accumulated oover the years watching the 5x Champion phoenix suns?

I dont mean to be a prick ...but dont bring a butterknife to a gun fight.

You have barely posted in here I have been here all night ...
I gave the Celts their props and criticized my team.

you want to post about the Lakers cool.

But leave me the hell alone cuz you don't know me.

[redzero]

Does ABC mute the audio everytime someone cusses?

Yep. That happened at least three times today, and every time was when KG opened his mouth.

[Jacob1983]

2007-2010 Lakers = 1988-1990 Oakland A's

[LnGrrrR]

Yep. That happened at least three times today, and every time was when KG opened his mouth.

We gon bully deez BLEEP

[Killakobe81]

2004 -2010 Mavs = the 90's Buffalo Bills ...

[baseline bum]

How many more games would the Spurs would had won if Duncan coould shoot free throws only half as well as Garnett. lol

I'll take the titles Duncan carried the Spurs to over a few free throws.

[Jacob1983]

How are the Mavs like the 1990s Bills? I don't see the comparison. The Mavs have only played in 1 Finals and they lost their only Finals appearance. The Bills lost the Super Bowl 4 years in a row. That right there is the definition of choking. The St. Louis blues lost the Stanley Cup Final 3 years in a row in the late 1960s. The Braves went to the World Series 5 times in the 1990s and only won it once in those 5 appearances.

[Killakobe81]

The Braves went to the World Series 5 times in the 1990s and only won it once in those 5 appearances.

Wouldnt dare Insult the Braves or the Blues by comparing them to the Mavs ...LOL They ACUALLY HAVE a title ...

Lakers series is not over yet ...

[Jacob1983]

Losing the championship in consecutive years is more of a choke than losing just once.

[Killakobe81]

Losing the championship in consecutive years is more of a choke than losing just once.

LOL Mavs fan the experts on ranking the levels of choking ...

Losing as #1 to #8 allows you to be the expert ...

Mavs fan giving Laker fan advice or wisdom on Champioship play is like a virgin giving sex tips to an NBA player ...

[florige]

I'll take the titles Duncan carried the Spurs to over a few free throws.



Nah I know. I was just saying. lol

[N4th4n]

This was quite an overreaction, you must be feeling emotional. I suggest Midol.

[Killakobe81]

Losing the championship in consecutive years is more of a choke than losing just once.

I'm I the only one that finds this FUCKING hilarious?!


i GUESS mAVS FAN LIKES FIRST ROUND LOSSES MORE THAN CHANCES TO WIN A TITLE

Let me drop a pearl of wisdon you have to win round 1 to get to round 2

You need to win Round 2 to get to the WCF/ECF

And you need 4 more to get to the titler and 4 more to win it all ...

I know 14 wins is as far as your scrub team has ever gotten ...BUT it is NOT impossible.

[Killakobe81]

This was quite an overreaction, you must be feeling emotional. I suggest Midol.

Now who is deflecting?

Anyways I was just bustin' balls ...

But I do find it foolish of you to psycho-analyze my post.

Stick to the game ...keep my name or my mindest out your mouth and we good.

[Killakobe81]

this was quite an overreaction, you must be feeling emotional. I suggest midol...it always works for me when im feeling bloated irritable or bitchy it is good for my yeast infections as well ...

lol

So long as we good. That is what I am most worried about.

[Jacob1983]

If the Mavs are chokers then the Lakers are just as bad if not worse. How many Finals have the Lakers lost? Aren't they like 15 for 30? If the Lakers are suppose to be the best franchise ever in NBA history then why are they only .500 in the Finals? How many times have the Lakers beat the Celtics in the Finals? Twice. How the fuck is that a rivarly? The Celtics own the Lakers in the Finals. 9 out of 11 is not a rivalry.

[Killakobe81]

So long as we good. That is what I am most worried about.

LOL ...funny Little Phoenix and their fans ...you guys are soo cute when you try to do macho things like play defense, talk shit on an internet boards or IDK win a title!!!

[baseline bum]

Youre overrating their talent. Also, their offensive chemistry isn't ideal

It was pretty ideal against everyone else.

[DPG21920]

Youre overrating their talent. Also, their offensive chemistry isn't ideal

No, I am not.

Yep. Celts have beat us. No doubt about it ...and if THEY want to talk shit they have earned that right. In fact any TITLE winning team and their fans can talk shit ...

But Mavs? LOL .

What's next Channing Tayum giving Denzel Acting lessons and talking shit cuz heis at the MTV Movie awards?

Gucci Mane challenging Jay-Z to a battle rap?

Whoppi Goldberg taking on Jessica Alba in a beauty contest?

Pick your battles son. Talks shit to OKC or someother team that has accomplished a lot less ...

Lakers have lost more Finals than yall have been to ...I dont look at that with shame that is pride son. We have chance to ring almost every other year ...


THE ONE FREAKING Chance yall had yall pissed away fucking pathetic ..almost feel sorry for you ...

[bostonguy]

Cute win. We will see what happens next. TBH, I am prepared for anything. It is going to be hard as hell to close out the defending champs in the toughest stadium to win at in the playoffs.

[bostonguy]

I kn ow LA obviously has to win game 6 but the same can be said for Boston. They don't want to go to 7 games with these guys. This is their best opportunity to win this series. If they can't seal the deal come Tuesday, it is going to get messy.

[DJ Mbenga]

i see it going this way. if the celtics dont win in 6 the lakers take game 7.

[Capt Bringdown]

Cute win. We will see what happens next. TBH, I am prepared for anything. It is going to be hard as hell to close out the defending champs in the toughest stadium to win at in the playoffs.

That's why everything for the Celts will come down to the game they let slip away.

[bostonguy]

That's why everything for the Celts will come down to the game they let slip away.

I can't call game 3 that. Celts weren't going to beat LA 4 straight times. That just wasn't going to happen. This is the game they have to win. If they don't, then this will be the game "they let slip away" if you want to use that card.
