This game convinces me that the Lakers win over SA was nothing more than a fluke, or a result of SA not giving a shit. Miami was practically the worst team in the league over the last 5 games and the Lakers couldn't get a win.

The reliance on the 3 ball won't be what does the Spurs in if they should meet the Lakers. It's the fact that the Spurs won't be able to keep the Laker frontline off the offensive glass.

[cherylsteele]

And thus my comment that your team relies on the 3 more. duh
On sunday the Lakers shot more 3's than the Spurs, made about the same %,
over the season the Spurs avg 20 attempts per game, Laker avg 18, not much difference really, the Spurs don't rely on the much more the Lakers do, the Spurs percentage is higher 40% to 35%. They don't rely on them anymore than the Laker really, the perception is different because the Spurs are better at it. It doesn't hurt their overall fg%, they nearly identical as the Lakers, 47.5% Spurs-46.7% Lakers

[cobbler]

Wasnt my point. I dont know whats up cheese's ass but the comment was that both Miami and Spurs rely a lot on the 3 and nothing more. And that of course brought in the Laker comments. The Spurs rely on the 3 more than the Lakers and you comment only validates that. The Lakers rely more on the frontline. Nothing huge about it... just my opinion. I would think that with 2 more attempts and a much better 3pt % that would be obvious... I guess not.

Fair enough. It's just you seemed to imply that the Spurs' 3 point shooting tendencies were some kind of weakness, like say, the D'Antoni era Phoenix Suns, who can be described as a team that "lived and died by the 3."

You talk way more about the Lakers than you do your own team and your world revolves aroung HCA. :lol

I know it personally hurts you E that your guys have this amazing record this season and yet nobody, and I mean nobody with any sense, predicts them winning the ship. It's going to hurt to have that Mav season... but hey... you can always pull out the we won the HCA banner card. :lmao

2 shots a game doesn't make the difference between "fine", and "complete reliance to the extent that we would average 5 points per game if it wasn't for the 3 point arc" which Laker fans are clinging to.

The Spurs are better shooters than LA. Why wouldn't they use that weapon?

Nevermind...

My comments stand and it's my opinion the spurs and heat rely more on the 3. I didnt say it wasnt because they shoot better its a fact they do and of course you would use that advantage. Thus my post that they rely on it. Not quite seeing the argument here.

Let me ask it this way. If you took the 3 pt line away. Which team would benefit most?

I never know how a repeat felt tbqh, could be the fact that the spurs like other teams (although successfully) have beaten the lakers before playing 5 on 8.
FYI 8 is the extra three counting the refs

It could be argued that its 5 on 9 counting stern.

But hey important thing is lakers are going for their threepeat and the regular season doesnt matter and that kobe is still the black mamba/ 30% shooter. :sleep

Nope. Lakerfan, just like any other real fan I imagine, just wishes for them to get it right and for the contest to be decided on the court by the players. Certainly there were a few questionable calls down the stretch that hurt the Lakers but its not why they lost. Had they played their game properly, as with any champion, they wouldnt be at risk should a ref get a call wrong in the waning moments.

By the way... you do know that the Lakers had one of the all time negative +/- differental for fouls and FT's during last years playoff run no?

By the way... you do know that the Lakers had one of the all time negative +/- differental for fouls and FT's during last years playoff run no?

Maybe it had something to do with the fact that in every series they played one of the 10 best teams at getting to the FT line, in OKC (3rd), Utah (2nd), Phoenix (9th), and Boston (10th), while the Lakers were a team in the bottom half of the league at getting to the line?

But, and please excuse my lack of knowledge, I really don't get what you mean by "they get helped". I'd very much appreciate anything you can add that might expand on your comments for my poor sake. So far, you have clarified your "they get helped" with the much more plain and simple "Lakers get helped" and I appreciate that and all you know, stain included... but would love to hear more of your wisdom. Take your time...

Your dragging it out longer than what it should be.
Let it soak in. What would you like me to expand on? Simply put they get helped in winning the game. Fouls, trips to the free throw line. Etc.

guess it was the refs who let a team who has no inside presence grab 18 offensive rebounds as well. Those damn refs gotta learn to box out. Refs didn't cost the Lakers that game. Poor, late execution and being out-rebounded was the key. Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol each had five rebounds. Mike Miller had seven with three of the offensive end. There's your ball game.

Three Back-to-Backs since the Century turned ain't delusional, daddy-O.

Ill take this for ya Cully...

1999- 2000 was the first
2000- 2001 is a back to back.
2001- 2002 is the 2nd of the back to backs that constute the 3peat

2009 - 2010 is a back to back.


That would be 3 times the Lakers have won back to back titles math genius!


edit: Ohhhh my bad, I didn't realize you were hanging your hat on the tried and true lame start of the decade or century argument.

It is a common misconception that the year 2000 is part of the 21st Century. It is not. 2000 is the last year of the 20th Century. So, if you're talking about back-to-backs "since the Century turned", the Lakers have TWO, not three. The 1999-2000 one doesn't count, because it occurred BEFORE the turn of the Century, which occurred at midnight on January 1, 2001.

Hmmm...this also means that the Lakers (and Kobe by inclusion) don't really have a threepeat in this century. :lol
