Lakers win, its over. Spurs win, they still have a shot.
lakers win, no way spurs will come back from 3-1 deficit
spurs win, i think they will also take game 5 by surprise, lakers will fold and im sure their fragile confidence will doom them against a defending champs and much more experienced team.
lakers may possibly win game 6 but spurs will eventually finish them at staples in 7.
agree?
Lakers win, its over. Spurs win, they still have a shot.
agreed, lakers win its over......only way we win is.......if horry doesnt shoot the ball and plays defense like big men are supposed to....game 3 looked liked horry was told...shoot the ball and we bench your sorry butt, you best play defense and help timmy you 6'10 shooting guard wanna be....id rather see big block rob or cheap shot bob, not big brick bob..........go spurs go
Only after disaster can we be resurrected.
I expect this game to be similar to game three against the Hornets. We will probably have to outscore them.
I absolutely believe this will determine the series.
Exactly
This one.
How can game 4 be decisive for both teams when the only thing it'll do for the Spurs is get them out of the hole and back to square one?
Tonight we see how the Lakers respond.
If the Spurs can win another came by 19+ points, pressure is going to be on the Lakers to win Game 5.
If the Spurs can't win tonight, I hate to say it, but we lose in 5.
I am not buying that the Spurs absolutely cannot comeback down 3-1. Spurs have won 3 in a row before including 2 on the road. Go to LA get a win, come back and win at home = then the pressure is back on LAL in game 7.
not true. Spurs could win game 5 in LA.
Remember they already won 2 elimination games this playoffs.
momentum change
Game by Game. This is the more important. Before that, Spurs can win the series.
Yeah, but Game 6 vs Hornets was in SA.
The Spurs would have to win 3 elimination games in a row if they lost tonight...
Something they have never done.
Of course, it's possible, but we're just saying it's not very likely.
Going to LA 1-3, then winning 3 straight elimination games, with 2 in LA, to take the series is beyond these Spurs, and most teams.
The Spurs were down 1-3 vs Mavs, but had HCA to pull even, then lost Game7 @ATT.
The Spurs must get to 2-2, or It's Ova.
Go Spurs Go
Think this game will be close all the way...
And yes, tonite's winner will win the series.
Agreed that it's over if Spurs lose tonight, which they won't. Game 5 is obviously huge as I can't imagine them taking two Game 7s on the road in one playoff run, but you never know.
Spurs outscore the Lakes without defense hahahahaha please thats like sayng Timberwolves making the playoffs in the west hahahaha let alone the finals
A Spurs win tonight will only mean they held serve, no more no less. Quit trying to be so philosophical about something that's so simple. If the Lakers win tonight this series for all intensive purposes, is over! As the the likelihood the Spurs beat the Lakers 3 in a row (twice at Staples) is very slim!
""intensive purposes"
lol.
if spurs lose tonight its not over yet. is the casket closed? did they kick the bucket? did they cash in thier chips? did they put the stake in thier heart?
its first team to 4 games.
i would NEVER count the spurs out until theyre out. yall spurs fans should know better than that
Game 4 is the series imo... for both.
Never count the Spurs out until they lose 4 games.
That being said LAL can afford to lose this game and not lose the series. They just need to make sure they aren't blown out. Same happened in Utah, they took Game 4 to overtime and it gave them confidence they can beat Utah on the road which they ended up doing in Game 6.
