And yet the Spurs have been eliminated from the playoffs yet again by the Lakers, Tiaggo Splitter is not coming to save the Spurs, Horry/Barry/Finley and the rest of your vaunted bench is probably going to retire, and Manu/Duncan just got a year older in a conference that is becoming more and more compe ive. Yea, it's a great time to be a Spurs fan.

You probably won't ever see the Spurs in the Finals in the Tim Duncan era ever again.

Horry/Barry/Finley retiring will be a good thing for the Spurs.

Spurs will be in 2009 Finals. Book it.

Shouldn't you be helping the Kobester down his 20 shots of tequila?

Bynum compared to Manu

First of all the Lakers choked big time tonight.

But NO Spur fan is in position to talk when his team choked not once, but twice in the prior series against the Lakers.

Spurs have three more recent championships than the Lakers do, so what if you have more silver trophies than us. Nobody remembers who came in 3rd, or 2nd. If the Lakers lose they'll have accomplished just what the Spurs did, nothing.

spurs are still the Lakers

Where is the Laker defense? That layup by Allen is completely inexcusable. Championship teams can shut down teams especially in the 4th, and the Lakers are not doing that at all.

I think the inexperience really showed in the 2nd half.

The Lakers have done nothing since 2002. In the same time the Spurs have three championships. At least the Spurs aren't 2-9 against one team in the Finals.

hahah suck

can't beat the east

Defense, defense, defense. The Lakers will inevitably fall short this year because they simply aren't a good enough defensive team.

They've been able to hide their weaknesses thus far because they haven't played a team with Boston's combination of strong defense and good offense. Those last two layups by Ray Allen just encapsulated it all for me, we need an anchor and enforcer in the paint to deter that kind of easy penetration.

When Bynum returns he will cover up a lot of those weaknesses on his own as he has the length, athleticism, and quickness to alter shots and deter easy penetration. It might also be a smart move to get rid of Odom in the offseason for a lockdown perimeter defender like Ron Artest, so Kobe can rest on defense and save his energy.

In short, the Lakers are close to having a championship team. A few minor tweaks in the off season and they will be right back in the Finals next year. Gotta take your lumps before you win it all.

Take away the Gasol trade and we'd be back at even
