try not to be a ing idiot. please.
I don't understand why that Laker fan posted the Spurs-Suns video..most of those calls looked legit to me, or at least debatable..Suns fans have really exaggerated to where people actually believe they got screwed in that series..most of the calls were legit..
Lakers-Kings is widely considered a screwjob though..not just by Kings fans, but by any NBA fan that watched the NBA at the time..I've even heard many Laker fans say that they thought something was going on during that game..
try not to be a ing idiot. please.
awww what happened did i hit a sensitive button?
It's blatantly obvious to every human being on the planet who isn't a Laker fan that Stern played GM for a day and orchestrated the completely re ed Gasol trade. but that was a switch for him, because generally he orchestrates his manipulation through "selective" officiating.
I think he had much to do with Fisher's shot being allowed to count in 2004 - a shot which took a good 2 - 2.5 seconds. Never mind that the Lakers only had 0.04 seconds to get it off.
Of course, last year the league officially admitted that the foul on Brent Barry was a blown call. That cost us another game in the Laker series.
Believe me, any time the Spurs beat the Lakers, we realize we have earned it because it's a total 5 on 8 job.
That you can count on every time.
Did odom say this?
And if he did, I wouldn't take ANY baskeball player's word when it comes to making decisions about money (see Boozer). He may be saying this now to not be a distraction to his team. I'm not saying he is Boozer, but he sure hasn't done anything to make me believe otherwise. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Also, odom smokes a lot of weed. He could just say that getting high caused him to forget what he said about resigning for less. It's an easy way out for him
I think you're making light of the fact of how good Kobe actually was in High School. EVERYBODY knew he would be great.
You don't know what you are talking about, sir.
again, you are a complete dumbass, we didn't win IN 06.
no, you're just a complete dumbass. but i'm glad you're delusional enough to think that we won a le in 06![]()

AGAIN i never said you won the le in 06 for the slow people like yourself i should have stated that victories over PHX were entirly bull
OH CMON!!!! if that was the case draft picks 1-13 would have picked him before charlotte.... if that was the case charlotte would have never traded him for a center who has a bad back and IF THAT WAS THE CASE!!! JERRY west himself would have never flown out to philly to see him play on every home game!!!
you sir do not know what you are talking about
AND STOP LIVING IN DENIAL
because PHX played excellent defense and SSOL produced championships, right?![]()
lmao. "living in denial". . . as if my life centers around this issue.
I don't really care enough about this to continue because you clearly are uninformed.
no you refuse to continue becuase you are clearly an idiot
It's funny to see these moronic hick backwater rednecks keep coming back at you after you refute their pathetic arguments point by point.
People have no idea about the relationship between Stern and the Celtics during the last 20 years. Just the fact that he never allowed this organization to take Reggie Lewis' contract out of the books gave us years of mediocrity.
In my opinion, I don't think Stern helps the Celtics. The Lakers, it's painfully obvious that he does ESPECIALLY when the guy says that his dream finals match is "Lakers vs. Lakers." Obviously he saw that last season with the Celtics vs. Lakers but more importantly, he saw money in it. I guarantee that if Bynum hadn't gotten injured last year OR if his improved play continued, the Gasol trade would have never happened because Stern would have believed that with the right push of the Stern button, the Lakers would be in the finals anyway. I just still don't get the deal with the Shaq & Kidd trades. He definitely got lucky with those trades.
Um, none of you refuted anything I had to say.
I said from the start that the lakers have more things handed to them than the Spurs, and it's absolutely true. There's no denying this, whether it was planned that way or not.
Examples:
Shaq would've never gone to LA had being this super famous athlete/movie star/icon w/ a gigantic ego never taken over his mind.
The fact that there's something like four places of treatment for Fisher's daughter medical issue in the u.s and one of them is in LA works in LA's favor.
LA wouldn't have ever gotten bryant if being in a bigmarket wasn't a priority of his.
BTW, mingus is my alternate moniker.
no im sorry your facts are so warped into your own sense of false reality thats not even funny... you make spurs homer look smarter than they already are... you just completely deny any type of factual argument about your rival to live in this fantasy land that you have pondered up. YOU SIR is what is wrong with spurs fans!!!
dont downplay the fact that the lakers are not only a better runned franchise than the rest of the league agree to the fact they are better. well managed, and coached.
saying "everything has been handed to them" is just absurd it just so happens that the owner cares enough about the team to get the best of the best players at no matter what the cost is. dont downplay the fact that he has paid for scouts, managers, private doctors, extra coaches to make this team to compete at an elite level for decades
The Lakers traded an expiring contract and 2 first round picks for Pau Gasol.
The Suns traded an expiring contract and 2 first round picks for nothing several months prior.
That's why LA is on top, not because of David Stern.
