How did ORL lose that game?

[timvp]

it was a gift just like the kg gift. just like the billups gift

Give it up.

Jerry West salary dumped an All-Star bigman to his favorite team.

Let it go.

Stop whining.

Accept facts.

Win the championship.

Celebrate.

Try to do it again.

dude..ur talking bout the smallest freaking non call...people outside this thread arnt even talking bout a "goaltending" call. Its not like it was like the "foul" that Fisher did on barry...thats a big deal.

That was my whole argument. That Laker fans keep bringing up the Howard goaltend in the 1st half as the same thing.

It is not, because one was at the end of the game. Why would Fish's foul be a bigger deal than any other foul throughout the game by that logic? That is all I am saying.

People make it seem like I am blaming the refs for the loss, when I clearly said that is not the case. People make a big deal because it is me and I give dumb laker fans a hard time when they act dumb. Which they do often.

There are very few good laker fans on the board and many people would agree with that.

I love Jerry...and Stern

from my many years of being an NBA fan(sadly), I've learned to argue with Laker fans in a certain way..

for example..

I named 3 huge calls that went in their favor..CONSECUTIVELY..down the stretch in the 4th quarter..none of them being debatable..I named them..their argument in reply is naming some 1 or 2 QUESTIONABLE calls that aren't obvious at all, and happened in the 1st or 2nd quarter..they'll also make general statements like "Howard gets away with stuff"..

how come u never argue in our favor...or does the Lakers never get screwed by refs?

[DPG21920]

I have argued in the Lakers favor many times. Their fans are a different story. DoK is making a mountain out of a mole hill. I only argue with Laker fans at length in very select threads and I never start threads provoking anyone.

why would I argue in your favor? I'm not a Lakers fan, obviously..

I'm not just "hating" on the Lakers..my argument was legit, I didn't say anything outrageous..

I totally agree. Laker fans need to calm down and be respectful with their disagreements. It's not hard if you try.

haha..dude...you must be new here.

[BUMP]

at delusional LakerFan not thinking that Jerry "I will always be a Laker" West didn't giftwrap them a championship

[timvp]

Those were legit trades. Gasol was a gift.

[quickerblade]

The live and die via the 3 point shot is not going to work for s sake, jesus, Im all for the lakers, but why is the Magic so en stupid and sticking with the same plan they lost with in game 1..not game 2

[iggypop123]

Those were legit trades. Gasol was a gift.

no way those are legit.

you know, i dont remember from a year ago, but were you ing about Boston getting a gift by getting KG and Ray?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I dunno, maybe because it got them to the Finals?

They'll get to Orlando, the refs will be on their side, and they'll get the next couple at home.

[iggypop123]

cause lewis lived with it for a while but other players didnt get the memo

that works against mo williams and delonte west, not the tall ass lakers, fair enough it got them here, but its obviously not working, its failing

[timvp]

no way those are legit.

Have you watched Al Jefferson play basketball?

Stop trying to pretend.

Win the championship.

Celebrate.

Thank Jerry West.

Try to repeat.

[HarlemHeat37]

I can't believe somebody's argument of the Gasol trade was comparing it to the Celtics having to give up a guy that could be an all-star as soon as last year, and the Nuggets giving up Allen Iverson..

I don't have a problem with the actual Gasol trade, it was obviously a salary dump..LA gave up a good amount when you consider that it's a salary dump..but there's no way any other team would have received a gift like that, and Jerry West clearly had a part in it..not a coincidence that it was soon after Kobe was crying about his teammates..

You have a rep for being a Laker hater from the thousands of trash talking posts you've made about them on Real GM. You seem mellower on this forum.

[JamStone]

The KG trade was a gift too. Not as much of a gift as Gasol but still a gift. It got the Celtics a le and the Wolves stayed in the lottery. Boston didn't even give up that #5 pick for KG cuz they already traded it for Allen. KG was absolutely a gift.

Al Jefferson.

Nice try

[IronMexican]

It's a gift I'll gladly take.
