Damn Chuck, that shirt is kind of young.

lol chucks shirt

Belinelli gets a bloodied nose, refs turn the other cheek

Landry gets slammed in the face and loses his contact, refs turn the other cheek

Kobe shoots a fade away jump shot, refs put him at the line

sons the first 4 games of the series were relatively fairly called games. however in this game you can tell the NBA is stepping in to ensure the Lakers have extra help. after all at the end of the day, its all about $$$$$ and the Lakers bring in the TV ratings. the NBA can't afford to not have them go deep in the playoffs.

You must be new to the NBA

2002 Western Conference Finals, Fisher's 0.4 shot & 2010 Finals Game 7


Biggest frauds in my life of watching the NBA

[Jelloisjigglin]

everything is rigged for Lakers. It's just not fair.

[Nathan89]

Turnover and Rebounds need to improve for Hornets.

[davethedope]

I almost didn't come back to watch this season after game 7 last year. I have no love
for the Celtics this year, but that was a disgrace. They should've won the championship.

2/10 on that kitchen analogy reggie

[Capt Bringdown]

He was going to play regardless of the diagnosis, so the only reason to refuse the tests was because he knew they would show he's perfectly fine.

The common denominator is PJ.
He seems to know something the rest of the league doesn't about media pranks to fire up his team/superstars and humiliate opponents.
It's annoying to all but Laker fans, but it seems to work at some weird level.

[Spur-Addict]

Landry just got hacked.

Bad shot Trev

[InRareForm]

landry got hacked, fisher making 30 footers.

game over

[redzero]

Long 2's won't get the job done.

[Venti Quattro]

I just noticed that the Lakers are wearing black sneaks. What gives?

[NewJerSpur]

Tough for a big too double Kobe AND get back to help on his man.

[it's me]

game over ... no call to Landry to start...... and that is it

[Capt Bringdown]

To be fair, Grizz tanked to face you. They are much better than a 8 seed

Right now, Grizz would beat the Lakers too

I doubt that. Memphis guards might have a field day against Fisher, however Artest might have something to say about that.

And the Laker frontline is at another level, obviously. That's the key.
Memphis is attacking a Spurs weakness that the Lakers don't have.

[NewJerSpur]

Landry can't do much against Bynum, but he needs to go to work on Pau imo.

[NewcastleKEG]

LOL

wtf did Ron get an award for? Not killing anyone on the court?

[Banzai]

Monty getting his wish.

[Capt Bringdown]

Lakers outscored the Hornets 38 to 23 since the 1st quarter.

[NewJerSpur]

Nice block by Bynum.

[Spur-Addict]

Pressure is on N.O.
