Kobe wouldn't have scored 6 straight points to put the Lakers up by 1 if they intentionally wanted to lose. Once Miller made that layup to go up by 5, LA would have intentionally caved after that had they wanted to lose.
I don't believe anybody in the West is that good and all the other teams have serious flaws as well..
I can MAYBE see the Mavs winning, but that's it..
I'd be shocked if a team from the East doesn't win..

They were probably smiling because they are arrogant bas s who just got embarrassed.
This isn't the only time Kobe has ever smiled after missing a game tying or game winning shot.
That pretty much sums up I don't think they tanking even though they were smiling and cracking up. Its the same type of reaction you get when you beat one of the top teams on the playground which is laugh and smile and try to play it off as no big deal. That team is filled with narcistic personalities win or lose they will have the same demeanor so I don't see why anybody should be shocked by their behavior after the game.
they just lost. if they were trying to choke it away, Bean wouldn't have scored to two baskets late in the game .......
they need to get their heads out of their asses .....
Dumb OP.
Exactly. Down by 5 points with less than a minute to go, what would have been the point of Kobe scoring 6 points in 20 seconds to take the lead?
Kobe didn't throw the game. He just missed free throws you'd expect him to make. And why would Fisher make that second free throw then?
They didn't throw the game. But at the same time, the game didn't mean much to them in the big picture because they already secured the #1 seed so they weren't all that upset with the loss. They were trying to win the game. They just came up short. And they better start playing better because they are very beatable right now.
Sons, I was at the game today..The last 15-20 seconds was some funny . I aint even mad they lost cuz I would rather they play SA..The atmosphere in the Rose Garden is just ridiculous & I think LA would have an easier time winning a game in SA if they needed too. Portland has 2 pretty good bigs in Aldridge & Camby while SA has an aging Duncan & Mcdyess. Manu would have to go ape for SA to take 4 out of 7 vs LA.
You should be mad they lost because it was to an 8th seed without its best player, at home.
This aint the eastern conference..8th seed in the West is still a 50 win team with good players...8th seed in the east aint even .500..Big deal, Roy wasnt even doin much when he was in there anyways.
Uh huh.
Lakers down by 1.
Kobe misses two free throws.
Fisher makes 1.
Tie game.
Kobe fouls a running 3 point shot.
Kobe barely moves in the last shot, Fisher was open in the corner and Gasol takes a 3 point shot.
Interesting.
someone gets it
you forgot to explain KObe's 35 footer, Sherlock.
Did he make it by mistake?
I believe they will lose to the Mavs, Denver and even Utah. Though what you said is true, the Lakers has a bigger flaw among them all. Kobe Bryant.
Kome is shooting a staggering 30% from the field for the last 2 weeks . The Lakers thought by giving him a week off his condition will improve but he's having an even worst efficiency than his 2004-2005 season. No lift and no lateral quickness on those 35,000 minute legs too, reminds me of Michael Jordan in Washington. And their bench has been non existent. So that's two major issues going into postseason. Lakers do have a slight chance to make the series compe ive. Use Kobe as the decoy and allow Bynum, Gasol and Odom frontcourt to dominate the offense. Kobe should avoid shooting 20 times and pick his spots wisely. Run the offense and establish a solid post offense to create spacing.
If Kobe decides to be a hero and force himself to average 30 in a series then Dallas, Denver and Utah will put on a clinic for the Lakers. Its going to be so embarrasing that I expect Phil Jackson will officially retire this offseason.
yah cuz players who want to make reliable shots take 35 footers.you forgot to explain KObe's 35 footer, Sherlock.
Did he make it by mistake?
he made the shot genius. so he made it by mistake??yah cuz players who want to make reliable shots take 35 footers.
Laker fans saying they threw the game are more re ed than the CIA pop spur fans.
