Hornets at Lakers G5 Thread presented by Kobe's ankle and crutches

[NewJerSpur]

Give it a rest Reggie.

[NewcastleKEG]

Perhaps.

But this is just one game. And, they are going home, for game 6.

Hornets respect the Lakers too much

How pride less do you have to be to allow their 1 legged star to live in your lane like that?

That's so demoralizing. On top of that you'd probably hurt him for the next game in the process

[Venti Quattro]

I wouldn't even put Kobe back on the court. They would've closed the game out with or without him.

He's 8-13. Just taking extra shots to set him on pace for the usual 20-shot, 40% FGP

Your mother should have drank a gallon of gin and fallen down a flight of stairs when she was pregnant with you.

okay, you obviously have issues.

[NewJerSpur]

Goddamn...Kevin Harlan is really driving home the ankle story.

Seriously man, him and Reggie.

[LakerHater]

KoME travel??

[TheMACHINE]

kobe just trying to promote his shoes...

[Ghazi]

and still the staples center crowd sucks ass. Worst in the NBA I swear.

[Isitjustme?]

The Lakers shot only like 11 free throws. That means all the calls you saw that ended NO possessions or bailed out LA never happened!

Great point. LA probably would have still won this game. Doesn't change the fact the refs never gave NO a chance.

[Nathan89]

You're not color blind. Congratulations.

TheMachine is a idiot.

[Spur-Addict]

Goddamn...Kevin Harlan is really driving home the ankle story.

All damn game.

[NewJerSpur]

Damn, Paul is going to have to spoonfeed these guys to another win. Someone else is going to have to get off on their own without tanking the offense overall.

[Venti Quattro]

kobe just trying to promote his shoes...

He's actually trying to promote his ankle injury...

[redzero]

Paul better take 15+ shots on Thursday. These assholes are eating up possessions with their indecisive plays.

[TheMACHINE]

lol two GNSF's really trying to troll me. haha. They must really be new here.

[davethedope]

when did the lakers only shoot 11 fts? They're 19/24 right now

[TDfan2007]

Goddamn...Kevin Harlan is really driving home the ankle story.

Are you surprised? I can tell you right now that his sprain is obviously not that bad. If it was then he wouldn't be able to explode no matter how much "will" he has.

[NewJerSpur]

Ariza travelled.

[redzero]

What the was that, Ariza?

[Isitjustme?]

okay, you obviously have issues.

What did you think when Fisher bumped into Jack by jumping backwards and to his side at halfcourt and got a foul call?

[TheMACHINE]

when did the lakers only shoot 11 fts? They're 19/24 right now

they shot 11 free throws compared to 15 the hornets shot 10 minutes after people were ing about the refs.

[BRHornet45]

proud of my team ... 7th seed Hornets playing the 2nd seed Lakers and 3 Man officiating crew ... they hung in there as long as they could tonight

[LakerHater]

Alright, Changin this now!

[NewcastleKEG]

4-2 isn't that bad.

It's not, I predicted 6 games in the main board thread.

Lakers catch another break next round by facing another finesse team in Dallas.

Doesn't matter because not even 20+ free throws will save them in the Finals this year. The tougher style of play in the Eastern Conference will kill them in the Finals if they make it past OKC
