Phil Jackson: "We'll be back on Tuesday night"

[monosylab1k]

If the Lakers were going to "flip the switch", wouldn't they have done it before going 6-9 in their last 15 and allowing Gasol's pussy to leak all over the place, Kobe to go into chucker mode, players to call out each other and Artest to go bat crazy again? Now doesn't seem like the right time.

I appreciate the optimism, but I just can't go there. I still have 30 years worth of evidence saying "They're the Lakers, we're the Mavericks".

yup

The Rangers did eliminate the Yankees. The Mavs and Lakers have historically enjoyed a similar relationship. Dallas SHOULD win this.

But you still have eyeballs, right?

I don't do predictions, Jaggy. It's my religion. I'd feel silly and pedestrian making them.

I do post mortems.

It's over though. Dallas is like Memphis against you guys:::driven, exact, relentless, dispassionate, consciousless. It's a fine job of preparation & execution by Carlisle and his charges.

Kidd is wonderful. He just is.

Christ, eppe, act like somebody GD it!!!!!!
