reminder: kobe injured his back game 3 in first quater and we still almost won?
reminder: game 4 jazz needed overtime to beat us.
remember that Lakers are 3-2 on the road. 2 of those 3 wins are close outs... granted the closeout on Denver wasnt a big deal... but, closing out Utah, in Utah... quite a feat.

Whether you accept it or not, if the Spurs managed to shoot decent from 3PT territory it would be a whole different story. I don't know what Game 2 you watched, but the SPurs were missing point blank layups and wide open jumpers, somtimes shots just don't fall down.
The Spurs are a whole different team than the Jazz. All this talk of the Lakers winning the series is all moot right now, because last time I checked they needed to win 4, not hold up homecourt. I'm sure a similar mentality was apparent when the Lakers were up 2-0 against the Jazz.
I can say with the utmost confidence that SPurs will WIN Game 3, if they don't I'll be here to eat my crow. Game 4 is the key and I say we can steal one in LA.
The lakers are a whole diffrent team than NO. i dont think its gona get any easier for Manu and u guys need him to win. we just got ariza back if u think hes struggling with sasha u guys havnt seen anything yet.
We'll just wait and find out for the series to unfold at SA.
Don't rely simply on homecourt being the reason the Spurs won. The Lakers walked into aka Salt Lake City and defeated Utah on their homecourt. The SBC Center will seem like a playground compared to that nonsense. Kobe does most of his damage on the road, anyhow. We shall see....this should be interesting.
Let me guess, E20, during the second round you thought the (resilient)Spurs were Rocky Balboa and the (invincible Chris Paul-led)Hornets were Ivan Drago.
Am I right?
I used the Rocky V comparison.
Spurs = Old, but still able to fight Rocky
Hornets = Tommy Gunn, up and coming y ass fighter.
Now it is time to use the Rocky IV compariosn
Spurs = Rocky, already deemed the loser
Lakers = Ivan Drago, steriod(cheaters) using (pau trade(cheat) was a scam) USSR villians that need to be put down by the champ!
This goes well because Pop called the Lakers the USSR.
Oh yeah:
Mickey: He's no machine, fight this guy hard. I didn't hear no bell, you're the champ, NOW GET UP ONE MORE ROUND!!!!!!!!
Goddamn that's motivational.
The Lakers haven't lost at home since the month of March.
And if there's going to be any stealing of home games, then one out of the next two seems a little more likely.
So says Mr Balboa.
I've seen it all. The Lakers cheated because the Grizzliez traded Gasol for business reasons? I guess Pop saw it first when the Lakers got Gasol. He cried like the fans are crying now. Sorry about your luck, buddy.
You're talking Game 4. You better hope the Spurs get Game 3 or the Lakers are bringing the broom!!!!
Damn Right.![]()
