I actually wouldn't have minded the blowout loss and 2 OT losses if Alston was the starter and go to PG in the series, but it is so easy to see his impact on the game: from the flow of the offense, to the confidence of Howard, Hedo, and Lewis.

SVG you can't play mind games with the player that just lead you to victory the game before and lead your team to the Finals. The status quo has to remain constant unless a change is necessary such as the Heat putting Posey on Dirk the rest of the finals in '06.

Why are you so interested in knowing whether I take it up the ass or not?

Please leave your fantasies out of the discussion.

What I am saying is, could you not for a split second think about doing the same thing yourself? If you were in that situation it would not cross your mind or make you mad?

Personally I don't know if I would do what Petirus did, but I might if I felt I was getting punked. Why is that so hard for you to understand? Are you perfect or something ?

Howard needs to spend the entire summer with a guy lobbing passes to him that he catches, keeps the ball high, and shoots.

Lakers have defending him down to a science. One big to hold arms up while guard comes in and strips. Easy-peasy. Watch Duncan....he keeps it up high and makes a quick move. Of course, TD had some nice college coaching and coaching from DRob. Howard needs to get some moves or learn how to shoot FT's.

What's my record now for GD threads?

I hear Jameer will miss game 5 because doctors will have to surgically remove that 3 D-Fish slipped down his throat. Get well, Jameer.

That sig is ing cold!

Games 2 and 4 the Magic could have won, they will probably lose this series but it's hard for me to call the Lakers the better team, what the Lakers do is feed off the mistakes like a snake, I got to give them credit, they have the experience to win tight games.

, let me start the game 5 thread!

[ace3g]

the other problem is that it will probably take Alston 2 games before he regains his confidence again (even in game 2 when he got his normal minutes back he didn't play well, his shot was way off, but then returned to form in game 3). There in lies the problem, the Magic only have 1 to keep this series alive.

I'm on Pietrus side on that foul. Gasol should've never ing shot that ball up. VERY unprofessional on the part of Gasol, so of course being a compe or...Pietrus wasnt going to let Gasol rub the in.

You guys are friggen idiots. It's a 2 possesion game and a mistake or turnover gives the Magic a chance even if ever so slight. You don't hesitate to make it a 3 possesion game. It's the friggen finals!

I would think, especially on this board, most would know anything can happen in seconds late in a game. Need you be reminded of....

Oh, yeah...I remember 2004...the year the Lakers got assraped in the Finals by the Pistons.

LMAO @ someone who can't understand basic math that says 4 tenths = 0.4 calling others idiots.

[iggypop123]

15 missed ft. sounds familiar for Hedo

[iggypop123]

good old Hedo . "we lost this game because of our stupidness"

I already said I had no problem if Pietrus fouled Gasol on the dunk. Under no cir stances, in today's NBA, would I throw two closed fist punched and forearms to the back of a player while he's in the air. It's not being a tough guy. It's not helping your team. It could cost your team. Foul him for dunking the ball with 3 seconds left. Fine. But, what Pietrus did was stupid and it could cost his team.

And, no, if it were me, I wouldn't have been mad or upset at Gasol dunking the ball in that situation. I would be pissed that we just lost a game we should have won. I wouldn't worry about Gasol "rubbing it in" or "showing up my team." Not at all. I'd be worried about winning the Finals. Period.

here is my post on club spurs, earlier before the Finals started

they have a great chance of beating the Lakers, I just hope Nelson doesn't play, not only will that mess with the teams rotations, the team could lose rhythm trying to incorporate him back into the offense/defense.

Game 1 was on June 4th, I so called it, right after I saw the articles pop up that Jameer would play.

[spurscenter]

This was a typical LA championship turning point kind of game.

Ariza, Fisher.....super clutch 3's.

STFU, you were crying like a in the first half then Stern called his 3 sons at halftime

[KSeal]

Laker haters need to be on suicide watch after this one.

[spurscenter]

you lakers fans are neurotic es

[DrHouse]

[playaslk]

I dont know how you guys are defending Piet's foul. He made no play on the ball, didnt even really push Gasol, he went double-fisty-tomahawk on his back. Gasol didnt even realize there was someone behind him. Let me remind you that Odom is already on back transplant list as soon as TMac signs the papers.

Would I foul there? sure. Would I be taking closed-fisted shots to a guys lower back when he's up in the air? Sure, if i wanted to hurt him.

[IronMexican]

You guys hear about the riots in East LA? Cause the Lakers won.
