From the rigged Kings Game 6 in 2002 to yet another freethrow fest to give "6-24" a WWE le vs the Celtics (Gasol for Kwame the true MVP), makes one ask: just how many of the Laker les have not been rigged? Any?

2002 was rigged, can't deny that much. Nothing really wrong with 2010 though, Kobe just drew a lot of contact and the C's had 2 games to finish it.
Just the 5 that put the tired old bag Merlin in the crapper.
tee, hee.
How about none were rigged, for any team. The NBA isn't championship wrestling.
Good stuff man. Horry FTW!!![]()
Duncan-- 4
Mr.6-24-- 4(if that)
Uh, uh. None of that crapola:::
Kobe: 5
tired old bag Merlin: 4
Where was TD when Kobe was going 6-24? I mean, we know he wasn't participating in the Finals. Maybe he was courtside? No? Well, was he at your crib watching the Finals? No? Well, was he getting another back tat? Maybe he went out and got another non-manly body part pierced?
So many questions...![]()
If it was rigged, it was rigged for both sides to extend the series to 7
2002 WCF
Free Throw Attempts
Game 1: 22-17 LA (LA wins)
Game 2: 38-25 Sac (Sac win)
Game 3: 35-15 Sac (Sac win) (Largest discrepancy of the series)
Game 4: 27-26 LA (LA wins)
Game 5: 33-23 Sac (Sac win)
Game 6: 40-25 LA (LA wins)
Game 7: 33-30 LA (LA wins)
Sacramento shot more FTA for the series
and dont forget the the Kings had Homecourt, and game 7 was in their house, but they choked in OT
You can't really take away a ring. A win is a win, even if it involved a shortened season or well you know. History remembers the number, not the event.
Webb got his happy on. Horry put him to his knees and lodged one right behind his ear.
BOOM! Just like that.

Seppe come ta pappy I'm going to show you how to use a computer....let us proceed...
In Game 7, Sacramento shot 16-30 from the Free throw line
Game 6 had 27 in 1 quarter. 27/12 = 2.25 FTApm which about a FT every other possession. The game was notorious for phantom calls and ignored offensive fouls committed by the Lakers. There is a lot of video evidence of the offensive fouls if you want to see, but I'm sure you seen the game.
I'm an LAL fan through and through, but nothing was normal about that game.
1. Kings got in the penalty early
2. there was like 2 bad calls
and on the inbound play, where kobe hit bibby in the face, before that bibby was holding kobe, he was grabbing him and kobe was trying to get away
so that was not a missed call, it was a foul on bibby
This will happen when you force feed the low post versus crappy low post defenders. I also recall Peja bricking some 3ptrs. They had their chance and they choked.
As far as those two bad calls - I call it home cooking. Every team gets it. Lakers just took advantage and seized the moment. The rest (NBA Finals) was history.![]()

There were 27 free throws in 1 quarter, more than the Kings in the entire game.
If it was a normal game, then Kobe should have gotten a flagrant and Shaq fouled out. It doesn't matter if he grabbed him, there should have been SOME sort of call.
The ref knew what he was seeing
There is a point where being a fan of the game will conflict with being a fan of a team. If you don't accept game 6 for what it is, you aren't a fan of the game. I'm happy LAL won, it was exciting seeing AI n Kobe dueling it out in the finals. This series had a lot of hard fought games, but it wasn't a good series if you are a fan of the game.
Leon Powe, celtics scrub in game 2 of the 2008 finals attempted 13 freethrows, the entire Lakers team attempted 10, and btw Powe only played 14 minutes

happens
A bear hug is just a foul
An elbow is a flagrant
