yup, yall will most likely beat us too on Sunday. We just don't have it offensively this year and we're just plain out flat most of the time and can't hit . Boston's gonna take it all this year. BOOK IT!!
That is All!

The great Suns defense holds them to their usual 11 point quarter.

PORTLAND, Ore. -- Andrew Bynum might make his highly anticipated return in a home game Sunday against San Antonio, Coach Phil Jackson said.
"There's a chance," Jackson said. "It would have to be under a situation in which he could practice on Saturday in a way that would convince me to play him on Sunday. Right now, we're certainly not counting on that. It's just really a longshot."
Bynum will need to show he can move well "in traffic" at practice, Jackson said. The next morning will also be important in determining how Bynum's knee reacts to a full practice.
Bynum would come off the bench if he played Sunday and would almost surely be limited in his minutes. He has not played since suffering a bone bruise in his left knee and a brief dislocation of the kneecap Jan. 13 against Memphis.
Bynum has not gone through a full practice yet, although he has taken turns playing one-on-one against Chris Mihm and assistant coaches Kurt Rambis and Brian Shaw.
Bynum is averaging 13.1 points, 10.2 rebounds and 2.1 blocked shots a game. He averaged 17.3 points, 12.2 rebounds and 2.3 blocked shots in six games in January before getting hurt.
The Lakers have one regular-season game after Sunday, playing host to Sacramento next Tuesday.
Either way, Jackson would like Bynum to be ready for the playoffs, especially if the Lakers draw Phoenix in the first round.
"We think that against a guy like Shaquille [O'Neal], he would be an important person to have on your team because he's got the bulk and the size to put himself out there and stop some of that bull nature that Shaq has," Jackson said.
They had another 11 point quarter? Good god the Spurs are beyond horrific on offense. It's ridiculous that a team with Manu, Parker, and Duncan can put together so many 11pt quarters.
What's funny is how much Spurs fans talked about the Shaq-trade. Shaq straight owned SAS tonight like he historically has. Duncan shriveled up like a little vagina as usual against Shaq. It must be a mental thing at this point because Shaq cannot move anything close to what he used to.
yea, we ain't winning it this year unless they can get their head out their asses. It's gotta be a mental thing........and too, they're old as . Might as well pull out the walking canes for these mother ers and while they're at it, get some for ginobili's bald spot............. these mother ers are old and they've become ed in the head too! Hey, david stern might get to have an orgasm after all folks. It just might be a Lakers vs. Celtics finalls. Boy would him and the league blow their load on that finals match up.
Lakers got a ton of problems as well. If Bynum can't make it back in time you can kiss our playoff hopes goodbye. We have turned into PHX of last year, no D all offense.
My money is on NOH or PHX making it out and getting destroyed by BOS in the Finals.
Well, that was ugly, just like the game in Utah. Great defensive first quarter, and then the lack of effort the rest of the way. For a team that has given me 3 in the last 5, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. I still think they'll be ok come playoff time...
I wouldn't say that. The Lakers can beat those teams because they have an offense that those teams can not stop. I'm not worried about Phoenix. Nash is so weak on defense Amare and Shaq will be in constant foul trouble against the lakers. N.O is a question mark but I feel the lakers could and would beat them in a seven game series.
I didn't watch the game, can someone tell me what Bowen did to piss off Amare?
No Bynum = No Rings.
Simple as that, we need the big fella back and healthy if we are gonna go anywhere.
He gave Amare an elbow to the stomach when Amare was setting a screen.
It was a pretty dirty play.
What did Amare do in retaliation? Did either get ejected?
bumping MRodgers gay threads off the front page
Bynum is a scrub.
Bowen's play was dirty but not surprising.
DD
I'll be sure to bump this thread when the SPURS WIN IT ALL. Also, Bowen's play was not dirty. Every player in teh NBA does that when a big is setting a screen in teh backcourt, you stick your forearm out to avoid the collision and contact, it's pretty simple rather than getting knocked down to the floor you use your arm as a cushion.
Come on Lakeshow....pretty crappy thread really. Take the high road.
moving screens are just as dirty.
Leave the over the hill gang alone!!!!!!!!!!!!That is All!
Idiot
Sorry, I'm not better than that. I see no reason why it is in bad taste to poke fun at the Spurs and fans. At least I'm not condemning them and saying they have no chance to win blah, blah, blah like they do when the lakers lose.
Calling them the over the hill game is just telling it like it is. They are! They should be sent out to pasture!
I have no problems with this thread.
Amare was hunched over for a while, probably hiding the fact that he was crying, then waited for his teammates to surround him before going into his "tough guy" routine trying to act like he wanted to go fight.
It didn't look that bad at all on TV, even in real time, but you could tell Bowen was trying to elbow him. Amare definitely either A)faked how hurt he really was to get Bowen a T and possibly suspended, or B) is a wussy little . Either option is believable.
Its funny because Im sure Mavs fans hate Bowen as much as anybody.
They just hate Amare more.
