Thank you for all the great pick and rolls.... One of the greatest duo's to have ever, as TM would say, "Laced up" .......
Great players take over games. Say what you like about Kobe, but he has just taken over. On yeah, I forgot, the Lakers need the refs in their pocket to win games... right?
In the past crucial games ( last year playoff agaisnt SAC, game 6 and 7 ) have swung the Lakers way because of fucked up ref calls,,, so yes you can say that.....
Congratulations to the Lakers. They took six games to take out a team that had never gotten past the first round. Quite an accomplishment. I never saw Chicago, Boston, the great Laker teams of old, etc. celebrate a first round series victory, after they had won multiple championships, the way the Lakers did last night.
The borrom line is this....they lose 4-2 .....and they had HOME COURT!!! C-mon...you HAVE to at least get to game 7 if you have home court advantage.....Once again though, KG has shown that he is AWESOME and the MOST VALUABLE PLAYER in the regular season....Yawn.....who cares if you score 40 against the clippers???? You gotta lead you team when it counts....I will say it again: SHAQ is, SHould be and HAS ben the MVP in the NBA for the past 5 years....It's a joke to give it to any other player....put Shaq on the wolves and take of garnett and they'd be the team to beat..at least they'd get past the first round
No question, Shaq and Garnett would beat Kobe and the Wolves scrubs. Shaq is the MVP of his own team, and the league.
That's because in the 80's it was a THREE game format and in the 90's it was FIVE game format....now it's SEVEN....its a much bigger accomplishment if you think about it.
It is an accomplishment for the 3 time world champions to beat a team that had never been out of the first round?
