Lakers are back

73-65 Spurs

Twenty point lead trimmed by the Laker bench to single digits.....plus they know how to put a man under the hoop to drop buckets in point blank....if only we....

Unfortunately we don't have a Kobe, and Sheed's only Gasol, what, 25% of the time if we're lucky?

The sad part is we don't even have a Lamar Odom.

That's why we can't do what they do.

I know sad isn't .That means ifffff we get there we may be better off facing the Spurs. Right now I would take a Sasha Voulachic over Hayes

What a game.

Yeah, those PURRS sure showed them....

This series is over now....Phil Jackson is 40-0 when his teams win the first game of a playoffs. I am not sure if the Spurs can recover, but they have six more chances...

There is no way the Spurs or any defending champs should blow an 18 point lead in the middle of the third qtr??? Stern was rolling in his grave on his big couch when the Spurs had that big lead. But per his directive to all refs, the home team won again and the number 1 seeds will meet in the finals.

The Spurs panicked ..Manu choked with bad passes and bad shots. I won't be able to listen to the local radio as they will falling all over themselves as if they played...

Not sure who was more upset tonight, the people in San Antonio or the people in Salt Lake City....home of David Archaletta

and the PISSSSStons showed what? Did we even have a lead of 5 pts or more...I'll see u after game 2...but out of respect 4 u , i'll stay out the chat.




and u didnt answer my email..says a lot

I didn't get an email. PM me.

Spurs are an experience(frickin' old) team. After the grueling 7 games with the Hornets and with the 2 days off (including a day where they have sleep on the plane), fatigue has caught up with them in the 2nd half, esp the last quarter. Lakers who are well rested, hang around with them almost the whole game and finally hit them with jabs, hook and uppercuts and finish the Spurs off in the last 5 minutes of the game.

This is the luxury that the Pistons had over the Celtics in game 1. But what did we do? Instead of hammering the Celtics, we got hammered instead. Well, blame it on being rusty in Game 1. As for Game 2, no more excuses. SHOW SOME HEART & PLAY DETROIT BASKETBALL!
