Looks like Phil Jackson is another has-been coach who can go sit down next to Pop. Like the way he got a 24 point lead and then promptly blew it. I wonder if his players pulled the "Mutiny" ploy like Sheed and Billups did in game 6..........Our starters need to goooooooooo...

Re: NBA Finals: Lakers vs. Celtics

Notice how in crunch time, KG went right into the paint and attacked Gasol. Sheed should just watch a tape of the last 2 minutes of that game over and over. Shooting is cool too, but there are times when you need your big man to play like one.

I remember laughing my butt of when we had the 4 all stars a few years back and it was pierce that was paired with them on the court and he made mention of it to the effect that he was a piston for the day? or something like that... and saying you don't know the concept of det defense....

I take it back... with some real talent around him... he's a real good talent.... (wow i hated typing that)

It is tough. I'd written him off as a typical cash the checks and try not to worry too much kind of player.

But to be fair, it might have been tough to get highly motivated with Fatoine as your running buddy.

Re: NBA Finals: Lakers vs. Celtics

How good could the C's be if they had a stud like Hayes off the bench instead of Posey?

And he's a better 3 point shooter than Hayes which is supposed to be his specialty. I'm getting sick watching the Finals. Why can't DET get there?

Re: NBA Finals: Lakers vs. Celtics

Game six comments

Did anybody catch Kobe' post game comments...we pissed in the bed and the spot was so big, we could not even cover it with a big towel

Trevor Ariza playing like a young allstar ..(just like Lee said he could )in the first half, but literally being nailed to the bench in the second half.

Lamar Odom starting off the game 7 for 7 and then sitting on the bench for too long and not getting back in rhythm

Ray Allen waiving off the screen in the end of the game and them blowing by both Sasha and Gasoft for the game clinching layup...and playing all 48 mins..

Did anyone see Sasha V...swinging and cursing at someone at the end of the game while he was sitting on the bench?? Obviously his emotions have got the best of him

Laker radio guys are now saying that the conspiracy is in...this is Kobe's year...he wins the MVP, the gold medal and he leads the Lakers back with 3 wins to make the unbelievable come history making comeback...
