Guest jimmy no nose Report post Posted May 11, 2003 How do you miss the inbound pass at the biggest point of the game? They could have tied it right there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620 Report post Posted May 11, 2003 LMAO!!! We won! But I will be the first to admit it was luck. They have to play better then that Tuesday if they want to win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted May 11, 2003 There is no excuse to screw up the inbounds play period and waiting 10 secs to foul was just as stupid. Phil Jackson got to the refs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620 Report post Posted May 11, 2003 Phil Jackson got to the refs Good excuse. To bad there were more shit calls on the Lakers then the Spurs today. So I guess you are saying he got the refs to call bad calls on his own team. That's smart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted May 11, 2003 too many offensive fouls Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620 Report post Posted May 11, 2003 Agreed. Bullshit offensive calls at that. Like when Fisher got called for the block but had been in the same position for at least 2 seconds before he got hit. Then when Kobe picked up his fourth, Robinson was still sliding into position when Kobe got the whistle. The inconsistancy continues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest godthedog Report post Posted May 11, 2003 the spurs choked, plain & simple. there was no excuse at all for that sloppy, SHITTY passing. horrible climax to what was building up to be an amazing game. this really looked to be something that separated the men from the boys, & they just don't look ready for a championship.

Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Report post Posted May 11, 2003 The Lakers handled their business in LA, all they have to do is take a game in San Antonio and they can win this series. The Spurs will look like bitches if they lose this series after sweeping the Lakers in the regular series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620 Report post Posted May 12, 2003 If Iverson was Kobe or Carter's size he'd be basically unstoppable. He's just too damn small, but what he can do on the court is unbelievable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Report post Posted May 12, 2003 He acts like a primadonna and a prick sometimes, but on the bright side he does play hard (when he's not whining at the officials). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Well the Kings fought to stay alive. Down 3-1 going back to Dallas would be suicide. Kings will have to win one more on the road if they want to win the series though. I think they can still take out Dallas, but will fall in the Western Conference Finals to either Lakers/Spurs, without the help of Webber. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ripper Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Well, the Lakers won by doing what they had to 1: Shaq (gasp) adjusted to the calls and played BASKETBALL instead of football and has been far more effective. 2: they ACTUALLY played Defense. 3: Got the Spurs frount line in foul trouble...albeit suspicously. David Robinson was robbed in game 4...bottom line. Not that he would have made that much of a difference...but I think the Spurs would have survived without Duncan better(who committed everyone of the fouls called on him) If David was still in the game. I do feel that alot of what should have been no calls were called Defensive fouls on the Spurs though...Once again..wouldn't have made a difference . The difference was the fact that the SPurs could get nothing done without Duncan. If he stays out of foul trouble, the Spurs win game 4 going away. But they didn't. I still don't think that the Lakers can beat this team, but if they continue to get Duncan in foul trouble, they will do alright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Polish_Rifle Report post Posted May 12, 2003 I missed the game so I'm not going to whine about the refs. I will say that this series much like the Kings/Mavs will be very close and entertaining. I hope Phillip is ok and gets well soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tony149 Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Being a Spurs fan, watching the Lakers/Spurs series gives me flashbacks to the '95 West conference finals between the Spurs/Rockets, where the road team won all the games till the end, when Houston finally won at home. The difference now: the home teams are winning. And the games have been like the first two: games 1 & 4 down to the wire; 2 & 3 blow outs. The Kings/Mavs series doesn't surprise me. I was expecting those two to split in Sac. Dallas wins the next won, but I'm not sure about the series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Polish_Rifle Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Sac should use Hedo more. He is very versatile and lanky which is what they need to at least try and contain Dirk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Report post Posted May 12, 2003 I read the boxscore for last nights Mavs/Kings game and was surprised to see that none of the Mavs big three reached 20 points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Polish_Rifle Report post Posted May 12, 2003 They were all off with the exception of Finley who seemed like he still had some energy and was trying to force things too much. This is really anybody's series since both teams like to go on the break and jack up shots whenever they touch the ball. Should be very entertaining. I hope Antoine breaks out of his slump and the C's win at least one game in the series. Pierce needs some help desperately and I think the answer is the Kandiman! They could also use a legit PG.

Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Do the Celtics have the cap room to sign any free agents? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ripper Report post Posted May 12, 2003 They better the hell so. Nobody on that team should be getting any real money outside of Pierce and Walker...and this is the last year of Bakers contract also so that will clear up some room...unless they are looking to resign him...heh..

Guest Polish_Rifle Report post Posted May 12, 2003 I don't think this is Baker's last year. I believe he still has a couple of years left at an unbelievably high amount which is why the trade received so much hoopla since Kenny Anderson was in the last year of his $9 million contract.

Guest Lethargic Report post Posted May 12, 2003 Don't the Celtics have new owners now? I remember last year they wouldn't resign Rodney Rogers because they didn't want to pay the luxury tax. Maybe if they have new owners, they'll be willing to pay a little more. As far as the Spurs/Lakers. I'll believe this Laker run is for real when they can do it in San Antonio. Remember, Spurs don't have to win a single game in LA. Lakers HAVE to win in San Antonio. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heh, try 3 or 4 more years left at $40 million total (I think). The only way they can drop Vin is to buy him out. Antoine's finally woke up, I see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
