What a series, the Celtics are going to have to beat the Lakers and the refs but this is the most intense Finals series in a long time.

Both his Bulls and his Lakers play intimindation-headgame ball with the best ever. Interesting how easy it is to compare Kobe with MJ and Gasol with Scottie P. I remember scoffing the first time I heard Scottie Pippen say he was "the second best" player in the NBA. Then he kinda proved it. And the coach is the same, arms folded over his chest amid his metaphysical Zen calm. Natural tripper.
Of course I'm pulling for the Celtics. Incredible how they overcame all of the chip shots they missed. They're lucky the Lakers didn't go to the Amazing Gasol more in the second half. I'm not smart enough to understand the adjustment the Celtics made to limit Gasol, but that guy is a magician with the ball in his hand down low.
Powerful move to let the bench take the 4th quarter. Hopefully, this will get the starters to up their concentration enough to put the damn ball in the basket.
Fun series to watch. Hope it goes 7. Predict Boston in 6 though. I think they figured it out last night.

The refs? If anything the calls have gone the Celtics way. A tightly called series benefits the team with the deeper bench and the Celtic bench is 100 times better than the Laker's bench. It seems like Kobe, Odom, Fisher,and Artest have rarely been on the court at the same time due to foul trouble. Farmar, Brown, and Walton have played like dogshit this series.
Doc Rivers is a titty baby by the way. He cried all the time as a player and he does the same as a coach. Lakers in 6.
The phantom 3 seconds on the Celtics a few minutes before was bad too. The way the Lakers draw fouls, no way they'll all be called.
Don't get you saying that about Rivers with the way the Lakers whine on every call or non call.
I'm really enjoying the series. I feel bad for any sports fan that is missing it. Al I can say about that is, Don't be stupid. These games are intense and amazing. You can always catch House on rerun.

Sure the players whine. Both team's players do. I am talking about Rivers during the game andafter the game. I do think that Artest said it best.. he said that if both teams are griping about the calls then they must be calling it fair. It is frustrating for both teams to have a starter called for 2 quick fouls in the first couple of minutes of the game as has happened in most of these games.
The Lakers have no answer for Big Baby off of their bench. He kills them every time he comes into the game. I still think L.A. wins game 5 in Boston and then closes it out in Los Angeles but they are going to need someone off the bench to quit sucking so bad.

Until Kobe starts dominating the 4th quarter and making game winners in the playoffs, I don't want to hear it. Kobe is a great offensive player, decent defender and definitely not the team leader Jordan was. There was no question Jordan was the leader for the Bulls. Kobe, well he can make some crazy shots...
