Last years team was pretty damn good, Serious. The best since Shaq left. The big difference is Luke Walton took a huge step back this year after looking like he was going to finally break out, and Artest is playing like an old man now. He has brief flashes of his old self defensively, but he has lost the ability to drive the lane like he used to.

Also Serious, are you one of those people who believe Pau is better than Dirk?
 
fucking Luke Walton

looks like my brother and I plan to have some growlers of beer and watch the Boston VS Miami game. should be lots of fun
 
Pau needs to see Artest's psychiatrist beacuse wtf is wrong with him? He's playing with no confidence and his problems haven't gone away since the regular season. It's like he's totally okay with shrinking into a shadow of his former self for some reason.

Well, he had a decent game. 15/11 isn't bad. He also had some nice passes. Dirk has become a decent defender, and coupled with Chandler in the middle, Pau won't have a great series. I can see him going for 10-18 a game with 7-13 rebounds. Not bad, but not the 18 and 9 you have come to expect night in and night out.

And I know it's all been said about Kobe before, but my god. He's still the best in the game undoubtedly. I mean.. I've seen him live a few times, and he created one of my fondest sports memory to date, but he is still just unbelievable. Didn't he beat God in a one on one? Yeah, and he spotted God 9 points and still won.

P.S. The memory is the 03 or 04 finals vs Detroit. It was my first championship game of any sort to go to. Game three. The Pistons are about to go up 3-0. Lakers down 96-92. With 2.7 left in the forth quarter he was being double teamed double teamed by Tayshaun Prince and Antonio Mcdyess and absolutely blanketed. He takes an insane 24 foot three pointer completely off balance, gets knocked on his ass, drains the three like the cold blooded fucker he is, and one. Game tied and overtime.

Lakers go on to win with Kobe scoring something like 10 in overtime. It was the only game they won that Finals Series. That was the play that got me into basketball.
 
LeBron James for the motherfucking win tonight.


Time to break the hearts of Boston fans on their own turf. It stings a bit more in person.
 
lololol GG Bawwston. :)


Wtf was Doc thinking when Boston started running their offense through big baby? lmao, they went through him for most of the middle 4th and dug themselves in a hole. Where the hell was KG and PP?

Doc loves his crack. He was hitting a 50 rock just before the third started. That's why he went to Davis so much. After the third ended he went back to baseline and remembered he has Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, all too late.

OKC vs Mavs for the WCF would be a great series. If LA gets past Dallas I think it won't be a very good series. A bad match up for OKC. Then again, Perkins can handle his own. He's no Bynum, but he won't be made to look like a fool. KD vs Kobe would be awesome though. First super star to 50 wins.
 
Big Baby was bricking all over the place! and Ray Ray had a bad shooting night for once in the playoffs

speaking of making shots in the playoffs, I wish LBJ played like he did against Boston last night, in the playoffs, against Boston when he was with the Cavs. I will never forget how LBJ truly gave up against Boston last year in the playoffs

so it goes

Spurs are boring to watch? wuttttt

All those guys are so unselfish and play great team ball. The offensive execution is beautiful to watch as a fan of the game and they play great team defense. Those who actually play the game of basketball appreciate the Spurs.

Cha-ching
 
beautiful? hardly, in my opinion. if I wanted to see the usage of such a technicianed and boring offense, I would watch college basketball

GTFO Spurs, ya'll got seriously outplayed in that first round
 
lmao Ainge @ the game last night.

Gasol and Bynum have to show up today.

Take a look at this clip for Monday's game and see how terrible Paula is on both ends. Commits multiple turnovers and is awful at defense. 0:40, look at how he defends that PnP. It seems like he's just satisfied with those 2 championships and doesn't care about winning anymore. You can tell by his body language, dude is sleep walking out there most of the time.

Just frustrating to watch, and I hope PJax starts Lamar instead.

YouTube - Gasoft wanted the triple double...





I bet this series will be tied 2-2, going back to Game 5 in LA. Then the Lake Show should take care of business in 6.
 
Watching this game, I'm getting the same vibe from Phil that I did in 2004 where he didn't seem to really give a fuck and got massively out-coached by Larry Brown. His lack of adjustments are mind-boggling.
 
Now Serious, will you please get off your high horse, stop making excuses, and give a smidgen of respect to Dallas? They have simply out played your team. Almost every post you make is completely bias and dismissive to almost everything everyone else has posted. This is a different Mavericks. They have swagger. They have defense.

You said this is the best Lakers team possibly ever? Simply absurd. Refs called a fair game again. Pau had a better game like you said he needed, but the Dallas defense and Dirk were able to get him into foul trouble so he can't play as aggressively. Bynum has had a great game like you said he needed. Odom has been ok. Kobe has been ok. What is there to point to other than Dallas being a different type of team. Tough, defensive minded, and unflappable. Oh, and did I mention Dirk? Great. Clutch. Unguardable.

Go Mavs?
 
Lakers fear JJ Barea!

The Lakers and their fans simply are in denial that these Mavs actually showed up on the road and have won 2 games going back to Dallas. LA sleepwalked through part of the regular season and it wasnt a fluke. Dont get me wrong, they are a very good team but just like Boston, they are not feared anymore. I'm curious to watch how the Cs and Lakers play in game 3 of their respective series.
 
dude, boston is down 0-2, LA is down 0-2

i feel like im living in the twilight zone. Dallas is Deeeeeeep. kobe is the only one who looks like he has any real fight or grit left in him. hopefully that will change in game 3. time will tell.

pumped for the okc mephis game tomorrow
 
Shannon and Blake are so retarded that they can't even make a simple entry pass to Bynum. Why did they stop feeding him? He was matching Dirk bucket for bucket. Disgusting.

If a white guy is going to play and just make passes and brick some shots, put Luke Walton in the game. At least he can post a midget up and rebound.

I actually hope Artest gets suspended. At least Matt will attack the basket and play with the same energy on the boards. And he's not bricking as many wide open 3's. It's not like we need him to shut down a perimeter player, laker D has been pretty good the past 2 games. Just some horrible execution in game 1 and horrible shooting in game 2.

The Lakers fear Tyson Chandler and Dirk. And with good reason. JJ has been a DFW fan favorite for a couple years now. If he was a starter he could average 12 PPG and 6-9 APG. But not good enough defense to start. His only real flaw. This Mavericks team has the best bench I have seen in over a decade. JET is a beast and a clutch player. Marion is still great defensively and solid on the glass and scoring. Plus Peja and Haywood and JJ and Roddy B. That is one hell of a bench. Mavericks are the only playoff team that can go 11-12 deep and be as good as other teams only going 8-9 deep.

Lakers aren't dead yet, so this isn't over. I imagine they will take one in Dallas, probably game 4, and game 5 in LA maybe even. But Dallas will win in 6 at most. God, if we only had Caron healthy. I'd guarantee a title.
