Double post... Id like to see LAL start Turiaf. He was pretty solid defensively tonight. The Cs should start Eddie House also. At least Kobe has to defend him, unlike Rondo.

If they do start eddie HOuse, Fisher can stay in front of him. With Rondo, he's too quick for Fisher but not Kobe.
Lots of mismatches that can be exploited.
However Turiaf could provide defense but we would struggle a lot offensively.

Boston is playing a zone like defense with packing the paint. That's why guys that can shoot the outside shot can be dangerous. Unfortunately, Fisher is off and Vlade brings more negative (defensively) than positives.

game sucked tonite. kobe was brilliant, but the teams both played poorly. celts blew a great opportunity to steal this game and probably end the series. Boy, eddie house missed the pull up to tie it and it was a wrap after that.....

 

[alohagreg]

celtics froze in LA

over the hump though

I wanna see more Trevor

One step closer

Didn't look like a convincing win but hey I'll take it. It's all about adjustments.. BTW, snslarison went to sleep early tonight

LAKERS WIN!!!

It's the Clippers' curse.

If you were once a Clippers, you suck forever.

Don't blame Lamar Odom for that.

Hopefully the Lakers can trade him PLUS Luke Walter in the off season and get something in return... heck I'll settle for a double cheese burger for both of them.

What I meant was you contradicting with you said that you're a basketball fan, but I missed the post you also said you pull for individual. My bad...

I wish Lakers sent Luke in that trade for Ariza. He plays scare!

Its hard to blame Odom. He plays on emotion, its not like he has a killer instinct like Kobe. One thing is for sure, Odom is one heck of an all around player. Perfect fit on this team. Gotta resign Sasha cause hes the MACHINE!

 

[dznuts007]

It's kinda funny how everyone's ranting about how Odom and Gasol "suck" in this series. Doesn't anyone think it's because they're playing Boston? I mean, come on, Boston's defense isn't gonna help them play better...

Kudo's to Sasha. Love seeing him make his 3's!

Nope, I watched the game. I thought the Lakers would win last night. I know you guys are Laker fans but you cant be that excited because Pierce and Garnett basically did nothing and the Celts still had a chance to win. They'll be coming out big in game 4.

I think the Celts will win tomorrow.

Didn't Garnett have like 15 rebounds??.................I wouldn't call that nothing. Odom & Gasol did nothing either & Lakers still won.

Wanna bet frags on tomorrow's game sns????

 

[GTR]

They need a stat that shows "quality rebounds" and "happened to be in the right place at the right time rebounds". I know that goes for everyone but when you're standing there 12 feet out and the ball bounces out to you somehow that's not what I call a quality RB.
Couple times I thought KG was gonna get hit in the face when the ball bounced out to him. Oh, look what I found! :lol:

[SteveOhh]

Lakers got quite a few of those "default" rebounds too...............I mean who's Jordan Farmar gonna out jump.......... :lmao:

Odom and Gasol havent done anything all series.

I would take the bet but I dont have many frags. How about some zenia?

Are you kidding me??...............Odom "tanks" when it comes to playing against quality opponents. He wasn't crap until Gasol came along & now that Gasol has true competition, Odom is tanking again........................I think 90% of the players in the league play on "emotion", cuz very few have the killer instinct like Kobe...............

Has anyone ever tried to teach Odom to drop his shoulder and go under a defender as he heads into the paint? Knocking the defender 10 feet across the floor isn't working for him very well. :lol:

[Puffalicious]

odom should stop trying to be like kobe.. lol

nasty, ugly game.. but we'll take the win

everyone's shot was just not hitting...

 

[jeffreylam1132]

See what happen when Luke don't get in the game at all in the second half, we win. Go figure. Phil, please play Ariza and Turiaf more and please bench Luke for the remaining games.

I agree. I just dont see them managing to do the same tomorrow. Kobe will score his 30+, but when Pierce and Garnett get going offensively look out.
