NBA 2008-2009 !!!!!!!!!!!

[pjam]

Looks like this is going 7.

First balanced game by Lakers in the series. This is how they can play, with Kobe in support role they almost always win. Gasol and Lamar came up big on the boards. Nice bench play by Shannon.

 

[The ill Jedi]

LAMAR ODOM IS ALIVE!!! Great to see him have a good game, bodes well for game 6, the rest of the team also played decent ball. Shannon brown gave them that spark they needed at the end of the game, I see a bright future for that kid.

 

[Bannister]

no complaints about the game itself. but ESPN favoritism is pretty blatant and annoying.

I have to agree with you there. It's hard to even understand the commentators sometimes with Kobe's ^^^^ in their mouth.

 

[ProgMatinee]

granted, the lakers won the game, so they must have had more great plays to hype on, but it seemed every little thing the lakers would do the announcers would OOOOOHHMYGOD! Nuggets do something its: hohum that was nice.

Van Gundy is ridiculous as well.

 

[Bodie The Cursed]

Pau did a great job of protecting the rim.. Lamar is a 7 games on 7 games off type of guy.. Hopefully we can ride a fresh 7 games on to the title..

Maybe all the twizzlers make it hard for him to focus..

 

[Bodie The Cursed]

I think we end this one in Denver with the emergence of our front line on both ends..

Clevelend extends thier series to 7 and lose...

 

[karamazov80]

At this point, I think both the Lakers and Magic win in 6.

Then Magic sweep the Lakers in the finals

His dunk on "birdman" was great.

 

[Deeznutz6]

Still saying Cleveland comes back to beat ORlando and beat the Lakers in the final.

Should they lose, do you think this will influence Lebron to look elsehwere after next season?

 

[ProgMatinee]

His dunk on "birdman" was great.

It was a great dunk, but I don't think it was a posterizer. It was like 3 on 1 and Birdman was trailing the play to begin with. It wasn't "on" or "over" him at all.

Birdman rejecting Odom right at the rim where it looked like he would break his fingers off, THAT was a posterizer.

 

[karamazov80]

Wish Birdman could have played last year like he has been this year

 

[The ill Jedi]

...Lamar is a 7 games on 7 games off type of guy.. Hopefully we can ride a fresh 7 games on to the title...

Those 7 games on is all we need.

Bird ****** challenged, so he got dunked on...

 

[Bodie The Cursed]

Shannon Brown dunked on Birdman IMO.. The Bird was 1/2 a centimeter from blocking it but Shannon yolked it..

Looks like we have an eventual replacement for Fish w/ Brown..

If Odom made that, that would be posterized. But instead, Birdman posterized him. The other play was not a posterizer because it wasn't straight up over Birdman. Birdman was trailing the play to begin. If you look at your gif Birdman makes up like 10 feet in a matter of 3 steps. Anyone else wouldn't have even been in the frame.

That block cost the Lakers a Championship title.. It sent Detroit instead of Indiana to the Finals.. Detroit clobbered us..

yeah that was sweet.

 

[The Josh]

Reggie Miller is a ^^^^^. That dunk with birdman is a weak getting dunked on at best since he was trailing the play.

This is getting dunked on.

This is getting dunked on.

i bet Vince Carter could fill an entire page on here with videos of him dunking on ppl. the most impressive one i ever saw was him dunking over that 7'6 guy in the olympics. who hasnt gotten dunked on? its no biggie if your in the NBA.

Orlando better close it out tonight cause if they dont, all the pressure is on them and i know a lot of ppl think they are going to choke in the next couple of games, but unless the Cavs learn how to defend the 3, i dont see that happening. i believe that Cavs need to stop doubling Howard and let him get 40 and dont leave anybody open on the 3, this is the only thing they havent tried yet, so i think this is what they need to do cause Howard isnt dominating them, its the 3 pointers that have been the killer
