What happened to all the Laker fans??? I can't even get a reply... </div></div>

It would be different if all you jobs were Celtics fans. Instead, you all come crawling out of the cracks like cockroaches when your team loses or is beaten by a team in the Finals and want to bash who beat your boys.

LA put themselves in the situation they are in by lousy defense. Not switching of the pick and roll has allowed Paul Pierce to look like a million dollars when he's not worth 1.50. And Phil Jackson, some of his decisions, like giving Chris Mihm playing time in an elimination game and having Kobe ride the bench is just unbelieveable. But win or lose, LA did what they had to do to keep the series alive and send it back to Boston.

And about the LA crowd chanting "MVP"...don't see what the problem is since they were chanting for the guy who won it. Keep crying about Chris Paul...he's on his ass at home wishing he could be in the finals now.

travel or out of bounds on kobe? i thats who it was...anyway take your pick</div></div>

Let's talk about how Kobe got to the ground on his back close to the baseline corner before you start crying about a missed walk/out of bounds.

You mean to tell me you didn't see that shove KG put on Kobe from behind to put him down on the floor...and a foul wasn't called???

Take off the anti-purple/gold glasses every once in a while and maybe 1% of what you post would be believable. As it is right now, your credibility is NIL.

I can't wait until the Lakers pull this off. I'm not a fan of either but i want to hear all these celtic fans chat about how they don't deserve it. How the celtics give it to them. Has everyone forgot in training camp, the Celtics "BIG 3" was already NBA CHAMPS and the Lakers was going to be lucky to be the 8th seed in the west. By all rights this series should have ended in 4, and the Lakers should have been pleased they have gotten as far as they have. But if this Laker team beats your "BIG 3" Celtics Fans this will be the biggest joke in NBA HISTORY........

One historical Finals comeback deserves another!

[neutral88]

Tuesday will be the last game....

Pierce will score more than the MVP, again, and they will get their trophy in the garden....

Pierce was the only decent player on the floor last night...

Yeah all that talk was at the beginning of the season like you said, long before that trade for Gasol was made...so the Lakers were no underdogs coming into this like youre making them out to be, they were actually a favor be a lot of ppl coming into game 1...so if by some chance they were to win, it wouldnt be the upset of the century

To whoever said this series should be done in four games:

LA has been a favorite in every game in this series, sometimes by 6-8 pts, I think I saw one game go off at 9 points.

Yes I mean to tell you i didnt see that, obviously the refs didnt see it either...they must have not seen the push downs throughout the game by the lakers either...so as of right now, im not trying to make you believe me...when did i put "FACT" in front of it?...i think this will be over next game, hopefully and kobe will be bitching by next season that he wants out

Then you're blind as well as stupid. Moreso the latter though.

Yes they did--remember that foul that the refs called on Gasol (push in the back after the rebound) after he missed the shot over KG with about 2 min's to go? They called that.

All you're making me believe is that you know less about the game of basketball than a little green man from Mars, and that's probably giving you too much credit.

Doubtful. Kobe knows that if they keep this team together, and they add Andrew Bynum back into the mix at close to 100%, that this team is LOADED. This series would already be over if Bynum were in uniform, and the Big 3 would be making their offseason vacation plans to get better and try to come back after a Finals loss. He also seems to be happy with the teammates he currently has, though he was disgruntled last offseason. Win or lose, this season's proven to Kobe that as long as Jackson & Kupchak can put some good pieces on the floor with him like Odom, Gasol, and Bynum, that his game is that much harder to stop, which makes the Lakers that much harder to stop. He won't be looking for a way out.
