my prediction: game 5: lakers, game 6: celtics

I hope the Celts come back next year to be in the Finals again, but I hope the Spurs can beat the Lakers and be in it, too.

I hope miami wins next year

but, with that probably not happening, I hope we see boston and new orleans in the finals next year

Hey Kobeclone, one of your Kansas guys was working out with the Pistons today as a possible draft pick...

What else would you say after a lost? Even if you lost by 2 points. There is still next season....

Well, after this loss, I say "Time to get back to the gym". I'm not even thinking of next year. I'm thinking about getting better. I was embarassed to even watch that game.

Whatever... they stacked the team for a few championship years... any team could have done in, especially in 2010 when the Knicks rebuild for glory.

It's not like the Celtics have good general managers, they've been successful through either free agents or through pure dynasty.

A successful team is able to bounce back from a loss or a win for years. The fact that the Celtecs have not won a single championship for 22 years is disgraceful to both Boston and their fans.

Congratulations none the less, Lakers deserved to lose due to their effort this series.

Sounds like you need to get your ass checked, cause it seems like it really hurts. Maybe a cream will help. Any team could have done it, yet they didn't. The championship Laker teams weren't stacked??? Magic, Kareem, Worthy.....San Antonio with Robinson next to Duncan....stop crying, it makes you look bad.....

Yeah, I saw that.... I still keep my prediction strong that Chalmers, Arthur, and Rush will all go in the first round....I may be wrong it Chalmers withdraws....


Lakers played like ****...

To give you an idea how pissed off I was, I turned the game off with 9 minutes left in the third quarter. I have NEVER turned a game off. When the Lakers came back 22 points in the final 8 minutes of game 4, I was watching, when KU was down 10 points with 1 minute to go against Memphis in the Championship Game, I was watching. When the Chiefs came back 17 points in the final 2 minutes...oh damn, I'm sorry I was under the sad impression that the Chiefs were good...

i agree luke's gotta go, he is the equivalent of a human bowling ball, rolling and banging over players, he's got no hops, no quickness, no lateral movement, cant play d, i dont even know why phil uses him..i think if phil played kareem he would have contributed more

I also hate Chris Mihm and Radmonovic... If they let these 3 guys go, and get a good pick or two and a veteran or two then next year is golden.

Lakers in 2009 and 2010!!!!!!!!

I'm a fan of Rush. I think he's got high potential. I feel like he was very restrained at KU, and will emerge in the NBA. Especially with the extra step he'll be allowed....

Sorry, as a person who lives in a massive Chiefs fan area, I can honestly say they suck....especially since I tend to root for the Rams. (who also suck by the way)

So basically, the team is too white, and needs some more color and athleticism....
