jin...easy, you said how can said coaching staff be beaten in the playoffs by team with little experience...you asked, i answered = )

isn't danny crawford the same ref that the spurs have a beef with too? it's clearly a texas thing and not a cuban thing. i think he's the same ref that has tossed nice guy tim duncan in a playoff game

the lakers better right the ship tonight or i'm buying a CP3 jersey!

My bad... Getting heat up with sport debate! I'm still disgusted to think about that season they gave away to Detroit, but there's no comparison between this season and that one, since there's no tumoir/disgruntled team mates! When your star player(s) on the team quit playing, there's no match up!

Joe Crawford is the one who had beef with Tim Duncan.. I died laughing when he "T" up Timmy on that game... Joe Crawford was on crack that night!

that's right, it was joe crawford. it's sad when you've been watching basketball for so long that you actually recognize the refs and know their names. hahaha. some of them have been doing it what seems like a life time

So who would've thought kobe and pau could combine for 20 and LA comes out with a win in the playoffs. with 8 minutes left, kobe only had 5 points.

i hope miami loses tonight so they can finally feel some playoff heats. they'll probably cry in the locker room if they do

It's gonna be Lakers vs Miami in the finals..IMO

Crawford has been a jackhole for decades, I remember hating him during the Jordan era

the LEASTERN conference is such a joke, they might as well give those boys a first round bye except for the 4 vs 5 seed. pathetic .500 win percentage or lower teams getting in the playoffs and falling behind 0-3 in their series. i'd love it if my lakers were served up some first round cream puffs

i remember arguing with some moron 3 years ago when the eastern conference finally won the head to head for regular season games for the first time in like a decade, i said it was just a strange lucky year and it'd go back to west coast dominance...wish he was around for me to gloat

just finished my playoff routine

Before every lakers playoff game, i put down 24 three pointers and 24 free throws for good luck. sank 11 threes in a row so it should be a good night

Nice... You start shooting again?!? Better make .500+ so we can crush'em

11? I went 16 in a row one time and 23 free throws in a row

Good stuff Ninja... was this on NES TECMO NBA or NES Acclaim Arch Rivals

Cant wait for tonight!!! I hope the Lakers wake up tonight

CP3 has done a good job on "flip on the switch!"

Could be but I hope it's the Lakers getting it together .
We are a very good "on the road Team". A lil scary w/Bynum again though

I LOVE when kobe gets into F YOU mode on the road. no one can match it except maybe paul pierce. i hate that man but somethin about the road just wakes him up.

yeah i put in my 24 shots yeseterday afternoon. i never miss a day during the playoff run.


Was jamal crawford's last shot pure luck? the move he put on jameerkat to get open was nice but that bank was steered in by an angel IMO
