Yeah the playoffs have been real good, lots of really good games.

Still think the Nuggs are gonna win game 6 then probably lose game 7. I hope not but for whatever reason the Nuggets play totally different home and away.

Kinda hope the Cavs come back and win the series against the Magic but I'd be happy if it still just went to 7 games. I don't want these playoffs to end...

Shannon Brown's dunk on Birdman was fucking sweet.

Anyway. Thank god for Sasha hitting that three.. gives us SOME momentum


While I can applaud you for being a true fan, I also have to admonish you for being such a drama queen. Good win for the Lake show nonetheless.

For the last two years, the Knicks have been setting themselves up to get two of the free agents coming. They hired D'Antoni, Got that huge albatross of Marbury's salary off their books, dumped Randolph's contract, and pretty much have their Bench starting for them now. Lebron and Bosh/Stoudemire/Wade/ or whoever else is a free agent in 2011 will be major.

Loose Cannon 05-28-2009 10:15 AM

yea, it's been the story for a while that the Knicks' goal has been to get James in 2010. And that would be amazing.

Last night, the Lakers did exactly what the CAVS can not seem to do. Everyone contributed. I think Kobe had like 15 shots or something. When they double up Kobe, somebody is open, and when those guys can drain thier shots, you can't stop that.

Oh and Kobe did something last night that really impressed me considering he did not take many shots in the game at this point and was wide open. During the end of the game, he was wide open for a 3, but opted to pass to ball inside to a wide open Lamar. To me, the younger Kobe does not do that. great play

Anonymous Nuggets player accuses Lakers of buying a win
May 28, 2009 · Filed Under Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Lakers, News


The Denver Post (Mark Kiszla) reports after the Lakers beat the Nuggets in Game 5: In an accusation that goes straight to the heart of the sport’s integrity, one member of the Nuggets shook his head in disgust after the game, and could not believe how cheap it was for Los Angeles to buy a 3-2 lead in the Western Conference finals. “The Lakers paid $50,000 to win that game. They got their money’s worth,” said a Denver player, not wanting to be identified for fear of retribution from the league. Was the outcome rigged? I refuse to believe it was. The 16 field-goal attempts the Nuggets missed during the fourth quarter had much more to do with the defeat than any of the 30 personal fouls called against Denver by the referees.



Gotta be Kenyon Martin

Exactly

Jesus Shuttlesworth 05-28-2009 06:13 PM

Really don't think a NBA ref would risk their job for 50,000

Loose Cannon 05-28-2009 08:40 PM

I doubt whomever said that meant it seriously. kind of just seems like the reporter spun it in a way to make his report more interesting.

HeartBreakMan2k 05-28-2009 08:51 PM

Good grief look what Cleveland is doing to start

The Knicks have set their cap up where they can sign 2 guys to max contracts in 2010. Which means they can sign LeBron and another superstar that year.

The Gold Standard 05-28-2009 09:43 PM

Lets go Magic!!

yea, I know. something about these playoffs, even before Chicago/Boston really drew me in. Tell you what, TNT did a fantastic job with thier 40 Nights Marketing commercials. That definately hooked me. but there's been so much drama throughout this whole thing.

Juan 05-28-2009 10:05 PM

Yeah, I think TNT def has the best coverage

Juan 05-28-2009 10:05 PM

I love Doug Collins

SammyG 05-29-2009 12:20 AM

WE WERE ALL WITNESSES ONE LAST TIME.

k, Orlando wins next game. Please.

Honestly, I think LA matches up better with Cleveland. Orlando causes us problems. but if Orlando makes it..... Home court Advantage goes to LA

Jesus Shuttlesworth 05-29-2009 02:49 AM

Knew the Cavs where gonna blow that end in the 1st quarter. LeBron played out of his mind at the end, great game.

Loose Cannon 05-29-2009 09:57 AM

I wish he would go to the basket a little bit more. He loves to take that step back jumper, which was pretty on late last night. But every time he goes to the basket, he gets a call.

Williams was finally on last night. thank god. yea, I knew that lead would evaoprate by the 2nd half.

I want the Cavs to win. I have to admit, I am a Lebron fan. I really never like star players, unless they are on my teams, but Lebron is awesome.

SammyG 05-29-2009 03:40 PM

I think game 6 is gonna be epic. Double, triple overtime.

The Cavs one.

At the risk of sounding like a fanboy, I just have to say, this is BEAUTIFUL

Krimzon7 05-29-2009 11:15 PM

Kobe is beating back every fucking Nuggets run. Beautiful. There is nothing more enjoyable as a player than to clinch a road victory by sticking a dagger in every fucking fans' heart....then twisting.

Juan 05-29-2009 11:20 PM

lol Kobe "No mercy!"

Jesus Shuttlesworth 05-30-2009 12:49 AM

Wow Lakers smashed them

SammyG 05-30-2009 01:26 AM

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! ON TO THE FINALS BABY!

What an excellent team performance. Seriously. Everyone stepped up. Luke fucking Walton had 10 points come on.

McLegend 05-30-2009 01:33 AM

Really hope the Cavs don't get smashed like that.

SammyG 05-30-2009 01:34 AM

I really hope they do. I want homecourt. Still think LA matches up better with Cleveland though.

SammyG 05-30-2009 01:36 AM

24-24 from the free throw line btw.

They are fucking retards. God damn fucking nuggets. I was unable to watch tonight, but they lost this series fr themselves in game 3 and 5, when they started turning the ball over like crazy in the 4th, and blowing leads. Awful. So pissed at them.

Fignuts 05-30-2009 02:16 AM

FUCK

Really wanted to go to an NBA Finals game.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 05-30-2009 02:23 AM

Surprised Phil Jackson wasn't still crying in his post-game press conference tonight even though they won

SammyG 05-30-2009 03:02 AM

YO HOLLA MIGHT BE GOING TO GAME 1

Krimzon7 05-30-2009 09:30 AM

Lebron would score 100 points before he goes out like that. My money is down. Sammy that Retards pic is fucking classic.

RP 05-30-2009 09:31 AM

The best part of the Denver vs LA series was when Smith hit that 3 at the end of the 3rd quarter and punked Sasha out.

Loose Cannon 05-30-2009 12:56 PM

LA matches up a lot better with the CAVS. CAVS have a terrible inside presence (well not terrible, but pretty bad against bigger teams) and the Lakers have a good inside presence.

Loose Cannon 05-30-2009 12:57 PM

I want the CAVS to win, but I don't want to Lakers to win and I don't see the Cavs beaitng LA. Orlando has a better chance imo
