Lakers should win game 6... I have been saying Lakers in 7 all along and for one big reason.... While Boston plays with great emotion, that can sometimes bight you in the arse in a game 7...Big Baby sure didn't back up his "talk" after game 4, Robo did and i give him much props!

If the Lakers win game 6, they will take the series. I believe Boston needs to come in with the momentum and end this. A focused LA, at home, is nearly impossible to beat, especially twice in a row.

Rondo continues to impress the hell out of me. He's doing things out there that make him look like the best athlete on the floor (at times). He's still young, and gets a little excited with his passing at points.

Terrific series, can't wait until Tuesday.

Fact that I had a flat this AM has kept me out of the public eye (lol)... I have dealt with haters for many years, I just laugh and ask them a question that only a knowledgeable sports fan will know(or even more fun throw out a really dumb stat that is obviously false). I find that most people who truly know and understand a sport don't talk a lot of nonsense after a loss... I'm sure during my b-ball league tonight I will get some flack, but that's OK, because until the series is over both teams have the chance to win or loose!

Loved what Phil said during TO late in the game, something along the lines of, "This team has lost more 4th quarter leads than anyone in the league. They know how to lose."

Agree with Rondo comment, have thought for sometime now he is one of the most gifted athletes in the league... That being said, he still over-thinks like crazy and this is not his 1st championship series, so at some point you have to just chalk it up to him being a lil cocky with his handles and live with the great and the bad.

If you watch the post games both Doc and Pierce agreed and said he is right, but that they have tightened up in the playoffs... Which is true... That to me if the difference between Doc Rivers and Phil, Doc is more of a cheerleader who states the obvious and bickers with the refs, Phil is tactical and provides key words of advice/wisdom and the proper time. It almost worked last night, if Ron Ron hits his FT's I think it may have gone to OT.... Should-a,would-a,could-a right?

That play pissed me off man... He should have gone for the freakin layup, the guy slowed down and waited for Wheelchair to foul him.

We needed that bucket man...

Hopefully we go to the same lineup we did in game 3 when Ron Ron got into foul trouble... Still love the guy and think his D has been awesome (Pierce was just HOTT last night), but I think we need to put pressure on their D and when you are playing 4 on 5 it's hard....

Defense, Defense, Defense...

As bad as Pau was offensively yesterday, he was worse defensively. The same goes for the rest of the clowns playing in Laker uniforms yesterday. Their Defense and rebounding was atrocious, it lost the game for them.

So damn disappointing man...
