You just got have loved the game that the Kings put forth tonight unless you're a Lakers fan that is.

I was very surprised when I turned the game on and the Kings were up by 20+ points. :drinking:

Hahaha. Lazy ass lakers still pulled it out. What was their shooting percentage tonight? They were awful.

oh and they didnt play badly. Except for the first quarter. They outscored the kings all 3 final quarters

I wouldn't be so quick to say the Lakers are going to repeat since they haven't played a good full game yet and lost a game at home.

Too bad the Kings can't take the Lakers 2 games straight. Damn Horry! But all we know is that the Lakers are playing badly and might indeed lose the series.

Its the defence factor again. Noticed the final score? As long as Lakers keep the scores low, I can't give the Kings too high a percentage to win 4.

Lakers' defense sure got tougher since the 2nd half of the game. But I do notice that the Kings are not attacking as well. They play it too slow, completely forget about pushing the ball forward and keep Shaq running. That's how they lost it. If the Kings really wanna win, they'll have to win it fast, can't just play a full 7 games, or their chances will be slim.

We have an expression for that style of play in my country: 'Making the opponent sleep". its not the Kings don't want to play faster, its that they're following Lakers style of play, thinking(a mistake) they can beat them in their own game.

Yeah, the Kings win, now up 3-2 in the series and I say Kings in 7. 8)

Whens the last time you saw a ref call a foul towards the end of a playoff game? Personally I like having the players decide the game unless its a flagrant or intentional foul.

Thrillkill · Post by **Thrillkill** » Wed May 29, 2002 11:29 am

so your saying obviously bad calls should be accepted then, especially towards the end of the game when the game is on the line

? ok...

at least stuff like this wont happen next year, that idiot commisioner stern finally decided to allow instant replay at the end of games

It happened in Game 4 but you are probably happy that they didn't send Shaq to the line instead of Horry hitting the three.

wasnt shaq 6 for 6 from the free throw line 4th quarter? They wouldve easily won during overtime given the amount of momentum they had 8)

...unfortunately, it's Kobe who finish the game and he missed. Kings are really looking good now, as long as they can keep their own tempo.

Did anyone see the Nets game? Just more proof that Jason Kidd should have been MVP in my opinion.
