meh, i'll tip my hat to KG. he is a beast. but, kobe is kobe. i don't even think KG could stop him, with the steam he's been picking up in these series closers. both him and the lakers are hungry this season, and the celtics played like some satisfied-one-ring bums. they didn't want it as bad, there was no motivation. so even with KG, I doubt they could have made it to the finals, let alone beat us in them.

KG does not make the team. Pierce, Rondo and Davis are still VERY good players who should have been able to hold that team down. Plus, you guys have a good bench.  Stop falling back on that "but but we didn't have KG!" excuse homie :P

well they say Lakers dont match up well with Magic and i hope their right............i freaking hate the lackers and all their players especially kobeRyder004

go magic!

alston = fischer
lee < kobe
turkoglu ? odom
lewis = gasol
howard > bynum

it's really going to come down to who plays better at SF, turk vs. odom

go magic!

The only matchup that matters is who can stop the Polish Hammer...

and the answer is no one

I lol'd at that for some reason.

anyway, this will be a good match-up. I think this will go to 7...

LeBron:lol:

 Let's go Lakers! Bring it back to LA! Seven long ****ing years I've waited since the last championship, I don't want to wait anymore.

Magic fans have been waiting like 14 since they even appeared in the finals. :?

It's different when you're a Lakers fan... You almost expect the team to compete for the conference title every year(As I do). IDK.

Nothing feels better than winning a title. It's been a while since we've got it done. I don't care how many titles we win, it never gets old.

should be a good series between the Lakers and Magic, man  I didn't get to see the game today but I heard the people on espn talking about Lebron storming off the court, what a punk  :lol:

Shawn Bradley at 5:49:lol:

I can't help but think of how much Lebron reminds me of Penny after watching this. Except Lebron's got about 40 lbs on him lol and can jump higher, and Penny was quicker and a little better passer.

not gonna lie... that was great. Weezy still drops hot verses sometimes, but I just really hate the songs he does where his verse is basically all similes and metaphors. For example, his verse on LB's "Breakin' My Heart". It can be funny sometimes but ehhh I don't like hearing more than a few in one verse.

end of 1st, mafic up by 2.

that polish dude is a beast on defense

^ lol word pietrus is ugly as ***

Lakers up by 10 after the first half :D

I love the way the Lakers played in the first half. Defensively, offensively, awesome.

Keep it up LA!

"like sade, we got the sweetest taboo" [c] Weezy

Also, I'm not fretting seeing the Lakers up. Magic always play their best ball in the 4th quarter

18 point lead, gotta keep it up.

Unless the Magic get hot from the arc we should get this one.

this is too dam easy for Kobe, he's just toying with them right now andyboiii

^ I was saying in another forum, this is one of the reasons the Magic needed a healthy Jameer Nelson to be able to win this series. Right now he's at about 50% and that's not going to help the Magic at all because he's not penetrating to the basket which is what he did that killed the Lakers in the regular season. They're just not hitting shots at all either, Turkoglu who was a factor in the 1st quarter hasn't scored a basket since then andyboiii

The REAL MVP showed up tonight.

 Let's bring it home LA. 3 more to go.

yeah, nelsons looked awful all game....hes been slow, and his shots have barely graced the rim. i just turned the game off, no comeback tonight :(Colt45fool

Nelson was amazing right when he came in, prolly because he was playing off adrenaline. But he was meh the rest of the way.

We need to double Kobe no questions asked. Force Odom and Fish to knock down jumpers.

I also would not mind us using a lineup of Dwight/Gortat/Lewis/Hedo/Rafer just to get more size. Kobe is getting by whoever is guarding him so at least put some size on him so he can't post up so easily. And with this lineup Kobe will at least be working more on D because he would have to guard Rashard or Hedo. Courtney Lee isn't really an offensive threat so Kobe could lay off him tonight.

I'm sure the Magic are gonna come out better next game though. It was just one of those days...

FUDGE!!!!!!!!

FREAKING HATE LAKERS....I dont think i can take it if they get a championship

FML

lol was that Dom Kennedy with the fans outside the Staples?

Anyway great game, Kobe in best mode right now.

i'm calling this game... 1st quarter Kobe falls and blows out his knee... Orlando wins by 60 points.TheHimura

[QUOTE="TheHimura"]i'm calling this game... 1st quarter Kobe falls and blows out his knee... Orlando wins by 60 points.fat_rob

replace "1st quarter" with "one day" and "Orlando wins by 60 points" with "I dunno who wins"
