NBA '08 Playoff Thread

Well Laker fans, I think it's officially time to quite whining about fouls -- wow.

Side note, here comes that terrible disease Boston has when it comes to closing out a playoff basketball game. Jesus mother of God this team has issues late.

 

With Pierce ineffective I don't like their chances of a comeback here.

 

I wish he would quit forcing it and give the ball to Allen, who is stroking it.

 

And that's why you can't ever throw the towel in on Pierce.

 

I don't have a big problem with House being in there to space the floor, but I hope Doc doesn't out-think himself going forward. Rondo had 16 assists in G2 and has dominated Fisher in this series. Let him play.

 

Maybe the NBA has something to do with it.

Nice of you to notice the thread that's already running about that topic, indiansnetwork.

 

Who in the hell is attempting to guard Vujacic? Big time game for him right now -- exactly what LA needed. Another stop and a hoop and we'll really start hearing about how the 2-3-2 is bullshit (and it is by the way).

 

I agree, but it is ridiculous that Allen has taken 1 shot in the last 6 minutes. He had the hot hand and Pierce hasn't done anything, so go with the hot hand. You are a team after all.

Oh, and big shot from Eddie House.

 

You had to know Kobe would have a game like this. G4 is huge now.

 

Don't you have to at the very least show a double-team on Kobe? At least guard him man and chase with somebody else. Unbelievable. You're not gonna guard Kobe 1-on-1 with Ray Allen.

 

Odom would decide to finally get aggressive at that point.
