Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
Barea was getting in to the lane at will
and his man defense and rotation sucked too
plus he did this

I believe Kobe has a "no trade" clause. Fail on behalf Magic if so.
Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
It's called muscle memory. I got addicted to the snap sound of the net on a swish. (without my contacts or with just one contact... lol) vision is of the beholder. An unmoving target is always locked in.
Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
why is the barry boy so suprised about this blowout loss in a closeout game?
does he not remember the celtics blowing the fakers out by 39?
does he not remember the suns blowing the fakers out by 31?
so today's blowout loss to the mavericks by 36 is supposed to be a shock?
some leaders inspire QUITTING.

Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
that is why I kept saying the series was over... Lakers dont have a good reputation in situations like this.. they just fold...

Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
in other threads you've repeatedly asked for signature playoff games.
but the problem is that there are already several signature playoff games to choose from and you're overlooking them.
THESE ARE the signature playoff games.

Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
I made a post about this exact same thing...
Kobe's mental toughness is overrated.
When faced with a real challenge he never shows up.
Last years game 7 would have been the same story if not for his teammates.
It's not hating, it's a pattern that has established itself.

Booooo.....
lakers were unprepared for this series. they thought they'd just cross any obstacle that presented itself like they had in the past. Dallas was playing with purpose of changing history. what was Lakers purpose????? it wasn't destiny. Jerry West is the Lakers destiny.

Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
So you think this was a coaching problem?
I would be willing to bet anything all Phil did was stress how they had to force the mavs off the 3 point line, close out on shooters, and rotate. That was so obvious that I just cant buy that they werent prepared.
Man..look at how many threes the Mavs had where the shooter was completely unchallenged.. i cant even count how many times I saw Shannon Brown sleeping in the paint and then terry run out and spot up for three... never even attempting to chase him down.. just take a look at the highlights..that is effort..

Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
Now it sounds like you are blaming Phil, cause if you say they were not prepared that usually falls on the coach...
You're right. No argument from me. I guess this is what it feels like to be a Eagles fan.
We have a long way to go.
Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
I been saying it's Phil's fault this whole thread. Phil knows this too. but it's like chess...... win 11 and lose 3..... who cares about the losses??? Phil coached this year outta habit.
Re: mavs thread!!!!!!!
When a team sets records for a series then thats not coaching....
Not inside domination, the 3...
All year we have been hearing about the GOAT lockdown D and when told it's overrated we hear that it's somehow hating.
I knew they were overrated, I just didn't know it was this bad.

I am officially retired from basketball. 
I've rolled with Kobe from the day he came into the league, up until today. I'm not even mad, 'cause it's just clear that the Lakers were no longer hungry. I blame the 2004 loss against Detroit on Kobe sabotaging the team, but this wasn't intentional sabotage. The Lakers have been to the Finals the last three years, and it showed today. What big contracts do to some players passion for the game, winning did to the Lakers.
In any case, I had plenty of frustrating and fun times arguing with you dudes - but after 15 years of rolling with Kobe, I have no interest in continuing to watch, because while I think he does have a few more years, at best, of above average basketball left in him, he is definitely on the down side of his career. My interest in basketball has waned considerably since I realized I wasn't going pro -
- and now seems as good of a time as any to call it quits.
I'm O-U-T.
PS: Congrats to Dallas fans.

damn man... you werent playing when you said you really dont like basketball...that you really only watched Kobe.... i thought you were bullshitting when you said you had only seen D. Rose play last month....
Good run for LA but a few moves, especially the Artest vs. Ariza move really did them in... They need a point guard, a real small forward, and they need to abandon this twin towers set and come with a more conventional line up. I believe a changing of the guard is in order, no matter what the Lakers or the Spurs do in terms of moves.
After this years NCAA tournament, I am no longer surprised at what happens... especially this year.
This is one of the best playoffs in years though... and Big Ups to the younger players and the up and coming coaches (Hollins, Dude in Chicago, etc.), once we get through this CBA shit, the league is in good hands.. Congrats Dallas...

Trevor Ariza is not that nice IMO. He has the same skillset as Shannon Brown. I've been waiting for Ariza to fullfill his potential and he had two chances to do it and still can't. I'm just of the belief he is what he is at this point.

How does Kobe stack up to MJ now? It was fucking foolish to even think dude was better than MJ....
dude is one notch below MJ.

Even in a Lakers getting swept thread, the Eagles still lose
