he is. hopefully van gundy learned from the nelson experiment in the first half and got it out of his system. i also think he played nelson about 3-4 minutes too long.

Yep..he should have gotten some quick burn...5-6 minutes and back on the pine

yea i guess he missed the point of 'easing' him into the game. don't want to mess up the chemistry of the team cuz shit like that happens.

did stan van gundy finally get a hair cut??

He sure did. Tries to act like he doesn't care what other people think but I see since his azz is in the finals, he headed to the chair, lol.

Kobe said Shaq never would of won without him.

Sounds about right to me but don't act like FOX and play them "partial" clips. He ultimately emphasized if the all the pieces were not there, ain't no championships to talk about.

The shit kobe is hitting is crazy. Pietrus is playing good D. Its just Kobe is playing better on the offensive end right now. Hes not new to this shit though. Anyone else after Shane battier should be a step down for him.

Orlando will mount a comeback, make no mistake about it. I feel Ariza and co will catch fire to balance it out in the end. Kobe may go back to drawing the double, then kicking out.

yessir. face guarding and all that. any tighter and it's fouls. kobe is just on it - he's shooting using gps or radar or something cause i refuse to believe that he can see the basket with that kinda d.

remember when SVG was coaching miam, Shaq used to call him "the good looking one"

 

[Killa KMS]

O SHIT THIS LOOKS LIKE ONE OF THOSE NIGHTS kobe is in the ZONE!

yea i guess he missed the point of 'easing' him into the game. don't want to mess up the chemistry of the team cuz shit like that happens.

that said, kobe taking 18 shots messed up laker chemistry too. but the difference is that kobe got hot - that's really the difference. nobody else on either team is in a groove right now and the three pointer is such a wildcard that a 10 point lead really ain't safe.

it's chess with these coaches now. van gundy did not coach well imo in the first half. see if he makes adjustments.

No excuse for Bynum missing that layup.

 

[alexw]

Rashad play like your fuckin 6'10

fuck.....

 

[LurkMode]

Rashard is 6'10'' he should have tried to yam that instead of reversing

 

[Killa KMS]

fucking bynum sigh this is killin me.

 

[A$AP SaVaGe]

BYE BYE BYNUM!

 

[SIDESHOW]

What kind of call was that?

 

[LegendOfLedo]

refs on bullshit

 

[ak_rep]

That was a b/s call on Bynum.

 

[LurkMode]

Rashad play like your fuckin 6'10

fuck.....

great minds think alike

 

[Coldchi]

i swear man.....Bynum is softer than baby shoes....that nigga be actin like he's scared to dunk and shit. ole "i must foul everytime down the court" ass nigga.

 

[malaki]

No excuse for Bynum missing that layup.

yeah that was real tentative.

i swear if he got a fire lit under him he's not THAT much less talented than howard.

 

[guess_who_is_back]

cant believe that nigga dwight howard is 23 yrs old


wtf??

 

[lightweightplaya]

/STAN VAN
Whyyyyyyyy are u not playing defense guys???
/STANVAN

 

[Nobody]

yeah that was real tentative.

As far as post offense he's much more talented than howard. More moves and better footwork. Howard kills him on rebounding and defense though. and of course application of the skills he has.

 

[alexw]

here comes Orlando

the nerves are wearing off

 

[alexw]

bad fucking call on lewis!!!!!

 

[LurkMode]

I think JJ Redick just had a stroke or a seizure

 

[blooo]

Lee is not allowing Kobe to get position on him while defending him, Watch how much time and space pietrus is giving him. and he;s getting lost on pick and rolls

 

[Nobody]

LA is gonna have to keep this defensive pace the whole series. If they let up and allow Orlando to get hot from the perimeter it's a wrap.

 

[Mello Mello]

and fisher, horry, fox, and coach jackson etc. . .

He sure did. Tries to act like he doesn't care what other people think but I see since his azz is in the finals, he headed to the chair, lol.



Sounds about right to me but don't act like FOX and play them "partial" clips. He ultimately emphasized if the all the pieces were not there, ain't no championships to talk about.

Yeah it's just the way he said Shaq like he did him a favor instead of saying he wouldn't have had a championship without his team mates.

 

[Killa KMS]

and 1 Bitch

 

[LegendOfLedo]

Seems like Darth Kobe is playing tonight.

 

[alexw]

[thundercat]
