| Unfortunately I missed the game, but nothing gives me more pleasure than knowing the Lakers lost. I hope kobe cries when he's convicted of rape :eek: |

poor guy pours his heart and makes tons of points per game only to see his teammates produce less than 10points per game each |
Sympathy for SHAQ you gotta be kidding me the guy has already won 3 Championships. He is only in it for the $$$$$. Did anyone hear that about his "beef" with this MC called Skillz. I think SHAQ should worry more about the Pistons than his rap career at the moment. |

i'm a laker fan, i already counted them out during the last round, but somehow they came back to win that series.
i felt they were gonna get game 4 and they didn't, so i've givin up hope again because they're a bunch of .
kobe's good, but i don't think that good. he was what 5 for 18 yesterday? i know they were playing him hard, but he had good looks that he couldn't convert. and when he started to pass the rest of the team couldn't make their open shots.
shaq was the only player that really did anything during game 4. and i admit that he is a lazy too. he could make his free throws if he worked harder, but he probably thinks his teammates are gonna fill the slack.
i hope they win game 5, but i don't feel they are with malone's torn ligaments, payton playing like , kobe being a little bitch and the rest of the team not making shots.
again they may win game 5 because it's 'do or die' but i wouldn't hold my breath. |

pistons all the way!!!!
those overrated lakers. Only one I have respect for is Kobe and that's cuz he has skills.....all b.s. aside.
Shaq is a joke. Hakeem the Dream was possibly the best center. he schooled David Robinson (admiral) the same day he got his MVP. Also schooled Shaq in the sweep against the Orlando Magic 94-95 finals. |

yea kobe has skills, but more often then not he s up somehow. people don't see that because he's willing to take big shots and when he makes them everything is forgotten.
as for shaq, i think he could be really good he's just to damn lazy just relying on his size and power. for his size he could make pretty quick moves. if only he got leaner and cut up like malone was at his last couple years with utah and worked way harder and added some more moves to his list of what 3 shots he wouldn't be getting stopped so much. |

i think more than anything the lakers is a collection of allstars
and now its more than evident that there is no team cohesiveness when i found out that derek fisher and rick fox complained to the coach when not being started.
they wanted to be started in place of malone and payton.....since they won the championship before and not them.
the demise of this team and the breakup of this so called "invincible" squad will occur by next week |

allstars??
kobe- yes, I will even give you shaq.
but
Malone and Payton. They are have-beens, who complain to much and use cheap tricks on the floor.>>>Malone |

malone's injured, he can't even jump and all he did in game 4 when he got the ball was pass it. he wasn't even being guarded by rasheed, he knew he probably couldn't make it because he couldn't get anything out of his legs.
and payton, he's been complaining all year because laker basketball isn't his kind of basketball and also because he's been sitting in the 4th for most of the games.
yea i guess they're all stars, but that doesn't matter right about now does it.
malone is gonna retire, payton might leave, kobe might go to jail in which cause payton may stay as there's one less allstar to deal with. shaq i think will stay. so i beleive the demise of the team has started along time ago as this IS L.A.
and it wasn't just fisher and fox that went to phil, it was the whole squad that won the last championship according to the la times. phil told the whole team what happened and that he was still thinking about it. it's not like the change helped, without the playing minutes together they're just out of sync. |

| It's not over untill it's over. If Lakers win game 5, which they most likely will, they'll own the Pistons in 6 and 7 since it's played in Los Angeles. |

yes it's not over till it's over, but i think loads of people thought the lakers were gonna tear the pistons a new one it game 4. hell i even thought they got game 4 and 5. was i wrong. they just gotta win game 5 but i'm not going to say they are as i've they've proven me wrong. if they win then they really have a chance as they got home court.
maybe it's all a shame and they're gonna win the rest? it's all been drama since the 'new' team was formed hasn't it? whats a little more drama. |

I really doubt there will be a game 6 & 7. Even if this does happen there is no way the Lakers will win both of those games. |
