Lakers got beat in game 2, Ray Allen was on fire exposing the mismatch of Derek Fisher guarding him..

very nice to see kobe owning.
-
well that is why fisher is still in the game and make critical shots in the 4th quarter.
-
Lakers on the brink of elimination.. haiz so sad to see, Lakers is still a 1 man Kobe team.

-
i think it is going to be a 7th game series.
-
ALL RIGHT !! GAME 7th .........!
Its Show Time....!!!!
-
This is it......hands free.....
"It's really a high-tension situation," added Jackson, a 10-time champion who has never coached a Game 7 in the finals. "Players have come down to putting a lot on the line at this particular point. It's not about the coaching at that point. They've already got it in them. It's about who comes out and provides the energy on the floor."

Yeah if only that blowout win was the final game like what happened in Boston 2 years ago. I hope and pray the Lakers win it..

Well thats what make this game exciting and intense cause winning is not certain. Its a team sport. It takes time for maturity. This is where it comes to being a Real Champ performance under Pressured......
Both teams played 9 months in a year to come to meet the final GAME. Those Guys know what is it like to GET HIGH from winning....
In 2000 i was with a company and the VP brought in High performance Team concept....base on NBA management playbook. Trust me it ain't easy.

Last game. GO KOBE
-
Lakers are the champs. They won game 7 83-79.
I think Perkins missing played a big part because the Lakers outrebounded the Celtics by 23 i think?
And they had 20 more free throws then the Celts, otherwise it was quite a dismal offensive shooting night.
-
Woooo.....16X
Phil Jackson made a comment about Team being physical healthy to get thru playoff.....so it is not just on court performance but the totality of the Game that bring them to be a Champ.
They have the home court advantage....that is due to regular season performance. But i think both Team in terms of physical performance was not their best, I think Game 7th is about Mental Strenght....They did not score well but they out rebound Celtics. They find other means to win the Game.
The totality of the Game made them a Champ..
Both team were in unchartered territory in Game 7th, They gone thru the Rite of passage. The Key is will the Celtics come back again?
Now you can book a ticket and fly to Los Angeles for the Lakers Parade..... : )

The Lakers are lucky they had Bynum on the court for this series more so then ever especially. Even though he wasn't at full health they just needed his size and presence.
-
I don't quite agreed that its all about Size....Celtics blowed away Lebron and Wade. Thats pure experiences and skills. I just think that they were ----- "old" and burn out...as they approach Game 7. couldn't run and physically stay with Lakers.
here's one observation.....
It's made worse by knowing that they had a 13-point lead in the third quarter. Worse by knowing that this team may never be together in this form again. Worse by knowing that Ray Allen went 3 for 14 in what likely will be his final game in a Celtics uniform.
Worse because for the first time this playoffs, Boston actually looked old. -
i think the Lakers team walked alway Game 7 Gaining the experience of Mental strength.
Lamer, Gasol, Bynum, Artest, these guys are still young and probably can run for another 2 seasons.
I think Celtics is going to make some changes to boots its team Youth DNA....maybe Lebron would decide to joint them......that would be Epic.....
-
It would be interesting to see if Zenmaster is going to stay for another Season with the Lakers.
it would also be interesting to see if Derek Fisher is going to retire as player and free lakers salary to hire a new player.
Derek Fisher is such a motivation factors for the team.
-
I dont think the Celts have the salary capspace for a big name.
And i think Phil Jackson will stay for 1 more season to see out his contract and win his 12th title as well as going for another three peat.

I think phil jackson contract expire this month....so he talks about staying on as free agent and salary cut. So there will be negociation soon. its either retired or 1 more year. I don't think he is going to depart with Jeanie Buss.....
The thing is when you have a coach like Phil for the ball club thereafter its downhill.....its tough for anybody to fill the shoes of zenmaster.
Kurt Rambis left i thought he would succeed as coach.....maybe they will try to get Byron Scott back to the Lakers.
The Lakers ball club always retained their players thats how they succeed.
James Worthy became the spoke voice for Kcal9 Lakers TV.
Michael Cooper is the coach for Los Angeles Spark WNBA a constant guest for James Worthy for the Lakers.
Magic is still guiding Kobe on leadership
Kareem is coaching Bynum and the baby skyhook.

I will be surprised if they continue to keep the Allen, Paul, and Kevin.... -
Grats LA. Damm sweet revenge.
