The only reason the Lakers were in it as long as they were was because of the horrid officiating. The Wolves just had more heart tonight, plain and simple.
It'll be interesting to hear what Phillip says, he always whines like a little beeyatch when he gets spanked a la the Mother's Day Massacre.

That's one of my big gripes about foul calls in the playoffs. Seasoned veterans know that the officials will call things that are questionable/borderline but appear to be a foul, so they continue to flop/twist/wrestle/do whatever they need to, to get those calls. Reggie Miller has got to be one of the worst offenders of this, he'll literally take his defender's arm and shove it in his jersey and proceed to twist and contort his body to make it look like the defender is grabbing his jersey and throwing him around. Or even in the game earlier today he kicked his feet out at an oncoming defender while shooting a three and got the call.
Really irks me when fouls get called on those kinds of things, especially when it's blatantly obvious that the foul should've been called the other way.

Craig Sager asked KG what he thought after Game 1 of the series when everyone was saying that they were going to be swept. KG goes "We were like you and that suit, we just went out and played and didn't care what other people thought." It was something along those lines, but it was a lot funnier watching KG in action saying all that.

Well, even when the Lakers play horribly, they always seem to find a way to put it together and win. Like Game 7 against Portland in 2000. Watching the first 3 quarters, I jsut about gave up on them because they played like they didn't want it, but when the 4th came around they got down to business. Also, when Sac extended them to Game 5 in that year, they just buried them. Then the next year was a cakewalk. But last year, they managed to put teams away still. No 2nd chances, no giving away games to Portland, SA or Sac. This year is different, but I still have them as the champs. They just gotta play like they are capable of playing.
Can't wait to see Game 4...

if the lakers win the championship without playing the kings, you think they care?

Yeah, but wouldn't it be much sweeter if the Kings knock off the Lakers in the WCF? It's the ultimate payback. At this rate, the Kings will just bulldoze through the Mavs, Spurs, and then the Sixers for the Championship... Sigh... so uneventful.
