LA needs to get their shit together at half time. Keep two hands on the ball, get your asses out and hustle for loose balls, and just play smarter.

Sometimes I wonder if the Lakers even look at what they did wrong during previous games. :confused:

Kobe sucks MVP my ass, the worst team in the east, Hawks, gave Celtics a better run than this! Guess the West was really the weaker side this year! Kobe is a joke and a rapist

No hustle. No Defense. And Kobe being the all player with a pulse, the Celts can quintuple team him.

kobe turning the ball over and over and shooting ugly 3's is losing the game... kobe had 3 points in last 20 mins and 3 turnovers ....

wow, celtics are owning the lakers

Kobe is over-rated
yeah he get double teamed and celtic's defense is centered around him but I've been watching him play game after game after game and he causes way too many turnovers and his shot selection is horrible. He is nowhere near the comparison level of michael jordan.


edit: I really wanted to see a close game :(
and a game 7 :(


double edit: Celtic just want it more. And KG deserves a ring especially.

When the ball comes off the rim or hits the floor you've got 3+ green and white jersies digging and diving for it while the lakers just look at and hope it bounces out of bounds.

You don't win championships being that apathetic.

Not if game 4 taught us anything. I'll wait for the end of the game before popping out the champaigne

You'd think when you're fighting for your lives. You'd be diving and busting your ass. At least give out a couple of hard fouls. Lakers need to get some tough/defensive oriented players next year.

guess they have less heart... maybe they only care about that pay check? But more than anything i think the refs fixed the game, yep for sure.

Congrats to the Celtics for the NBA championship. I turned off the TV. No need to watch the rest of the game. I really hope there's a rematch next year.

I'm happy that the Lakers got this far. I can only hope that the Lakers will be strong again next year (and all likelyhood will be). I hope they don't get deflated w/ this series loss and bounce back strong w/ an even better year.

To repeat what I've already said, sorry Kobe you don't win championships shooting fadeaways from 20 feet.

BTW when people say Kobe won 3 championships, it was Shaq who did all the work. On the other hand, MJ was the centre point for each of his 6 championships. No comparison!

He's not even trying to play anymore. Nor anyone else. Phil Jackson should be fired.

The Lakers don't even have an offensive rebound in the game.
