the Lakers have earned every bit of hate they recieve for one reason....ARROGANCE!!!
Ever since Pat Winely patented THREE PEAT I have not been able to put up with their attitudes. Shaq pretends he is not protected more than anyone in the league, and Kobe knows they both are. The fact that Shaq doesn't foul out of every game he plays in is still and always will be BS. The Lakers are a team of cry babies and Payton is a perfect fit for their team. Malone is the worlds biggest Cheapshotting, Flopper that has ever played in the NBA.....

The reason the LAKERS lose in 6 is due to the fact that Detroit is not playing Shaq like every other team, the one thing noone is mentioning...No retarded doulble and triple teams, they are going to shut everyone but Kobe and Shaq down and win fat rings for themselves.

Larry Brown Coach of the Year!
Ben Wallace- Defensive Player of the Century!!!!!!

George 7 pts, Malone 9 pts, Walton 7 pts, Fisher 7 pts, Rush 5 pts.

😕
 
Chauncey fucken Billups shoots 14 free throws. Kobe shoots 5. Nuff said. Chauncey fucken Billups is the second coming of MJ. Ridiculous. Oh and to you guys who say Lakers are lucky time and again. Great players make plays. Very simple concept. Write that down.

Chauncey drove to the basket much more than Kobe did. If Kobe's going to settle for outside J's, don't expect him to get to the line much.
 
btw, what the hell is up with a scrub bench player having a career on the Pistons, at least once per round??

Nets: Brian Scalabrine hits 4-4 from three point range and scores 17 points.
Indiana: Austin Croshere hits 3-4 from three point range and scores 15 points.
Lakers: Luke "Neanderthal" Walton has 8 assists, 2 blocked shots, and 5 rebounds.

jeez....anyways, Scalabrine and Croshere disappeared after their big performances and I fully expect Luke to do the same.

what an idiot, you must be another fanboy on the wagon right now. i guess you never heard of isiah thomas and his pistons? michael jordan and his bulls? larry bird and his celtics? magic and his lakers? you're basically saying crap that's been said about every team that has strung a couple of championships in a row.

The fact that Shaq doesn't foul out of every game he plays in is still and always will be BS.
if you truly think that shaq should foul out of every game, then you've just confirmed my belief that you are a complete idiot. i don't even like shaq, but i have to admit that that guy gets hit harder and more frequently than anyone else in the nba. if you called every foul commited against shaq, the whole opposing team would be in foul trouble by halftime.

The Lakers are a team of cry babies and Payton is a perfect fit for their team.
i don't know who else you think is a crybaby, but i can only think of payton and that's only this year that he's been with the lakers. shaq and kobe might say something about this and that, but every superstar does that. talking about crybabies, did you know that sheed is on the pistons?

Malone is the worlds biggest Cheapshotting, Flopper that has ever played in the NBA.....
i'll agree with the cheapshotting, but not flopper. in fact, he hasn't even done anything dirty nor flopped in these finals. only an idiot would call malone a flopper, an idiot that doesn't know basketball too well.

The reason the LAKERS lose in 6 is due to the fact that Detroit is not playing Shaq like every other team, the one thing noone is mentioning...No retarded doulble and triple teams, they are going to shut everyone but Kobe and Shaq down and win fat rings for themselves.
that may be a possibility, but how about you wait and see?

Larry Brown Coach of the Year!
he's a great coach, but hardly coach of the year. what did he really do this year that's so different than what the pistons accomplished last year? he got them deeper into the playoffs with a better team than last year, that is nothing to rave about. hell, if you think larry brown if COTY, what about flip saunders? the wolves took the first seed and advanced to the WCF, that's a lot more impressive than what brown did. now if you want to stop being such a fanboy, you'll realize that jerry sloan was the true COTY.

Ben Wallace- Defensive Player of the Century!!!!!!
big ben is a great defensive player, but of the century? moron, you're a complete moron.

What he said.:thumbsup:
 
Wow, what a game! Kobe with clutch 3pter to tie and takes the game over in OT. I truely thought the series was over when the pistons were up by 5pts with less than a minute to play.

what about hubie brown
 
I'm rooting for the Pistons, but please stop with the crybabies. Anything can happen in the NBA. Lack of judgement to foul Shaq at the end of regulation. Kobe draining the 3-pt as a result. Those are nothing unusual. We've seen more impressive stuff like Fisher draining one with 0.4 sec left or go back to Reggie Miller scoring 8 pts with about 30 sec left to play.

what about hubie brown

no disrespect to hubie brown, but i honestly felt that jerry sloan deserved the COTY award. the grizzlies have had a stacked lineup for a few years and they just really underachieved until hubie brown came in. now what's more impressive, a coach that gets underachievers to play at their level? or a coach that takes absolute crap (withholding kirilenko) and makes them overachieve?

the grizzlies had a good year, but with that type of linup, it's easily expeted. the jazz on the other hand weren't even suppossed to win 15 games, yet they nearly made the playoffs.

I wouldn't call Walton a scrub. He won on the college level, his father won on the pro and college level. Its in his blood. Walton is a kind of player that the Lakers need...someone who is a threat from the outside but is mainly looking to give up the ball. He could be just as important as Rasheed is to the Pistons.

Really, he belongs on the Kings.
 
Game 3 bump. I'll be picking up my bro tomorrow, and working on SFFs while I watch the Lakers win Game 3. 😀

Hehe after Rush took that shot with 7 seconds left on the clock, didn't you just know the Pistons were going to score. That's the kind of stupid play that is going to drive Phil Jackson into retirement.
