While your at it, fuck the Rockets too for not having game enough to beat the fucking Lakers in Round 1.
Fuck you Franchise.
Fuck you Yo!
…and since I am a clone, fuck Kobe too.
Out.
By 10 at home!, ha!

Meh, it happens. San Antonio is a good team. I don’t expect the Lakers to force awkward passes into Shaq for turnovers all game again. Stupid play = defeat. But these guys all know how to adjust.
Exactly. I can’t believe they kept dumping it (or attempting to) to Shaq in the post with Rasho fronting him like that.
I’m not worried yet though.
2 down and 2 to go!!!, Fakers suck!

Yep, now I’m worried.
Definitely worried. Fucking Tony Parker. Lakers can still come back, but it require some, y’know, coaching by Jackson. The triangle obviously isn’t getting it done and you’ve got a bunch of guys who know how to play on the floor. Let them do their thing. Payton and Malone pick and rolls. Penetration and dump offs.
Parker has got to come to earth some time. Who the hell shoots 60% from behind the arc for a whole series?
Plenty of people. Keep in mind, a playoff series is no different in time than a random 4 or 5 game stretch in February or December. Parker shot 31.2% from the arc for the season, but that’s an average. There were plenty of times he had much better stretches, and some much worse. Heck, look at the people with a similar percentage for the season.
Jamal Crawford - Season 31.7% - 5 game Oct/Nov stretch at 57.1%. 4 game Jan stretch at 50%.
Darrel Armstrong - Season 31.5% - 6 games in Oct at 55.6%. 3 games in December at 58.8%. 4 in Dec/Jan at 77.8%.
Tony Parker - Season 31.2% - 3 in Nov at 58.3%. 3 in Dec at 60%. 5 in Mar at 69.2%.
Ron Artest - Season 31.0% - 3 in Nov at 53.8%.
Joe Johnson - Season 30.5% - 4 in Nov at 50%. 3 in Apr at 55.6%.
And last time I checked none of those guys had the driving ability of Tony Parker or Tim Duncan down low to draw the defense. The Lakers are cooked because they have no one that matches up well with Parker and no type of flow that resembles teamwork or cohesiveness.
I’ve decided that if the Lakers lose, I’m going swap Minny, (sorry Spree) with Indy as my team.
A Bowen vs Artest final would be pretty interesting.
What, so Artest can drop Bowen from 6 points to 3 points? 
Yeah yeah you know what I mean.
Here are my 2nd round predictions by the way.
Spurs beat Lakers in 5
Indy sweeps heat
Pistons beat Nets in 5
Kings take Minny in 6
Feh.
My predictions:
Lakers over Spurs in 6.
Indy sweeps Miami.
Detroit sweeps New Jersey.
Minny over Sacramento in 7.
Keep in mind that one of those is delusional. But I won’t give away which one.
I gave some thought to the Pistons sweeping the Nets, but I don’t think they can smother them for 4 games. They’ll have to have at least one bad game.
Well, there you go, World Eater. Pistons had a bad game.
Lakers had a good game, but I’ll tell you - it’s a good thing they had that big lead early because they didn’t play like that the whole game. Here’s to a 2-2 tie after Game 4.
Yep yep, looking good.
<Mischievously rubbing hands together>
I actually missed the Laker Game, so I don’t know if they won, or the Spurs lost. Knowing the difference will either get me excited about game 4, or fill me with dread, because the Spurs don’t lose much.
We had two pivotal game 3s, now we have two pivotal game 4s.
I also heard that Minny smoked the Kings. YES!
Ha. Minnesota is never called “Minny” by anyone except out of state sports fans when referring to our teams on Internet BBs. I think we’re opposed to the girl mouse connotation.
I think it’s supposed to be a term of endearment, but I’ll have to get back to you on that.
Great game last night btw, nice to see the Queens go down in flames.
Yes. I’m hoping Minn-ESOTA (there ya go, skutir) will give us a home sweep and cleanse the floor of whiny bitches. Did you hear Adelman after the game? Good God, man, just because a player comes within three feet of Peja while he’s trying to shoot doesn’t make it a foul. I mean, I know your team is a bunch of pussies, but suck it up.
Good job Miami. Wade and Odom turned out to be nice little pickups for them, huh? I wonder how they would have done with Riley coaching them.
Twins in extra innings last week against Seattle, then Oakland. Now an OT Wolves game in Sacramento. When these games start at 9:00 PM CDT and go into overtime/extra innings, Minny gets Cranky from lack of sleep. :o yawn
I actually don’t follow basketball, but I got sucked into last night’s game… it was a good one, and KG rocks.
**bwahahahahaaaaahahahaaaaaa! **
