NBA discussion thread

Not yet, i want to see how we do on the road first. The Jazz are tough at home and Williams seemed to be finding his game in the 2nd half.
Great win though, perfect way to cap of Kobe's MVP presentation. I love the fact that we arent predictable down the stretch anymore and Kobe has people that can finish plays if he gives the ball up. The Fisher 3 and Gasols dunk off the double on Kobe is proof. Replace those 2 players with Smush and Kwame and its not hard to see how we struggled when teams loaded up on Kobe.
Good to see Lamar doing work on the boards tonight, i thought Gasol could have given him some help though. Still too many second chance opportunities for my liking.
On to game 3 ...........

Lakers...Another win. Kobe, Pau, Fisher and Lamar

Andrew may have surgery on his knee, if it doesn't show improvement. Good luck big man

Crazy play.

Lakers were great last night. The Jazz are proving me right on what kind of team they are. Not worried when the Lakers play up there.

I think it is time the Cavs trade for OFFENSE. Hopefully Mike Brown will finally be fired or at least demoted to defensive coach only.

LeBron is having a horrible series. Two games at home should help

Lebron is looking really bad this series. He's having some of the worst performances of his career. Will be interesting to see how he responds at home.

In contrast, Chris Paul has been having an insane playoffs. Even in their lost yesterday, the man was a beast. I so hope to see a Lakers-Hornets conference finals.

LeBron is showing his age and inexperience. How did they ever get to the Finals last year!!?

Wizards team missing two of their stars, an AWFUL Nets team and a Pistons team who didn't understand how to double team and force LeBron to become a jump shooter. We all "witnessed" what happened when he met up with a team from the West.

Whats with all the Lebron hate? The man has no help, a coach who doesn't know how to run an offense, and is going against one of the best teams in the league. That ingredients doesn't exactly spell success.

Oops. .bus

I was talking about the Boston series. Obviously.

We'll sweep either team. We wont lose a game until possibly the WCF.

Like I said before....sweep!

We killed this team with Bynum. We killed this team without him. I don't remember if we played them with Gasol, but if we beat them without him and Bynum, I don't see them winning a game in this series. We're just too loaded on offense, and they wont be able to consistently score with us. I don't mean to sound like a jackass, but get out your broom sticks and "get ya popcorn ready".

You know what? Leave the popcorn in the cabinet. You wont need it for this series. Best you save it for movie night or the NBA Finals.

Everyone knows I was talking about the Lakers series. twas a joke.

Too many turnovers. They will correct that on Sunday

Need more production from Sasha and Jordan. Been playing well all year. Still no DJ or Ira

Need more production from Jordan? How about need more Jordan warm bench! man that dude has got some awful defense, he's playing Smush Parker type defense. Get beat off the dribble, give up, stand there looking like a statue staring at one of the other players like it's their fault. He can't guard Deron as a matter of fact he can't guard most point guards in the league. With Phil knowing this and even commenting on it after the 1st quarter, I'm surprised he didn't just run Sasha at the point and have Him guard Deron. If we would done that, he wouldn't have had his way like he did with Farmar.

Mbenga should have gotten some playing time as well.

The Jazz have the harshest fans:

The first guy got ejected btw: http://youtube.com/watch?v=a4vOGVSEXtw
