«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 420 Newer› Newest»haha, what a rainbow.
pau, its no time to pray.
ouch, that was quite a shot
Wow, Fish to the hoop!
Did I ever tell you guys I made the final cut for the original Millionaire? True story.
Then 9/11 happened and ABC stopped sending people to NYC for a while.
Damnit Candy.
damn
Damn, Lamar bit.
candyman bit on that like it was a snickers.
Damn, Odom screwed that up.
missed one.
Bummer, Rbnlaw! Are you going to try again?
Very nice, Nic.
phew, that was close.
Ariza with the deke!
Ugly by Pau.
UGLY shot.
Did you see Gasol posing there?
YEAH Off foul!!
Then he draws the O-foul. Good play.
lets get some buckets.
the whistles woke up again.
This is when Kobe needs to take over.
Then he gets the LB foul. Horrible.
I could start a "that's good/that's bad" line for Gasol.
These refs must be breaking in some new whistles.
i dont mind him drawing in the double team and dishing it out, but guys have to hit shots, or kobe is going to stop passing.
Thanks for bringing back Katherine Zeta-Jones, T-Mobile.
I might switch.
I like the driving hamsters.
doesnt that suggest the car is super tiny?
Unless they're giant hampsters.
Or however the hell you spell it.
kobe needs to start getting to the line now.
I'm assuming giant hamsters. Which is even more awesome.
Everybody loves hamsters. The one I had as a kid died about a week after I got it.
DHTO!
Just like they drew it up, right Walton?
can hamsters get drivers licenses?
I don't like Luke handling the ball.
eff
"Everybody loves hamsters. The one I had as a kid died about a week after I got it."
That wouldn't have happened if you bought it a car.
Beauty by Kobe.
Wow.
Bynum's going to get called if her keeps sticking out his arms on the pic.
a looooong two.
Mbenga will save us!
Who's really going to tell four giant hamsters they can't drive?
haha, dwight howard doesnt, so why should bynum
The car might have had something to do with his untimely death. My hamster was also a drinker.
Too many fouls!
a giant cat?
"Who's really going to tell four giant hamsters they can't drive?"
Not Kia.
Good foul by Farmar.
Maybe GM. They could use some buyers.
If I'm Mark Jackson, I'd be myself more instead of pretending to be like other people.
Nic,
One guy is blatant about it; the other is Bynum.
Two-point game.
damn he hits them both.
I always thought the only hamsters in a Kia provided the power in the engine.
Trading misses.
damn
Where was the foul?
damn
That was a foul?
The announcers are really jacked up by the Magic. I think they want them to win.
Whatever happened to "result of the play?" Why call that when he got to the basket just as easily?
Might be why I watch more soccer these days.
When the Lakers tied the game, it's "The Lakers tied the game. Huh." But when the Magic tie the game it's "HOLY COW THE MAGIC JUST TIED THE GAME!"
alright well the crowd is back in it.
Goaltending!
finally a goal tend. why is contact being let go at our basket and touch fouls at the other.
In the penalty now.
Crap. Lakers are in the penalty.
Hack-a-Hedo?
great, no team fouls on the magic.
haha i hope we win by one.
Kobe!
rbn,
Not that soccer hasn't gotten overly melodramatic these days, either.
Do you follow MLS or the Euro leagues?
man kobe just aint getting calls tonight.
I wonder what the Magic's dance squad is called. The Lovely Assistants?
I can't believe Kobe missed that.
tired legs
Hedo looks gassed.
Bad by Fish.
come on, we are getting nothing.
Announcers: And the Lakers go up by 2.
Announcers: THE MAGIC GO UP BY TWO! OH MY GOD!
I know it's late in the game, buy jeez, their energetic calls are really one-sided.
*but
3 minutes left, magic getting the mo back. with some defense we can take this one.
This is Kobe's time.
Okay, down by 3 with 3 minutes left. Here we go.
ARIZA EMERGENCY THREE!
Turk answers!
Magic by five. Can feel it slipping away.
Crap. That's it.
The one-sided announcers are making it much worse.
we are getting assaulted at our basket an no calls, this is stupid.
cant really score only 15 in the 4th and expect to win though.
finally a foul.
our last chance just heeled out on the rim, damn.
need a stop.
Wow, that was a pretty play.
how was howard that open.
im a little worried about this series now.
Well that's the killer.
That's not clutch.
MAKE EM PAY
Howard misses both.
Kobe time.
they have a chance to go into OT
They have to take a 3-pointer.
10.2 left: who gets the ball?
Rhetorical question, really.
Kobe or Ariza. They're the only ones getting them to drop.
Nice MILF's behind the announcers.
i dont think kobe has been to the line once in the 2nd half
Fisher works, too.
FISH!!!!
FISH!
CLUTCH
THE FISH THAT SAVED LA!
just gota get a stop, we have gone this far, come on guys.
I'm nervous with 4.6 seconds left!
When I said rhetorical, I meant who else but Fish?
DE-FENSE
Now's the time for a stop.
Lots o' time left.
MLASF; a Gabe Kaplan fan?
Good coverage by Ariza to force another turnover.
he calls time out. Shocking.
my dinner has been sitting on the table for like half an hour, too nervous.
Sorry, I've never seen "Welcome Back, Cotter"
I know how you feel. My beer is in the kitchen.
Good defense.
OVERTIME!
NIC'S DINNER WILL HAVE TO WAIT
OT, this is ours!!!
No, but Gabe was in "The Fish Who Saved Pittsburgh."
OT. Got to visit my beer.
My heart is pounding. Good thing I had dinner at the first quarter.
look at kobe fighting howard, he wants this one.
Here's where all our fouls could come back and haunt us.
Actually, that phrase was used when Fisher hit his .4 jumper.
it would be nice if howard had 5 fouls
Uh-oh, Lewis is waking up.
kobe is still working on that gum.
I like that they don't feel they need to answer with a 3.
Good D by Gasol.
Here goes Kobe....
Vicious jab-step.
and he's chewing Stride.
More good D!
Someone was pulling Gasol's jersey.
Ooops.
Kobe's gotta pass.
Kobe airball.
oh, pulling the jersey isnt a foul anymore?
Good D by Fisher.
were getting stops, but so are they.
are you kidding me.
Loose ball foul on Fish.
Again, where's the foul?
That could've gone either way. . .maybe not. Bad shove.
BALL DONT LIE
Howard has huge deltoids.
BALL HALF LIES
no FT's since the 3rd, thats impossible.
Great hustle by Ariza!
Where would they be without Ariza?
In the locker room with heads down.
From here on out they can't miss a shot. Everything has to drop.
Hamster reset.
I'm surprised KIA hasn't gone bankrupt.
"Howard has huge deltoids."
Over development in the traps and delts is a sign of PED use. I kid not.
I mean, who the hell buys a KIA besides hamsters?
I saw a Kia Soul the other day. Sadly, it did not contain gigantic rodents.
Jamir Nelson: MSB of the NBA
FISH! AGAIN!
FISH!
BIG FISH!!!!
Now if they can get a stop.
the lakers have been to the line 0 times in the 4th and OT, how?!?!?
I'm ready to hear throngs of children chanting "Poop in his hand"
Giant hamsters have lots of cash-on-hand.
Guinea pigs: not so fun.
WITH AUTHORITY!
PAU WITH THE SLAM!
I'll call the Kobe elbow a make-up call.
i think that may be the game!!!!
Sure, now they all have energy for hip-bumps.
Dagger?
Bad shot selection by Turk-a-loo.
Love the Pau sprint.
Now I'm gonna hear a bunch of Laker haters talking about how the refs bailed the Lakers out.
I already have the greatest nickname ready for Hedo: Head of Turkey-glue.
Pau with the wheels...
3 possession game.
Did you see Gasol hug Howard after hip-bumping Ariza?
just gotta hit our freethrows now.
Ballgame!
PAU MAS FUERTE!!!!!
CalmatE Pau!
(that's Spanish)
Spain vs. France!
dont call the man soft
Oops. CAlmate.
Pau's made he fouled him with 4.6 seconds left and no hope.
Nic,
Eat your dinner.
One yells in French; the other in Spanish.
What's the use?
LOL RBN
Damn, I got 400 and didn't know it.
Still time for tacos guys!
