I'm not sure I've heard Kareem say so many words before.

NicJ said...

whats your prediction for tonight MLASF?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Closer win. Much closer. Game 2 from last year close. But a win nonetheless.

NicJ said...

Lakers in the sunday chick hearn tribute white uni's tonight.

NicJ said...

Im looking for Odom to show up tonight.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Kia: the #1 choice of rapping hamsters

Kyle Baker said...

Sons of Devean George, unite! Let's do this.

#ILoveLA

Kyle Baker said...

I agree w MLASF's prediction. Lakers win, but close and tough.

LOVE love love our Sunday uni's.

NicJ said...

already with the fouls.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Fish showing some early tenacity. Like it.

NicJ said...

i like fisher attacking, catches people off guard.

NicJ said...

NICE!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

RonRon really knows where to go to track down the offensive board.

NicJ said...

HA!! siddown KG!!

NicJ said...

that was a quick swing.

NicJ said...

haha, refs not letting the C's use illegal screens like two years ago.

Kyle Baker said...

Gasol w the nice soft baseline touch. 13-10.

NicJ said...

Ray Allen is on fire early.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Four collective fouls on the Boston PFs.

Kyle Baker said...

Someone kick Allen's shin, quick.

NicJ said...

pau's gotta dunk that, miss leads to Kobe foul.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

You usually only see a performance like this from a Celtic if they leave the game in a wheelchair earlier.

NicJ said...

starting to look like a game at the Y.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

What the hell was Rasheed doing to Ron?

Kyle Baker said...

Smonk!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I know Sasha hasn't burn a barn-burner, but when the guy's open, give him a shot.

NicJ said...

terrible back to back possesion by Kobe, just held the ball on the offensive end and through up a bad shot twice.

Odom isnt showing up again tonight i guess.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

They need Bynum back on the court.

NicJ said...

great defense this Q lakers.

Lamars outta control.

Kyle Baker said...

Lamar - idiot. Absolutely moronic play.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Fucking Gasol and his missed FT. Now Q7 has a tick in his favor.

NicJ said...

well, we are losing but i dont think we can play worse than we did defensively in that quarter.

Kyle Baker said...

John Wooden would be embarrassed by this first quarter for Lakers. Undisciplned, thoughtless tripe.

Kyle Baker said...

One point in the final 4:06 of the quarter.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

That commercial's just turrible. Turrible.

NicJ said...

the crap continues.

Kyle Baker said...

Ten str8 misses for Lakers? WTF? I don't get to work and forget how to make a phone call or type a memo. How the fuck hard canit be to make at least 1 of 10 shots?

Kyle Baker said...

That's it. I'm changing into my Lakers cap.

Kyle Baker said...

Big Baby needs his diaper changed.

NicJ said...

KG back in, that might actually be good for us.

Steve Sax said...

Come on Lakers!

NicJ said...

Smush Farmar.

NicJ said...

Kobe trying to go one on one is killing us.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Now we're getting somewhere.

NicJ said...

that was quick.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

And now we're going nowhere.

NicJ said...

the C's have been scoring in bursts so far tonight.

NicJ said...

im counting on the C's age kicking in during the later parts of the game.

They give up leads.

NicJ said...

SOMEONE GUARD RAY ALLEN!!!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I really hate Ray Allen.

Kyle Baker said...

@ Nic

Ray who?

NicJ said...

game over.

Kyle Baker said...

Who is this strange Ray Allen you speak of, and why should Lakers guard him?

NicJ said...

not you dusty, the lakers.

Kyle Baker said...

I want to think this isn't my fault, but it could be. Seriously, I changed hats now so we should be okahy once that registers in the sports continuum.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Dammit. That bucket should've counted.

NicJ said...

@Dusty, Lebron?

NicJ said...

why are we leaving ray allen open still?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

This game has been shitty on so many levels.

NicJ said...

well, now we get to hear about how the lakers are in trouble for two days.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Nice steal from Kobe!

Kyle Baker said...

Did NBA order this in the interest of parity?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

If we can cut the lead to 6, I'd say that's a moral victory.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Oh c'mon, let them play. That was barely anything.

NicJ said...

it will be hard to cut the lead sending Allen to the line.

NicJ said...

that is a BULLLLLLLSHITTTTTTTT call.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

WTF HE FLOPPED?!?!

NicJ said...

makeup calls dont work when you already took our superstar out of the game.

NicJ said...

fuck this.

NicJ said...

well on the bright side. Its highly doubtful allen does this again next half.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Okay, a single-digit deficit would be a moral victory here.

NicJ said...

if the lakers can get this to ten its a moral victory.

NicJ said...

MAS FUERTE!

NicJ said...

Allen misses one, what a bum.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

These butchered fastbreaks are scaring the shit out of me.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

If Allen was playing for Philly, they'd be raining boos on him for that miss.

NicJ said...

what can you expect when Ron Ron is running it. haha.

Kyle Baker said...

I could never sit courtside because I would yell all sorts of awful stuff to the refs and opposing players and get ejected within about 6 minutes.

NicJ said...

WOW SUPER KOBE!!!!!!!!

Orel said...

That was Reggie Miller-esque by Kobe!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

But Q7 gets another tick. I'm down 2-0.

Kyle Baker said...

Super, super Kobe
Super, super Kobe
Super Kobe Bryant!

NicJ said...

Lamar needs to get his head together and contribute to this game.

Kyle Baker said...

Wow...anyone catch Kareem and Bill Walton's halftime interviews? #33 was with the Wooden family as late as 3 hrs before Coach passed away. Kareem said Wooden couldn't talk so he just talked to him on the inside.

NicJ said...

The Captin was in spain this past week promoting the NBA. He must have went to see him straight from the airport.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Ron, I love you, but you have to dunk in that situation.

NicJ said...

keep feeding the ball inside, C's bigs in major foul trouble

NicJ said...

Ron Ron finally hits one.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Wow. Celtics have just collapsed in the span of a couple of minutes.

NicJ said...

look at that we made a huge run and didnt even need kobe to leave the game in a wheelchair.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

That was one of those "let 'em play" fouls.

Steve Sax said...

come on lakers

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

What push? What's with the BS calls?s

NicJ said...

god damn the refs are making this hard on kobe.

NicJ said...

if bynum werent injured baby would be going to the hospital now with broken fingers.

NicJ said...

the invisible man back in the game.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Go to hell, Jesus Shuttlesworth.

NicJ said...

at least Allen is going off in LA, if it were in boston we would be forced to look at plenty of shot of his mom on the sideline.

It weirds me out because she looks exactly like him but with blonde hair.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

The Lakers are just trying to screw me out of a t-shirt, aren't they?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Enjoy the shirt, Q7.

NicJ said...

Both team look tired, but guess who is nice and fresh from foul trouble.

Kobe Time!!

NicJ said...

maybe the game will go into triple overtime MLASF

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I'd rather give up the shirt than go through that.

NicJ said...

farmar and sasha in, ruh roh

NicJ said...

another foul on kobe, wtf?

NicJ said...

MACHINE!!!!!!!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I knew Sasha had something in him!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Get Kobe off the court. I know he's fresh, but he's in serious trouble.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Boy, Sasha did everything but shoot the three.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Kobe!!!

NicJ said...

KG didnt get called when he was holding Pau.

NicJ said...

fuck rondo.

NicJ said...

dumb possession.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Well that sucked.

karen said...

I can barely stand this. I'm watcing with my hands covering my eyes peeking out from in between my fingers

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Lakers have to stop here. No choice. A Celtics bucket clinches the game.

NicJ said...

well there you go.

NicJ said...

review it, please.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

HOW THE HELL IS IT THE SAME CALL?

NicJ said...

clearly out on garnet.

thanks refs.

NicJ said...

fuck this, game over.

NicJ said...

already lost homecourt.

Eric the Ice King said...

8 on 5 games really suck....

NicJ said...

what a horrible, horrible way to end a game.

Eric the Ice King said...

Truly turrible....

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I've never seen such horrible refereeing in the last moments of a game.

NicJ said...

Thanks for nothing, Odom.

NicJ said...

that out of bounds call really turned the game around.

NicJ said...

now its a best of five without homecourt.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Ouch. I think I just hit a stud.

NicJ said...

i guess rhythm is better than rest for kobe.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I'm not looking forward to three straight games in Boston.

NicJ said...

Is lamar even making the trip to Boston?

Well, the C's are technically worse at home.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Orlando won Game 4 in Boston, so anything's possible. But nothing revs up those chowder-swilling, Havlicek-loving, tea-dumping, Sam Adams-brewing, Yankee-booing Jersey Shore wannabes like Lakers/Celtics.

NicJ said...

you didnt even win a quarter, MLASF.

NicJ said...

KG, still looks old and hurt. Even after being "called out" by pau. that is going to be a problem for them.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Yeah, tonight wasn't my night at all.

rbnlaw said...

That game got ugly fast.

spank said...

I hate the freakin Keltics. A big F.U. to you A-holes
