DID LAMAR ODOM COME TO THE GAME????


HE NEVER, NEVER, NEVER SHOWS UP IN BIG MOMENTS..

He's a role player. I don't expect role players to win games. I expect them to make plays for the frontline guys to win games, setting picks, getting backtap-rebounds, getting hockey assists, etc., etc., etc.

He was 4-9 from the field; that's about what I expect from him. Bynum was 4-8, so the 2 of them combined went 8-17; I can live with that.

But Fish.

My dude.

I've always been a fan of the guy, but he's playing out of his role right now, man. He's the veteran, not the perennial second option. I don't mind him getting a clutch shot opportunity from time to time, but no more than like once a week, man.

... ... ... ... Seriously. No more than that.

I always give him a free pass because of that .4 shot, but I mean...it's not like we won the championship that year so what was the point?

Seriously though, he has been playing awful in the playoffs. Who told him he was supposed to drive into traffic and take wild layups like he's Wade? I don't blame him for the last second attempt, they clearly had it set up for him. But I feel like a lot of the times when he's in the game he disrupts the flow of the offense, especially in transition.


4-9 for LO is inexcusable......

HES BETTER THAN THAT, and not in a M. jackson way either...

Farmar came in and had those 2 passes that led to baskets. Brown can defend better, rebound better and is shooting better. No reason for Fisher tobe playing in the 4h if he isnt doing anything.

 

[eeibaby]

I mean if the Lakers knew the Nuggets were getting calls by driving and flopping then why didn't they follow suit.

They should know how to adjust with the way the game was being called, IMO since the first quarter they been calling ticky tac fouls.

Unlike the game 1 where they were allowed to be more physical.

As a fan, I love how this series is shaping up, exciting & dramatic

even this sounds like a preprogrammed response... my dude, are you a robot?

you got me trippin a little bit right now, i don't know why but your posts are all reading weird to me for some reason.


Anyways - you guys can't blame Fish for the loss, but an NBA player has to draw iron on that shot attempt - that was pretty pathetic, even if it was contested.


Co-sign.

Lakers' fans jump on the bandwagon when he's hitting shots. When he isn't they burn him. He had done a lot for LA this decade.

 

[holdenmichael]

Ariza was not tripped on that jump ball, he landed on Odom's foot and naturally lost control of the ball as he used his hands to stop himself from doing the Ric Flair flop


I saw it as Melo's foot (and forearm in the back) and I guess I can accept him losing that ball because I've seen it happen to other players, but thatplay was as unclutch as his steal in Game 1.

[knightngale]

Ideally, odom should punish kleiza in the post when he is in the game
but we know odom only does that like 2 times a year

I expect Gasol to miss more Fts in the clutch like that
he looks SCARED out there

what did phil say about fisher's shooting?

Look at all you Lakers fans going after yall team throat. Shame on yall. Your team lost get over it. They were outplayed twice in this series, and luckily foryall it's 1-1.

Slap. The refs decided game 1 with a wimpy ++@ reach foul. It is beyond me how lakers fans can place blmae on the refs.


and stop acting like the lakers BLEW it. How about the nuggets TOOK it from them. The 14pt lead was in the damn first half. The nugs faught back.

OH PLEASE SHUT UP...

JUST POINTING OUT MISTAKES , THATS ALL...

NOBODY SAID THEYRE THE WORST TEAM IN THE WORLD OR THAT THE SERIES IS OVER...

IF WE WANNA BE UPSET LET US,..

WHY DO YOU CARE???

 

[rocshoes24]

I'M NOT MAD BUT HE'S JUST CONTRADICTING HIMSELF, NOW IF HE SAID I WANTED TO BE AGGRESSIVE AND ATTACK THE RIM OR WHATEVER THEN THAT'S LEGIT TO ME.

 

[fro b giant]

Lakers lost because they played lazy like they always do when they got a lead. My only question is why did it seem like Kobe barely touched the ball in thefinal 6 minutes???

Ah, someone else to put on ignore.

Either belle155 or OC posted that the Cavs board was filled w/ overreacting fans. Nugget fans were calling for Karl to be fired earlier this year.

This is how fans react.

Complaining about Fisher's poor shooting throughout the playoffs isn't being fair weathered. It's a fair critique that even sports writers arepicking up on.

 

[knightngale]

Phil is an idiot

talking about how he limited Sasha's minutes cause he was looking for h is own shot
What was fisher doing then?
