Lamar is wide open but naturally ur gnna try n get that ball to the best player on the floor, which lead to a turnover. But I've also seen Kobe dribbling and Ariza wide open and clapping but Kobe waiving him off. Or last gme when he drove and had LO open in the corner and trevor open up high and he forced a bad shot that got blked and lead overtime. He makes that pass there is no missd courtney lee layup and overtime. Even phil knws that kobe goin off is not good for us for a whole series. We made need that a game here n there but Kobe HAS TO TRUST THIS TEAM.

QFT...

that's what i was afraid of... its good when he gets hot & goes on a streak... but he has to remember that his teammates are quite capable in their ownright...
Pau has killed everybody he's played against
nobody can guard LO on the perimeter/paint
Ariza has been lights out as a 3 pt shooter this postseason
Fisher is streaky but comes thru when necessary

If he would just get them more involved all the time then we would be close to unbeatable...

i mean think about it... the magic set a record for fg% & they still barely won the game...
If kobe hits his FTs like normal... we win the game
If LO gets more involved... we win the game
If Pau gets his deserved amount of touches... we win the game

sure if you call the off arm by Hedo....he does it 85% of the time.

thank you... i thought i was the only one that noticed this...

and youre understating... Hedo does is 100% of the time... its ridiculous that its never been called this series...

[lalakerfan213]

Our D will show up on Thursday. [color= rgb(0, 0, 0)]*crosses fingers*[/color]

 

[franchise3]

Turk throws that arm because Trevor plays that Sasha D.

All I'm saying Sasha be getting called for that press D, but Trevor never does. And in turn, Turk throws that off arm to get him off him

 

[Lizakers]

some of yall are too funny

Orlando shot 62% overall, and 75% on 2-pt field goals

Kobe missed 5 free throws

and the home team BARELY wins by 4 points (really 2 pts if you don't count the last 2 meaningless FT's)

Lakers are CLEARLY the better team and in the driver's seat in this series


good post with the MJ video

Ariza is playing good D on hedo, sasha gets a foul call because he plays that D then reachs in ariza ant doing that

hedo ALWAYS uses that off arm tho

 

[Los Angeles]

I was telling my boy that too Franchise, Trevor was playing too aggressive, exactly like sasha - he constantly got beat and would leave his feet early tocontest a shot from Turk.

Trev also has to realize there's a reason why he gets the ball and he's always open, the Magic will live with him shooting jumpers.

Los Angeles fell in love with him because he was a slasher, and attacked the rim with NO FEAR.

When he gets more Field Goal Attempts than Pau Gasol, then we have a *%@%+$% problem.

 

[raptors29]

Can someone answer this question? Why when Ariza and Odom hack it's not a foul? Bynum does almost the same thing and gets called for a foul.

didnt know he had more FGAs than Pau...

that needs to change immediately...

ideally i'd want Pau to get 15-20 FGAs per game... every game...

 

[lalakerfan213]

The two early fouls were a problem, but he being our second best player must get a significant amount of touches.

 

[licensed to ball]

What the *!++ do you some of you guys want from Kobe and the Lakers? Stop bein so greedy. The magic played the best game of their playoffs and they won. %$!did you guys expect an easy sweeP? Its the !%##*+ finals. gosh people make me so angry, yes im mad...not at the loss, but how some people react to it. I agreewith Bright and Tupac, They beat us, good game magic. move on, game 4 is on thursday lets go.

Trevor: 5-13
Pau: 9-11

Tell me the problem there?

I know the team says, "if you're open shoot it!" ... butI mean there were so many times Ariza tried to do a little too much.

Pau needs AT LEAST 15-20FGA / Gm

 

[the natural mystic]

Tough loss. Still need 2 more wins.

 

[dathbgboy]

Kobe def had an off game. He was lookin like Lebron at the line last night but none the less I expected the Magic to w/ that game, first game of the finals athome after bein down 0-2. I expect Kobe to drop 35+ and LA win by 6+ Thursday

 

[jtan619]

Not worried one bit.

Soak it up Magic fans while you can.

Lakers lost but this series is already determined.
