That boy Artest is ON!..
Posted by: Lakers83 | May 29, 2010 at 06:33 PM
Lakers fans, show class no matter what happens in the 2nd half. I didn't think the Suns could push it this far. I still they are capable of winning this one.
Posted by: Radiobarry | May 29, 2010 at 06:52 PM
Hi Laker fans. Good game so far. Not a lot of D. I would prefer that we play the Lakers (better matchups) but I was hoping that the Suns would take you to 7. I am a little confused that you count the 5 Minneapolis Laker titles in your total titles. Do you actually have lakes in LA?
Do the Atlata Braves count the Milwaukee or Boston Brave titles in their total?

I think Barkley used to be refreshing. But the act has gotten a bit stale.
Posted by: Radiobarry | May 29, 2010 at 06:56 PM
Guess you folks wouldn't be interested in hearing about Hallady's perfect game, or Kendry Morales's broken leg, suffered in the celebration of a walkoff grand slam homer in Anaheim
Posted by: Radiobarry | May 29, 2010 at 07:00 PM
The Celtics have beaten the Lakers 8 times in the finals. The Lakers have managed to win twice.
Posted by: Celtics Ken | May 29, 2010 at 07:05 PM
Are the Celtics the only team left with all American players?
Posted by: Celtics Ken | May 29, 2010 at 07:07 PM
MM
what's the problem????????
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 07:58 PM
thanks sasha. u r the biggest idiot on the planet
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:03 PM
Well, the Suns 6th Man, that is 6th, 7th & 8th - the Refs, let the Suns back in this game!
Last game, Sasha mouths off to Draggic(sp?), then he gets pushed & a double technical is called! But tonight, Draggic walks right up to Sasha, mouths off, bumps him a little & Sasha does throw an elbow, but under the chin & Draggic gets an Oscar as he covered his eyes(in fake pain!) as if that's where he was hit! AND why not a double technical tonight ? Huh Refs ?! SO they get 2 FT's AND the ball; 4 points - thanks Refs!

gasiol facial from barbosa and amare
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:05 PM
Sasha really messed up! This is no time for that BULL!!!!
Posted by: bronxlakerfan | May 29, 2010 at 08:05 PM
Fish has the heart and cojones of a true champion. The man is clutch!!!
Posted by: bronxlakerfan | May 29, 2010 at 08:06 PM
HOLD ON, lAKERS....HOLD ON!!!
Posted by: bronxlakerfan | May 29, 2010 at 08:09 PM
It was a foul, no doubt, but NOT a Flagrant & the Refs have to consider the act - they chose NOT to see that on the replay. So along w/ the poor call, they gave the momentum to the Suns.
That said, Gasol is MIA & after some good minutes & production early, from Bynum - finally - where has he been since ? And Phil should have taken Sasha out at that time. But he got no help on Draggic's 2 drives to the basket - Gasol was late as was Ron on the first one!
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:10 PM
where the #@*$ was the defense on Nash's drive ?!
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:12 PM
So Gasol stands there, back to Amare, AS jumps up inmo him & Gasol is called ?! It's bad enoiugh to play the SUns, but the extra 3 players in striped shirts too ?!
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:15 PM
Nah nah, nah nah nah nah, heeeeeey heeeey - GOOODBYE !
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:16 PM
Didn't think they would do it in AZ. but they came thru, despite another poor night or officiating.
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:19 PM
Gassy felt asleep again
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:22 PM
gassy the MVP. please pinch me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:23 PM
That wasn't Gasol's coverage
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:23 PM
But he has had a miserable game
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:24 PM
Gassy - back to barcelona. NBA is NORT FOR U
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:25 PM
I called Boston over Orlando in 5 or 6 going away.
I called the Lakers in 6 over the Suns.
I'm calling the Celtics over the Lakers in 6.
I'm sorry but I'm usually right about these things.
mike t.
Posted by: Michael C. Teniente | May 29, 2010 at 08:25 PM
Well, you MAY have been right up to now - along with thousandas of others, but not this time - Lakers in 7!
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:27 PM
Hey man,
Any bets out there? I'm taking the Celtics over the Lakers.
Anyone want to make it interesting?
mike t.
Posted by: Michael C. Teniente | May 29, 2010 at 08:30 PM
I have to say I really like Coach Gentry; he's not a sourpuss, or a whiner, & classy enough to kid with Kobe & congratulate the Lakers. Think I saw Amare walk off without shaking any hands.
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:34 PM
Welcome to Armageddon 12.0 Let the superugliness begin.
Posted by: utzworld - THE ONCE AND FUTURE BANNER HOLDER | May 29, 2010 at 08:35 PM
What the hell? Why aren't the Lakers recieving their trophy at center court? Where the hell are they at...under the stands? Total disrespect!!
Posted by: bronxlakerfan | May 29, 2010 at 08:35 PM
uuuummm....
If I'm calling the Celtics in 6 over the Lakers
That means they're closing the Lakers out at
Staples Center, the sight of game 6.
mike t.
Posted by: Michael C. Teniente | May 29, 2010 at 08:35 PM
Sasha should be be fired nOWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:37 PM
Suns 3 pt % 34.6
Lamar's point total; 6.
I'm not sure how many stupid 3's we shot, but i'm going to just go ahead and say it was fewer than them.

NASH - u r a Canadian. Americans r celebrating on MONDAY, Memorial day
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:39 PM
Lakers-Celts: The Lakers need Gasol to find his game, Bynum has to be more consistent, Farmer, Sasha & Brown have to offer up more as the Celtics have a huge size advantage.
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:39 PM
ouch- chill.
Posted by: phred | May 29, 2010 at 08:39 PM
Oops, left out L.O. - he too has to be there every game.
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 08:40 PM
Lakers will sweep the celtics....
Posted by: appolo c. vermont | May 29, 2010 at 08:40 PM
mike T- well, i would say that if the lakers win we can mock you for about four straight years, but we already do that. what do you want to bet?
Posted by: phred | May 29, 2010 at 08:40 PM
ok, ok...Boston over the Lakers in 5 or 6.
mike t.
Posted by: Michael C. Teniente | May 29, 2010 at 08:40 PM
I got to jump on to say that I'm super pumped up to play the C's.
It's on now!
Let's go Lakers!!!!!
Let's do this!
Posted by: Rocky | May 29, 2010 at 08:41 PM
NASH - DOES NOT UNDERSTAND VERNACULAR CULTURE.
memorial day is Important. HERE, not in Canada. we need the right break
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:42 PM
you mock me? lol!
no, you read me.
you don't like what I write so you get sarcastic.
But, yeah, I'm open to a bet.
Any suggestions?
mike t.
Posted by: Michael C. Teniente | May 29, 2010 at 08:42 PM
We are the Los Angeles Lakers, don't ever mess with us! Bring on the Celdicks!
Posted by: King Kobe | May 29, 2010 at 08:42 PM
BLOG CRUE
Great way to wrap up a series. The Suns gave the Lakers a challenge. Kobe and Fish won't let our Lakers forget what happened 2 years ago. Hats off to the Suns team, except amare who walked out like lebron did last year without a handshake.-
RIP- Dennis Hopper. I had the pleasure to briefly meet him twice in LA in the 90s. He was my link to the legend James Dean.
Now let's go get another ring for Charles Barkley!
Colorado loves our World Champion Lakers!

Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:45 PM
I have an idea.
If the Celtics win the Championship
the next day's post will read:
ONCE AGAIN, MIKE T. IS RIGHT!
If the Lakers win the championship
let me know what you would want from
me.
How about it MM?
Just to let you know I've already made
the title post before...so it's no
big deal. Just fun.

Pau and Bynum both played bad and we still won.....the best team usually wins in the end....not like football ("On any given Sunday")

Posted by: justanothermambafan | May 29, 2010 at 08:47 PM
1. People acknowledging Kobe's place in the game. Sweet.
2. Michael Cooper talking smack to Boston. Sweet.
3. Alvin Gentry - a class act.
Posted by: EJK | May 29, 2010 at 08:48 PM
lol magic phil - you KNOW you're exaggerating... LOL!!
Posted by: justanothermambafan | May 29, 2010 at 08:49 PM
Who would have thought when we traded shaq for Lamar and Caron,........Lamar is very essential, not a great game today, but a "W"......I wonder what Shaq and Lebron are feeling now.....

phered
a much as i enjoy your post, BB wise u understand NOTHING. stick to Faulkner. i can't believe you did not recognize the most famous portrait of your MUSE, Beckettt. it shows how OBTUSE u r, especially about BB.
stick to literature and bipolarity

Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:51 PM
mike t- well, i really don't most of the time. and saying 'Kwames has great calves!' and 'fools gold!" stopped getting a laugh sometime last year. but they were great times, so props for that.
so far, nobody who offers to bet me has ever actually agreed to any terms, so you can make some suggestions. I don't bet money, just a thing i have, but suggest anyway otherwise.
Posted by: phred | May 29, 2010 at 08:51 PM
ouch- sorry you feel that way. It was nice talking to you.
Posted by: phred | May 29, 2010 at 08:53 PM

Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 08:54 PM

here, lets try something;
WHOOOOOOOOOOOO! WE WON! WHOOOOOOOOOOO!
Posted by: phred | May 29, 2010 at 08:55 PM

Don't know, don't care. Are you a racist? That's a simple yes/no question.

NEVER MVP
NEVER OPTION 2
JUST A PATHETIC EURO
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 09:05 PM
ding ho (Hopper's death), aware of the news....I would bet it's Kevin Ding......I checked out the old Ding Ho when he said he had a restaurant in Prattville....it looked pretty run down.....
I can remember when Fisher was young, he was always trying to draw charges, so he was a bowling ball on the floor, he had no shot, one year he had a leg injury, came back with a super sweet high arcing jumper, as I say sometimes "Pain is Good", because maybe if he were not injured he would not have developed a pretty killer (timing wise) jumper.
Posted by: humanomaly (29 minutes) | May 29, 2010 at 09:05 PM
phred - i will drink some water
how about U drinking some water and some of your pills also. u missed the the past few days
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 09:07 PM
ouchhhh - wow man - you are rolling.
I'm with you though - very happy the Lakers are back to the Finals!

Dragici Tragic in the post game
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 09:08 PM
human - check out the post above. It's Hugo Boss. Same intro - same ending.
Posted by: justanothermambafan | May 29, 2010 at 09:08 PM
ouchhhhhhhh -- take it easy. Just be happy we won, no need to be insulting people on the blog or on the team. We can't trade any of the guys on the team at this point, including your favorite Laker Pau Gasol whom you affectionately nickname Gassy! :-)
Posted by: King Kobe | May 29, 2010 at 09:10 PM
NASHY - where is Game 7??????????????????
guaranteed??????????????????
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 09:12 PM
ouch- do you think i would mention having a mood disorder if i was afraid somebody would bring it up?
hey, i don't mind talking to people, and i know they are more than a few comments on the internet, and i figure you are upset about something. not sure what, but i'm sorry about that. hey, the lakers just won the conference championship, and i want to talk about it with my friends on here. Join in, or not, but try not to monopolize the conversation with yelling about stuff.
Posted by: phred | May 29, 2010 at 09:12 PM
MM
did U banned me because i call u being biased against the Lakers. you BB IQ is equal to NONE. go to the Cavs blog. U will LEAD the HYPE
Posted by: ouchhhhhhhh | May 29, 2010 at 09:13 PM
I'd trade Dragic for Sasha straight up in a heartbeat! I can't believe how incredibly stupid Sasha's play in the 4th Q. was! Granted, Dragic flopped and got away with it, but Sasha has to show more sense and poise than that.

Nash played great and the Phx. bench has a lot of versatility and feistiness. Lakers were tested but came through. GOOOOOO LAKERS!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR LAKERS AND TO ALL THE LOYAL LAKER FANS ON THE BLOG!!!
Posted by: bronxlakerfan | May 29, 2010 at 09:16 PM
It was a dumb foul by Sasha, but it was not flagrant !
And from my prior post:
Last game, Sasha mouths off to Draggic(sp?), then he gets pushed & a double technical is called! But tonight, Draggic walks right up to Sasha, mouths off, bumps him a little & Sasha does throw an elbow, but under the chin & Draggic gets an Oscar as he covered his eyes(in fake pain!) as if that's where he was hit! AND why not a double technical tonight ? Huh Refs ?! SO they get 2 FT's AND the ball; 4 points - thanks Refs!
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 09:17 PM
Thanks bronx & back atcha! I have followed the Lakers back to the days of West, Goodrich, Egan, Hariston, Bridges, Hawkins 1 & 2, etc. !
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 09:19 PM
Haha! Sasha and Dragic just made up!
Posted by: King Kobe | May 29, 2010 at 09:21 PM
dallas - this is pretty much what i'm saying. but i think the refs were trying to put a lid on it. I'll wait and see, i wouldn't be surprised if the foul gets rescinded, they seem to be doing that a lot these days.
anyway, i mentioned this on the chat, but i wanted to harp on it again; it's an elimination playoff game. you are at home, you are a team that is reasonably experienced and you have a veteran leader in steve nash. Why do you have to wait until one of our bench players taps one of your bench players to get fired up and 'get momentum?' how can you not be playing as hard as you can?
Posted by: phred | May 29, 2010 at 09:21 PM
I agree just as it's fun to hear from then all & I love to watch & listen to Charles - did you see him learning how to play better, allegedley, golf with Hank Haney ? Hilarious series!
Posted by: Dallas | May 29, 2010 at 09:22 PM
