Blazers vs. Nuggets tonight at 7.

Huge game in the race for the eighth spot!!!! I can't wait.

I saw the Lakers/Kings game yesterday. the Lakers didn't do anything.

Part of an utterly s*** day for me. I'm outraged. If Kobester is having a crap fit, that's not the way to do it. And Shaq -- I hope he didn't drop the four-letter bomb re: officials.
:mad:

the question I want to ask is: is Kobe really shooting the ball too much? That's what I hear on the T.V. To me, even though Karl and Gary have a decent Jumper and We Know how capable Shaq is(When he gets into his Shaq-Fu Mood), Kobe is the only guy who can break a game open.

I think it's a game-to-game thing about Kobe's shots. Sometimes, he does too much. But frankly, I want him to have the ball in the 4th quarter, because he can hit his "throws," unlike the Daddy.

I agree. I hope Shaq is praticing his Free-Throw Shooting. He'll need it when the Playoffs starts this weekend.

Nuggets are the eighth seed!!!!! Yea!!!!

Coach Buzz just gave the saddest press conference ever. I hope they keep him next year.

It hurt me because the Nuggets made it and the Cavs didn't. but, that's all right. I'm looking forward to next year when the Cavs kick the door down and get a good seed in the playoffs.

Getting ugly in SoCal
 

This morning, the LA Times had an article basically implying that the Kobester had an adult tantrum during the Sacramento-Lakers game -- the adult tantrum being his only taking one shot.

If it's true...repulsive. Then again, I'm a Shaq Diesel aficionada.

Re: Getting ugly in SoCal
 

Not Good if Kobe does a temper tantrum. Shaq Swearing in the Post Game interview(again) as well. They need to stop and concentrate on what's ahead for them.

Re: Re: Getting ugly in SoCal
 

well if it makes them feel any better... the Kings lost last night. :( :mad:

Re: Re: Re: Getting ugly in SoCal
 

Denver woke up right on time.

Re: Re: Re: Getting ugly in SoCal
 

Well, I'm hoping they do better tomorrow night versus Golden State, especially since I'll BE at that game :cool:

Who are the Lakers finishing up their season against? Don't they have to win both of their final games and have Sacramento lose one of their final two (that part's taken care of) in order to tie for the division lead (and wouldn't Sacramento win the tiebreaker)?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Getting ugly in SoCal
 

It really doesn't matter.

What's really important is where the Spurs and Tpups end up.

Course, that's really not important either, as noone in the West can stop the Spurs in playoff time.

One more game until the Wolves win the Western Conference. The Spurs are garbage, I can't wait until we silence every critic in the land...

GO TWOLVES

Re: Re: Re: Re: Getting ugly in SoCal
 

Lakers play Golden State tonight
Lakers play Portland tomorrow Night

San Antonio vs. Denver tomorrow night

Sacremento Must lose to Golden State so either San Antonio or The Lakers can take over the Second Spot in the Western Division.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Getting ugly in SoCal
 

No. :D

I refuse to let my Kings lose when I'm flying up the entire state to go see them play, foregoing any homework that I would likely get done if I was at home working on all the stuff I have due within the next three weeks.

That's all I'm going to say ;) :cool:

Spurs are taking your team down. Just wait.

Freaking Lakers
 

Yeah, we won. But I'm tired of the drama, the simplistic BS. There is no way the team needs to have to expend energy coming back on the Golden State Warriors.
And as for Rick Adelman: Sit your butt down and concentrate on preparing your own team, not trashing the Diesel.
:mad: :p

Holy crap!!! I just checked out the teams going to the playoff and the midwest divison in the western conference is kicking a**. Every team but Utah in the playoffs. Texas is representing with all 3 teams :)

You know San Antonio was going to lead! Go Spurs Go!

Re: Go SPURS Go!!
 

I don't know. even though the Spurs are in a good position, it will be extremely hard for them. We'll find out this weekend when the playoffs start.

Re: Go SPURS Go!!
 

I see Wings 'n More in the near future!! :D

Random side note: I went to Wings 'n More in Corpus this past weekend and ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich. They tried to serve me a fried chicken breast sandwich with wing sauce as a spread. WTF? The chicken is supposed to be saucy. Anyway.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Getting ugly in SoCal
 

Blast it all!!! :mad:

The Kings are the fourth seed based on some *terrible* ref-ing at tonight's game.....the game should have ended with the Kings beating GS by at least 5 points, if not more.

But, I'm still happy I was at the game! :D (Now it's time to start planning to find tickets to go to a game IN Sacramento)

Re: Freaking Lakers
 

This is hard for me to admit. But if the Lakers have a realistic chance at the championship, the Kobester must get the ball in crunch time. Seeing last night's game crystallized it in my mind.
:o

Re: Re: Freaking Lakers
 

what was the score to last night's game between the Lakers and the Trail Blazers?

Re: Re: Re: Freaking Lakers
 

105-104 in two overtimes. Kobester won it at the buzzer, with Theo Ratliff, one of the better citizens on the Jail Blazers, guarding him. Azucar Shaq fouled out. Karl hurt his ankle.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Freaking Lakers
 

Lakers get the third spot in the playoffs. Hopefully, Karl can come back soon. they'll gonna need him.

The Wolves are the best team in the NBA, with the best player in the NBA HANDS DOWN.

And if you are one of the doubters or naysayers, watch and learn, as we waltz to our first NBA championship.

'Nuff said.

There aint gonna be ANY waltzing in the West this year...

The western division playoffs is going to a ugly dogfight.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Freaking Lakers
 

Actually, the Lakers have the second seed in the playoffs, because they won the Pacific division. ;)

Kings have to take on Dallas for the first round....they gotta pull it out! :D

c'mon Lakers...my heart cannot take anymore game sevens. Not to mention Kobe 3 pointers in the END. HOLEY SH*T!!!

Unfortunately, I won't be able to catch some of the games because of work. I'm hoping to catch some of the action this week.

More Laker nerve-wracking.
 

That was a helluva irritating, ugly game. Good defense, though. But how are you supposed to let Houston stay close or lead during that game. And I'm still surprised that Shaq took the last shot, because his inability to make free throws means that he shouldn't be getting the ball in such situations.

Re: More Laker nerve-wracking.
 

Saw the highlights of that game.

Jim Jackson should have made that 3-pointer

Re: Re: Re: Re: Freaking Lakers
 

That's a perfect name for them. Although, Wallace is all bark (did you see him on Real Sports last year with this wife?? she has him in CHECK! she even talked about his momma and he didn't say anything. lol)

But, yeah....GO Kings!!

Chris is making me nervous. He needs a serious confidence booster. He folds under pressure. He's still my man though! But, gosh, I'm missing Bobby. One of them is always hurt during this time. I want a totally healthy team!

Ok Knicks fans, i'm actually rooting for a New York team, and this is how y'all repay me :D

Lakers rebounded from a tough game 1 and looked pretty good last night. Looks like the next round should be a dooozy. Steeltrap, don't get upset when my Spurs end y'all's season again ;) just playin, just playin. But hey, when Shaq can score only 7 and y'all win by like 15 you gotta be happy.

And woohoo, the Mavs are lookin down the barrell of a loaded shotgun. Come on Sactown, don't fold under the pressure.

I'm seein a Spurs-Sactown WCF. Wouldn't that be awesome?
