Well, that should have silenced even the dumbest of the MVP doubters as last night Kobe ( 39 points ) almost single-handedly forced San Antonio into an early summer vacation.

So Boston or Detroit?

You know you want to see a Lakers/Celtics series .... admit it.

Phil Jackson doesn't get enough credit for his coaching.

The NBA sure wants a Celtic/Laker final after seeing the " no call " on the spurs the other night.

Refs making "questionable" calls to alter games? In the NBA? Nooooo. That'd never happen.

But, I wanna see Phil Jackson win one more title. I also wanna see the Celtics take Kobe to school and hand his ass to him. Either way, I win.

Congrats! Cool

Never said Kobe didn't deserve it, so I'm not in that category. Kobe has been playing the best he ever has there is no denying that.

I did say I found it funny after he whined in the pre-season, blasted mgmt and demanded a trade. Pissed off a lot of laker fans and you know that is true.

Now all of a sudden he's the darling of LA again, but that's not surprising.

Yes I want the Celtics and will be rooting for the East much to the chagrin of family & my old hometown friends.....hehehhe

yea that was pretty bad but Barry screwed up BAD by putting the ball on the floor. Ginobli would have gone straight for the shot and flopped bad and got three shots!

I was actually rooting for the Spurs for the first time ever, but I must say it was nice to see them get SCREWED by the refs for once after they stole our championship last yr.....heheheh

Fish def fouled him. But then .... maybe it was karma coming back to the Spurs for so many of Gi-floppy's academy award acting performances.

The refs weren't exactly doing Kobe any favors either. Haven't checked it but I thought I heard the ESPN guy mention Kobe only went to the foul line 11 times for the entire SA series?

Vs 68 times in the Utah or Denver series?

Can't say I've been impressed at all by Boston.

Boston Three Party? Poser party more like. Garnett has been the only one to show up consistently. They're still winning so I guess that's all that counts but just not impressed by them.

I wonder how they even would have fared in the Western Conference?

They would have got their ass handed to them in the west. I want to see the Lakers over the Celtics in the final. The Celtics are young but they might be a good match.

Allen 32, KG 31, Pierce 30, Casell 38, PJ 38.....young as a group I guess.

Ray ray is my boy but I dont see them taking LA.

On the San Antonio "no call" he shouldn't of brought the ball back down if he would of jump through and shot he would of got the call.

I hope Boston wins only because the Faker fans get on my nerves. Lenny knows the ones, the folks who that break out their crisp new Laker flags only during title runs the same ones who cancelled their season tkts after Shaq left.
