When that same player had been shooting over 50% in the last two series it is successful defense.

I don't really care for either team, but I don't need to see Kobe and Phil win anything else, so I'm pulling for Boston. Plus Rondo is quickly becoming one of my favorite players in the game. He's so nasty. Aside from Chris Paul (coming off of serious knee surgery), I'm not sure there's any point guard in the league I'd take over him.

Celtics defense stepped it up a notch and Lakers defense was no where to be seen. Next 2 r at home, but everyone not named Bryant in a Lakers jersey has to stop standing around hoping Kobe will save the day and hit atleast a few shots. But that's a point Jackson is probably telling the team that despite a porous defense and no one other than Kobe scoring more than 12 points, they only lost by 6.

In real sports involving teams with point contribution from individuals, it does matter. I mean, shit we talk about it all the time in relation to the skins the last couple years haha.

Ok I hear you the Celtics will keep piling up the six point wins and the Lakers can feel good that they only lost by 6.


What does the NBA Championship trophy "that we only lost by six" look like? I have never seen it.

You keep using historically facts or comments like we only lost by 6 to keep making yourself believe the Lakers are going to win it but the Celtics just keep rolling.

This coming from the guy who jumped off his own teams bandwagon after game 1 haha. You know what, I will still keep believing my team can rebound from 2 tough loses on the road involving poor performances by everyone not named Bryant and use home court to win the series, because that's what real fans do.
