Celtics (35-11) at Lakers (33-14) 1/30

[Neurotic Guy]

Just finished the game on DVD.  Wish I had watched live to join the thread.  What a 4th quarter performance. Wow!   KG  was, dare I say it, dominant on the glass. What a terrific win in the land of evil.

I don't like those long jumpers by BBD.

I hate those too. There was that one maybe in the 2nd quarter where he took a long jumper with an open Ray Allen right beside him. He missed and even if he had made it I wish KG had walked up to him and been like "See this guy? He's your teammate. His name is Ray Allen. He's kinda like the best shooter that ever lived. If you ever take a jump when he is way open next to you again I will kill you so don't do it because I don't want to kill you"

"Seriously, I know I always look like I want to kill you, but I actually love you buddy. You make me giggle, or you would if I ever giggled. But seriously, I could pu.ch a hole in your chest, reach down and tear out your femur, but I don't wanna. So seriously, pass the ball to Ray."

Traveling all day, just finished watching on DVR.  Great, great game, very well played until we broke them in the 4th.

So many guys had great games but the story of the game was our bigs wearing down theirs.  Gasol and Bynum went from strong first halves to a weak, complacent second.  They looked exhausted.  This is a great sign if we meet em in the playoffs.

A remarkable display of tenacity by the Good Ol' Boys in Green today in overcoming the five on eight odds against the Celtics Joey Crawford is a complete disgrace to the NBA :< The Celtics were spectacular in the 4th qtr winning every critical battle and scoring every basket. Big Baby Shaq made father Shaq proud with that layup between Gasol and Bynum in the 4th qtr stretch. And Ray Allen eletrified the Celtics fans in the crowd with his clutch 3 point shooting . There was nothing that Kobe could do about it. Gasol became Gasoft and Ron Artest cowered worse than Freddie Mitchell in Super Bowl Thirty Nine. When Jerry West all but declares the Laker run over that cannout be a good sign for the Lakers, Not at all The only regret I have about today is that it is a Sunday in January instead of Father's Day

On that note, I would advise my BCP brothers and sisters to reset the odometer to Zero and focus on the Sacremento Kings who knocked off New Orleans last night to validate their fine win over the Lakers the night before.

Wow, looking at the boxscore we outrebounded them 43-30, which is great, but out-assisted them 34-10  which is incredible.  7 guys with at least 2 dimes.  Amazing ball movement.

just wait until delonte gets back....and JO....and perk gets into shape...and the Cs sign Sheed...going to be able to throw 5 7 footers at LA

[hpantazo]

gotta not let down against sacramento next game though, the heat are within 3 games of us and Cousins has been a beast lately.

[barefacedmonk]

As expected quite a few Laker fans are blaming Artest's injury for this loss...lol.

that and crawford's strained arms preventing him from calling more fouls. They didn't feel bad dumping on us when they beat us in the finals with a one legged KG and no Perk.

LOL! All the talk last year was how gasoft was now "tough" because he lifts weights.

I know...a lot of them are ready to trade him already..lol. I love it when the Faker nation is miserable.

It's sad, really.

Pau Gasol was not the reason LA lost today. Kobe tried to put the team on his back, and once again failed.

He did not run the offense through Gasol, which makes them a better team when they do.

The way that KG was today, though - even if Kobe tried to diversify, it wouldn't have helped much.

I think I saw about 6 "ESPN Trade Machine" formulas including Pau Gasol when I was observing Silver Screen and Roll.

They are throwing the man under the bus, and it ain't right.

I'd dare Laker fans to throw Kobe under the bus, just once. He was the reason they lost this one.
