Good job Fisher and LA in game 3

[Mr October]

I feel like I am almost carbon copying my post after the Cavs crushed Boston in game 3 to go up 2-1, 2 rounds ago.

And again, i am not going to play the blame game.

Sometimes your shots don't fall. Sometimes your opponents hit more shots than you. If the Celtics hit more shots, they would have won last night. This game was there for the taking (unlike game 3 vs Cleveland by the way).

But instead, Fisher hit a bunch of big shots in the 4th quarter, and the Lakers won. Hat tip to the Lakers.

We'll see you in game 4.

Fisher really played great. He deserves a lot of credit, because we were making it hard for everyone else on his team. Some of his pullups and floaters were difficult shots. His outburst was really unexpected. In general, I really don't care for Fisher, but good basketball is good basketball, even when it breaks my heart.

To heck with Derek Fisher.  He gets no congrats from me.

Yeah, Fisher gets under my skin because he is a Laker and not on my team. However, the guy has made the most out of his limited skill set during his career.

Sometimes, ya gotta give credit when credit is due.

In game 4, I wanna see Ray knock down another half dozen or so 3 bombs on Fisher's head. Go Celtics!

I agree. As much as i'm still upset that we lost, I always say, if they're going to beat us, make somebody other than Kobe do it, and that's exactly what happened. In that case, i can't do anything but tip my hat to Fisher for stepping up and winning the game for them.

Lakers have too many players who can step up at any given moment, and they can beat you in any style and tempo of game. Boston's slow and old half-court offense is a walk in the park compared to the run and gun offenses of OKC, Jazz, and the Suns that taxed the Lakers to the limit. The Lakers were tested in every round of the western conference. Boston had to get through one-man shows, that is, D-Wade, Lebron, and Howard. I don't know which teams they play for. They're just all one-man shows.
