KG needs to start taking the ball to the hole.

he tryin but he dont seem strong enough

he is gettin shut down

He is getting shut down because he is a Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. when the defense plays him rough. That is the only thing i dislike about KG. He seems to back down to tough play and settles for jumpers. >:(

It's disgusting how much more they want it than we do.  Exact opposite as Game 3.  Neither one of these teams are impressing me much at all this series.

What team has been impressive in either conference finals? Lakers played well at home so far but that is about it.

It absolutely baffles me that a group of professional basketball players cannot shoot over 30% for almost 3 quarters.

When Sheed and Hamilton went out with their 4th fouls, that was our window to take the lead.  Instead, the defecit has grown.  Theo Ratliff is really denying KG good positioning.  He's posting up 10 feet out from the elbow.  No way for him to get to the basket from there.

I really think it needs to be in Pierce's hands.  Without Sheed in there to help on D, he should be able to get to the rim and at least draw some fouls.  Or even dish to a cutting Garnett when Ratliff rotates over to help.

And if Ray doesn't start producing something soon, I really think Ainge needs to look at trade scenarios THIS offseason rather than wait until next when his contract is expiring.

Get it to 5-6!!!!

You can not fall with the basketball.  That is a travel.

They showed a great lil clip about how Rip gets open. Picksetters bump him when he go by. Rip bangs him full body and steps back. Rays getting banged around like a pinball.

Pierce has been killing Prince all series whenever he goes at him. Why the heck isn't getting the ball more often every game?

I think the Lakers have been very impressive all playoffs long.  Combine that with them having the best player still playing, if not the best player in the game, I think they have to be the overall favorite out of the final four teams.
