nelson was pretty sh*t this game but i gotta say the elbow by kobe was definitely on purpose.

yeah i stopped watching NHL after my home team became really sh*tty...(toronto maple leafs btw)

Re: World Sports News & Discussion

would've like to see Cavs vs Lakers, would've been a Lebron vs Bryant showdown. But Magic, ruined that hopeful prospect. What the Magic lacks is putting in baskets effectively, they rely to heavily on Howard which Lakers coach has this covered with double teaming Howard all the time. While Magic trying but hardly double teaming Bryant always has Gasol to back him up. Not a Lakers fan, I'm a Rockets fan, but I prefer Lakers over Magics.
 
Re: World Sports News & Discussion

Magics are one of the best three point shooting teams in the league. You have Dwight, drawing double teams and dishing it back out as well as a 6'10 ball handler with excellent court vision and an ability to knock down threes himself. Finally, Lewis is definitely one of the league's premier shooters of the trifecta.

Yet they are loosing 3-1, and the margin is pretty big in an NBA Final. First round lost with 25 points, 2nd round 5 points, 4th round 8 points. From all 4 games I've watched Dwight Howard being ineffective against Lakers defense. They might have good statistics prior to the finals but its different when your in it. Magics just aren't playing the same.

That's right. The Magic have their "Backs against the wall" No where to go. Their task..defeat the Mighty LA Lakers three games in a row..and two of those would have to be done in LA. Impossible I say.. I hope the Lakers win tonight to minimize the rioting by knuckleheads in LA..:confused:

The Magic cant do it...they cant last long enough. Its impossible for them to win the championship. Lakers will win for sure. Listening to this match on radio, so tense. XD

Re: World Sports News & Discussion

And the Lakers win the championship! Congratulations to the LA Lakers! They've come a long way and finally they win. Magic was a good team, they did well. But they came up against a fierce team and the unstoppable Kobe. I was disappointed in Dwight Howard's performance, wasn't as good as before. Ah well. Good Game. Let's hope next years NBA is just as interesting.
