what a horrible game 6, i expected the Lakers to show up especially kobe (way to go with the MJ comparisons) but they didn't what a shame, that i wasted an hour of my life watching such a boring game, a good hour i would never get back. By the way, did anybody notice David Stern, NBA commissioner being booed before the commemoration ceremony? OUCH!!! |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by JeSoul(f): 2:06pm On Jun 18, 2008 |
boring ke? for who? me I enjoyed every single second of the humiliation we dished out. I usually feel for the losing team but after the way they've whined and complained all series long I have no sympathy for them at all. Since they said we could not do it without the refs, we went out and proved them wrong - to the tune of a 39 point beatdown! Yeah Stern is not really a beloved guy in the NBA. But I was suprised they booed him so much. I think they just wanted to get on with it and hear from their champs! The party is on in Beantown! I'm planning on going to the parade 2moro, anybody else going? |

Yea! i really felt sorry for my Lakers supporting friends who put all their life in them and strongly believed in lakers don't really know how to console them |

Click_Bang:Dont be myopic no team would have survived the Celtics i saw last night.K.G,Ray Allen and Paul Pierce cmon one man can only do so much why dont you blame his team-mates too for not playing any D |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by JeSoul(f): 7:05pm On Jun 18, 2008 |
A-40:yeah I agree. All series long as soon as kobe put the ball on the floor to go inside, the defense collapsed on him forcing him to kick it out to a teammate or retreat behind the 3-pt line. The loss is not solely on his plate. . .though I think the LA times headline read "MVP or MIA?" - ouch! Though all series kobe was less than below what we all know he can do, Boston's defense is the main culprit and the lakers lack of it and gasol's softness, odom's inconsistency, raddy's air balls |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by A40(m): 7:17pm On Jun 18, 2008 |
@Je-soul Yeah Kobe definitely doesnt like being hassled the way the Celts did i remember telling one NBA neophyte on NL that Kobe needed to work on his J as the Celts wouldnt let him go Sportscenter on them.Gasol and Odom combined where poor zero D and their offence was more erratic than Nigeria's power supply as for Radmanovic he shot so many bricks that he would be able to rebuild the World Trade in minutes it was ridiculous even my Grandma in her 70's would not have shot so bad |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by ClickBang: 7:53pm On Jun 18, 2008 |
A-40: THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME. IN 2004, CHOKIE CRYANT HAD ONE OF THE WORST FINAL PERFORMANCES IN NBA HISTORY, DESPITE PLAYING WITH 3 FUTURE HOFERS. HE SHOT A WHOPPING 38% THAT SERIES. Kobe Bryant, L.A. Lakers, 2004 Lakers vs. Pistons -- Bryant's PER 14.2 With his feud against Shaq escalating and the series getting away from the Lakers, Bryant began taking whatever shot struck him. Mostly, they struck the rim -- he shot 38.1 percent and had nearly as many turnovers (18) as assists (22) as Detroit romped in five games. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/playoffs2008/columns/story?columnist=hollinger_john&page=FinalsPerformances-Worst |

@Click_Bang You are a Kobe hater he was still their best player in the series and he was up against Paul Pierce,K.G and Ray Allen tell me which Laker player stepped up to the plate how many of them upped the ante when the chips where down looking at the 06 finals against Dallas some people give Dwyane Wade all the credit for their win but they overlooked a certain Alonzo Mourning who was on fire in games 5 and 6 with some amazing blocks and marquee defending. On the 04 series please tell me who didnt suck?Shaq was poor and so was Malone so why blame just Kobe? |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by ClickBang: 8:21pm On Jun 18, 2008 |
A-40: EXCUSES ARE ALL THE KOBE KIDS HAVE Their hero, the fraud Kobe Bryant, lets them down at every turn. I would be bitter too if I had just found out Santa wasn't real. |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by A40(m): 6:01pm On Jun 19, 2008 |
@Click_Bang That doesnt in anyway tarnish his greatness so you are entitled to your opinion |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by SeanT21(f): 8:24pm On Jun 19, 2008 |
The Lakers got murdered by the Celtics. Period. After the game it was funny to see Kobe pushing through the crowd to run away to the locker room. where is MYTEMPID when you need him. |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by JeSoul(f): 12:35am On Jun 24, 2008 |
SeanT21: LOL. . . me sef I wonder where he is. |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by onyinye2(f): 12:38am On Jun 24, 2008 |
The Lakers deserved to win. but i will give some respect to the Celtics. at least they give me hope that the Houston Rockets have a chance to win the playoffs if the Celtics can. |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by JeSoul(f): 2:14am On Jun 24, 2008 |
onyinye2:how so? Everyone knows defense wins championships and the lakers played none, they deserved exactly what they got - a loss. |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by A40(m): 8:41pm On Jun 24, 2008 |
Kobe aint superman and i agree he didnt have a fantastic series but who else stepped up besides Vujacic in Game 3 truth is his team mates let him down and they did miss a Big man and Radmanovic my goodness he was probably the worst starter in the entire series |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by JeSoul(f): 11:21pm On Jun 24, 2008 |
A-40:LOL. . . no one on the lakers team stepped up, there's plenty of blame to go round. However people are downing kobe becos everyone expected him to take over, and he played average at best, plus especially with all the MJ comparisons. |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by SeanT21(f): 12:05am On Jun 25, 2008 |
JeSoul: No More MJ comparison after that horrible game he played. |

Echeozo: Shaq is being true. |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by JeSoul(f): 2:06pm On Jun 25, 2008 |
SeanT21:yup true. But I suspect it has only put those talks to rest for now. . . once he's back in the playoffs, they begin again. Echeozo:That rap was funny! lol. . . to me it did not seem meanspirited, the art of freestyle requires you to diss your competitor though at the same time, I believe there's some lingering dislike between the 2 of them. "you know how I be, last week Kobe couldn't do without me" - funny |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by A40(m): 6:46pm On Jun 25, 2008 |
Kobe aint no MJ thats for sure no one is comparing anyone to The Legend His Royal Airness but the Celtics where simply the best team in the season they where totally dominant even completing the dreaded Texas triangle and sincerely tell me who was as complete as the Celts? when you have K.G Ray Allen and Paul Pierce in a team come on one man can only do so much Shaq is just trying to be funny since no one is talking about him wasnt he there when the Pistons whooped their ass in 04? How did he help the Suns cause this season? would he have won his 4th ring without D.Wade? |
Re: Nba Finals: Boston Celtics Champions. by iice(f): 6:51pm On Jun 25, 2008 |
Hah was tired of the lakers always winning anyways. Good for the Celts. K.G! |
