Still MIGHTY Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Yeah no luck there.Kobe's foot was inbounds. Artest saw the shot was going to be short. Crashed in. Turn around. In.And not only did Artest show his new commitment on that play, after the game he didn't go out drinking, or clubbing, or whoring it up somewhere. Nope. Ron Ron went straight from Staples and knocked a few sets out at the gym. Way to freaking go Ron. I love it.Laker fans have been waiting all year for his "Laker moment," something that really ingrains him as part of this squad. It wasn't the great defense. It wasn't his team-styled hair. It definitely wasn't his ill-advised shots. It was that game-winning basket. Welcome to the team, Ron. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigga Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Right place right time for Artest is all, as many times as I watched the replay, I would have just hoped Kobe would have a foot on the line they missed, but anyhow....Celtics gotta take care of business tonight, they're tired, hurt, and up against the wall, but they take care of business at the Garden. Go C's!Except for when they don't...like Game 4. On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame. Knits Rockne made up George Tip's death bed speech.

PurpleRush Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 So far I've seen one bad foul called on each team.Everything else being called as it appears it should.No ticky tack stuff. The result so far: Celts by 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEW.ERA Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Yeah the Celts my be the worst team at blowing leads if I heard Stuart Scott right but there is NO way the Magic come back from this one.Rematch of 2008 which isn't such a bad thing as it absorbs two of the biggest fan bases in the NBA and some of the games biggest stars most notably the Black Mamba, but me as a casual NBA fan up in Canada I can't get excited for the Lakers (probably) going to their third straight final. Now if the Suns can do the amazing my interest goes way up. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I like Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett, I am really pulling for Steve Nash and the Suns to win this thing. But as long as it is anyone but the Lakers I'll be content.

TFoA Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 So a team that the Atlanta Hawks dominated all season ends up beating the team that dominated the Atlanta Hawks all season to advance to the Finals. These playoffs just get worse & worse for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordsketor Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Boston fans chant: BEAT LA! one question, is the Western Conference Finals over yet? (Even though Artest made it a step closer to that though), there is a Game 6 tomorrow , so hold your jets PLEASE! Besides you might get Phoenix, for all i care.

They beat a very good Detroit team. They beat a very good Mavericks team that, by the way, also beat a very good Spurs team. The Heat earned their title.Also, the Mavericks would be saying "Hi" instead of the Heat if they had won the finals, so my point stands.

See Red Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 The Heat benefitted from one of the worst officiated games I've ever seen when they were down 2-0 in the series and by 13 points with six minutes left and the officials handed them the game. I think in one of the games D-Wade shot more free throws than the entire Mavericks team.I was cheering for the Heat in those Finals and I thought it was absolutely absurd.But I guess with that said it still would've been a different team winning the NBA Finals.

Seadragon76 Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 You had to figure that Orlando just didn't have enough in the tank. They expended all of their energy putting this series even to a Game 6 that when Game 6 rolled around and Boston stormed out of the gate, the Magic was all but ready to waive the white flag.Now, with Boston winning you could have a decent NBA Finals possibly with either the Lakers or the Suns. With the Lakers, the rivalry and the history would be the key talking points. If Phoenix somehow wins, then you can bring up the possible idea of how Boston can handle the free wheeling offense that Phoenix employs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
