The Lake Show also were a big thorn in the Suns side during the 2006/2007 campaign. The result? A 4-1 asswhooping. Kobe went home in the first round.

The playoffs are an entirely different ballgame than the regular season.

[LAglamrocker]

NBA fans are so desperate, the Suns are going to end King Kobe's title reign?

wasn't Denver supposed to take down the Lake show this year? gone in the first round!

wasn't Dallas supposed to take down the Lake show?..gone 1st round! ha ha nice 2nd seed choke!

wasn't San Antonio supposed to take down the Lake show?..gone

so yea, some team had to make it to the Western Finals..and its the Suns, ha,ha the 4th team that has 0% chance of beating the Lake show

[grishnak boss]

DID YOU JERKS WATCH THE GLORIOUS, METHODICAL AND SADISTIC DISMANTLEMENT OF THE UTAH LOSS?!?!?

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!



AS AN ANNUAL EVENT, LOS ANGELES LAKERS STROLLS ONCE AGAIN THROUGH FAG TOWN TO REMIND ALL THESE FUCKIN' MORMONS WHO IS BOSS - JUST TO MAKE IT CLEARER, KOBE AND PAU DECIDED TO WIPE 'EM OUT iN 4 STRAIGHT -

TAKE THAT ASSHOLES!!!

NOW WHO'S THE NEXT PUNY CHALLENGER?....OH YEAH, FLASH IN THE PAN PHOENIX SCUMS, AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!

THOSE LOSERS LOOK LIKE DWARFS NEXT TO BYNUM, PAU AND ODOM - FROM THE LA TIMES:

Phoenix is not big. Amare Stoudemire averaged 20 points and nine rebounds against the Lakers this season, but he has little banging help inside.

"It's Stoudemire and Frye ... is it Frye?" asked Artest.

Yeah, not much strength there, it will basically be Stoudemire matched against Gasol, Odom and the rested knee of Bynum, and it won't even be close

LAKERS IN 6, IF NOT IN 4, HAHAHA!!!

ORLANDO WILL JUST IMPLODE AND CHOKE AS USUAL - THAT FREAKIN IDIOT WANNA BE SHAQ STILL HAS SOME WAYS TO GO.

[Rainbow Bright]

Lopez is returning

[grishnak boss]

SORRY, LO-WHO?....SOUNDS LIKE THE ARENA JANITOR.

[Skate4RnR]

Are we talking about Brook? That shit stain may have been something at Stanford but he ain't nothing but a cumrag in the NBA.

[Rainbow Bright]

Robin Lopez. 59% shooter from the floor and a decent defender to boot. As well as adding a Willis Reed factor that's always good for a win (See game 4 of Suns/Blazers when Roy came back)

[grishnak boss]

AND LEBRONZE JAMES IS HEADED TO N.Y, BWAHAHAHA!!!!

THIS MUST BE THE ONLY JOB WHERE YOU FAIL TO PRODUCE AND GET A BIGGER CONTRACT

FROM ESPN BOSTON:

The only thing more shocking than the position Boston finds itself in is how the team got here. In a seesaw series in which the Cavaliers won Games 1 and 3, and Boston rallied back in Games 2 and 4, Cleveland seemed poised to rise up again Tuesday.

Instead, Boston chased the Cavs straight off their own playground. The Celtics limited James to a mere 15 points on 3-of-14 shooting over nearly 42 minutes of action. In possibly the biggest and most defining game of James' career -- not to mention, potentially his last in Cleveland -- they made the league's two-time MVP look supremely mortal, particularly after he didn't register a single field goal in the first half.

Five of the six Celtics who landed in double figures matched or topped James' output for the night overall.

The Celtics looked like a 12-man juggernaut; the Cavaliers looked like a team waiting for a player to rescue them. It didn't happen.

I HOPE IT'S THE GODDAMN CELTICS BACK TO THE FINALS SO THEY CAN GET THEIR GERIATRIC ASSES HANDED BACK BY THE MIGHTY LA LAKERS!!!

[grishnak boss]

"Puppets aside, let’s have a discussion about legacy. LeBron James’s legacy. It’s taking a hit. So we’re only seven years into his career, a relatively small sample size. But Tuesday’s flameout in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference semifinals – the franchise’s worst home playoff loss in history – should raise some red flags and force some tough questions. And this is the biggest one: Is he cut out for this yet? Is James cut out to win when the stakes are at their highest? When will he be ready to truly assume his place among the game’s best, the kind of recognition that only championships can provide? I’m beginning to wonder. Winning in the playoffs is hard. But the great ones do it, and do it repeatedly against top-notch competition. If James’s Cleveland Cavaliers can’t get past the aging Celtics, and they are hanging by a thread down 3-2 going into Thursday’s Game 6 in Boston, this is what his last two seasons will look like: Two league MVP awards. Two years leading his team to the best record in the NBA. Zero trips to the NBA Finals. That doesn’t compute."

in unimportant, unrelated news, the Nets, from ESPN:

Prokhorov gets control of Nets

Associated Press

NEW YORK -- The first step in what the New Jersey Nets hope is a quick turnaround is in place.

New owner Mikhail Prokhorov is eager to get started on the rest.

"For those who are already fans of the Nets and the NBA, I intend to give you plenty to cheer about," the Russian billionaire said in a statement.

The Nets are now officially the Nyets.

Prokhorov's purchase of the team was approved Tuesday by NBA's owners, who welcomed the first non-North American into their club.

Russia's richest man agreed to buy 80 percent of the Nets and 45 percent of an arena project in Brooklyn from developer Bruce Ratner late last year. Final approval of the sale was delayed until the state of New York had taken over all the land seized under eminent domain at the site of the team's Barclays Center in Brooklyn. The Nets expect that transaction to close Wednesday, and the long-delayed 18,000-seat arena is to open in 2012.

The Nets hope Prokhorov's wealth -- estimated at $9.5 billion through his banking and metals businesses -- will be used to help them bounce back from a 12-70 finish that included an NBA-worst, 18-game losing streak to open the season.

The team was ruined by cost-cutting moves under Ratner, who signed off on the trades of Jason Kidd, Kenyon Martin, Vince Carter and Richard Jefferson. There's money to spend now, with an estimated $23 million in salary cap room heading into free agency this summer, when LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh are among the players who could be available.

Prokhorov already has proven he can build a winning basketball team, owning a share of European power CSKA Moscow.

"We anticipate that his passion for the game and business acumen will be of considerable value not only to the Nets franchise but to the entire NBA," commissioner David Stern said.

A person with knowledge of the voting results told The Associated Press that NBA owners voted 29-0 to approve the purchase. One team did not vote. The sale had to be approved by three-fourths of the NBA's owners.

The person requested anonymity because the voting totals were not released.

"Today's vote will give the NBA a greater global reach and bring a multitude of new fans to the game of basketball," Prokhorov said."

The next step for the Nets comes next week with the NBA draft lottery, in which they have a 25 percent chance of winning to earn the No. 1 pick and can finish no worse than fourth. Stern previously predicted Prokhorov could represent the team at the lottery.

Prokhorov's arrival in the NBA already has brought plenty of attention to the long-ignored franchise. The 6-foot-6 tycoon was an avid basketball player in his school days, is a fixture in glitzy European resorts and once was held in France for four days of questioning -- but never charged -- in a prostitution investigation.

He's now at the front of a team that will spend the next two years playing in Newark before the anticipated move to Brooklyn. Prokhorov hopes he has built a winning team by then.

"Mikhail and his team will bring tremendous innovation and excitement to the NBA," Ratner said.

Barkley also called him out on TNT, comparing him to Karl Malone and Ewing in terms of players that routinely choked in the post-season.

[bang]

Celtics are gonna take it again this year,

HOPEFULLY THAT GERIATRIC TEAM WILL REACH THE FINALS - LA'S A GIVEN, OF COURSE - AND THEY'RE GONNA GET CRUSHED THIS TIME

ALL THIS TALK ABOUT WHERE KING LEGONE WILL LAND NEXT SEASON IS HILARIOUS

FUCK HIM AND CLEVELAND - THAT CITY IS LIKE A 3RD WORLD COUNTRY IN THE MIDST OF CIVILIZATION!!!

[grishnak boss]

KING LEGONE - MVP, BEST RECORD IN THE SEASON, BLABLABLA ELIMINATED BY A BUNCH OF OLD TIMERS, BWAHAHAHA!!!

HOPE YOU STUPID NEW YORKERS GET HIM



IT'LL BE PATRICK EWING ALL OVER AGAIN, AHAHAHA!!!

[grishnak boss]

LeBron posted a triple-double in Game 6:

27, 19 and 10,

Almost Rondo numbers

But who knew nine turnovers would nearly make it a quadruple-double.

[grishnak boss]

I'm embarrassed, cya losers.

[Rainbow Bright]

Even funnier is that he, and the team as a whole pretty much just said "Fuck it. We Quit." when they still had a shot to send it to OT (Down 9 with a minute and a half left)

Bravo LeBron. You have shat the bed the last two games in an epic sense. Even out-pooping the epic Blazers choke job against the Lake Show in 2000. You got beat by three geezers in Ray Allen, Sheed and a one-legged KG. Have fun being Patrick Ewing 2.0. Oh wait, Ewing never quit.

Maybe, just maybe if LeQuitter keeps his ego in check, shuts the fuck up and becomes a second banana to Pookie, Kobe or perhaps Steve Nash, he might get a ring. On his own will never happen. Hell I hope the Knicks sign him just to relive the 90's Knicks. Except with less badassery due to a lack of Charles Oakley.

IT WAS EMBARRASSING...

[grishnak boss]

ANYWAY, ENOUGH DERAILING THIS THREAD, WHICH IS ABOUT A CHAMPIONSHIP CALIBER TEAM AND THE REAL MVP.

HOW MANY GAMES WILL THE PHOENIX SCUMS LAST?

[grishnak boss]

AAAAAAAAAAAAND WHAT HAPPENS?........LOS LAKERS PWN LOS SCUMS

"Lakers' Kobe Bryant is a real drain on Suns

"What do you think?''

It was the enigmatic, emphatic question that answered a question.

It was Kobe Bryant's response to The Times' Brad Turner last week when Turner wondered whether the Lakers' consecutive postseason horrors against the Phoenix Suns burdened Bryant.

"What do you think?" Bryant said, glaring.

Well, Monday night, after watching a golden rage pour out of him like pure lava from jagged and smoldering rocks, here's what I think.

This is Kobe with a bigger chip on his shoulder than in his knee. This is Kobe holding a memory as painful as his finger. This is, on or off the court, the most unstoppable Kobe that anybody can encounter.

This is payback Kobe.

"It's never personal with me," Bryant said late Monday, smiling.

Which means it's always personal, and certainly against a Suns team Bryant had just knocked silly with his baggage in the Lakers' 128-107 victory at Staples Center in the Western Conference finals opener.

You want to pin the Lakers' previous postseason failures against the Suns under his watch on him? Pin this — 40 points in 35 minutes on 23 shots, wow after wow after wow.

"Part of it was to show them that we're a different team than the one that they face,'' he said, clearly referring to previous playoff losses. "It was important in Game 1 to show them that this was going to be a fight.''

You want to think his drained right knee is too sore? Drain this — 21 points in a third quarter in which he attempted 16 field goals and free throws and missed only three.

"Just lost weight,'' he said of the effects of draining on his knee, a procedure that The Times reported occurred earlier this spring. "Lost a couple of pounds.''

You think he's too old to hang against a running team? Run with this —leading by seven at the start of that third period, he scored on a fadeaway, a floater, a three-pointer, a layup, two jump shots, three free throws and a dunk in the first nine minutes.

He showed the grinding teeth. He showed the angry stare. He would dribble into Grant Hill's face, then fall backward for two. He would muscle around Jared Dudley, then fall forward for two more.

"He hit some shots,'' said the oft-beaten Hill, pausing, correcting himself. "He hit some tough shots.''

Dudley shrugged and said, "He just had it going today. I mean, he really had it going.''

Bryant didn't just beat the Suns on the court, he beat them in their heads, with Hill and Dudley exhausting so much effort on defense that they combined to go two for 13.

"He kind of controlled the whole game," Suns Coach Alvin Gentry said of Bryant. "Those shots he was making, you can't do anything about.''

Bryant obviously benefitted from a week's worth of rest — he had not really practiced since the Lakers finished their four-game sweep of the Utah Jazz.

"My legs benefited a lot,'' he said. "Take some time off. Just get stronger. like a training camp all over again. ... Now I feel I have two legs to play with.''

But he was also fueled by three years' worth of haunting.

Surely you remember the 2006 and 2007 playoff losses to the Suns? They were the Lakers' first postseason games since the trade of Shaquille O'Neal, the first chance for Bryant to show his stuff as a team leader, and he failed miserably.

The first series ended with Bryant's alleged tanking of Game 7, a charge he vehemently denied again several days ago.

The second series ended with Bryant openly complaining about a lack of help, a public gripe session that devolved into a summer-long sass.

In many ways, good ways, he is a different Bryant now. But in many ways —the ways that win championships — he is not.

He works a grudge like he was working an undersized forward. He strives not only for victory, but vindication. When he took the court Monday, he didn't see just see a team from Phoenix, he felt the tug of one of the most miserable times of his career, and he was prepared to finally tug back.

"He was going to shoulder the game," Coach Phil Jackson said. "He was going to take it on.''

And when he did, even his teammates shook their heads.

"You kind of get used to it,'' Shannon Brown said. "But then sometimes, you're out there like, 'Wow.'''

Bryant answered last week's question from Brad Turner with more than just a question.

After saying, "What do you think?'' he paused, looked at Turner, and said, "You already know.''

We do now."
