I *really* hate the Lakers. *gag*
Great game, great series… Kings lost it in the end for themselves, Lakers just hung on. They still have to get through the Nets (I am sure they will.)
Go Nets.
I watched Wesley Crusher day on TNN, but all the old women calling in to say how hot Wesley is was kind of freaking me out!
The Lakers won? 🙁 Go Nets!
And since I am from Raleigh, I must add GO CANES!
Weren’t we all watching the Wil Wheaton marathon on THE NEW TNN (“Robin” and “Wesley” locking lips at the end of “The Game”). Now if we can just get those people to get rid of that annoying TNN bottom line eating into the screen.
Go Lakers!!!
Sacramento is a good team, and it was a great series. But, from a purely aesthetic point of view, they’ve got the UGLIEST players in the NBA.
Damn. Some of those guys look like mutant freaks.
And what’s with the owners? They remind me of aliens from a Next Gen episode … you know, the dumb ones that kidnapped Geordi so that he could make their ship go faster? “We look for things. Things that make us go.”
Yeah, because the Lakers owner doesn’t look like the worst TOUPEE model EVER.
Lakers didn’t deserve to win, on so many levels (anyone watch game 6, what b.s.), but I will admit Kobe is good, Shaq is just fat. I think 10% of Lakers fans are real fans and the rest just like to pretend to like the team that’s won the series the past few years. Most people at their games don’t even watch, they’re too busy on their cell phones.
We all know who really won that series. Kings played like crap and still almost beat the Lakers, doesn’t say much about Phil Jackson’s (the man who has made an art out of riding ont he coattails of players) buttmonkeys.
Gee, how coincidental that NBC gets a bunch of 7 game series at the end?! How convenient.
Yeah, Webber, Bibby & Vlade are really that good (NOT). And talk about cow-classless. Constatly cheering their own offense, and complaining about negative calls.
For all the obvious cow-bias calls (throughout the series), the Lakers conducted themselves with dignity & decorum.
Newsflash people, the fix is in.
It started w/ Game 1 last year vs. Philly.
What a joke that all turned out to be.
Last years Coach of the Year, MVP, & All-Star MVP…sure proved true this season, huh.
The NBA hates sweeps. It deligitimizes their kooky expansion scheme(s), and tortures fans who buy season tickets for perpetually losing/choking teams. So instead we get outlandishly obvious officiating (bias).
Plus all the ‘red states’ love to hate L.A.
Regardless which team you love, all fans are disgusted with the dubious officiating.
Hmmm, what new rule will they come up with next year to stop Shaq?
And even when the refs give the cow-Kings all those ‘Free’ throws… the chokers still couldn’t get it done. Good thing Superman knows how to make a foul shot.
The NBA Western Conference finals earned NBC a 13.5 overnight rating and 24 share, according to Nielsen Media Research, an 82 percent gain over the comparable game last year when Philadelphia played Milwaukee in the Eastern finals.
It was NBC’s best postseason overnight rating, excluding the NBA Finals, since Game 7 of the 2000 Western Conference finals between the Lakers and Portland.
The Nets’ 96-88 series-clinching (friday) victory in the East finals against the Boston Celtics drew an 8.7 rating and 16 share in the overnights.
Go Lakers!
And let them eat your dust!!!
Wow… I’m not a sports fan, but the guy-friends made me watch it and I was hooked. Hey, Sacramento gave the Lakers a run for their money. LA had to fight to get the Division… but boy was it entertaining! Congrats LA… you won fair and square. We’ll get ya next time 😉
the wesley crusher marathon absolutely rocked! but yeah all those people calling in with how much they wanted wes was a little weird… “break me off a piece of that!” …
THREE-PEAT, THREE-PEAT, THREE-PEAT!!!!
I don’t get it.
😉
How can guys who get paid a whole lot of money to play basketball for a living shoot so crappy from the free throw line. Its a FREE THROW for F&#k’s sake! I’m from Sacramento, I’m a season ticketholder, and at least I have the comfort of knowing that the Lakers didn’t win that series. The Kings lost it. And yes there is a big difference.
I do hope this is the start of a great rivalry!
Fair & square? Officiated was biased against the Lakers? I’m confused. I either read those posts wrong or I must have been watching a different series. Me & hundreds, maybe thousands of other people. Sure, no team can blame a loss soley on officiating. But it does matter. The bias is on behalf of the Fakers. And not just in this series. The “It” team always gets calls on their behalf. Its sucks, but thats the way it is (remember all the travelling Jordan did w/ the Bulls?) Oh, and decorum? Not when a marquee player says stuff like the only way to beat the Lakers is to cheat! Its b/c of stuff like that that I can’t stand the Lakers. I haven’t always felt this way. I used to respect them tremedously b/c of their history. I remember just a few years ago (before Kobe) how they sucked. I hoped good things for them b/c I thought it was sad a team w/ such history had nothing going for them. And I also thought its better for the NBA & fans to not have teams that suck so much. So now I get the cliche “becareful what you wish for.” I can deal w/ the officiating “helping” the Lakers in some ways since its the normal practice to “help” the “It” team. But not when certain high profile people involved w/ the organization have such horrible attitudes. I feel bad for the long time, true Lakers fans. You can’t just turn off your enthusiasm for a team you’ve loved for a long time, even during the bad years. But to have to cheer for a bunch of guys who are so incredibly smug when they win & cry like little boys when they lose, well, there have been such people who’ve played for the teams I love. Despite how good they were, I couldn’t wait for them to be traded. This years NBA finals, I don’t know who to root for. I can’t stand the current Lakers team. And I’m not sure I want to cheer for a guy who hit his wife. Yeah, he’s “not the same guy anymore.” And he & his wife have worked out things. I hope he has really turned his personal life around. Its possible & its a good thing. But b/c of things I’ve seen in my own life, I have a hard time dealing w/ some one who hits his or her spouse. I don’t know. Thank goodness there is still hockey. Way more interesting than basketball anyway. I’ve alway respected Detroit & then on the other side there is Brind’Amour who’ve I’ve like for a long time. (And thank goodness there is the World Cup, too, go USA.)

Can I just say it was great seeing ‘Wesley Crushers’ butt again!!! It looked so cute in those tight uniforms 🙂 I can’t help it. Watching TNN brought back alot of silly High School memories (i.e. arguing w/ my girlfriends about who was going to nail Wesley first…talk about goofy).
HAve a good one !!!
Ya know, if Sacramento had won, I’d be on the lookout for the four horsemen as that too would be a sign of the impending apocalypse. -And I’m from Sacramento even… The Kings always blow it.
Yeah, it sux that the lakers won, but come on.
Granted, Shaq is probably the worst basketball player in the NBA, and the only reason he succeeds is that he’s like the 500-pound gorilla in a hotel, still, the lakers didn’t cheat, they didn’t steal, they just used their assets very well. And even a rabid laker-hater like me can’t deny that Kobe Bryant has some fricking great basketball skills.
(Damn you Trader Bob! Damn You!

Yeah, go home and save yourselves the embarassment you are facing.
I sure this meant a lot to some people ;0)
Me – I didn’t have a clue before I read the comments.
Gotta wonder, do I have a clue now?
so i’m easily swayed by even slightly intelligent humour… and spud often provides that here…
… which brings me to hops. as soon as i posted that one, i thought “hmm i wonder if anyone will be “dirty”-minded enough to read that in another way…”. however, i *am* of that mind myself if i thought of it, aren’t i?

(and it was just a slightly clever cowbell quotation after all.)
that was such a good game even though i didn’t watch it i was at a school dance but thay kepp updating it every ten min.
Hi, Bill!
So, do I think the US team has a chance to take the World Cup? Well, since we are talking men’s soccer I have to say, no, not a chance. But I do expect them to improve. There are some great guys on the team like Mathis. American men’s soccer has a long way to go to meet the success the women’s team has found. But I’m fairly happy at the improvement I’ve seen in them. Not everyone can play at the level of the men from the South American nations. I don’t think I’m coming from way out there when I say I think Brazil will win the World Cup.
Sorry to interupt the basketball stuff.
Spud what was the deal with that evil pic? Nobody can deny that Bibby is an awesome player. I’m a huge Kings fan so all i can do is look forward to next year.
Isabel..its okay to admit it..
There are many of us who come here hourly to
see what great wisdom Spuds hath dispensed with.
Its so nice of Wil to let us be here..
Lakers or no Lakers.

2 words…………..
OH YEAH!!!!
No words needed ey Wil?
The picture n comments say it all!
OK, I work at a TV station and last night the screams coming from the sports guys were REALLY loud. I’m trying to mark my scripts and get ready for the show, and everyone else is gathered around the TV screaming at the game! ACK!
Oh well!
I can’t bring myself to like the lakers since shaq is such a massive dildo. I can respect kobe as a good player…. but shaq is just a gorrila in a basketball uniform that’s been strategically shaved.
His whole game relies on the fact that the refs call fouls differently when it comes to him than anyone else in the league. He is free to push people untill he is directly under the basket, then someone just throws him the ball and he shoots…. if he doesn’t make the shot the ref simply blows the whistle. I have never seen such horrible officiating in my life.
To help solidify my position, try catching one of ESPN’s “classic” NBA playoff games sometime. I caught one from 1975 the other day… The refs call a foul and 90% of the time nobody argues. These days a player and coach argue every single call regardless of how blatantly obvious it is. It lends little to their credibility. Case it point… Kobe picked up his 5th foul late in the game on an obvious call where he practically ran over Bibby on the inbounds play. Immediately he lifts up his hands as if to say “What?! What did I do? I can’t belive this!” I blame the NBA for hiring bad refs and for encouraging a play environment where their players are taught to argue any call even if it’s the right one.
I gotta go…. gotta go get me a Shaq Pack and a Nestle Cruch bar…. maybe I’ll pick up some Shaq endorsed Tampax tampons while I’m out.
Hey they sell Shaq tampons?
Ultra long and absorbant for extra flow.
Flopper never win.
Curious all these cow-Kings fans (a team competing for ‘most white guys’ status) call Superman a Gorilla. That couldn’t possibly be some Freudian truth slipping out now could it. But, far be it from me to call a compassionate conservative a RACIST.
If you cow-fans, and Laker haters, (aka Bush Leaguers) wanna think of Shaq as monkey like, that’s your righteous business – perhaps you should start calling him KONG! Muthafuckas!
Great Job Lakers, You really Shut em down on the Free throw line (& 3 pointers)
Not to mention the FACT that any team in the NBA that had Shaq would be favored to win it all.
I can see why someone who lives in LA is a Lakers fan (& Shaq seems like a very nice guy) but everybody else is about as pathetic as a Dallas Cowboy Fan.
To have to go to game 7 and overtime shows how great a coach and team the Lakers really have.
Considering the Lakers face a 5-on-8 matchup every night, they’ve done outstanding (and have managed to stay healthy).
The biggest clue of the ‘fix’ is how apparently nobidy fouls Kobe, during all his drives to the rim?!
That’s really amazingly clean play I guess (quite uncommonly so). Recently Shaq was only sent the line once — yeah right, nobody fouled Shaq the whole game. I call the foul totals “evidence” of rigged whistles.
Why does the League hate Shaq? Cuz he strolls into town with his six guns (Kobe, Horry, Fisher, Fox, Shaw & MadDog), and wipes the floor with every weak-ass expansiony team. Superman leaves thousands of disheartened fans in market after market (uh hum, I mean city after city). Thus reducing the chances that little Johnny will want an $80 jersey of the hometown choker that just got slapped (like Chris Webber for example).
Perhaps the league will invoke the ol’ Kareem “no dunk” rule to stop Shaq-Daddy!
Nuff said.
1.)What the hell is a spudnuts?
2.)Never mind. I don’t care.
Didn’t watch the game…:(
But I did watch Wesley Crusher day on TNN with my daughters…..
Now I’m watching Willie Wonka…..
I need to get a life…..
DAMN! I LOVE THE L.A. LAKERS!!!!!!! GO KOBE!! GO RICK! NICE TOUCH WITH THE PIC, WIL! :*) (E-MAIL ME WHENEVER YOU WANT!!)
hey baby hey baby hey all the boys say hey baby hey baby I LOVE THIS GAME!!!
It’s amazing the flaming that comes out over a basketball game.
This is more heated than the “I hope those motherfuckers at Enron die” comments.
Thats a bit twisted don’t ya think?
woo! go Jersey! go Jersey!!! ;)~
Hey Nightfly,
Get stuffed. I don’t care if Shaq is black, white, yellow, red, or plaid. He’s still a gorilla. As long as we are on the topic of racism though, I like your comment about the Kings being an all white team. I guess Chris Webber just has a really bitchin tan huh? And what about Bibby? Yup, you guessed it, he’s black too. Not to mention the diverse variety of ethnic backgrounds the rest of the players on the team have. *cough* reverse racism *cough* . Maybe the NBA should impose a special rule to make you happy, the “too many light skinned guys on the court” foul. It’s people like you that fuck up the world.
The point is I don’t give a rats ass about a persons skin color, it doesn’t mean a damn thing. It’s what’s upstairs that counts, a place where you (nightfly) are obviously lacking.
Flame off.
Yes I’m *clearly* lacking in intellect. Funny how you’re the one calling a black [Muslim] a Gorilla, but of course, I’m the racist.
I guess there would be no logical motivation to get more whites & lights on the court. Nah, it’s not like they’re the ones with money to spend on overpriced tickets & merchandise. It’s not like many white people can afford the super-expensive season tickets (much less the box suites). And I guess towns with very small Black populations like Sac wouldn’t seek to more aptly serve their (regional) demographic.
But your the smart one Mr. Twat. Naturally I defer to your keen expertise.
Oh I forgot. There’s also the fact that Blacks make up the majority of team ownership, as well ad buyers.
You’re so right Mr.T. Surely I’m the fool to be pitied.
And of course, we all know the Lakers suck, A.I. is the best, and Duncan truly is the MVP of the (Black run) league!
You’ve convinced me 🙂 Thnx
But, what would the all-knowing Tom Tolbert have to say?
the Lakers are going to CRUSH the Nets. Shaq is the MVP. A.I. is a punk.
What’s a “reverse racist”? Is that like being a “reverse sexist”? Are those code words for actually being anti (historical policies & actions of the) White Man? Cuz then I guess I’m that.
I’m anti-Enron too. And anti-fraudulent vote purging too.
I *really* hate the Lakers. *gag*

Sacramento is a good team, and it was a great series. But, from a purely aesthetic point of view, they’ve got the UGLIEST players in the NBA.

The point is I don’t give a rats ass about a persons skin color, it doesn’t mean a damn thing. It’s what’s upstairs that counts, a place where you (nightfly) are obviously lacking.
Flame off.
Yes I’m *clearly* lacking in intellect. Funny how you’re the one calling a black [Muslim] a Gorilla, but of course, I’m the racist.
I guess there would be no logical motivation to get more whites & lights on the court. Nah, it’s not like they’re the ones with money to spend on overpriced tickets & merchandise. It’s not like many white people can afford the super-expensive season tickets (much less the box suites). And I guess towns with very small Black populations like Sac wouldn’t seek to more aptly serve their (regional) demographic.
But your the smart one Mr. Twat. Naturally I defer to your keen expertise.
Oh I forgot. There’s also the fact that Blacks make up the majority of team ownership, as well ad buyers.
You’re so right Mr.T. Surely I’m the fool to be pitied.
And of course, we all know the Lakers suck, A.I. is the best, and Duncan truly is the MVP of the (Black run) league!
You’ve convinced me 🙂 Thnx
But, what would the all-knowing Tom Tolbert have to say?
the Lakers are going to CRUSH the Nets. Shaq is the MVP. A.I. is a punk.
What’s a “reverse racist”? Is that like being a “reverse sexist”? Are those code words for actually being anti (historical policies & actions of the) White Man? Cuz then I guess I’m that.
I’m anti-Enron too. And anti-fraudulent vote purging too.
