When Will It End!

Where are the LA Lakers?

This is the most confusing team remaining in the playoffs by far. How can you blowout a team by 40, and receive the same treatment two days later. The Lakers are starting to not only embarrass themselves, but the Western Conference. Not one team during the regular season man-handled LA like Houston has the last two games at home.

Since when did Luis Scola became Shaq? How is it that he can score 26 points and grab 12 rebounds without anyone contesting any of his shots. Gasol in particular. Aren't you a 6'10 all-star with lengthy arms. One block would've been nice, or contesting some of his shots.

"There's nothing to worry about," coach Phil Jackson, stated on espn.com,http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/dailydime"We are just going to go out and play. It's our home court and it's what we play for. We play a different game on our court, and that's pretty obvious to see."

Are You Serious?!

This loss ought to be on you Phil without a doubt. From game 3 on, he's played a starting lineup at times that doesn't have the same chemistry as before. Jordan Farmar should've been implemented since his great play in game 3, and so on. Phil ultimately believes that experience will have a better impact, however that hasn't worked thus far. LA is still starting Andrew Bynum who doesn't even no where is he at times on the floor. LA's biggest flaw in last year's Finals lost was not having Bynum and his inside presence, but with him back there actually looking worse.

Last year, the Celtics endured back-to-back 7 game series wins in which everyone started to criticize them after a tremendous season. Now the Lakers are receiving the same treatment when people should jus acknowledge tough this Houston team is. These doubts are a merely just jealous fans of the Lakers.

LA will definitely win game 7, for easy reasons. It's in LA where Kobe isn't going to let the fans down as well as his team and he will have a monster game because he isn't going to be content without another NBA title. I'm glad LA had this test because they've learned about themselves more than any other team remaining in the playoffs. They had to be driven so they know winning a NBA title isn't hard.
