Mr. Burgundy

just gotta take it one at a time, its not about beating the lakers 3 in a row. Its about winning sunday then tuesday, if we win the next 2. then game is when anything can happen and i like our chances

Does anyone still believe we can pull the biggest upset in NBA finals history? We could just as well be up 3-1 in this series and i know missed FTs was the cause of the loss tonight but i think another thing it comes down to is breaks. Man we cannot catch a break in this series whether it be Clee's miss at the buzzer or ariza making a 26fter as shot clock expires in the 4th to tie it up or derrick fishers 3 to tie it. Just seems like everything is going the lakers way and it sealed it when i saw rashard back tap that missed 3 by hedo and gasol just happened to waiting at half court for the ball, i've never seen that play occur before that a PF for the other team gets the back tap at mid court, usually the PG for the offensive team is there to grab it. Maybe it just comes down to we arent meant to win it. I still cant seem to give up on this team, i know history says its impossible but never know. I love this team though and the lakers do not impress me, they do make timely scores but we match them blow for blow but they are a more experienced/intelligent team still, were a very young team. i dont know about anyone else but im praying for a miracle and lets take one game at a time and crawl back into this thing.

why cant we ever catch a break, my goodness

hate to say it but dont see us winning, we look scared to death out there and are choking big time

they want to win.. we dont, as simple as that. we thought they were gonna fold this half and were slowly folding instead

game overrrr

keep pushin the temp, NO turnovers and make FTs

series over.. absolutely no way we pull this game out, we choked another win away

shooting 64pct and losing?? how is that

anybody else wanna punch kobe in the face after he makes them weird faces after making shots

we dont feed off our crowds energy at all, look really flat as usual

lets go! the series starts now for 48+ minutes.. get the win!!

How many people still realistically think we can pull the biggest upset ever in finals history and come back and win the series?? My heart wants to say yes so bad but honestly i think we have about no chance. Were just over matched and it is easily visible at times. This series started out bad with all the jameer controversy and i see it ending bad. I think we win one, maybe two. I think tonight will mentally deflate us and kobe and the lakers have that killer instinct that we still lack. Im emotionally drained and am tired of gettin my hopes up with this team.. alls i can do is just pray for a miracle that we catch fire and play smart.

come on a missed layup isn't going to ruin his career.. hes a ROOKIE! i cant remember the last rookie that started in the finals.

well i hope you 2 people are right..

haha not even close to a troll but also not dillusional.. just tryin to have an unbiased approach and its not our time to win a championship, if thats being a troll then sorry.

let this thread die

Anyone notice phil jackson smiling constantly everytime they show him. I think he knows he has the easiest road to a nba championship ever. were overmatched and we know it

Great year.. were done fellas. i think tonight deflated the teams hopes

quote: Big Baby's game winner was followed up with the 4th quarter choke job. So no, this wasn't the first back-to-back loss. quote: Big Baby's game winner was followed up with the 4th quarter choke job. So no, this wasn't the first back-to-back loss. yep i stand corrected.. well i pray im wrong but i just dont see it in our guys to win this series. kobe can score at will it seems whether it be the refs giving him points or him making jumpers.

Sorry but hate to say it, i think tonight was the total opposite of "wake up call." i think tonight deflated us totally, its the first time we've lost back to back in the playoffs and we know were overmatched. Yea we missed open shots but guess what they missed a ton of them too. We actually look scared of them on certain occasions. i see us winning 1 but itll end in orlando. kills me to admit but its just not our years.

hate to say it but i think its time to rest jameer. first of all because we are not goin to win this series whether hes in or not and its not worth risking more injury and two because hes not doing a lot anyhow. were so overmatched its kinda sad.

what the hell is wrong with this team
