doesn't look good so far for you guys so far...

 

The refs are screwing us ahah

 

yeah that must be it Out to get the biggest market in the league!

 

Go fuck yourself.

 

With a minute left, 8 free throws to 35. Go figure.

Refs definitely took over. We probably had a chance if the game was officiated evenly.

 

nothing to do with kobe shooting 14-36, right? Yeah why don't you remind me what happened in the 2000 western conference playoffs game 7?

 

The year 2000 has nothing to do with 2009.

Kobe has been shooting the ball terrible the last couple of games. He needs to rest to let his fingers heel. Still doesn't explain the amount of free throw disparity and how the refs hosed us the entire game.

 

stat of the night:

kobe 32 points on 37 shots
roy 32 points on 11 shots

the portland curse lives on for yall

 

stat of the night:

Blazers shoot 29 more free throws than Lakers.

congrats on the win though, we played pretty terrible basketball in all. Just think the officiating could've been a bit fairer.

Lakers need to work on ball movement and try running something that resembles an offense. Maybe then we can beat you guys.

 

and 2009 has nothing to do with 2010. heal* Man, it must suck when the refs don't call everything your way for once, huh?

 

Not really, it's just a regular season game. I didn't think we were gonna win anyways, since we never seem to beat you guys in Portland.

I thought the officiating could've been better. 29 more free throws speak for itself.

Oh well, on to the next one.

 

Hey, did anyone see when that Failblazer ran in and stepped on Drew's shoe? And they called Drew for the "trip"? Oh my God, ahah.

What a joke game.

 

fair enough, fair enough. I'll stfu and leave you guys alone.

 

yeah maybe.

officiating beefs run a little hollow from a laker fan though, the discrepancy was because we were more aggressive. kobe's just a jump shooter now.

 

You can laugh all you want.

Bottom line is, there are issues with this team that needs to be addressed.

First and foremost, Kobe needs to get some rest to heal up his finger. His shooting has been terrible recently.

Ron Ron needs to reacclimate himself with the team.

The offense needs more ball movement.

Drew needs to step up, box out, and get motivated again.

And lastly, point guards kill us every game and will continue to do so until Fish's minutes decrease.

I like our team but we have some holes that need to be addressed before I'm 100% comfortable with us heading into postseason.

 

It's cool. I don't mind trash talking. haha

I like your team btw, they play hard every night from what I've seen. Lakers are fucking lazy.

 

what is the deal with bynum? he was going off earlier this year like crazy and recently has been putting up stinkers like this.
