we got lucky on this one guys. man im glad it worked out. to tell you the truth i was really scared if we lose this game phoenix would come back into the series but KOBE pulled it out for us twice today. Credit to all the laker players and Kobe for sealing the deal. 1 MORE GAME!!! WOOoOooOOoOOOOO

The most obvious foul to me was the foul by Diaw on Kobe at the end of regulation that the refs let slide because they didn't want to end the game on a free throw. They may have even thought the same thing on the Nash play.
Can we please stop this foul crap. They have zebras in the game. That was coache's mistake. Phil told his players not to foul and trap and tie him up. This is the playoffs not the season, they wont call a hand check. Thats that. If you think you can do better, Stern is accepting applications as we speak.
That was a simply amazing game. Kobe with the great clutch play, and Parker made a huge play by taking the ball off of Nash.

You can't say Nash deserved the call more because it was clear. In the end, it balances out. I hate to spoil the party but now that I've kind of come back down to normality, we should save the celebrations until we win the series(if we do). Its not over yet, we've still got to win once and you know they are going to come at us ten times harder than before.
Nash just said in the postgame coference that he WAS NOT calling timeout... he was just trying to kick the ball out and then he heard Boris call it but by then it was jump ball. He admitted to making a crucial mistake.

Phoenix is a dangerous team still and I am still waiting for them to break out and hit us for 120 points. Hopefully the Lakers can close out the series in Phoenix next game... because every extra life we give Phoenix is another chance for them to get hot and light us up. They have nothing to lose now...
Nash isn't the type to publicly critize the refs imo. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> A foul is a foul, whether its clear or unclear.

The kobe one u can kind of see why it wasn't called since it was less obvious
.4 was way better. But this one is up there... Truly unbelieveable 2 clutch shots in 1 game. heck no suns will come back and win in 7.

who cares about the foul, game's over. Post game conference, Nash admitted he wasn't fouled at all, it was physical but he wasn't fouled.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Brian:</div><div class="quote_post">thanks. its not espn2 though, right?</div> Espn, Espn2 Who Cares? Game 5 is crucial. Big game for the Lakers! But I have a feeling the Sun will set early on tuesday.
Unbelievable. I was in Santee Aleey (spelling) all day with my girl, so I had to TIVO the game. My friend called me and told me it was amazing, and I hung up so she didn't ruin anything. WOW! Kobe! Smush! Unbelievable. Easily the best game of the play-offs, the best game for Kobe clutch wise all year. It was just sick.. Workin on the final game 5 thread right now!
