I don't get it. Why was there an extra day between Games 1 & 2 - both in LA - yet game 3 (in Boston) is on Tuesday? In other words, why wasn't Game 2 played on Saturday, as to give the players an extra day's rest going cross-country?
Fleecing Kobe and the from-behind block on Fisher were classics. To be honest, so was Doc's timeout to save the 8-second call.
Yeah I heard wrong on that ("don't really remember who had the record" ), Ray was extremely impressive.
Fisher can not go a whole series on Ray Allen. Phil has always insisted on Derek though, our biggest flaw. No clue how we eventually pull this out, I don't think we're as tested as Boston.
when is LA going to address the PG position? they don't have a backup to take over for fisher either after this year
Yeah that is a big failure on the GM's/Phil's part. Fish is given too much leeway because of his "clutch" rep, and other credentials. He's just atrocious really. I also wouldn't have saved Kobe with the 5 fouls like that. My feeling is that a player like him might be able to play through it. Coaches act like only the fourth quarter counts.
do they think shannon brown is going to be a starter next year? yeah, they could've played him but what if he does foul out? of course the outcome is probably the same as it as now so they could have risked it.
And lo, David Stern spoke from the Heavens and proclaimed, thou shalt go seven games. So let it be said, so let it be done.
