    Be consistent with your criticisms. Fisher is trash, stop.

    I don't judge anyone by just one quarter, neither should anyone else.

    I've actually seen a few people say exactly that. I've seen even more say they love the Blazers, but hate the NBA. It's not as uncommon as you might think.

    I know. I have seen many people on this site say "I love the Blazers but I hate the NBA," and I find it ridiculous. But I'm the type to ignore it and just read the next post and hope there is intelligence in it.

    Yes, because dog fighting, smoking weed, strip clubs, and screaming at refs in the parking lot after a loss screams "moral fiber".

    Are you talking about "current events"? What currently are you implying is wrong with the Lakers "moral fiber"?

    The Lakers have the best player, but the Celtics seem to be the better team.

    And I must admit its fun to watch Kobe start to throw up the most ludicrous of shots when things get desperate, apparently sure anything he tries will go in.

    Regular season vs the Warriors??? LOL! I'm talking about winning a championship against the Celtics. Kobe has choked in the 4th quarter throughout this series. No rings are being given out for regular season performances against the Warriors. Kobe can't close when it matters this year. Pau, Artest, and Fish have all had to bail him out of his fourth quarter choke jobs. Learn the game, then post.

    Kobe was fine. Pierce was way more efficient tonight.

    The league does. One good quarter can win you a championship.

    Do you not know how to multi-quote or do you choose not to?

    Yknow sometimes people forget that the Celtics have THREE players that have been the number one option on playoff teams. Ray was The Man in Seattle and KG was MVP in Minnesota. Pierce took the Cs to the ECF in 2002.

    The Lakers don't have that kind of talent. The Cs are the better team and they should win this series.

    The entire game matters, you need to grow up.

    No, one good quarter can't win you a championship. If KG scored 30pts in the 4th quarter of game 7 this series and the Celtics win, that "one good quarter" wouldn't win a Championship. The three wins before that matter just as much, taking game 2 in LA would matter just as much.

    Talking basketball with you is like watching the TV show Bones, it makes me want to kill myself.
