That game was just a sign that the Lakers can be beat. I'm not saying the Wolves are going to win the series, but the Lakers should step it up a it if they want to win.

LAKERS IN 6
i wouldnt say theyre STACKED against the lakers. i cant seem to find an expert who hasnt picked them to win it all again. even know its hard to favor the wolves to win 2 out of 4 games against them. and after game three its very clear that the refs desperatley want the lakers to win. I dont think games can be won and lost soley because of officiating but a lot of people seem to think that was somewhat of a disgrace
Good luck! I have to say that I have been a twolves fan for the great majority of my life. When the game was scheduled for that late at night i almost missed it. Instead of sleeping in order to be ready for school i stayed up and watched the game. I AM SOOOO GLAD I DID THAT! The Twolves proved that they are not just a one man team. We can beat the Lakers. Good Luck Lafers....you obviously need it. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

LAKERS IN 6
