    I was forced to watch the Lakers broadcast. They actually mentioned that as it happened. It was worth the Lakers slob fest when I got to hear their announcers sound utterly defeated in the end.

    He was awesome! Yes Lakers are a great matchup for us, Davis is more soft than Aldridge in playing the 5 and our centers are so much better than theirs

    Hassan sucks defending rotations or out to threes. His elite skill and what he way over commits to is blocking shots at the rim. LeBron keeps attaching right into him at the rim, its great!

    They were such horrible announcers, my gosh I'm going to have to try and figure how to stream the radio or such. Webber is a joke!

    I had to watch that broadcast too and it was brutal listening to them until the end but SCOREBOARD was what I was yelling. So worth it.

    Webber was absolutely sure the Lakers were just going to flip a switch and be done with that game. He did the same thing last night on the Mavs/Clippers game. Literally said in the second quarter the Clippers were going to start playing pretty quick and this will all be over.

    I noticed during the seeding games that the 620 AM radio feed was actually streaming on iHeartRadio rather than bee preempted by national FoxSportsRadio broadcasts. Don't know if they're doing that during the playoffs too, but it's worth checking.
