I wonder if the team that loses the series will complain that they got screwed because the officials favored the "home" team :crazy: But having said all that, I think we're getting a little bit ahead of ourselves. I look for Phoenix to come out real strong tonight. They should win tonight's game. [/list:u]

as much as I want an all LA series in the 2nd round...
Phx will give it a tough tough dogfight, and probably will take this game, since they are tough, pissed, and playing at home..
game 6 will be a different story....an LA story, cause Kobe wants it bad, and he is hungry for the 2nd Round, so are his teammates.

Hello all.. Watching the Heat game right now, meanwhile New Jersey defeated Indiana 92-86 at home and took a 3-2 series lead with game 6 at Indiana

spurs take game 5, up 3-2, game 6 will be sacramento.

Phx looks tough, up 9 at the half..., as much as i want Lakers to close it out, i think there will be a game 6 in LA. :sweat:

Seems like it :sweat: . The Suns came out strong in this game and is ahead right now 86-73 with 10:06 left in the final quarter.

That's good :thumbsup: . I hope that the Nets close the series in game 6 :fingerscrossed: .

1 good game (Nets-Pacers) and 3 blow outs :shakehead:

Lakers have to hold ground at home or risk choking up the series to PHX, cause you don't want to go back to Phx for game#7

also what R. Bell did on Kobe, that was a crucial mistake, got Kobe and the Lakers all fired up, game #6 in LA... :fingerscrossed: :beatyou:

Miami steps it up and closes it out, one more win and they move on

Spurs show dominance and look to take it in Sacto for game #6.

If R. Bell is suspended, it will put more pressure on Phx defense, since he is the guy who usually guards Kobe. Should be interesting in LA, to see if Lakers can again step it up and hold serve. We shall see what happens, again Phx faces elimination, but i'd say the pressure is more on Lakers to win it at home for Game #6 on Thurs.

Can't wait for Game 6

Lakers and Kobe -"bring it on!!"

hope R.bell won't bne suspened mostly not since both Phil and kobe wants him there in Game6!

personally, i don't think he will get suspended, punches were not thrown, but it was a flagarant foul, and not a good move on R. Bell's part, only to get Kobe and the Lakers even more filred up for game #6.

what concerns me is that phx easlily wins at home, while Lakers barely win it at home....let's home Lakers can shut down Nash and Phx Suns defensively and clamp down to win it... :beaten: :fingerscrossed:

The Detroit Pistons advanced to the second round by beating the Milwaukee Bucks 122-93 and winning the series 4-1 =T .

as expected.... :say_yes:

Lebron hits the game winning layup in OT, they win 121-120.

Nets and Heat advance, Lakers leading after first quarter

Lakers trail 60-57 at the half, if they keep letting Phoenix play at their pace, could be a game 7 :sweat:

Lakers lose in o.t. 126-118 :beaten: Leading by 3 with 6 seconds to go in regulation, they give up a wide open 3 :shakehead: unbelievable

Suns and Clips, that is my prediction...in round 2

Lakers don't deserve it, only cause they should have stuck to their power game and not turned the ball over so times. They chose to get in a running game and not slow it down, and it went to the Phx advantage...

i am very disappointed in the Lakers... :shakehead:

the hell with the LA story.

i always thought, if it went back to game 7 in Phx, the Lakers will lose it, they did not take care of business and show dominance...they missed out.

another blowout in game 7....phx over Lakers.

i would really like to see a miracle, and see an LA story, but it ain't going to happen anymore...

i pick another Spurs-Detroit Final, and Pistons will prevail Champions...

kobe was concerned with their in-experience/youth, and he was right, Lakers CHOKED....

it's all Suns from here....don't get me wrong, i wanted Lakers to win it, but they failed to closeout, now they are going to be going home after Saturday, on vacation..

others that are going on vacation, Chicago, and Pacers...

Prove me wrong Lakers, and pull out a miracle win in phx....
i don't have confidence in them...
