It was obvious they were out of gas from the ot loss in Miami the night before. I dunno why Jackson played the starters so long. :headscratch:

Maybe they need some more humbling and reality.
They don't look as tough as last year, not sure Artest makes a whole difference, or is Kobe just getting older. I see the Cav's winning it all, not that i am a Cav's supporter or fan, its just the way i see how they dominant and how the Lakers don't. We'll just have to wait and see come playoff time, and see how the Lakers defend their title, if they can.

They look like they have no motivation or hunger at all... :shakehead:

Artest doesn't seem to be giving them the energy that Ariza did, though Brown and Farmar seem to have stepped up.

On the down side, Gasol and Bynum, though both are 7-footers, are not playing any defense to speak of... :shakehead:

Maybe Kobe should sit on the bench some more to rest and let the rest of the team play like when they went 4-1 without him.

Lakers eke out a win against the Raptors, 109-107, on Kobe's last second shot. :sweat:

i heard about that one of the Laker fan's helped out....

but Kobe's buzzer beater, or near last shots, are truly amazing, this one is no exception.

Celtics managed just 12pts in the first quarter while at home, and fall big to the Charlotte Bobcats, 91-111. That is music to my ears!! :applaud:
A Cav's and/or Magic loss would be even better!

Lakers beat the Suns in Phoenix, 102-96.

Lakers defeat the Warriors in a defensive battle, 124-121. :rolleyes:

Lakers defeat the Kings 106-99.

Celts bean NY, on St. Paddy's Day, 109-97.

Lakers defeat the T-Wolves, 104-96.

Saint Mary's Wins!

Saint Mary's Wins!!

Saint Mary's Wins!!!

Little Saint Mary's from Moraga, Ca. defeats Richmond in the first round 80-71 and then upsets no. 2 seed Villanova 75-68 to advance to the Sweet 16!! :woot:

They also have five Australians on their team, Ben Allen from Melbourne, Jorden Page from Maroochydore, Clint Steindl from Mackay, Mitchell Young from Logan, and Matthew Dellavedova from Maryborough.

I reckon that's why they won, mate! :victory:

^ That was a really good game... St. Mary's pretty much dominated Villanova with their big center Omar Samhan.

And Northern Iowa STUNS Kansas, 69-67.

Wild first weekend of March Madness... :woot:

Lakers try to blow a 20+ point lead against Washington in the fourth quarter, but win, 99-92. :sweat:

Utah comes out strong in the second half and beat the Cs, 110-97
