Guess he was able to muscle/back-in Charlotte's and Atlanta's centers in the paint and he couldn't do that against Big Baby (a short version of Shaq) and Perkins.

Lakers, shooting 58%, trounce the Suns, 128-107.

I thought the Suns would make a run in the 3rd, but Kobe went nuts in that quarter with 21 points and that was all she wrote. :mrgreen:

Didn't works for James, but sure has for Kobe sitting out all those games at the end, those legs have probably never been this fresh so deep into the playoffs. :mrgreen:

Seriously. Kobe being Kobe...it boggles the mind.

No biggie. Just tryin' to make your point. An assist, if you. :)

Sure is odd that there's such a long break between game two and three for both series... They don't resume until this weekend. :headscratch:

Sigh, netwoks only think about the ratings, :beatyou: because of that the NBA is truly a 4 season sport...if the finals go to a game 7, think it's right around the start of summer. :doh:

Some news reports have Mark Cuban making a play for LeBron... That'll pretty much guarantee James will never win a NBA championship.

Must win for the Magic tonight.

It'll be humiliating irony if they get swept considering they swept the first two series of the playoffs. :sweat:

True with that, they were the hottest team by far, they weren't just winning but crushing their opponents. :sweat: Not looking good tonight either, down by 17 at the half in Boston. :bleh:
