I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I liked the effort late in the game. The Warrior team in the past would have "thrown in the towel" so to speak after letting a team back in late.

Very late addition: This commentary from Steve Kerr has me really excited for next season, among the late run: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=sk-warriors041105&prov=yhoo&type=lgns. If only the trade deadline came much earlier in the season.

yeah the lakers are working on another loosing streak and doing a spot on job if you ask me. blowing a 6 point lead in the 4th to lose by 11 is a damn good way to notch on loss number 2.... :bleh:

-g out

Didn't I say something to that effect several pages back? :headscratch:

Not sure. I'd have to look back there..

clips win one, but will lose maggette for the remaining 5 games. Phoenix wins again. Lakers might close this season on a losing streak. :bleh:
nba playoffs just around the corner, s/b exciting. :bonk:

Dallas beats Sonics in seattle, 95-90. :bonk:

Hey, Lakers lose again, 115-106, to the Kings. That's 16 losses in the last 18 games... The worst in Laker history...

Oh boy. :puppydog:

yeah, that is pathetic, also the clips drop yet another game, another one of the pathetic LA team's this year. Hopefully next year will be better for either one of them, :fingerscrossed: I am hoping the clippers will improve somewhat.

on a good note the Warriors whip the portland trailblazers 108-88, i think that was the score. :bonk:

I watched the Cavs losing a pretty close over the weekend...possible for them to make the playoffs???

Yes, but they would need to have a better record than the Nets and the Sixers. But they are not mathematically out of it yet.

Yeah, they're not, but they don't have control of their destiny... They'll need some team(s) to lose to get in...


Lakers-Warriors tonight. And it's on the tube. Let's see the W's stick it to the Lakes... :hehe:

What's the attendence for the Lakers been this season? Since so many Hollywood-type folk attend Laker games, ie, fair weather fans, I wondered if attendence plunged.

I'm pretty sure it's dipped... And there's been quite a bit of booing.

yeah, routing for the Warriors here....
also wonder if the clips will have a better record than the lakers, it's quite close.

also, think the cav's are not going to make the playoffs, the nets seem like they have the momentum. :lol: :nyah:

I hope so :fingerscrossed: That's make things really uneasy in Laker-land. Like the cherry on top.

They will.

Hey, it turns out that the Clips had a better record than the Lakes twice, both times in the early 90's... Saw it in the L.A. Times sports section bver the weekend... :)

also, think the cav's are not going to make the playoffs, the nets seem like they have the momentum. :lol: :nyah:

Yep, the Cavs are flaming out despite LeBron's heroics... :(

Lekers are getting schooled in a big way by the W's, 98-77. And it's only the end of the third quarter... :hehe: :hehe:
