NBA Playoffs 2011

Lakers were very pathetic tonight. Bench sucked, 3 pt. shooting sucked, Gasol was non existent, just very embarrassing. Dallas played great tonight, but that doesn't excuse the Lakers for that crappy performance. I haven't felt this down after a Laker loss since 04 when they loss to Detroit in the Finals. I still have faith in them, but they have dug themselves into a deep hole. Very frustrated right now.

LOL @ both Boston and L.A struggling, after the past years how they had that rivalry, all but gone, time for change. Just don't see both teams coming up from being down 2-0, especially LA who lost their home court advantage.

[Q.q. Shakur]

I'm really pissed off what the fuck Lakers, playing like total shit, there is no trust going on with my team. They fucking better smarten up and bounce back.

[H.O.V.A.]

It's very unlikely for a team to bounce back after an 0-2 deficit. Not impossible, but very unlikely.

L.A.'s performance was embarrassing, as noted. The crowd was booing Gasol.

Boston, u suck!

Looks like a dallas vs miami final, and i bet miami will win it all eventhough i prefer dallas. Miami has it too easy, they should struggle a few years before they start winning multiple championships which they probably will.

Haha, if L.A. keeps playing the way they did last night, I don't think Mavs'll have anything to worry about.

Slightly ontopic, Artest has also been suspended.

I really want to see Boston in the East Finals too, but let's be honest... even if they make it that far, The Bulls will probably beat them because of how young most of the players still are.

Boston should be able to tie it up, especially with homecourt advantage. Plus, they played horribly against Miami last game and they still managed to be down by 2 or 3 in every quarter except the last.

the mavericks must win tonite..artest is suspended so thats one less thing we have to worry about..
also i change my original prediction..mavs win in 6 games..shame on me for not havin faith in my mavericks.

End of Lakers dynasty, end of Kobe's ring quest. Next year will be a lockout, Kobe will go to Italy most likely and play. Unless the Lakers get D12, they ain't winning anything anymore.

Much as it pains me to admit it, Dallas has been the better team this series. They make the plays when it counts and Dirk has been absolutely dominant. Plus their bench and 3 pt. shooting have completely outmatched the Lakers. Lakers fought hard, but they just ran out of gas at the finish line. This also may be the beginning of the end of their run. I knew it would end one day, but not like this. This just sucks.

Have faith.

i am ashamed that i had such doubt in the mavericks..but the good news is that they are up 3-0..dirk's been beastin lately..unlike playoffs in the past where he struggled..this might be the year

[H.O.V.A.]

Yeah, you gotta give The Mavs props, they've found a way to take down the 2-time defending champs. Though I'm hoping OKC comes in and wins the western finals, it looks impossible to block Dirk Plus the Thunder aren't exactly known for their impeccable defense. lol

While I'm glad that Kobe is still confident that his team can pull an upset, history seems to not be in their favor (teams that are down 0-3 and come back to win the playoffs haven't been done [98-0]). In order for The Lakers to get back into the game, Gasol really needs to step it up. He's been nonexistant during this entire playoff game.

OKC/Memphis and Boston/Miami tonight! I'm predicting Miami's gonna disappoint Boston in the same fashion that Dallas is disappointing L.A.

[immortal-outlaw]

If LA can come up and win this series, MAD RESPECT. But highly doubt that will happen, and if it does, Kobe is in the record books again.
