I would normally agree zombie, but I don't see it happening in this case.
Lakers by 4 and back to the Finals.

If Bennett Salvatore refs the game Phoenix will be the favorites.

Won't be surprised if Phoenix wins. Hopefully tonights dodged bullet wakes them up to the threat they're facing and they handle the damn business in phoenix.
I would love to send those lowlifes home crying.

Lakers still shot like shit from 3, BUT Kobe was 4-10 from 3. Rest of the team was 3-14. That's not good but they did a much better job of attacking the zone tonight and as long as they do that they should beat the Suns.
Anyone else feel like Powell or Mbenga need to get some minutes? I know they aren't very good but either one of them has to be better than Bynum right now. He's hurting them badly IMO, he's not healthy enough to be productive. And when he plays 19 minutes, it's just a wasted 19 minutes. Or just go a little smaller and let one of the little guys take his minutes. He's not helping the cause for the Lakers. Not a slam on him, he just isn't healthy enough to be playing.

I just dont see the Suns losing this game at home. I think they will win by 5 and we will have an awesome game 7 in LA.

Just knowing that Boston is waiting, I can't see Kobe allowing this team to lose Saturday night. Regardless of what he says, that motherfucker wants to beat Boston into a pulp..

A Lakers/Cavs Finals would draw more than any other match up. And we all see how that has turned out the last 2 years.

Phoenix has been taking some TERRIBLE rushed shots allowing LA to get in transition and good looks. Sometimes they leave Nash on the bench way to long and LA is cashing in.

Seriously the Suns have no chance to win this game.... To give 65 points in the 1st half of a potential season ending game is terrible. But the words Phoenix Suns & Defense don't really go together to begin with anyway. Phoenix just has to hope they get hot in the 2nd half and for the Lakers who are not normally a three point shooting team (have 8 or 9 in the 1st half) to cool down. Amare and Nash are no shows basically. Artest, I have no clue what got into him tonight lol

That is hilarious. Sasha barely touches dragic and gets a flagrant 1 on one of the worst flops I have ever seen

Granted it was a awesome acting job, Sasha deserves that Flagrant for a stupid move .... That has changed the whole momentum in the 4th now

No one can ever argue against Kobe being the best closer in the NBA. Just insane the shots he has made down the stretch.

Dragic definitely flopped but Vujacic did throw a 'bow. Stupid move by Vujacic. Who cares what Dragic is saying, you're team is killing his. Just tell him "Scoreboard"wildcats20 wrote: That is hilarious. Sasha barely touches dragic and gets a flagrant 1 on one of the worst flops I have ever seen

I freakin hate Kobe, but I respect him. At no point during the final two minutes did I think he was going to miss a shot/let the Lakers lose.
I didn't get involved in the Kobe-Lebron shenanigans all season, but now I have to say Kobe is worlds better than Lebron at this point. If I am playing a meaningless game in December give me Lebron everyday of the week and he'll dance and take pictures and dominate all at the same time. However in the post season Lebron shrinks.
