Fish is not gonna be able to play much this series. Rondo is gonna get him in foul trouble early and often. And if he doesnt..hes gonna give him fits

I do have to give some props to Sheed. Looked like he forgot how to play all regular season--has done a nice job at times in the playoffs.

Shannon Brown couldn't get off the bench in Cleveland and now he is making a meaningful contribution to an NBA Champion. Doesn't say much for the talent evaluation skills of the front office.

Huh?

Doesn't say much about a coach that couldn't find minutes for him. However, the guy had time to learn how to be a pro and get better--not to mention, you never know how guys like that may have rededicated themselves behind the scenes. Completely pointless to say anything negative about Cleveland in that sense really.

The high pick Kobe 2 Gasol 2 Bynum is very effective.

Lol Iggy im with you. Ira Newble and Damon Jones, and god knows who else gettin time over Shannon is laughable. I loved him comin outta MSU and was so mad when the Cavs picked him up right before Phoenix could of(they were after him and Shannon Brown in the Phoenix offense would of been beautiful)

Hindsight is 20/20...you guys act like Brown was the same player he is now as a rookie. People have down right RETARDED expectations for rookies since the class of '03.

Big momentum shot by Rondo.

GREAT half for the Lakers, can't hope for much better than a 9 point lead at the half in the Finals.

Only thing that might of changed is his IQ a little bit. Hes still an Athlete/defender with a decent shot and has been since day 1. Not that theres anyway to prove this...But id bet he was better then Newble and got knows who else he sat behind on that pitiful bench

FTs will be key in the second half. Can't let the other team get into the bonus early.

Probably more talented than Newble--probably would have made more mistakes though. Not like Newble played a lot anyways.

But it's not just his IQ--you're nuts if you don't think he's a better player after multiple years in the league...

Shows you how much better he's really gotten behind the scenes--comes with experience. Now that he plays with a star who won't pass the ball, it's that much more impressive. Good call on that one Skyhook.
