Talha, those Madison Ave. puppet ads with lebron and kobe look so whack now that lebran has gone fishing.

Nike actually released the seventh installment of those ads. I am gonna miss these ads. I see a lot of people here are just casual NBA fans who follows what ESPN and so-called analyst have to say about the game in general. That's why no one here picked up on the Nike ad.

Btw, Lakers have made to the Finals 30 seasons out of 63 (counting BBA days), not 67. Just thought I should correct you there.

Here's the latest installment released on Thursday (6/4)

Good on Lakers tonight, good game.

p.s. Dwayne wade is hot.

Magics had such a bad luck in the second game. Crutial three-pointers from Terkulu went in and out, Terkulu was not given a clear foul when he was tackled by Ariza, just 0.6 sec b4 Lee's ball couldnt slide into the rim.
They really played very good in the whole game esp the block on Cobe in last second shut him off.
Atleast they showed Lakers thats 25 points victory in first aint ensure nothing.

A small stat for you to regurgitate on

Quote:

Only 14 NBA teams in 222 tries have ever come back from a 2-0 deficit to win a best-of-seven series. That's only a 6.3% success rate.

SID_NY · Jun 10th, 2009, 02:57 PM

62.5% shooting, NBA finals record, game 3, by Orlando Magic.... how about this?!!!

I've won my first bet for the finals when someone had claimed that Lakers will sweep the series 4-0, now fingers crossed for the next two matches in particular...

He wasn't tackled..he was harassed. and Hedo lost control of the ball due to inbalance.

must be an idiot person who said Lakers will sweep Magic. Good you won the bet against a person who has no knowledge of the game.

Huge game for the Lakers tonight. They win its a wrap.

Magic will put up a fight but Ko8e might go off after a poor second half last game. Dwight needs to impose his will more often and get bynum into foul trouble early.

Gasoft is going to let Dwight do whatever he wants down low. Lee and Pietrus need to stay out of foul trouble and contain Ko8e. This game can be won.

Dude, you are wrong. Its not about having the knowledge of game or not, its the matter of how passionate fan you are for any given team.

Dude, you are wrong.

It's about how mentally tough you are. Being mentally tough means you have a knowledge of the game, take the beating in the post, know your spots on the court, and how well you respond in adversity. Passion is always nice to have but it's the knowing of executing the plays down the stretch in crucial moments that counts.

Thats so funny. Lets meet on any street in Harlem or Brooklyn with the folks who just missed entering in NBA due to wutever reason, and you'll see what passion is!

Dwight blew it with his free throws.
lakers have basically won the title now..

only teams like cubs can allow someone to win 3 in a row to win the series 7-6

I have never been a fan of street ball since I'm always discipline and study tapes. But hey if you want a one on one show, I am all game. Btw, discipline won over passion last night.

Terrible choke job.

Although D Fish scored the two big 3-pointers that won it for us (first of which tied the game adn 2nd which sealed the win) but i would have to say that Trevor Ariza sparked the laker offense and it was his gritty play that helped win the game when the big guns were sorta struggling.

another stat

Only eight teams have ever overcome a 3-1 deficit to win a best-of-seven series. No team has accomplished that feat in the Finals.

im ready for the parade in downtown next week
