Now I am not saying, the fix is in...but i am not saying it isn't...but when history repeats itself, does anyone notice? Lets take a look back to February 22 against this very same Portland team. Lakers struggled to handle them at home...but pulled out the victory late in the 4th...but only because the game WAS RIGGED from top to bottom..
Portland = 12 Free Throw Attempts
Los Angels = 34 Free Throw Attempts
And still only won by 4 points......you folks need to come across on this issue if you think the fix is not in.......IT IS......You mean to tell me that Lamarcus Aldridge had 5 fouls....and Kobe " The peoples elbow" Bryant only had 1 foul? Am I bobo the fool? Do you folks even realize that the free throw disparity in that Portland game was actually worse than the 2010 GAME 7 NBA Finals totals....where Kobe went 6 for 24....but still won the game because.....
Boston = 17 Free Throw Attempts
LA = 37 Free Throw Attempts
The Lakers had 20 more attempts at the line than Boston did......but what we saw against Portland back on February 22 was even worse.....Lakers had 22 more attempts than Portland!!!
But you see this is something you can come to expect when Stern wants something done....He wants Kobe in the 1st round and no matter how ridiculous it looks on paper at the end of the game...Stern and his Cronie refs will find a way to get it done no matter what....Not saying its fixed....lol.......but I'm not saying it isn't. Portland may have shut it down for the year according to several people on this board...maybe LA wins straight up...either way.....I'd tread carefully with this one...
