#33550Well I hope you bet on the Lakers to win the series then.. Because it's a lot of talk right now and no business... Do you post your plays somewhere?Originally posted by Goat MilkIn a game 7 at home Bryant will win by himself.
Game 6 is Boston's to lose
And bryant can't win a game by himself, not against this Celtics TEAM. Bryant scored 38 points, made a lot of 3-pointers and made almost every FT. So what do you mean by "will win it by himself"? He can't win it by himself if the bench scores a toalt of 6 points again and gasol only doing 12? Boston is letting Kobe doing his thing cause they now he can't win it by himself. Last time Lakers won (game 3) they had 4 players doing double digits. The game after that they had 3 players and in game 5 they had 2 players (Bryant and Gasol, duh). It's just a theory but this series looks kinda like the boston-cavs series where boston figured out how to play the Cavs after game 3 then won b2b games and then won the series 4-2 by winning 3 in a row. Lebron was lonely, Kobe is lonely. Boston is a TEAM on the other hand and perhaps the best away team in the league. I like the celtics and I have them winning the NBA finals since long time ago, and I think they have a good shoot at winning atm. Just like LB said Lakers will have a hard time with Bynum unhealthy. And with a Boston team that has won 3 of the last 4 games and is coming into this game mentally strong and prepared and also healthy, the Lakers will have a hard time. Especially if Kobe ISN'T putting up a strong game with 38 points...Comment -

#33563Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers said it first at the post-Game 5 podium - and than his players echoed him at the microphones late into the night:
This was Boston's "biggest game of the year" considering that a loss in the NBA Finals Game 5 would have meant the Los Angeles Lakers would get two opportunities to win just one game.
Now, of course, the Lakers - now down three games to two following Sunday night's 92-86 loss -- have no margin for error plus Phil Jackson's crew must stare at a bit of history themselves.
Keep in mind that the Lakers won Game 1 of this set and Jackson-coached teams are a collective 47-and-oh in playoff series when winning the opener but now chew on this ... The Celtics have never (ever) blown a three games-to-two series lead in NBA Finals history and teams that win an NBA Finals Game 5 after the set's been knotted at two games apiece have gone a collective 19-6 - meaning that Game 5 winners in these situations have won the championship a whopping 76 percent of the time.
Honestly, we're not quite sure whether those numbers frighten Jackson and his defending champs or not but we do know there has to be some major panic setting in 'round Hollywood today - if Game 5 proved nothing else it showed that the Lakers have turned themselves back into a one-man gang again and, even with Kobe Bryant pouring in a game-high 38 points, the Lakers still couldn't get the job done at "The Garden".
We'll expand on some of the real reasons the Celtics gobbled up the Game 5 win and we'll look ahead to Tuesday's Game 6 plus there's lead series 3-2
Game #5: BOSTON 92, LOS ANGELES LAKERS 86
This time it wasn't "Shrek" and "Donkey" winning it for the Celtics (although Glen "Big Baby" Davis and Nate Robinson helped) but rather three of the four major kingpins on this team ... and they received plenty of help from the opposition too.
After four games of the NBA Finals where he rarely stamped his imprint on this series, Boston's Paul Pierce (27 points on 12-of-21 field-goal shooting in Game 5) was the biggest noise-maker for the home team and born-again Kevin Garnett (18 points and 10 rebounds) and do-it-all point guard Rajon Rondo (18 points, 8 assists and 5 rebs) really shined too and all of the above made big-time plays in the fourth quarter when the Lakers finally trimmed a 13-point Celtics lead down to five points.
But while the Celtics were all smiles en route to a 56 percent shooting game (that's 40-of-71 FGs) the fact of the matter is the Lakers didn't defend - even Bryant took slept-walked through some Boston possessions - but maybe the biggest item that was barely touched upon both during and after the game was LA's rotten free-throw shooting.
Not only did NBA Finals bust Ron Artest miss two critical FTs late when the Lakers could have climbed within three points of a tie game late, there were two free-throw misses in succession by Lamar Odom in the second half and a grand total of nine missed foul shots (out of 26) that was much bigger than anyone stated when summarizing this Game 5.
Consider that if the Lakers just would have split the Artest/Odom FT misses, than maybe the game's last 90 seconds would have played out differently - instead the Celtics got the ball into the hands of their dependable FT shooters and put this one on ice (yes, the Celtics only went 9-of-13 from the charity stripe but didn't miss late from the line when it mattered).
As far as the theme for Game 5, well, the Celtics found plenty of holes in LA's defense and Pierce and Company were quick to get off undefended jumpers all night long all the while Bryant had to fight his way for a little opening while making good on a slew of ridiculously tough shots. Maybe Kobe showed that he lost faith in his teammates - hey, who could have blamed him on this night? - but what's worth commenting on here is that Lakers power forward Pau Gasol never did impose his will on this clash despite the "double-double" figure of 12 points and 12 rebounds and it's become obvious that lacking a quality point guard has hurt LA the deeper this series goes - nice night for ABC to put Derek Fisher's family story up there at halftime of a game he disappeared in (see 2-of-9 FG shooting with 9 points and no defensive stops)!
No doubt one part of the Lakers' Game 6 game plan will be to get some energy going from folks other than Bryant - and it appears center Kevin Bynum (6 points and only 1 board in 31 mostly-silent minutes in Game 5) won't be a big factor with his knee woes - and so maybe this is the game where the aforementioned Odom has to stuff the stat sheet box score.
On the flip side, the Celtics love what they've gotten on "D" in this series - note that the Lakers are averaging just 90 points a game following that 102-point output in Game 1 - and it sure didn't escape boss-man Jackson that his club allowed 21 assists on Sunday night (the Lakers had just 12 assists with 13 turnovers) and that means Boston is sharing the ball well and moving the ball well ... always one thing that Rivers has been repeating when the ABC "mikes" are in his huddle.
