Official Los Angeles Lakers Thread

If Minny wins Ill ask Pod to ban me, no way in hell will that happen. No way in hell do the Wolves stack up to the Lakers.

Center : Shaq Vs Olowokandi

Do I even need to go into this one, Its obviously Olowokandi, I mean look at his stats.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/player...e?statsId=3244

Now if those arnt the stats of a champion I just dont know what is. *sarcasm*

Advantage : Shaq


Power Forward: Garnett vs Malone

Im a big Garnett fan, and there is no way you can argue that Malone is better then Garnett. However, Malone can make one hell of an impact against him. When Malone played THE FULL GAME, Garnett scored a whopping 16 points, not only that he got 10 rebounds.................................oh ya forgot about Malone, he only scored 1 more then Garnett and got one more rebound.................also 1 more steal................and 2 more assists..............better FG%....................and played 1 less minute. Now who had the better stats there.

Advantage: On most games Garnett, however here, got to go with the Push

Small Forward:orge vs Szczerbiak

George is ™™™™aki mushrooms (didnt want to swear lol) Szczerbiak can shoot. But when you have 4 all star + feature hall of famers, does one position really make that much of a difference, esspecially when the better player is only above average..............nope

advantage: Szczerbiak

Shooting Guard: Kobe vs Spree

Spree is stepping up his game....................but its Kobe, nuff said

Advantage: Kobe

Point Guard: Payton vs Cassel

Payton is getting old, but he can still ball. Cassel is injured...........and gimp. The fart beats the gimp any day of the week............. and this wont change. If Cassel indeeds play he wont be able to stop Payton, and if he dosnt play, the back up wont be able to stop Payton. Cassel better heel quick, the Wolves will need him..................

Advantage: The Glove (I love his shoes from a few years about, I had them for basketball and gave me mad game..........so what I was only 8 I still had mad game :D )

Lakers Bench vs Wolves Bench

Both the Benches suck, Fisher aint bad though, however they dont really got anyone else. But does it really matter when you have 4 feature hall of famers who will play at least 35 minutes a game.............nope.................however Madsen has man dancing skills, so Ill go with the Wolves.

Advantage: Madsen's dancing over Fisher's great shots.

As I have proven, there is no way the Wolves can make it past the Lakers.

Oops almost forgot to say................Lakers have Phil Jackson .................he never loses.

5/26/04: well, the Lakers won by triple digits

and incredibly, the fact that Kobe took a whopping 2 shots didn't hurt them at all.

Shaq had a pretty good game, with 22 points, 17 boards, but went 8-22 from the free throw line. Wow, does Shaq suck! He followed a 9-11 free throw shooting (you ain't gonna see that again any time soon), with misery in games 2 and 3.

Karl did well, with 11 points, and forced KG to work hard on both ends of the court.

Gary had a tremendous 1st quarter with 14 points, and 18 overall

Devean finally showed up, with 12 points on 5-8 shooting after scoring a whopping 5 points in the first 2 games

Cassell did a great job, with about 18 points in only 26 minutes before sitting due to back spasms. What a shame that Cassell is hurt.

KG had 22 points, but shot 9-21. He is having to do way too much, being a point guard, setting picks, rebounding, and then playing defense vs. Shaq and scoring.

This is what Kobe should consider when he is "opting out" --- it's not easy being the focal point of the team, when no one else is that great.

You mean they SCORED in triple digits? They only won by double digits.

naturally, that was an error.

has there ever been a time when one team outscores another by triple digits? at any level - kindergarden, elementary school, high school, college?

Still a minute left in the game, but it's clear the refs have pretty much slammed the door shut on the wolves. Good to see they're doing their part to make sure the Lakers crush any opposition.

You know what I especially love? When the refs actually call a foul on the Lakers, causing Kobe/Shaq/Whoever to jump up and down in anger, and then they look as if they can't believe the ref just called a foul.

A foul? On the Lakers? What are the refs thinking? This is LA, Shaq can travel with the ball any damn time he pleases.

It's also nice to see the roll the refs play in Shaq's title of "Most Dominant Ever." I mean come on, if the refs actually called fouls on him, or at least had enough courage to call a travel every now and then, the games would be a lot more exciting. Not to mention the fact that Shaq has no basketball skill.

Do you honestly think the refs are that damn biased. You really think they think like that. Now natuarly your a T-wolves fan so your gonna think every foul against the Lakers is biased. But do you honestly beilive everyword that comes out of your mouth. I would like to see you ref, if there that damn biased they would be fired.

Nearly everytime Kobe, or any laker, takes the ball to the hoop, there's a foul called. Kevin Garnett gets no fouls called his way. Shaq always gets calls his way, not just from these refs, but from all refs in general.

And Yes, I am a TWolves fan, that probibly affects my thinking here, but it's just unbelieveable some of the calls that go one way but not the other.
