Lakers looked unbeatable tonight

Probably too soon to say, but those nonchalant Lakers look dead.
too bad for Orlando/Cleveland.

Yeah. Everything was going right for them. I was stunned to see them take their play in LA to Denver. It`s like they picked up right where they left off. Denver tried to make it close, but it was just too much for them.

I can't wait to go to Staples Center this year

last year i think ESPN or the NBA had a bunch of stuff set up outside. Like a giant trophy and a bunch of other stuff. I wasn't able to go see it. i'll be there this year

Lol true. Although, he isn`t necessarily wrong because they didn`t lose, nor is he right. It`s more of a mutual thing. I just cant wait for Orlando/Cleveland to play them. No matter the outcome of that series, it will make a must see final, if either team makes it.

Lakers aren't mentally tough
Lakers can't win 2 games in Denver
Lakers don't have heart
Lakers are soft
Denver is too physical

blah blah blah

Lakers are in the Finals again, and just murdered Denver.
See ya next year Melo
Are you trying to say the Lakers aren't soft? Because they obviously are. One game doesn't make up for everything.
And where is Bynum? The Lakers will need him if they want any chance of stopping Dwight Howard down low or keeping LeBron from getting easy buckets in the paint.

I'd just like to know how a team goes from being soft to not soft, and mentally unstable to stable because of one game?

the old lakers wouldn't have won this game.

they were super focused tonight. c'mon, you didn't think they would win tonight. no one did outside of L.A.
Bynum was physical tonight, Odom was physical, Pau was physical, you saw Ariza, Kobe was insane as usual.
Lakers lead the whole game. Denver lead for like 1 minute.
We look badass tonight. I'm liking what I'm seeing

Yea, these kind of Lakers always show up some times, then you'll see them fade away for a few games.

I don't know how we're gonna win game 6... Mickael Pietrus turns into Ray Allen at home and I don't know what to expect from Alton. Hedo has been quiet in Orlando shooting wise so I'm not worried about him and Rashard is on a cold streak. Just put Varejao on Howard, run around the floor crazy for rebounds, flops, etc and make him angry :D

Lakers are in for a rude awakening when they play a tougher EC team.

I was feeling sick yesterday. So I would catch a few minutes and go to sleep and follow that pattern throughout the game.

Don't worry, now that Kobe is in the NBA finals again, the NBA will rig the Magic/Cavs series so that the Cavs will win in 7.

Why do you watch the NBA if you think its rigged? They aren't going to pull any favors for Jersey so no point in watching, right?

I'm not saying it's rigged all the time. But given this circumstance, the league wants Kobe vs. LeBron, and that is probably what will happen unless the Magic step up to a new level tonight.
