that doesn't explain them going 0-6 on the road in the playoffs....they were 31-10 in the regular season...Doc Rivers did something right in the regular season, so I don't think it's Doc River's fault...

No, Doc should shoulder a lot of the blame. He has made horrible substitution decisions and he lets the team keep playing sloppy while the other team is on a run. I have never sat around calling Doc the greatest coach in the world, but I've never understood why he caught so much flak. I'm starting to get there now...

when you have KG, Paul Pierce, and Ray allen all starting....you should not go 0-6 on the road in the playoffs...simple as that...

Ray Allen should shoulder the entire blame. He's been absolutely horrid (not that Pierce has always been outstanding). They need the entirety of the "Big Three" for them to actually play like the Celtics.

If Korver bricks another three I'm going to donkey punch him.

I agree with this statement 100%. When Wally Sczerbiak is outplaying you, you have issues. No heart. The other problem is that they all stand around worrying about making each other happy and pass with wide open shots. Someone (Kevin Garnett) needs to step up and put the team on their back. That's the one benefit guys like Kobe and Lebron have being THE MAN on their team, is that they know when it's not working and they need to take over. Garnett could be owning this series and he's essentially chosen not to. It kills me to watch him make a move to the hoop, be staring at the rim eye level just having to push it in, and then sneak it over to Perkins so he can put the ball on the floor and then get blocked.
Makes no sense to me but hey, they'll have to live with all their big talk going for nothing if they keep this **** up...

Would they find a ******* consistent pronunciation of Gasol and just run with it. God this is annoying and has been for weeks.

Because I said Ronnie Brewer is a good defender that means I am saying that Utah is a good defensive team?

that is my mistake...I thought you were referring to Utah's Defense...
still, the Lakers were are playing lights out right now...
Vujacic, Fisher, and Radmanovich are all playing extremely well...makes Kobe's life easy

Ha. Boozer, Okur, and Korver are awful defenders and Kirilenko has developed into a lousy on the ball defender, so nah I'd never make that statement. The Lakers have this game in the books though, sorry I doubted you earlier.

Boozer is horrible this series....
Ronnie Brewer though is going to be a great player...he's a bit inconsistent right now but with another year, he should be lights out...

The Jazz desperately need a defensive anchor in the post. They should go after Diop in Free Agency or pray that someone like Robin Lopez falls to them in the draft.

Utah just went on a little run to cut the deficit to 13 points....
The Lakers are just playing way too well right now for Utah to come back...IMO

I guess I underestimated how much of a badass Paul Millsap is.

We need a guy like him on the Mavericks, he doesn't need to do much but he does the litte things so well if you already have a good team.

If we had more guys like Brandon Bass we would be fine, I love Bass don't get me wrong, but if we got started bringingin somebody like Artest we would be fine...Bass is the exact type of player I want to have on our roster just more guys...Remember a few years ago when we had Najera coming off the bench, Jamison, we had quite a few guys off the bench who could do the dirty work...Bass is the only guy who played with heart vs New Orleans, if we had guys like him in our starting lineup we might of had a chance.
