Congrats Fastmandoo, bullishtrade and other Lakers fans! Unfortunately, tho, lol, true basketball fans had to endure another extremely ugly game. When will the NBA learn, as in a similar NHL correlation, that PURE basketball/hockey is much more entertaining and talent displaying than this longstanding, USA Olympic losing, "playoff rules ugliness"...lol...enjoy. And that's not a swipe at either team but, rather, at the NBA. The teams will play as the league dictates. Different rules for the regular season and different rules for the playoffs. Good thing that the NBA doesn't dictate international competition and rules...for the sanctity, well being, inherent beauty of the sport.
Please don't call me un-American but...I love it when the European teams beat team USA with their superior team basketball and movement/shooting of the ball. Just my opinion on how the game was meant to be played.
Ok, I'm off my soap box. Enjoy the parade!
Thanks again, Fastmandoo and board posters, for the message board!
Catch you all on the rebound...
