game over...series over....what ********. I hate boston, but this was deserved

agreed, maby Lakers can win the next game but there's no way they can beat Boston 2 in a row in Beantown

 

[omid17]

What the hell happened to Vujacic when he let Allen make the easy run to the basket?

i have no ****ing idea

I said that during the 2004 ALCS when the Yankees were beating the Red Sox. The series is not over untill the Celtics win another game.

 

[Bond]

Wow.

Did everyone see how pissed Vujacic was during the timeout after Ray Allen blew past him?

 

[MoPlaYa]

Celtics FTW!!! There is no way Lakers can come back 3-1 with 2 games in Boston...Woot!!!

 

[Mister J]

That was a real team effort on Boston's part in making that comeback. HUGE efforts from House and Posey; KG actually established himself a little in the paint to get some nice inside buckets, Pierce had the penetration going and Allen was just everywhere. Just damn nice to watch all around.

What the hell happened to Vujacic when he let Allen make the easy run to the basket?

Looked like he got too aggressive in trying to deny the J. He played up too close and couldn't stop him from driving by without grabbing/bumping him.

 

[DarthRekal]

What a bunch of chokers....

Clyde err Kobe Bryant ... dissappears in the Finals again... guess he REALLY does need Shaq...

we can only hope for Bynum to be somewhat decent... god this is embarrasing... I'm proud of my guys for getting here.. but frickin FIGHT for it... ridiculous.. utterly inexcusable...

What a disappointing end to a GREAT season... and now we have to win 4 more to beat Boston... GREAT!...

Sorry i'm trying to be gracious... but this is just ****in stupid... all i can hope is that we dont let them win it here in LA... i dont want those ****s celebrating here...

you'll excuse me if i abandon hope.. as im a skeptic by nature.... sure we can win 3 in a row... but who honestly thinks thats gonna happen

is it still too late to trade Kobe????

Spoiler

Congrats on your chip Celtics.. I WONT SAY IT AGAIN... cause i HATE the Celtics... but y'all deserve it...

talk to y'all later ... good season

 

[LastSunrise1981]

Great comeback by the Celtics and a great win. I honestly believe this series is over for Los Angeles and that there's no coming back for them. I could be wrong, but if I am wrong on this account, then Boston has already accomplished what they wanted to do and that was pick up one in Los Angeles.

The real test is will they finish off the Lakers or will they lose a game so they can win it in Boston? As a fan of the game I believe they should do their very best to finish them off and not play around.

like DR said hope they don't let them win in LA

 

[Mister J]

You know what?; after watching the replay, **** what I said earlier. Sasha might as well have said 'Ole!' when Allen went by. Maybe he thought he had helpside D coming, but that was just weak.

 

[Raiden]

Any team that gave up 24 pts. at home and lost don't really deserve to be called the best team in the NBA. As much as I hate the Celtics, I will concede that they are the better team in this series. It's a good thing that Lakers are young, and I hope that they will learn from this and become a better team next year. Btw, I don't think Lakers should give Odom the extension now; 13 mil for #3 guy who disappeared in the Finals just not really worth it.

Excuse me while I vent my frustration elsewhere...

But for real, ook man, love the graciousness seriously ...but stick by your team for real! Sox were down 3-0 to yankees you see us jumping ship?

The series is NOT over; the lakers might be very embrassed and Celtics as high as theyll ever get without drugs...but its not over.

 

[NewYorkSpider]

Looking at the replays, he must have thought he had help coming. Just looking at the expression on his face when Allen went by said it all.

 

[LastSunrise1981]

like DR said hope they don't let them win in LA

That would be the ideal situation for them. But either way they'll celebrate like no tomorrow whether it's in Los Angeles or Boston, you know? Although I have a feeling that LA fans would riot if Boston wins the next one.

 

[12 Bladez]

Can someone make a gif of Pierce blocking Kobe's fadeaway?!

Has anyone ever blocked Kobe's fade straight-up like that? Sick. Play of the game next to Ray's reverse lay-in imo.

Conrgrats Celts from this Laker-fan.

not jumping ship... just deflated... theres a semblance of hope... but i cant afford the doctors bill right now.. so let me stay negative as to NOT get suicidal

 

[LastSunrise1981]

For someone who supposedly "sticks by his team" and has been a "Laker fan for years", Rekal sure has given up on them really quick and doesn't have much faith in them. I realize I've said if Boston wins one in LA it's over, however, anything can happen and this could possibly fire up the Lakers to the point that they play out of their minds.

I am not going to celebrate or say it's over for sure now. I think it's over, but I have a feeling that Boston might not win the next one though. I have a firm belief that Kobe and the Lakers do not want Boston celebrating on their court for the next game.

This is an historic rivalry that is considered to be the classics of classics and it's going to be interesting to see what happens.

LS this is how i feel right now

im superman, and the Lakers are Lex Lethor

Do you think that I gave up hope when the Cavs were down 3-0 in last years finals? It didn't look good at the time, but I had faith.

David Stern should tell his refs to make sure the Celtics win.

 

[TheComicbookKid]

Damn, I can't believe it. I turned away at the start of the third quarter because I believed it was a lost cause. YEAH CELTICS!!!!!!

 

[LastSunrise1981]

Bit of an hyperbole don't you think?

Even Superman came back to fight another day and save the world. I just have a feeling Kobe has a mindset to not let Boston win the next one in LA. Can you imagine that scene? The most intense/historic rivalry coming to an end in LA? I just believe Kobe refuses to allow that to happen so he'll do whatever it takes to make sure it doesn't transpire.

 

[DarthRekal]

Do you think that I gave up hope when the Cavs were down 3-0 in last years finals? It didn't look good at the time, but I had faith.

listen.. im NOT giving up hope... i will still root for them to win... especially on sunday.. i dont want those ****s in my city anymore



but how many teams have come back 3-1 in the Finals???

i have a better chance of dying on a rollercoaster... gettin hit by lightning... winning the lottery....


excuse me if i dont JUMP for joy.. for being in this position.. i dont recall the Cavs... giving up 24pt leads...

 

[omid17]

I just feel bad for those people who bought courside tickets for for ****ing $22,000 dollars and im not joking that's how much it cost

 

[LastSunrise1981]

You can stop with the stupid sarcastic remarks regarding my beliefs about the NBA's front offices.

With that said it's going to be an interesting Game 5. Wouldn't be surprised to see the next one go down to the wire and maybe Kobe going for 60.
