Official Laker-Hater Championship thread. Whining encouraged!! - Page 10

Gee whiz the officiating in that game tonight was awful, absolutely awful. If I didn't know any better, I'd said they were blantantly in favor of the Lakers the last 3 minutes of the 4th quarter then most of OT, then all of a sudden in the last 20 seconds they were suddenly pro-Wolves. The fouls Kobe Bryant gets are ridiculous. It's not the fact that he gets the fouls, it's the fact that there is 10 times more bumping going the other way that isn't called, at least Danny Ainge has the balls to call it out. I don't have a clue what game John Thompson was watching. I actually thought the strangest thing was the fact that they DIDN'T call a couple fouls in favor of the Lakers at the end of OT. I thought the shot Bryant put up should have been called a legitimate foul, and they didn't call it. Horrible, horrible officiating...really turns me off to even watching to watch this disaster...

I never thought I'd have a flash back of when I was in 1st grade, but I did tonight watching this game...it reminded me of the WWF. So many bogus calls, inconsistent calling, etc, etc. It made me puke. Let them win or lose it on their own.

Horry just supplanted Divac as the flop king. Horry flopped on Garnett without even being touched 25 feet from the basket. The league should be outraged that an all-star of Garnett's calibar was sent to the bench with the game on the line in OT on a flop.

What is it about games in LA, the refs seem to go stupid and blind.

ROYC75 · 04-25-2003, 06:38 AM

It's like I have said all along.............

NO 4 PEAT THIS YEAR !

bkkcoh · 04-25-2003, 06:47 AM

How in the world can a big man play 46 minutes a power game and only get 1 foul...

Ultra Peanut · 04-25-2003, 06:50 AM

Amazing job by the T'Wolves to win despite being RAPED by the officials.

suds79 · 04-25-2003, 07:34 AM

After further review, I can honestly say that was the worse officiated basketball game I've ever seen.

And I think I've seen enough. K.G. is the MVP mark it down. His game is just so good. Basically he has all the moves Kobe & McGrady have but he's 6'11! He can hit that turn-around fade away jumper, he can post up, he can put the ball on the floor, he can hit that outside shot (just inside the 3 usually) just as good as the other guys and he rebounds. Given his talent & heigth, I just dont' see how you can pass him up.

Yep. The SAME thing happened to the Kings last year. GO WOLVES! GO ANYBODY EXCEPT THE LAKERS!

One flop and he passes Vladeflop? You are about as objective as Remount and Talibanme. As a Laker fan I was totally embarassed and he better not do it again.

Congratulations to the TDogs who certainly deserved that game.

And the year before that you said no Three Peat.

What do you want a medal for hopping on the Laker-hating bandwagon?

There is a big difference, Divac waits for contact to flop, Horry doesn't need the contact he just flops. And, don't play naive, Horry flops are as common as Divac's.

Don't forget Kobe, he is a flopper on the three point line. Put a hand in his face and he will flop. Many shooters will flop to try and get to the line.

I guess the difference between the Lakers and the Kings is the Kings wait for the contact to flop. The only reason Divac has a reputation is Shaq crys to the media and refs because everytime he lowers a shoulder Divac will go down on contact. But, at least there is contact.

I hope you are preparing yourself for a Kings vs T-Wolves / Spurs finals.

I hate it when all the star players do this... (and Kobe is guilty)

But you see a star guard go up, get stuffed or stripped CLEAN and they'll throw up their arms like real quick, flop their legs around, yell "ahhh!!" and then look at the ref. Be a man and just admit the other guy made a good play. They look like a fish out of water they're floppin so bad. Just because you might be the best player in the world, doesn't mean another professional can't make a good play against you.

Normal people are guilty of this to.

Have you ever seen someone walk down a sidewalk, stumble over a crack and turn to look at the sidewalk afterwards like there's something wrong with the ground? Same thing. Be a man and just admit that for that moment you were simply a clumsy b!tch who looked silly.

As for the actual (old) topic, I hate the Lakers. I hate the Kings even more. **** Peja Stoycrockofshit and that bitch-assed Floppe.

LOL

At anyone foolish enough to think the Lakers cannot win it all this year.

Oh and the season starts in May with the playoffs, this is all just practice for the 5 top teams, Lakers, Kings, San Antonio T-Wolves and Dallas

(shovel, shovel, shovel.....)

The Lake Show (31-19) has just released the 2nd half clutch on the Championship stick shift.

The Sacktown Euros just clinched the 1st half trophy (again?), which guarantees them a 2nd round flameout against the Hall of Fame crew residing in Staples.

The Mavs have ZERO defense.
The Boot Accessorizors have match-up problems with Shaq+Mailman.
Yao hasn't felt play-off pressure yet.
TWolves will be tough IF they can actually win a series.

Everyone else in the league is just play-off filler.

The only problems I foresee with the Zenmaster is his retirement after nabbing his 10th ring (surpassing that freak Aurebach).

It's all good out here in Cali.............
