If anybody bothered to see the Lakers make total assholes out of themselves this afternoon, it was embarrassing and a long time coming.
Phil Jackson didn't deserve to sit there and watch his team act like spoiled brats on National television. He's a class guy and it's too bad he has to go out that way, but the Lakers? They suck.

Leonard, in my opinion, something had to go bad wrong with the Lakers for them to not show up at all in this series. When you think about it, they didn't play all that great in the first games before playing the Mavericks. When a team continuously gets wide open shots from any area on the floor, something is bad wrong with what the defense is doing. When they hit them, while your team can't throw it in the ocean and get it wet, it gets worse. I agree with Magic Johnson that a lot of changes are coming. He ought to know since he owns part of the team. The guys that threw the cheap shots should be fined until it hurts.

Phil Jackson resume speaks for it's self. On of the greatest coaches in all of sports.
As for the rest of the Lakers roster. I lost all respect for Kobe with the whole affair thing. Maybe he has (or had) game, but is still a POS. What Bynum an Odom Pulled, pretty much sums up the Lakers for me.
I'm a pretty big sports fan. Not so much for the NBA but in general. Nothing puts a smile on my face then seeing a team like the Lakers get their asses handed to them.
Chim chimney Chim chimney!!!!

Yeah, I'm not a fan of either team especially the Lakers. That being said the 4th quarter was painfull to watch, I can't remember ever seeing a team unravel like that ?
Phil deserves better than that, in particular if that was his last game.
Oh' and what the hell was with Bynum pulling off his jersey ?

In Answer to the original question, No!

Yeah that was some cheap ass shit the Lakers pulled.Bynum was just pulling a Dennis Rodman when he took his shirt off.That's what he used to do when he was ejected from a game.
But then again I have ALWAYS hated the Lakers because I'm a Celtics fan.lol The Celtics could have been in the same position as the Lakers but they pulled there heads out after being down 2-0 to Miami and won game 3.On the inspired play of Rondo.
Good hunting Chad

Tim, I have to agree with you on that. Basketball never interested me and I ain't watch millionare hoods act like they do.

That was great to see. Lakers getting bitch slapped and embarrassing themselves. I've always thought Phil is one of the most arrogant pricks on earth too.
