NBA Playoffs 2009

Seems like they are, right now... Bryant's as much a monster as James, only the Lakers actually have other good players.

Another thing I'm noticing... this game is going a lot faster. I think there have been fewer foul calls, is what it is... but maybe it's just me.

Edit: Ick. Down by ten at the half... Not good.
 
Well, it's not like the Magic haven't come back from big leads before, lol. They definitely have the fire power to do so, but Lakers have more weapons so it might not be as easy as the Cleveland series.

Kobe please go cold in the second-half. :cross-eye
 
Exactly. This series is going to be much harder than against the Cavs.

Somehow I doubt Kobe'll just go cold. He has to prove he can win a championship without Shaq, remember. That's going to count for something, I think.
 
I love how all the Lebron commercials are gone and we're FINALLY seeing some Dwight Howard commercials.
 
The Vitamin Water one was funny. xD But the one with the Lebron puppet and the chalk just cracked me up.

Edit: Argh! The Magic just can't get a shot in... but Kobe is having no trouble at all.

I'm on the verge of turning the TV off... it's just ridiculous. If the Magic keep playing like this, they're going to be swept in their first second time in the Finals.

It's actually their second time, but who's counting. :laugh: That was 14 years ago though.

Ironically, they were swept by the Rockets in that series.

Kobe played great like usual. The rest of the team also stepped it up tonight. It seems the Lakers don't want to get messed up in this series like they did against the Celtics.
 
My hypothesis is that the Lakers will win the championship but I guess we'll just have to see. I'm also hoping for the Lakers ever since the Celtics lost.
 
I can't see Orlando winning the championship now. They're down 2 - 0 but they're going back to Orlando so I expect Orlando to win at least 1. Unless Orlando, namely Dwight Howard, Turkoglu, etc, don't start making shots, they're going to lose in Orlando.

Well, this series is over. Magic choked big time. :/

Foul shot misses did them in, sadly. ;_; Would've been a rout if they made those simple-line shots. =(

I'm not gonna give up on them yet though, I'm just that kind of person.
 
Magic FTW.(I had to post this, didn't I?)
I like both teams, but the Magic need to do some work. Lakers? Doing too much.

Personally, I'm going for the Magic.
(Besides, I did that game on Live 09 and won with the Magic. Hmm....)
 
I knew the Magic were going to lose once Fisher hit that amazing three pointer. They really should have fouled once he crossed the half court line. The Magic have never had any OT drive and this game stood true to that theory.
 
Very true point.

And WHY the hell does Howard make dumb-ass fouls like that?(Forgive language) I mean, seriously.
