So it's safe the series is decided on Friday with Game 3?

That's all that really matters. You can't expect someone to be what they are not.

If Dallas wins game 3, nail in the coffin, obviously. Down 0-3? Kobe The Great, and defending two time champs be damned. Ain't no way they can come back from 0-3.

[SneakerProSr.]

If we go up even 3-1 I think its a wrap.

Its hard to beat any team three straight times.

[fuser86]

All the Mavs need to do is double up quick on our BIGs, have them kick it out to the guards and let them settle for long 3s/jumpers; as they've been doing and they will win this series.

Lakers on the otherhand, need to force the issue and keep feeding the bigs. The Mavs will double up on our bigs and when they do our guards must feed the ball back to the post. That will likely draw fouls on Chandler. In any event, our guards still have to take shots and they must shoot at a higher percentage to get back in this series.

He literally can have any woman he wants, he's smart, and living in one of the best cities in the world, playing for the best franchise in basketball. Really fam? Man the %$*% up! He's the key to us getting back in this series, we know he can't stop or even slow Dirk down, but at least make him work on the defensive end by putting pressure on him. Maybe he'll actually expend some energy and won't torch us as badly as he has so far.

Bottom line, Kobe and everyone else can come to play and do all they can, but if "All-Star Pau Gasol" doesn't finally show up, it's all for naught, we CAN'T win.

The 1st qtr will tell me how the rest of this series is going to go, if the Lakers come out focused and sharp on D, I have confidence they'll win Game 3 and be back in this series. But if they can't withstand the early energy in AAA and get blitzed early, it's going to be all she wrote.

+1000

I just rewatched game 2 and Steve Blake is one of the best players on the Mavericks.

He played like garbage.

OMG steve blake in game 1... 0 for 1 from the field no assists, and one rebound i think in 17 minutes. how is that real life??

i dont even wanna see his game 2 stats

If Lakers take game 3 which I think they will.

I'm pretty confident they also take game 4 to tie up the series.

This series is very far from over.
