OFFICIAL 2020 NBA PLAYOFF THREAD - DISNEY COVID INVITATIONAL EDITION - MAMBA FOREVER - LAKERS WIN THE RONA RAND - ALA FOREVER

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Of course Tayshaun was really good but I don’t know i would trust whatever the man said over what you think.

What would make him not say Tayshaun?

That's just how he was. You can trust what you want bro

 

[champcruthik]

Wrong answers only? Ruben Patterson & Raja Bell.

 

[don ramon]

did any of you guys hear about this? The refs finally admitting that they screwed up that Jimmy Butler turnover and the fact that he should have been shooting two free throws. That literally changed the game. I don't think it'll have much consequence on the outcome of the series but it was still a major blunder.

standards are pretty low man.
accountability should be more than "yeah, you got us. we messed up (and won't do anything about it)"

after the fact changes absolutely nothing moving forward. i have a huge problem with the refereeing system in the nba. they just keep on going without ever making corrections or demoting some of these refs who often rely more on players and coaches telling them they made a bad call than their own training. nba needs a massive overhaul and re-training of refs.

I really only remember Tayshaun guarding Kobe in the 2004 Finals well. He might've guarded him well post-2004, I just don't recall because the Piston faded to Bolivia a few years later.

But Tony made Kobe work for his points from ~2010 until he retired.

Edit:

Thabo was really good defending Kobe too.

 

[trynafeelmink]

Are you as dense in real life?
Or are you just plain corny?


We were having a conversation on defenders guarding kobe. Yet you bring up Harden again.

Just making an observation

touchy subject I see

 

[Maximus Meridius]

I legit have no idea where the Lakers/Rockets beef came from on this website.

Same place every fan of a western conference team has beef with the Lakers.

It's dudes in here that root for multiple teams in the west just outta hate for the Lakers.

Nah it ain’t a touchy subject It’s just corny even for your low standards

Houston cheated LA out of a World Series
F Houston

Shane Battier did a great job on him but usually Kobe adjusted. Shane rarely fouled and never went for the block. He knew he couldn't, so he always contested with the hand in the face. To the point where I thought he would poke him in the eye here and there.

They had a nice little respectful rivalry over the years.

 

[wavycrocket]

Just take care of business Lakers.

we all deserve to see LAC/LAL series.

This thread needs it.

Nobody wants to see that.

 

[P C H]

Broke

[B Sox]

Funny how some opinions on Rondo seem to have changed mighty quickly. Goofy dudes.

 

[P C H]

Facts. Dude really think Kobe believes this

hahahahahahaha omg

Kobe used to torch Battier when he was younger in Memphis.

But Battier definitely got wiser and made Kobe work for his points in Houston.

I didn't even know there was Lakers Rockets beef until this series started. This is all new to me. I didn't really ever check for the rockets like that. I feel like these rockets fans are letting out years of frustration

 

[pums]

I’m chill lol . I’ve known for a minute you aren’t exactly the intellectual type.

Lakers fans have started rivalries/bickering based of draft lotteries.
