I hope LeBLM breaks his femur and tears his anterior cruciate ligament.

...And then the ambulance is engulfed in a fiery explosive accident enroute to the hospital.





But, sadly, your bet is probably going to pay. ^!:

In Phoenix, I agree. I'm playing Phoenix tonight and then Lakers series if it does go to 2-0.

Home court really could play a factor in this series. The crowd was only at 2/3 capacity in game 1 in PHX and you could tell that place was rocking. The Suns announced today they will basically be full capacity for the rest of the playoffs after this game 2.

I believe LA is capped at 1/3 capacity. Big difference in energy.

Wow. This game is physical. Reminds me of 80's/90's NBA playoff basketball. Love it.

Very physical and dominated by inside play

Lakers doubling down on the big guy strategy by adding Gasol to the mix.

It's official Mark Gasol is a full blown fat boy, did not stay as fit towards the tail end of his career like big brother Pau.

Lakers gonna get away with playing pretty crappy again. They were more engaged this game, but the shooting continues to suck

The Chris Paul playoff choke gene looked like it rubbed off on his teammates in these last few minutes

Me too.

The LeBron factor gets you points going against him.

Phoenix is a better team than the Lakers IMHO.

Theyre really not. Playoffs are a different animal, and the Lakers have the two best players in the series. Experience also a factor — LeBron has played 40 more playoff games than the entire Phoenix roster (including Chris Paul).

Lakers issue is they haven’t played much together in the last couple of months. Their chemistry is off but they are undoubtedly the better of the two teams

Lakers may be good, but perhaps the Clippers shouldn't have tanked to avoid their side of the bracket in favor of playing Dallas

Man not to inject politics, but the libs fucked them good. Would Dallas shoot 53% from 3 in a arena that wasn't stone cold empty? I dunno, but I'd probably bet against it.

Idiot, are you right about anything..

Yeah that you're an asshole and I'd kick your teeth in if we were live somewhere.

Lakers laying 7 in Game 3. Looks a little fishy to me; route?

Watched last quarter in game 2. Lakers will win series. AD/LJ were unstoppable. Like someone said here about not playing together is coming together at the right time. Pointspread is always a guess but Money Line belongs to Lakers...
