no no the lakers are done, the finals wouldve ended tonight if kobe didnt pull that lucky three out in game two that took it into over time. The lakers suck, they shouldnt have even made it to the finals. It shouldve been the spurs and the pistons.

The Lakers are in the finals because of the higher ratings they generate. What ****es me off more than anything else is Shaq and Phil Jackson complaining about the officiating instead of giving the opposition credit. This is the first time Jackson is in danger of losing a Finals and Shaq likes to kill everyone else but does not like to be even looked wrong without expecting a foul. The Pistons need to win Game 5 because there is no way they will be allowed to win in L.A for Games 6 & 7. Jackson & Shaq and someone needs to ask them if they want some cheese with that whine. The whine and cheese party maybe be Tuesday in Auburn Hills. It sucks because I( would like to see the Mailman get a ring but my hatred for Shaquille O'Neal runs much deeper than my hopes for Karl Malone's championship run. The Bad Boys are back and have beaten the Lakers into denial. Hopefully Tuesday they beat the Lakers into submission.

I sure hope the Pistons can pull one more win off at home. These past four games have been the first time in a long time that I've actually been interested in pro-basketball. Go Detroit! (Gotta make up for the Wings some how)

Some people never realize the obvious. Lakers are through, maybe not in 5 games, but they are done.

It sure is nice to watch an NBA finals that is not dominated by the west coast. Doesn't matter to me who wins, It's just fun to watch.

This season has made me lose any interest in the NBA. They made the biggest mistake when they forced the lakers into the finals. All the foul stats are there, the Lakers win because the NBA wants them to. It is just sad.

Any Lakers game you watch, especially while it is in LA, you can easily see how one sided every call is. Each time I sat down to watch a game I ended up turning it off because it made me so mad to watch all the BS.

Oh well, it will get back to the NBA in due time.

Well I will admit that the Pistons played great basketball! I still love my Lakers, but I am women enough to admit that they deserved it
I was fortunate enough to make several games this year including one playoff game, so I got my basketball fix. Hopefully next year we will make it to the playoffs again. I will miss Phil Jackson if he does not come back next year.

I sure thought that the Lakers would make a run...especially being down 3-1. The Pistons just took the to the shed and laid an all out beat down on them. It is sad that Malone and Payton can not even buy a championship.

Malone's daughter got a ring before him... I think he will retire
Payton will just whine
