Nothing, man. I just took his challenge of re-watching the 4th quarter and looking at all the calls.

It was a fun series, man. Loved watching every game and I'm glad you guys won cuz **** the Kings. It's just I don't understand why some people can't see that there were several bad calls that went the Lakers way. You guys show revel in it.

That's exactly how I would love to see the Clippers win every post season game. Rustle as many jimmies as possible.
 
erupt with the rebuttal

Everyone complains about Kobe's elbow on Bibby, yet forget that Bibby was holding Kobe the whole time. But hey, it's the Lakers. People gotta find some way to hate.
 
At least he took the time and watched, but he added 2 offensive foul calls that were not a part of the free throw disparity everyone cries about.

He also left out the two non calls I mentioned, one on Divac, and the last one under a minute on Shaq's last basket.

And like I said, the Kings were arguing their hearts out over Peja stepping out of bounds, from NINETY feet away. They were already crying and whining before anything had happened.

And look at how Erupt puts everything, Divac knew this was happening, Bibby knew they weren't gonna get this, etc etc. :lol:

They also KNEW they were a bunch of chokers. And I also know that they were getting all the free throws/ffoul calls for 5 and 3 quarters of the series. We got the "benefit" of a single quarter, and yet we're some sort of conspiracy theory for the ages. :lol:


All in all, he really only disagreed with me on 2 or so calls. I said there were 2 so so calls, and one that could go either way, and he said pretty much the same. Only 1-2 other calls he completely disagrees with me about, and that's fine.
 
You documented like 10 plays out of an entire 7 game series and that somehow proves everything was good?

I bet you think Bibby fouling Kobe's elbow with his nose was a great call too
"Delaney: I see Mike Bibby defending Kobe Bryant, and I see his arm wrapped around his waist, and to me it’s a hold. I’m processing in my mind to start to call that foul, and if I call it, it’s an away-from-the-play foul, because it’s like a foul off the ball. If a foul takes place prior to the ball being released during an inbound pass, it’s deemed to be an away-from-the-play foul, which would mean one shot and possession. So anybody on the floor could shoot the free throw for the Lakers, and then the Lakers would retain possession at the point of interruption.

Bernhardt: You could almost have a blocking call before what looks like an elbow to the face.

Delaney: While I’m processing that, then Kobe is trying to break free, comes up, the ball is inbounded and then a foul is taken. And it becomes [clear] to me that somehow Mike got hit in the face, and obviously it was when Kobe was pulling his arms up. All that in microseconds.

Bernhardt: It was really just [Kobe] trying to step through there after the defensive player stepped up into him. That was a tough play. Period. You look at it and one side, you have one opinion. Another side, you have another opinion.

Delaney: I’ve seen elbows thrown; to me that was not a thrown elbow. But if I had my perfect game, if I could sit down, break down the play, and have that perfect ballgame, I would’ve called the away-from-the-play foul, which means the Lakers would’ve shot one and retained possession, and called a technical on Kobe. Sacramento shoots one technical foul, L.A. does the same, and they inbound the ball from the same spot."

Excerpt from The "All the King's Men" article!on Grantland. Great read.

There you have it. Bibby would not have been fouled had he not held Kobe. If everything was called in real time, Lakers would have gotten a free throw AND possession.
 



Offensive wunderkind, dude really has it all.


Elite shooter, elite handle and all the finishing moves in the book with both hands.



Just hope he isn't made of glass, I want a 7 game series of Curry v Kyrie.
 
My Mother swears Russell West married a beard.

The tele can be reporting random news and mention Westbrook, and I listen for my Mother in the back, for the, "he likes men" from my Mother. She's on him for some reason, I'm like chill Momma, chill

Sometimes people can get a vibe from somebody.

Best game of the year by far.

Also nothing in that video makes sense. 57 points and he maybe had one easy field goal there. Everything was off the dribble 3s, tough contested layups in traffic. Kyrie man :smh: :smh:

If she's lying, she's dying, let her tell it.

She Knows. And nobody can tell her different. 

edit and sidenote: It's cool to see those 2 Sac fans are on the same team again. No way this thread works the same if rck isn't rooting with the homie Nelson. **** Lakers, they got Morton
