I know there's a few NBA fans around here so thought i'd do a playoff final thread where we can talk about the finals or just the beautiful game of basketball itself.
So we have the mighty, unbeatable, super talented Los Angeles Lakers vs the...... ahem ...... Detroit Pistons.
The quartet of Kobe, big diesel, the glove and the mailman vs the defensive powerhouse of Ben Wallace and the jailbait of Rasheed Wallace with Richie Hamilton starting to show up when it matters at the final dance.
On paper the Lakers should walk this series easy and with the first 2 games in LA if we win both of those than that should happen. Detroit will probably be looking to snatch a win in those games to take back to Detroit for the 3 home game stretch, which if they manage to win one of the first two games could make the series a little more tricky for the Lakers then it should be.
Of course the west could just smash the east as they've done for many years now, which i of course will hope happens :-D

Tonight's game is crucial, I agree if Lakers win, it will be very interesting. A Best of three series. However I do feel if Detroit win it will be too much. 3 sudden death mst win games for the Lakers, if they do that then of course they deserve the win.
I hope not hopefully it'll go to 2-2, even if Detroit win the next one the Lakers can win the next 3 after that and win the Series 4-3.
Good result in Game 3, hopefully Detroit can pretty much wrap the tie up in game 4
Watched a bit of the highlights tonight but it felt so much more brilliant last night, what a brilliant match saving 3 pointer from Kobe!
Thanks, are you getting NBA Street 3?
Do you know when its coming out?

Well we're back even now and i forgive Kobe for his horror show in game 1 after knocking down the trey with 2.1 seconds left to force the game into overtime where we beat them 99-91. Shaq still as dominate as ever with 29 points (MVP material once again)
Now onto Detroit for 3 games, don't really agree with this playoff format but i suppose as they're on 2 sepearate sides of America they can't keep jetting back and forth. As long as we can win at least 1 of those games, we'll be in a good position to take it back to Staples

Go into overtime, then if there's still no winner double overtime then if there's still no winner triple overtime etc etc

Kobe just didn't get it done on Defence, i don't care if Kobe wants to have his little matchup with Rip Hamilton from high school, Hamilton killed him everytime Kobe guarded him. Put George on him and put Kobe on someone else otherwise he's going to get into foul trouble very early on
