I have to give it to Hassell for doing a great job on Kobe... But in my opinion, Fisher is a real 4th quarter threat for this series... Just look at how he did in the final 20 secs or so pulling the Lakers within 2.

I think may laban pa lakers at under 1 min but they just gave up and only fisher bothered trying.

agree...they lost momentum sa 3-point play ni hoiberg..pero si fisher di pa bumigay...siguro iniisip nya yung 0.4sec nga naipanalo nya yung 60sec pa. :D

additional lang: di kaya sinadya ng lakers yung pagkatalo just to push game 6 in staples?

eh di kikita pa sila sa staples... imagine kung gaano kadami yung crowd...:D

I guess not. They really tried to win it. Alam mo naman ang mga bata natin, kelangan ganahan muna. They just started their run too late i guess.

actually, napapansin ko nga if they think they can beat their opponents...magpapalamang sila then late sila maghahabol...

here's steve kerr's overall analysist:

Los Angeles' defense, which wasn't around much during the regular season, is the key. Will the Lakers focus, compete and play together, as the Lakers did the final four games of the San Antonio series? Or will they go back to their lazy "we'll get 'em tomorrow" attitude?

I believe they'll show their vulnerability at some point in this series, and the amazing Garnett will take advantage. Still, the Lakers have proved that they will rise to the occasion when necessary.
Lakers win in six games.

somehow, i expect a different LA team to show up tomorrow. Unless MIN plays exceptionally well, they just might clinch it....

not a forecast, just an opinion.
