I shouldnt say everyone, just a lot of people were saying sweep and 4-1 after game 1 and writing off boston completely in the series. Of course im not saying boston is guaranteed to win but they werent out of the series after game 1 even though a lot of people were saying that.. So many people jump ship at the first sign of trouble.

The lakers wont shut down after game 2 just like boston didnt after game 1, these two teams are going to battle.

I still think Boston doesnt have a chance in this series to be completely honest. Don't call bullshit fouls on kobe and overturn the call where garnett hit the ball out of bounds and lakers win this game. Lakers win 2 in boston. If you are given points in game 3 nail the lakers because they will win the game. This is coming from someone not betting on the games.

Wierd thing about this game is Ray had 30 pts (most in 1st half)

Rondo had 19 but who else stepped up for Boston for them to get 100 pts and win this game.

Bynum clearly played his best game of the post season and Gasol played well too.....Bynum/Gasol/Kobe all over 20 pts

And Lakers shot 15 more free throws...which really was 20+ b/c LA intentionall fouled down the stretch.

How did Boston get this done?    Team offense?

Kobe getting in foul trouble was huge, but dont you think there were some bs fouls on boston too?  I saw at least 2 blocks (pierce on artest) and Davis on Bynum that were ridiculously clean and they were called for fouls.... Lakers went to the line a million times at one point i think it was Lakers 37 to under 14 over the celts.

Anyone who TURELY knows basetball knows Boston is in striaght trouble. Think about it, Ray had one of the best games in the HISTORY of the Nba finals. Kobe fouls were straight bullshit. Not only did his minutes go way down, he was handcuffed on defense. All this and the Lakers were still in with 1 minute to go.

i told my buddies that Lakers are done on Sunday night when the refs call quick 4 fouls in early 3rd quarter on Kobe, that same sh*t happened to Ray Allen in Game 1. You take out the key player by calling early 3-4 fouls and that team are done. i hate nba.

ok everyone who says Boston is in trouble and the Fakers are still going to manhandle the Celtics are you smoking crack?! ha Allen had a incredible game and Garnett and the entire front court was in foul trouble and Pierce played poorly, Boston doesn't need the effort they got from Allen tonight to win they just need everybody to give in 20 pt kind of nights and they easily win. That and they need everyone playing good team defense.

I agree, still too early to predict a champion.... both teams have weaknesses the other side has exposed.

Stern wants it to be a series...clear by the way the officiating swung to boston's favor in game 2...if they play that game in the street the lakers win by 20. nba should make their influence a little less obvious...its still a business but they're turning into the WWE with they way they control outcomes.
