Or the Lakers shooting that poorly from the line. Ugh. Kobe: Hit your f-ing shots, dude.

big shots man, kobe/rest of team switched mojo at the half, he was bobbling the ball and even missed a pretty easy layup for him. i like how you can just about tell whether or not rashard's shot is going in before he even brings it above his waist. and the only thing i like about an orl win is it means stan van gundy is 'on' during the press conference afterwards, dude got jokes

Adam what are you doing on a b-ball thread? Are you a Lakers fan now?

i've watched a couple of the playoff games on justintv, with mixed results. some of the feeds freeze up, as though medusa had appeared on the jumbotron; others have been quite fine.

He also received an uncomfortable phone call last weekend from Reebok, with whom he has a shoe contract. Representatives of the company were not happy to see a picture of him from Game 1 in a Polish newspaper that prominently displayed his Michael Jordan/Nike logo tattoo on his lower right leg.
Reebok asked him either to wear higher socks Tuesday night to cover up the tattoo, or to apply makeup so it will not be noticed through the rest of the NBA Finals.
"They called and said I had to do something about it, but that ain't going to happen,'' Gortat said after Tuesday morning's workout.
"I've been wearing it 4-5 years now, and it helped me get to the NBA," said Gortat. "They didn't say anything about it when I signed the contract, so it's not going anywhere. I don't think they are paying me enough to take it off.''
Gortat would not say how much his Reebok contract is worth beyond the shoes he is provided to wear, but he said it was minimal compared to what the stars of the league receive.
"I've heard from other people that even other players, if they don't know my name, they know I'm the big white guy with the Jordan tattoo,'' he said. "I like that. Reebok will have to get used to that.''

well in game 2 they had the fake inbounds play, called timeout, and then ran that brilliant inbounds play for lee (which of course got screwed up, but anyways), so there could be something pretty crazy here, maybe.
