it's amazing how raw the dude is...he's like a high school kid, he's got 0 basketball IQ. just going straight up and keeping the ball high will solve 75% of his offensive problems

Don't see it. It was a close game and a few amazing shots by the Lakers basically won it. Howard missing both foul shots might count as a choke if he was an 85% foul shooter, but for him it's kind of par for the course. And high turnovers and sporadic outside shooting are pretty common for the Magic too.
Never mind Howard’s free throws. Nelson's defense on Fisher (at the end of reg time) was suicidal. Might have made sense if they were up by four or more, not by three. Van Gundy's devotion to Nelson was suicidal. Lewis just never rose to the occasion. These aren’t just par-for-the-course shooting percentage matters, but have to do with mindset, determination, and decision-making when it matters most, such as when you’re up 5 with 40 seconds to go and a chance to tie the series.

remember when fish was all like 'hup, here comes the ball.." and ariza said 'yup' and fish says 'nothing goin on in the backcourt let me see what jameer talkin bout' and then thought a minute 'man i'm the worst player on the court anyways i feel like bustin and anyway it cant get no worst for the worst player think of it that way' and jameer was like 'shit, i wouuld but i'm a baller like that lol you got kobe to deal with too dont miss lol' and fish was like 'whatever it ain't like that...you know what? fuck it watch him fuck around missing and shit i can miss too that nigga don't run me---' and jameer said '5 seconds dog, i dont want u to get in trouble' and then fish and then UHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

After it was over, my perspective was Orlando didn't deserve the win. They aren't up to the mark to be champions. Series is clearly over now. Kobe can get his next ring implanted in his penis soon.

the shitty free throw percentage and ridiculous turnover differential sorta presaged a Magic loss

Nelson got caught double-teaming Kobe Bryant, who kicked the ball to Fisher, and as Kobe made the pass he nailed Nelson in the eye with a hard elbow. Nelson complained to a referee but was rebuffed.
"I doubt that [Kobe] did it on purpose,'' Nelson said. "My ears are ringing right now. But the ref's not going to call that."
Alston said that wasn't the only case of superstar treatment afforded Bryant.
"There were times he was out there cursing the refs out and they weren't calling technical fouls," Alston said of Kobe. "I would get ejected [for that], but they won't eject Kobe."

sorry dude! i just don't buy the idea that the lakers are a loving cohesive team celebrating together after a slogging through war together - most everything that kobe says to me rings hollow. i'm sure they are all proud of each other and happy for each other and stuff but i just rolled my damn eyes at the celebration is all. not taking anything away from their winning it or something just that i don't buy them \(o_O)/
