I agree Game 2 was questionable reffing no doubt, I've never seen anything like Game 6 of the Lakers-Sacramento series though. 27-10 is one thing, 27 free throws for the Lakers in one quarter is a whole different thing. I just sat there like is this really happening?

Taking the other side of it, Donaghy could have intentionally identified that game knowing how controversial that game was and therefore knowing that some would buy into it. Who knows? But I remember thinking either the refs are incompetent or corrupt, its one of the two. And can you really be that incompetent?

That was one of the worst reffed games in NBA history in Sacramento they still think refs screwed them so I can't wait to see the columnist at the Bee just explode in their pants tomorrow. It's funny how much media attention Spygate got which was entirely overblown compared to this.

Celtics offense is just about as stagnant as an offense could be right now but their D has kept them in it. Lakers need to keep them honest and stretch them out to the perimeter while they have this lead.

Lakers got really lucky tonight...

This is all Boston, IMO.

I'm thinking the same thing, in some ways I'm more convinced that Boston will win the series after that loss than after the two opening wins, if that makes any sense. They went to L.A. to play a team that was absolutely desperate for a win, Pierce and Garnett were horrible and they still almost won.

I owe you some rep, I have to spread some around though.

I thought the Lakers played good first quarter playing aggressively although i think Bryant was a bit selfish at times. Then they seemed to lose to plot and really and truthfully it was more to do with Celtics playing poor than Lakers playing good, and Celtics could have easily won. I don't think Celtics will be too disappointed i mean they played poor and still almost won, Im still hoping the Lakers win but they need to step it up big time.

good call.. at the beginning of that game, the commentators said something like "the celtics made it through the outburst of the Lakers" when really the Celtics just played so terrible.. they should've been winning early.. the Lakers turned the ball over SO many times in the first quarter, the Celt's just couldn't capitalize..
