Yeah, what a joke. That whole MVP thing, all defensive team, three championships, 81 points in a game, 10+ straight of 40 or more points..etc..etc..etc. What a piece of shit.

The Lakers will win the next 3 for the simple reason that the Lakers and Kobe in particular will get more calls in LA. The reason the home court is such an advantage in the NBA is the refs let the fans influence their decisions. Being originally from Portland and a huge Blazer fan I'm not a Kobe supporter by any means but he got absolutely raped in Boston. At the end of three last night the free throw attempts were 26-4. Announcers play the company line and claim its all about Boston being aggressive. Bullshit. Its about Paul Pierce and KG getting the ticky tacky calls at home and Kobe driving the lane and getting held on every possession but the officials swallowing their whistles.

It was like that in the LA/Utah series. Kobe didnt shoot many free throws in Utah, but in LA it was a different story. Kobe will shoot 15-25 free throws a game in LA. The fans will be in it and then for the next week all Celtic fans will be bitching that Paul Pierce and KG are getting screwed on calls (which they will be). I'm not even including Ray Allen because he doesnt even show up in big games so he probably wont be a factor.

Then it will be back to Boston for game 6 and the Celtics will get the calls and Kobe will get his 4-10 FT's again. But it's all about his agressiveness. lol Like the MVP of the league all of a sudden loses his aggressiveness in the NBA finals because he is wearing his purple jersey. It's a joke.

Also, not to be a conspiracy theorist but the rating are up 40% over last year, you think the NBA wants this series over in 4 or 5. NO WAY!! The Lakers are tough at home, everyone knows this, the league knows this, the refs know this. If Boston didnt win both at home this one would be over in 4 or 5. The league cant have that. They need to milk the tit while they can. This one is going 7. Just saying.
