5th games when 1 team is up 3-1 usually go the blow out rout and not necessarily by the team trying to clinch. The Lakers could conceivably come out flat knowing the next 2 games are at home. On the other hand how much will the choke job by Van Gundy and the Magic affect the Orlando squad. My speculation is that Orlando might bolt out to a quick lead but wilter again. Kobe realizes that no player can score … Read More »
“Greivis Vasquez, Jr., Maryland: A number of teams contacted by ESPN.com said Vasquez is a strong second-round selection, but if he returned he could be a solid first-round pick in 2010.

Derek Fisher show signs of “Big Shot Bob Horry” with 2 monster 3s down the stretch as the Lakers struggled to overcome a terrific defensive performance from Dwight Howard. Superman finished the game with 21 rebounds and 9 blocked shots, but missed 2 crucial free throws , either one of which would have clinched the game. Again, Stan Van Gundy up by 3 with 11 seconds left decided not to foul and the Magic was burned by Derek’s 3 pointer. … Read More »
