I don't think we'll win, but hope I'm wrong. Also kind of sucks that even if we do win, it'll have an asterisk on it because Bosh isn't playing.

at this point its my personal tradition and the love of the franchises past that I have been rooting for since I was a little kid.
I was 13 and I still remember the game vividly.
1991 vs GSW.
WCSF game 2.
Magic had 44 points and Chris Mullin lit us up for 40 points. He was 16 for 21 shooting. There was no stopping the guy. He was in the zone.
Magic crossed over Tim Hardaway. Then Hardaway crossed over Magic. These guys were both heated and going at each other. I havnt seen 2 players battle that intense in a long time. None of these current guys battle like that.
Lakers lost the game by 1 point but won the series. But Game 2 was the game for me. Heres a box score:

So thats why I am a fan who can accept the heat are a superior team in comparison to us this season.
Even if we win 2day its nothing. It means we can win a regular season game at home...nothing more. If we were to have HCA in the Finals vs. the Heat then it would suggest we can handle them at Staples. But barring a major trade, or multiple WC players having season ending injuries were not going to the finals and were damn not gonna have HCA vs Miami even if we did.
Now I get to ask you a question, WTF were you doing in 1991?

its one thing to accept the heat is a superior team and another to not believe your team is capable of beating the Heats. Don't put the heats up so high on a pedestol. Nobody who is any fans of any other teams doesn't realized that the Heat so far seems like the team to beat. I hate the heat with a passion. I hope the worst for the heat. i hope lebron and wade gets injured. Thats how much i hate the heat. But i am aware and accept that they are are a better team than us. However, it is not IMPOSSIBLE to beat the heat even in the playoffs. Don't make it sound like the Heat is an unbeatable team. I believe that the Lakers can beat the Heat. Believe as a fan is what you need to do to be a true fan. If you come on here and say "we going to get destroyed, or we have no chance of beating the heat" shows the level of a true fan you are. Is it herd to beat the heats? Ofcourse. But by beating the heat in the regular, it is a big thing. And it shows that we are capable of beating them. So if we meet them in the playoffs, we got a game we can guage and measure ourself.

I never said it was impossible. But I wouldnt bet my hard earned dollar on it.

[WhatUSaid]

rondo triple doubles and the Cs lose?

[J-H!zZl3]

I hope this doesn't go into OT. This always happens when the Lakers come on next. Lol.

[Saber]

oh [expletive] .. the Boston game is probably going to OT ..

[WhatUSaid]

pierce hits.

frak. hope this doesn't go to OT.

[alexthegreat]

Good game, but damn it PP. Every time the Lakers play the second game of a double header, the first game almost always ends up being close.

Ughhh - I knew it. Lin should have taken the last shot. I would rather the gay ass Celtics win and have our game start on time. Does anyone know if they're going to start our game temporarily on ESPN?

[bigvee]

Is the game gonna show on ESPN2 for now or something
