From Kareems Twitter


Keys to the Game: Tonights KTG: Magic must defend Lakers pick & roll better


Here's my 2nd KTG: Get Dwight Howard involved offensively


3rd KTG: Magic need to push the ball. Zero fastbreak pts in Game 1


4th KTG: Lakers bigs take it to Dwight Again 5th KTG: Kobe getting teammates involved before taking over

All sound like legit points.

[thuggets]

lakers win by 10

[thatoneblackguy]

Magic will bring it but so will Lakers.

Lakers by 8.

[cotdt]

Even as a Laker fan, I hope for a closer game than last one.

[magi]

I think it'll be a close game, I hope Kobe has another huge performance and carries us. I think Drew, Odom or Pau will be POTG tonight tho.

[D'evil One]

Magic by 6!!!! GO MAGIC!

[GreatGreg]

Magic by 6.

[Laker4Lyfe]

Let's Go LAKERS!!!!!!!!!!!

[cotdt]

Which Laker will be the first to dunk on Howard in tonight's game? Predictions?

[mmsupra]

Wow my post got deleteD from here?

MAGIC BY 14

[Torious]

Which Laker will be the first to dunk on Howard in tonight's game? Predictions?

There can only be one answer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lw3rpDpvCcc&feature=fvw) to that! :D

[cotdt]

There can only be one answer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lw3rpDpvCcc&feature=fvw) to that! :D

ouch! that would be great to see...

[KubiliusF]

If Magic win by 25 i loose about 40 dollars. What odds are for this to happen

[Killer_Instinct]

Magic will play better. LA will proably start slow, then pick it up. LA by 11.

[BTrujillo]

Magic should play better... will at least definitely bring more energy... but as long as Kobe brings the "scowl" we'll be alright... lets go Lake Show! :banana:

[niko]

I really really want the magic to win. That said, the first game had some disturbing signs that pointed to the Lakers. I really am not sure the Magic have a chance here,

[Sriracha]

Putting my money on the Lakers. I wouldn't mind losing it though.

[Hiei]

Close game until the end, with lakers winning by 10.

[cotdt]

Putting my money on the Lakers. I wouldn't mind losing it though.

The spread is -7 in favor of the Lakers, but even at that, I think it's safe to bet on the Lakers.

[hotsizzle]

Lakers better not come into this feeling overconfident with how the media has been talking about them as of late. Orlando is a very resilient team that has bounced back strong on numerous occasions this postseason. Lookin forward to the game..should be a good one

[bagelred]

What a game!!!!!

Comeback victory by the Magic...can you believe Alston hit that 3 with :15 seconds left? :rockon:

Didn't expect a 1-1 tie.


You guys think Orlando can get 2 out of 3 at home? :confusedshrug:

[Younggrease]

what the hell is Wilbon doing with that hankerchef... is that whats hot right now? im I missing something. These dudes need to step their suit game up like Reg.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

Lets get this thing going.....LETS GO LAKERS

[bagelred]

:wtf:

What? Did you see the game?

[Allstar24]

Orlando will definitely play better today. But the Lakers look as focused as ever. As Kobe said...forget about game one. So I'm not worried about them losing focus, I feel good about this game.

[TryToBeUnbias]

well at least that makes one of us

[GUUS]

Dwight will look to get rid of his choker label, look for him to either go off for 40 or to get in early foul trouble and have a rubbish game

[stephanieg]

Your intro for the finals shouldn't prominently display Sasha V. Just sayin'.

[konex]

LMAO @ Kobe psyching himself up during the anthem :oldlol:

[TryToBeUnbias]

lol

[RocketGreatness]

Dwight will look to get rid of his choker label, look for him to either go off for 40 or to get in early foul trouble and have a rubbish game
He isn't capable of doing it against the real big men of the NBA. Only The Cavs big men a.k.a *******.

By the way Lakers have the worst intro ever.

[BankShot]

For the sake of us real basketball fans, I hope its at least close. Another blow out would not only kill ratings, but would drive away a lot of fans from watching the rest of the series.

C'mon Dwight assert yourself.

[BankShot]

Dwight will look to get rid of his choker label, look for him to either go off for 40 or to get in early foul trouble and have a rubbish game

Choker label? He had 40 in closing out the Cavs and taking the Magic to the finals. He had ONE bad finals game, which was his first game in the finals.

Choker?? STFU

[kobesabi]

Magic by 6.
lol hey you mispelled in your avatar

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

Lakers by 9....lets get this started already....

[BingBongBrother]

anyone found a good stream yet?

[TryToBeUnbias]

two weak ass calls

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

too much scrambling by lakers

[cotdt]

LOL @ Dwight's hand-through-the-rim "block"

[DuMa]

dwight got away with one there :lol

[MaxFly]

Great block by Dwight.... lol

[D'evil One]

too much scrambling by lakers

I was thinking the same thing. They are running around and it appears to be aimlessly.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

why the fcuk did Peitrus didnt pass the ball??

[Faberg]

Somebody toss me a link to the game, please?

I thought the game started at 9pm EST. http://muziksupremacy.com/forum/images/smilies/ugh.png

[D'evil One]

This game is scrappy. Its pissing me off.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

Nice Pass Pau

[BankShot]

Great pass by Pau

[DuMa]

fisher just fell down. flopping like a fish again

[DonDadda59]

What a sloppy, lackluster game so far. And why is the Staples crowd so lukewarm? Seems like a preseason game out there.

Pietrus is a very low IQ player btw, completely overrated defensively.

[TryToBeUnbias]

lakers playing some nice D both teams on a bit of a scoring drought :cheers:

[Hiei]

lol At least Fisher is still good at something.

[barne100]

fisher just fell down. flopping like a fish again

well if you get touched AT ALL during a fast break and fall down it is 99% of the time called a defensive foul.

[BankShot]

What a cheesy-a$$ Budweiser commercial

[IcanzIIravor]

Is that two fouls of Pietrus now? Orlando is hurting themselves by not taking advantage of the slow Laker start.

[amfirst]

Bynum needs to learn to let some shots go, if he gets beat, instead of fouling and getting himself out of the game.

[derman]

that was not a foul on fisher

[insidehoops]

It's 6-6, halfway through the first quarter. Slow start for both teams

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

PEITRUS is an ediot...and Fish is a SMART VETERAN

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

It's 6-6, halfway through the first quarter. Slow start for both teams


thanks genious....

[amfirst]

Well Fisher did what CP3 and Billups always do. Refs have to be consitant.

[DuMa]

well if you get touched AT ALL during a fast break and fall down it is 99% of the time called a defensive foul.
thats true but fish was already losing his balance way before pietrus accidently touched him. refs shouldve seen that and let it go. refs are being tight today

[D'evil One]

The magic need slow it up a bit and reset at the top. They are getting some ****ty calls against them.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

The magic need slow it up a bit and reset at the top. They are getting some ****ty calls against them.

no they are not...they are making stupid moves....

[DuMa]

magic should be playing turk and lewis at the 2-3 spot for most minutes. it gives him a better matchup against the laker length

[Kobe Jnr]

JJ

[red1]

Anyone have a nice link?

[Avaj]

oh wow 6 turnovers already, wow magic

[DonDadda59]

Dwight Howard is garbage down low. He can't score on Pau? :wtf:

[Kobe Jnr]

Anyone have a nice link?


http://www.justin.tv/footy_nba4

[DuMa]

ugly and scrappy

[TryToBeUnbias]

wtf this sh*t is sloppy:hammerhead:

[Avaj]

Gasol that was a stupid foul :banghead:

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

both teams shooting 30%...horrible to watch

[bigkingsfan]

Redick the Kobe stoppa.

[FashionIssues]

stupid foul...pau needs to let those go

[konex]

Ariza taking too many shots

[Gamba]

Dwight Howard is garbage down low. He can't score on Pau? :wtf:

Are you surprised? It's Dwight.

[Torious]

What a terrible game :lol

[HeyIt'sMe]

Dwight Howard is garbage down low. He can't score on Pau? :wtf:

Howard's played fine. He's making great decisions out of the double team and he's really active on the boards. His teammates need to hit shots.

[amfirst]

Lakers need to attack the basket. Magics are just fouling them when they do.

[crisoner]

Good dee by the Lakers so far....need to start turning up the offense though.

GO LAKES!!!!!!!!!!

[TryToBeUnbias]

jj is guarding kobe i dont understand why he didnt get the ball

[crisoner]

Go Lakes!!!!!!!!! Dee Up Get Boards!!!!!!!!!!

[Avaj]

nice job Odom

[Avaj]

Another stupid foul :banghead:

[RedBlackAttack]

I hope these teams wake up. This is brutal to watch. Orlando still consistently missing open jumpers.

[Avaj]

We need to get the rebounds :rant

[TryToBeUnbias]

gasol not boxing out

[D'evil One]

Lazy ass attempt by gasol

[Avaj]

nice fisher

[TryToBeUnbias]

wtf was that gasol

[Avaj]

Gasol your killing us :banghead:

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

why would howard do that? stupid foul

[KeylessEntry]

there is no way that was an offensive foul on Howard's screen....

[RedBlackAttack]

What is that call? That was not a moving screen.

[DuMa]

that was nelson's fault there.

[HeyIt'sMe]

These officials are HORRIBLE. Howard wasn't moving at all.

[insidehoops]

Dwight Howard and Derek Fisher sure collided a lot in the first quarter

End of one: 15-15

[Avaj]

lowest total in nba history in 1st quarter :(

[rs98762001]

The sound you just heard was that of every casual basketball fan in America turning off their televisions.

[amfirst]

Gasol had good looks, but missing everything.

[TryToBeUnbias]

lowest total in nba history in 1st quarter :(
:roll:

[Legend of Josh]

How many fouls will Delight get in the 2nd Quarter? At this rate, the final score will be 60 / 60 at the end of regulation.

Hedo who? ... where you at?

:confusedshrug:

[Mrofir]

Why did ABC put a D-league game on instead of the NBA finals?

[Allstar24]

That first quarter was brutal to sit through...didn't even feel like a finals game. Lakers need to start making some shots.

[RocketGreatness]

Lakers need to rebound better, Kobe playing poorly in the 1st quarter, but he did in the last game as well.

No offense on either side.

[RedBlackAttack]

that was nelson's fault there.
That was the official's fault... Not even close to a foul. If DHo ends up in foul trouble (which he almost always does), that could prove to be a big, horrible call.

[DonDadda59]

Dwight Howard may be a clown, but he has more personality than Kobe and Lebron combined. Got that whole Fresh Prince, non-threatening, cornball vibe about him :roll:

[Legend of Josh]

lowest total in nba history in 1st quarter :(

Baltimore Ravens VS Chicago Bears

:lol

[D'evil One]

lowest total in nba history in 1st quarter :(

... And both team's defense has been crap. Neither team is playing any kind of set offense. They are throwing the ball around like this was street ball.

[amfirst]

They need to attack the basket and get Howard in foul trouble.

[Mrofir]

Baltimore Ravens VS Chicago Bears

:lol


No, those teams had great defenses.. this is just pretty good defense and horrible offense

[Avaj]

10/33 for the Lakers in the first quarter :banghead:

[Indian guy]

All 5 qtrs of this series have been unwatchable so far. And is there anything more painful than seeing Orlando look this dreadful? How ****ing pathetic was Cleveland's defense on Dwight? He can't do sh!t so far. Orlando can't buy any decent looks on the perimeter either. LA's shooting 30% yet still find themselves in a tie game. Cleveland would be trailing by 15 right now.

[kobesabi]

Somebody toss me a link to the game, please?

I thought the game started at 9pm EST. http://muziksupremacy.com/forum/images/smilies/ugh.png
It's on local TV on channel ABC

[Avaj]

C'mon defense, man that was ridiculous

[bagelred]

Wow, nice slam by Lebron. And the foul!!!! Cavs up by 6.....



Wait....oh sorry....I'm in an alternate Universe.........

[D'evil One]

Wow two plays without fouls called.

[Hiei]

Why is the entire Laker team on floor the bench...

[Allstar24]

Odom's the only Laker playing well today.

[Avaj]

Man you scared me Odom, nice shot

[Avaj]

Wow nice D Odom!!!! :D

[Noob Saibot]

Reddick do you know how to dunk?

[DuMa]

keep posting up shard

[D'evil One]

That was on the board. :P

[dnyk1337]

kobe had 0 points after they put jj on him. coincidence? i think not. the best way to stop a shooter is put a shooter on him. jj knows kobes moves because hes a shooter himself.

jj=defensive player of the finals

[terp954]

bynum is a bum

[DuMa]

these refs are attrocious

[Maniak]

Hmmm, very sloppy game so far, reminds me of that Mercury/Stars WNBA game I watched yesterday.

[Avaj]

man this game is slower then a turtle :(

[qrich]

I thought this series would be exciting, but its damn boring. I'd rather see the Bobcats vs the Wolves or something.


Hmmm, very sloppy game so far, reminds me of that Mercury/Stars WNBA game I watched yesterday.

Sparks/Detroit whatevers > this.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

why are the magic setting hard screens like that.....they only have to blame themselves for this

[terp954]

kobe had 0 points after they put jj on him. coincidence? i think not. the best way to stop a shooter is put a shooter on him. jj knows kobes moves because hes a shooter himself.

jj=defensive player of the finals

yea right. If you left JJ on kobe for a game he would avg 50. Kiobe is much more then a shooter.

[DuMa]

Sparks/Detroit whatevers > this.

admitting you watch the WNBA = fail

[Legend of Josh]

JJ Redick is a perfect example of just how different the college level is compared to the pro level, especially when comparing the 1 & 2 positions. Occasionally a guy like CP3 will come along, but for the most part superstar-like players in the NCAA at the guard positions will have an entirely new mountain to climb once they play with the big boys.

[Torious]

these refs are attrocious

No kidding. Someone should take away their whistles and stick them up their collective arse. M'benga, get to it!

[Apples]

Why is Jameer Nelson listed as being 6'0'' on ESPN.com? A blind man could see that he's at least 3 inches shorter.

[amfirst]

kobe had 0 points after they put jj on him. coincidence? i think not. the best way to stop a shooter is put a shooter on him. jj knows kobes moves because hes a shooter himself.

jj=defensive player of the finals

hahah... u better hope Kobe doesn't hear that... He'll start droping 40 on him.

[D'evil One]

At this rate we are going to be lucky to see either team get to the 60s.

[TryToBeUnbias]

:sleeping

[Avaj]

nice job bynum, we need some kind of spark

[RedBlackAttack]

WAY too many whistles in this game on both ends. What are these officials trying to prove?

[Apples]

Someone go into options and adjust the shot sliders for this game.

[D'evil One]

Someone go into options and adjust the shot sliders for this game.

Bleep blork bleep gobbledegook.

[TryToBeUnbias]

why is sasha still shooting :banghead:

give the ball to L.O. or bynum

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

why the fcuk would sasha and farmar take those fcuking horrible shots...pathetic asrsholes

[Mrofir]

I think Kobe has decided not to play

[D'evil One]

WAY too many whistles in this game on both ends. What are these officials trying to prove?

Who the best blower is.

[Avaj]

C'mon LAKERS!!!!

[Legend of Josh]

The NBA Finals would be much more interesting if Game 2 was being played in Cleveland instead of LA.

:(

[Mrofir]

this game is entertaining in how terrible it is in every way.

[Hiei]

Why are Kobe, Pau, Ariza and Fisher all sitting out this whole quater...

[Avaj]

Nice Bynum!!

[TryToBeUnbias]

odom not contesting shots

[Mrofir]

Lewis has regained neural control of his body.. will any other players follow suit?

[qrich]

Nice lil post move by Bynum, and Shard keeps hitting.

Did Farmar airball that? :oldlol:

[Kevin_Garnett_5]

LOL @ Farmar.

[TryToBeUnbias]

wow farmar just wow

[Avaj]

They are going to just let Lewis loose :banghead: and now Bynum has 3 fouls :mad:

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

fcuker FARMAR>..FCUK U

[Legend of Josh]

Good point about Hedo... if he doesn't eventually show up the Magic are simply toast. Even if Delight and Lewis both have highly impressive performances, without something from Hedo Orlando just can't win.

It's that simple.

[FashionIssues]

wtf was that andrew?!

[D'evil One]

The NBA Finals would be much more interesting if Game 2 was being played in Cleveland instead of LA.

:(

ABC should have just had a rerun of game 6 of Celts vs Bulls.

[Kobe Jnr]

farmer :banghead: :banghead:

[cotdt]

Rashard is worth every penny of his $127 million, but Gasol needs to get back in the game and stop him.

[bagelred]

No one is reading this post....


Gobbledegook Gobbledegook blah blah blah......

[amfirst]

Lakers need to go into Kobe. Farmar shooting way too much.

[dazzer87]

bynum overrated!!!!!!!!!!! what a joke of a center.

[FlipJuicyChic]

Lewis is starting to hit 3's.. grr..

[beasted86]

Does anyone else notice how predictable Andrew Bynum's "post move" is (yes, singular) ?

He takes a hard dribble toward the basket... does a spin move, and takes a jump hook immediately, every single time. It's pretty much impossible to stop with how tall and long he is... but I just thought its pretty funny Laker homers actually think he has better footwork than Howard.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

PAU & Ariza 1/5 ...kobe 1/4...fish 1/3...


farmar 2/5/....this mo fo should sohuldnt be even taking 5 shots...

[konex]

Farmar is such a selfish moron

[Younggrease]

Apparently orlando's shooting % is contagious .

[Avaj]

Nice Ariza

Is Kobe taking the night off?

[Kevin_Garnett_5]

Ariza's jumper has improved tremendously.

[FlipJuicyChic]

awesome steal and 3!!!! woot! ;)

[qrich]

Fisher's foot seemed to be on the line, but nice answer by Shard.

Finally some offense

[IcanzIIravor]

Rashard is playing like a man.

[Avaj]

Can someone contain Lewis....geez :banghead:

[Maniak]

Good job on the boards by Dwight so far.

[D'evil One]

Redick needs to be guarding Kobe. Pietrus is too star struck to guard Kobe.

[IcanzIIravor]

That was an awful fast break by the Magic.

[qrich]

Orlando has a 3 on 1 fastbreak and they take a three from the corner? :oldlol:

[Avaj]

Gasol can't get nothing to drop :(

[beasted86]

its the set up move...there are more but he has to establish the go to moves first.

Makes sense... but just for this game so far, that seems like what he's doing every time down the floor.

[Younggrease]

This is just weird...I dont understand why the scoring is so low

[TryToBeUnbias]

Redick needs to be guarding Kobe. Pietrus is too star struck to guard Kobe.
Kobe doesn't even look like he wants score right now :confusedshrug:

[Noob Saibot]

omg, Orlando can't do a fast break for sh**. All Lewis had to do was dish it to Howard for a deuce. why Pietruis wasn't really open for 3.

[Kevin_Garnett_5]

Orlando can build a 5 star hotel with all these bricks...

[tastystaci]

:wtf: That's the second 2 on 1 that has led to 0 points. I think Stan needs to run some 2 on 1 drills next practice. This is high school stuff.

[Indian guy]

31%

That is what Orlando's shooting in this game. They're going to set the consecutive-game record for worst shooting in NBA Finals history.

[bagelred]

No one is reading this post.



Bleep blork bleep gobbledegook.

[RedBlackAttack]

omg, Orlando can't do a fast break for sh**. All Lewis had to do was dish it to Howard for a deuce. why Pietruis wasn't really open for 3.
That was one of the most poorly executed 3-on-1's I have ever seen. Literally... Just hand the ball to Howard and it is a thunderous dunk. WTF?

[DonDadda59]

Is Kobe taking the night off?

Looks like it. Shame, I was looking forward to seeing more of his underbite, err, I mean scowl :ohwell:

[amfirst]

They're doubling Kobe and he is doing the right plays by passing. Lakers need to hit their shots.

[Avaj]

What is up with Gasol????

[Eldrunko247]

This game is incredibly boring. zzzzzzz

[konex]

Can someone stay with Lewis?

[Avaj]

About time Kobe

[Hiei]

Orlando is failing.

PASS THE BALL TO LEWIS SCREw OPEN LAYUP.

[D'evil One]

About time Kobe

And that was only because Redick has his thumb up his @SS

[Legend of Josh]

Rashard is worth every penny of his $127 million, but Gasol needs to get back in the game and stop him.

IDK about all that... Lewis isn't exactly a superstar level player... and he's banking superstar level cash.

IMHO

[Avaj]

This game is Lewis vs Lakers :banghead:

[qrich]

Lewis answers another Laker three with one of his own.

If I'm Orlando, I go with a big unit, move Turk to the duece, Shard at the three and put in Battie/Gortat at the 4.

Edit: ****, another three by Shard.

[Legend of Josh]

Did I speak too soon?

:lol

[RedBlackAttack]

Shard! The Magic may be waking up.

[Noob Saibot]

howard hasnt even dunked at all in this series.

^that's even more amazing, and Dwight's supposed to be dominant, no wonder Shaq disses him all the time.

Rashard Lewis 18pts, only Orlando player making sh**.

[blackification]

haha rashard lewis

[IcanzIIravor]

They might want to stay glued to Lewis...

[Allstar24]

Why would you leave him open Lamar? So ****ing annoying.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

1 guy making shot..and they cant cover him WTF

[FlipJuicyChic]

Lewis its raining 3-pointers!!!!!! :mad:
Damn i didnt see that shot by Gasol..

[Mrofir]

ii love abcs coverage of this



game..

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

lakers are out rebounded by 25-17...thats not good...

[bagelred]

You know, Jeff and Stan have a third brother. He's actually a shoe salesman.


His name is Al Van Bundy.

[D'evil One]

This game is absolute garbage. Game 1 at least we saw the Kobe show. At least Shard is warming up.

[amfirst]

If Odom can stick to Lewis, than Lakers can win. Dude is wide open and is their best shooter.

[Avaj]

5 pt ahead going into the half

Man this game has got to pick up in 2nd half

[Legend of Josh]

Hedo... where you at mang?!

:confusedshrug:

At this rate, Orlando 70, LA 80 at the end of regulation.

[TryToBeUnbias]

lol if we could of kept a man on lewis then this lead might be at 10

[mongePR(kb24)]

Lewis its raining 3-pointers!!!!!! :mad:
Damn i didnt see that shot by Gasol..

only 19,995 persons saw it.

[qrich]

Magic down by 5 at the half and they have to be grateful. Shooting a horrendous 32.4% from the field and 11 turnovers on the road.

Hell, without Shards 8-12 shooting, Orlando is 4-25 from the field and 1-9 from three :oldlol:

[Faberg]

Abc coverage <

Lewis its raining 3-pointers!!!!!! :mad:

bynum with 0 rbs in 10mins

[RedBlackAttack]

Turkoglu, Alston, Pietrus, Nelson, Gortat, and Redick are a combined 1-19... Yes.... You read that correctly... 1-19 from the field. :eek:

[Meticode]

Odom is just falling asleep at Rashard.

if Rashad Lewis was off this game
this would've been a blow out by now

Lakers need to adjust to Rashard. Dude is the only one punishing them.

Turkoglu, Alston, Pietrus, Nelson, Gortat, and Redick are a combined 1-19... Yes.... You read that correctly... 1-19 from the field. :eek:

If it weren't for the LakeShow playing sloppy as well (not to the same extent, still sloppy) and Lewis' clinic it'd be more like 20 / 40 at the half.

Kobe has 6 pts at half :mad: :rant :banghead:

Damn I miss those days.

Yeah, that theme music would get my junk hard.

^5 of those players need to hit some shots if they even stand a chance against LA.

Ya think?!?!?!

On the flip side, if Turkoglu, Alston, Pietrus, Nelson, Gortat, and Redick weren't a combined 1-19, it may be a blowout the other way. This is pathetic.

The Lakers defense is good, but the Magic are missing A LOT of open shots.

Turkoglu... I hate this clown..... he's so overrated as a "point-forward" to me
and that's exactly why you don't play more JJ.....

[Legend of Josh]

Slow down Lewis, Lakers win by 20+ points, easily. I'm not thinking Orlando can even remotely turn this thing around going back to Orlando down 0-2 in the series.
