More than bad calls, I'm worried about false calls. o_o

It's ironic the article mentioned the Nuggets getting the raw end of the deal on a bad call, possibly resulting in them not making the playoffs, and 2 years later..a bad call is made that virtually gave them the a playoff win over the Mavericks. IMO that call could have made a difference in that series. Instead of giving the Nuggets a 3-1 lead, it could have evened the series at 2-2. Ah well. I'm rambling like I usually do..so yeah..boo for bad officiating! XD

Lil Wayne sucks, IMO...Still nice Kobe highlights.

BTW, take a look at this guys. Kobe giving Ariza some advice.

Yeap, Lil wayne sucks.
I'll bump any song with Kobe Bryant as the title! XD

It's cool he sent Ariza that text. I still wish Ariza had stayed. He is on my top 10 list of growing talent. In a year or 2 he's gnna be putting up HUGE numbers. Count on it.

@choijinhyeok
Ariza will be a 20/5/2 guy next year. Even if Yao comes back, he is still gonna be the 2nd option. TMac is long gone...

I wouldn't say long gone..T Mac is still going to be their main scorer when he returns. Then again I could be saying this with some biased..I love TMac :T , and all the injuries that have been inflicted on him is just a shame.

OMFG..the Lakers are playing like BITCHES. Every. Single. One. of them INCLUDING Kobe. MY goodness..the Mavs are dropping it from far range, splitting the defense, grabbing the open looks outside, good passes inside..it's just domination. The only one playing decently right now is Bynum..and even that's borderline. You can't fight the calls, don't get upset about em.. as all ball players know (pro or otherwise) once you get pissed, you don't focus, and if you can't focus, you can't shoot. They really need to clear their heads; take it to the hoop, and close up those openings down in the post if they wanna win this.
GO LAKERS!
CLUTCH KOBE FOR THE 4th!

@Flo

If you can't watch this one, you can't call yourself a true Laker fan. I watch and stick with the Lakers, in winning and in losing and you know how the Lakers were during 2005 to 2007.

Damn, what a blowout. 14 points. I hope they bounce back next game.

You mean 04-07.
This game was horrible.
Basically, the Mavs isolated Kobe, giving him the double team as soon as he got the ball. That caused confusion in ball movement, because the Lakers do not have a stellar PG. Because of this, Kobe is their go-to guy (yeah big surprise), and once you shut him down their movement on the court slows down. Also, the defense was too tight..I know it sounds weird.
But I think it's a valid point, Lamar and Farmar in particular looked like they wanted the other team to take free throws..namely Dirk. The defense was just non-existent.
Now because this is the 2nd game into the season I can understand no everyone has transitioned themselves onto the court..however, this does not excuse the 18 or so turnovers, the open drives made by the Mavs, and the missed 2nd shot opportunities.
I'll say, if the Lakers continue to play like this (which they won't) repeat is out of their reach..and I will commit murder if I have to see another game like today.

The only highlights for this game was SHANNON BROWN with the BACK to BACK 3 Pointers! AND PICKING OFF KOBE MISSED SHOT FOR THE PUT DOWN! ELEVATIONN~!
Ahem..yeah sorry, there weren't many things to be happy about this game.

I myself am not much of a lakers fan. I prefer the Pistons Hornets and the Magic. But anyways I think that the Cavs are just not playing half as well as they should be. And this year I see Kevin Durant as a superstar player.

Nice choice of teams. All team I regard highly. :]
Maybe the Pistons not so much..if they retained that 04-05 glory with Chauncey Billups, Rip Hamilton, Tayshuan Prince, and both Wallaces I would LOVE them.
The Magic are a very underrated team currently. All the talk is being averted to the Cavs and Celtics on the East, no one is talking about them. Right now I would say they are gonna challenge the Celtics for the Eastern conference.
The Hornets are still not much of a team overall. Chris Paul is great..he may very well go on to being the BEST PG in the history of NBA, but his team is sub par at best. Having David West might lighten the strain on CP3 but he's still going to play obscene minutes this season. Oh and Emeka Okafur is good!
Yeap, and I agree about the Cavs, but I'm not a Cavs fan and I ABHOR the Celtics so I will be rooting for the Magic in the East.

P.S.
Yeah your prediction is not a great one because Kevin Durant has BEEN a superstar since his debut in 2007.
