Lakers +105 to win the series.

Everytime you count The Lakers out they find a way to win. Down 0-2 to The spurs and trailing game 3 with 4/10ths and win. Down to the KiIngs a few years ago they came back and won. Game 2 against The pistons down 6 with 40 seconds. Somehow. someway they will find a way to win. Plus they're only down 2-1 in the series.

maverick2112 are you forgetting the Lakers has a 16 pt lead in that game @ SA then Spurs came back. THe Lakers were tied up with Spurs, and Duncan made a 15-20fot BANK shot. Let me say it again, Duncan made a BANK shot to give the Spurs the lead. (not lucky?) That was with couple min. left in game, crucual basket. Then after Kobe makes go ahead shot with 15-20sec left in game (nice clean shot) Duncan once again makes a 20ft fade away shot with SHAQ of all people right smack in his face. I think Duncan even was quoted saying it was lucky and that he could hardly even see the rim. Fisher shot was with .4 sec but if you watched it, it was clean shot. He did not just chuck the ball up. Fisher is much more qualified player to make fade away than Duncan and Fisher shot was a lot closer to basket than Duncans.

Shaq had the best quote "One lucky shot deserves another"

I am not forgetting anything I watched the whole game.........I also remember Tony Parker missing a wide open jumper with about 40 seconds left and the Spurs up by 1 that rattled in and then out..(would have given the Spurs a 3 pt lead with like 35 seconds left) .......All I said and I will say it again........without Fishers shot the Lakers would be home......IMO......

The biggest question is - how many times can they count on this "luck/good fortune" to last. I have to think that they are running a little low on the Luck-o-meter right now. . . . . Here's a thought - maybe they should just play good basketball/defense for an entire game/series - maybe that "superior talent" thing will shine though afterall.

trump tight I agree with you. That is exactly what Lakers need to happen. The Lakers will try and turn it on for game 4, but will it make a difference? I hope so. Although I think Detroit has more talent than Lakers. Especially if you factor in the injuries.

maverick2112 I think Kobe had missed 5 shots all in last 3 min. of game prior to making his go ahead shot at end of game. Spurs essentially had 2 lucky shots in that game while Lakers 1. Just my opinion.

Just my opinion.

And after some of your posts of the Laker fiasco............everyone is laughing at your opinion
