Lakers V.S. Pacers

[DeSiMuNdA]

4th game of the N.B.A. finals, and the first playoff game to go into OT...

what a game...LA won by 2 points (final score L.A. 120, Indiana 118)

Shaq got fouled out in OT...kobe had a great comeback with 28 points (still having problems with his ankle though)...the last 6 seconds were nerve wrecking when fox fouled one of indians players right b4 the timeout play, so indiana got a free-throw and the ball after that, with the whole 6 seconds...

alas reggie missed the 3 pointer (which would've tiped the scales in indiana's favour) trying to beat the buzzer...his 2nd 3 point miss of the night

what a game

game 5 on friday promises to be even more exciting now, since the pacers have to win it to survive...

pacers will kick Lakers buttocks and take the series back to LA. And then some...

Kobe's comeback made a huge differece. He's fast!

Sorry guys, there is no way that the Pacers can beat the Lakers.

Reggie Miller tried to do the same thing he did 2 years ago, when he went for the 3 pointer at the end.

Its not the first playoff game to go into OT. Just to correct that info for you.

Its the first overtime in an NBA Finals since Game 1 of the Chicago-Utah series in 1998.

Just clearing up some records.

[mundyaa]

tesion was too much for dehatan to handlee. she was later seen burning cars and looting stores.

[DeSiMuNdA]

eheh...oh well...there's alwayz next season to look forward 2

[Elmo with headphones]

heheh munda, not to take anything away, I predicted not only a game 6 lakers win but an Indiana-L.A Final Showdown way back in April (refer my 'NBA Playoffs' post).

Anyway, Great win for the lakers, but personally I was a bit disheartened to see such a courageous effort by Miller & Co. go down. LA had a lot of talent at their disposal to begin with, but Indiana made the most of their troops in highly determined fashion.
