I was more bringing it up as an example of when we didnt get the calls, at all, and while its annoying, im in no way blaming the series loss on them.


Again, I'm saying that Lakers/Celtics series are a special case, more than anything. Not going to get into that here, as I don't have a dog in that particular fight (hell, if anything, I'm more likely to pull for y'all, since you're Western).

I am a full believer in the thought that if you don't want to get fricked, don't put yourself in that scenario.


This is where I disagree. Yeah, teams blow leads. I don't think that that's just for them to get fricked over because of it. Karmic? Eh, maybe. Playing with fire? Mos def, especially against an iconic franchise like LA. But not just.

is it just? maybe not. but I have no sympathy. just like id have no sympathy if/when it happens to us. you don't want to get screwed over by the refs? don't let it happen in the first place. and this has nothing to do with the lakers situation, that's my general opinion on anything related to sports and officiating. it may suck, but you played with fire and you put yourself in that scenario

Yeah, I get where you're coming from, but I also don't think it's fair to shrug your shoulders at a bad call just because a team squadered a lead. Game should be called fairly regardless of situation. Yeah, that's idealistic and won't always happen, but that's what I'll always hold to.

ETA: That's 10 pages. Think the MSB's seen enough?

oh I agree. where im coming from is that I don't have any sympathy for the team if they lose that way. yea it sucks and its not just, but you have no one to blame but yourselves. you know the refs are human and know that they can frick up. it doesn't mean its ok for the call to be missed, but I will never put a game on the officials fricking up a call whether or not it benefits my team. if we get the shite end of the stick, it sucks, but we shouldn't have put ourselves in that scenario

I am a Lakers fan, season ticket holder for 3 years in the early 2000s, and I will admit they get all of the calls. Especially against the Kings back then!

yea we get calls, ive said that so many times in this thread. im only responding to the notion that the only reason we ever won was because we got those calls. and that has been said in this thread by an Oregon poster and another said the only reason why we beat the kings in 02 was because of those calls and that's just ridiculous

kind of. im putting more of the blame on the team itself, and you put more of the blame on the official who makes the wrong call. that's my take

99 times out of 100 we won because we were better but the ONLY reason we beat the Kings that year was because we got those calls. If you don't believe me go back and watch. I was there and it was fixed!

ETA: For game 6

was game 6 shady? yea no doubt. but are you really going to say the kings should have won when the blew a 24 pt lead in game 4 and then blew a game on their home floor?

Well no shite but to be fair to them they shouldn't have had to play a game 7. Look I am glad they lost because it was another title for us but they really did outplay us in the WCF.
