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.

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.

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

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?
Posted on 4/3/14 at 2:28 am to WestCoastAg
IDK...I am just saying that series was 100% fixed after witnessing game 6. There is no denying that and I LOVE the Lakers. So so much!!!

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.
