    Kobe is a little bitch who complains and cries when he doesn't get his way.

    Not a Lakers fan, but Odom is from my neck of the woods Queens, so I root for the local guys. Alston is also from my area, so if they make it, I'll root for a good series.

    I haven't watched much of the series because it starts at 10am here in Australia, but Magic would have to make it. surely they can't lose from being 3-1 down.

    My mate put $50 on the cavs before the first game this season had been played. I think they were paying $20 something. So not a bad bet, so I hope the Cavs win for his sake.

    Ummm have you watched the playoffs at all? He always has the dramatic looks on his face and is always complaining to the refs about something. And he gets the ''Jordan'' calls all the time.

    Did you watch the Spike Lee documentary where he talks about the relationship between players and refs? It was just one game, but he talked about how hard they have it and he just tries to help them out because he realizes they can't see everything. Obviously you're going to call that BS. And I don't believe him 100% either, but... wait... I'm not sure where I was going with this. Something about most players argue calls. You probably don't notice it when he doesn't argue a call and only when he does.

    You talking to me? Yea but when he argues calls and it doesn't go his way. I swear sometimes it looks like he is gonna cry. lol

    Another thing the dam cameras are always on him. Well he does play for LA and that town knows how to act. So Kobe is all set for when he retires. I'm sure Jack will help him get into the movies. lol

    EVERYBODY in the NBA whines about every call.

    I don't like Kobe but he's just b/c he's really cocky

    I f'in hate Dwight Howard. That fuckin smirk he gets on his face after every play. and A)he nicknamed himself, B)he stole Shaq's nickname. I hate how the NBA plays him up and love how it's pretty clear in these playoffs that he's actually about the 4th best player on his team. I'm not sayin he isn't a stud in his own right, but he has no offensive game

    CAVSSSSSSSSSSS

    I'm not jumping on the Cavs wagon or the LBJ wagon...but...I really just wanna see LeBron win, he deserves it so much, every game its LBJ vs 5...maybe Mo helps out but thats it.

    As for the Lakers, I can't STAND Kobe...amazing player but his personality and attitude is such a turn off. That being said I like watching Gasol play.

    Haha...that's Fanch who enjoys the Natty. I just champion it as the king of shitty beers. :D

    Seriously, if you think Kobe is the only one that gets preferential treatment by the refs, you need to watch more basketball. Just watch some of the highlights from the 2006 NBA Finals where the Mavs would just look at Wade's shadow and a foul would be called.
