Pacers win thanks to Reggie hitting a 3 to break the tie 30 seconds left, then hits a free throw to put it beyond 3 with 6.6 seconds left on the clock. Final Score 78-74

Kamikaze - Twista

You do realise that Cassell is carrying injuries into tonight(sure he played fantastascally in Game 7, but has he had enough rest to have another big game?)?I see the Lakers using Payton/Fisher to run him down, he may score 20, but I see Payton and Fisher causing all sorts of things ontop of a slower, weaker Cassell than normal. Sprewell won't stop Kobe, either.Nobody can stop Kobe right now, he's going to be the key, but Wally throughs a cog into the mechanics, and shifts things up, honestly, I feel he's the X-Factor that the T-Wolves'll need to get a few games. Malone will step his D up too, he took apart Duncan in the last series, and well, this T-Wolves team, their weakened all round, The Lakers have a week off, while the T-Wolves played a game just a few days ago, giving the Lakers a chance to rest up, and prepare for the T-Wolves, where as The Wolves woulda had one, maybe pushing two training runs. My new pediction is Lakers in 5, 6 at the most.I really don't think this is going to game 7. EDIT - Lakers win 97-88, Cassell only played 32 mins what a difference not having Troy Hudson makes, as with him there, this series could be completely different.Hack-A-Shaq definately isn't workin lately, with Shaq going 9-11 from the FT.And Malone defiantely contained Garnett, only letting him get 16-10 as Malone got 17-11 Lakers in 4, I believe, now.

Gee, Jason Kidd was a huge factor in that game, wasn't he...first game 7 in his career, he can't even put up 1 damn point. Lakers win in 6, Indy wins in 7, or Pistons in 7, I can't decide which will win, at the moment, after Game 1, I'll know for sure, or should know. Because the Lakers have had a rest, I see them taking a game on the road.Kings did it in Game 1, I see Lakers doing the same. Lakers will win the NBA Finals in 6, Finals MVP goes to Kobe, and a ring finally is put on the Glove.Unless, something goes terribly wrong, which I doubt.

Why did C-Webb get the final shot?That's just idiotic. T'Wolves don't stand a shot against the Lakers, but, Pistons/Indy in the East, if the Pistons make the Finals, I guess we'll really see if Defense wins Championships, but I highly doubt it.

VII is the best, but I enjoyed IX much more, and X was pretty good, purely because the graphics for it were great, and it seemed like more of a challenge to me.

Kings won't stand a shot against the Lakers. And lets face it, Shaq hasn't been scoring all that much in the Spurs series because the Lakers have come together as a team, realising that if they didn't take atleast 3 straight wins, the whole point of picking up Malone and Payton would be pointless.And a team structure for the Lakers, is what's going to take out the Kings. And, Shaq or Kobe didn't play in three of those 4 games in the series, and Kobe is in devastating form. Now that the Heat are gone, I hope the Pistons beat Indy, but not bothered if Indy does somehow win the series against the Pistons. Fact is, The Lake Show is back on air, and not coming off until the NBA Finals is competed, and The Glove, and Malone get their rings.

Wade from the Heat, everyone's been going on about how Melo and LeBron are so good, but have forgotten about him, and he's a great player, and took the Heat to Six games witht he Pacers after everyone called Sweep.

Bob Sapp is an overrated, useless, piece of crap, he's made money and got K-1 more known, but fluke victories over Hoost suddenly makes him a great kickboxer?Fuck no.Same with CroCop, you hit his jaw a few times, and attack him before he attacks you, and you've got him. Tim Thomas, and Vin Baker, in my POV are overrated, too. And LeBron is even more now that he's on the Olympic Side, they're hyping him as the saviour of World Basketball now, atleast from my view, on the Cav's latest update on their site.I doubt he'd get too much time either, with Stabury, J-Kidd, T-Mac, and whoever else playing guard.Even if he does he get time, I doubt he'll be much of a factor, unless he wants to be a ball hog, which is the only way I see him getting the ball, with the team they're taking. Jonny Wilkinson is also overrated, he only did well because he had a great forward pack, which took 6, 7 years to build up.

I hate that "Wot Do You Call It" song from Wiley, that is the one, right? Rascal however is the man, his voice fucking rules."Jus A Rascal" is the best track I've heard so far, but I've only heard like, 4 off the album.

Who cares about the Pistons, the playoffs are over, just give Malone and Payton their rings already. I wouldn't be at all surprized if Indiana-Miami goes to 7, they are a force at home, and that would be great, just for the Heat, who have never really been all that good, but I've always liked them. Wolves will shut out Sac in Game 6, And NJ should win setting up Min/LA, NJ/Indy LA Vs. Indy in the finals, Lakers win in 6, maybe even 5.

He closed his eyes and threw, caught him clean.It was a lucky punch.But hey, doesn't mean he couldn't have beat him, anyway.I've never liked Roy Jones, personally, so I'm happy about it. And Tyson?I've always had no doubt he'd knock out Jones within 5, at least.

I used to love the Hornets, when they were in Charlotte and Mugsy Bogues, but now, meh, who cares about them.Sure, the got Baron, but I've never liked Mashburn for some reason, so I don't give a crap about them now.Found it gay when they changed to NO, too.

Lake Show leading in SA early in the third, they better win too, they've been my pick all year, behind the T'Wolves and Heat.I've always liked the Heat, for some reason.

I've watched virtually all of Season one (finale in 4 days time where I am) and I've thought it's great.And Dr. Troy owns Cole, god, I hated him in Charmed, but he is the man in Nip/Tuck.

I hated GTA 1 for some reason, found it too simplistic.Didn'tn bother playing GTA 2. then my cousin rented GTA3, and feel in love with the game.Got bored with VC until I was told I had to give it back to my brother(lives away from me) so I thrashed it, as I had been slowly doing missions, and I found it too easy in the end.However, this game looks pretty decent.I probably won't buy it, just "take" it from a friends house, and not return it until completed.

Vladinator was easily the best, but shit, I haven't seen BattleBots in well over 3 years....and the Ladybug one was pretty cool, but I hafta agree with a few others, Biohazard was the best, but my personal favourite was Vlad The Impaler.Who owned.Majorly.

I laugh at all the people on the old board which said the Heat would get swept, sure they're not going to win the Series(most likely, unless they win game 5) but come on, they were on a 16 game win streak at home...sure, it has to break sometime, but I still find it funny that the only Rookie left in the Playoffs wasn't 'Melo, or LeBron, but the guy that came third, Wade.I hope the Heat win, actually, the Playoffs need a shake up, not just routine stuff, like most of it is.Heat make Conference Final, it'd be huge.But it won't happen, probably. Lakers lose game 5, win 6, and win 7, that's my guess.Parker's not going to take over anymore, because the Lakers have figured out how to contain him.... And Kobe needs to got to court more, then the Lakers would roll through everyone, seeing as Kobe seems to realise all his emotion in great Basketball.
