OMG! LAKERS WIN!! :) :laugh: :p :woot: :jump: :jump: :bounce:

Final second shot in overtime by Kobe wins it for the LAKERS! 3-1 Lakers lead going into game 5 in Phoenix.

Final Score OT: Lakers: 99 Suns: 98

Oh. My. God.

Did anyone see the Lakers/Suns game? Kobe Bryant = holy moly. He did it at the last second in regulation and did it again at the last second in overtime.

Crazy.

:yes: that was amazing.. best game i've seen all season so far.

Kobe is the ****. (Y)

dude that lakers game was such bs. nash was only foulded about 3 times when he had the ball, and they didn't call anything. i mean, the lakers were TRYING to foul...and the refs didn't call jack. suns got screwed on this one. i hope they come back to take it.

no no no no.. i think it was very fair.. did you see the replays on how many times kobe was fouled from the 3point line to the basket? at one point he was fouled 5 times and not one ref blew a whistle.

clippers and dallas advance to the second round

it'd be interesting to see a lakers vs clippers and dallas vs san antonio match up... i kinda dont like to see spurs winning though :/

but i def want to see the lakers win this round to face the clippers.. two home teams.

Raja Bell's behaviour during the Laker-Sun game was really bad. It doesn't mean you can wrestle the player if you can't guard him. Totally no sportsmanship!

Oh yeah, it's not like Kobe didn't elbow Bell multiple times in the face, one of which the refs called a foul ON BELL afterwards. Phil Jackson didn't tell Bell he deserved it, of course not.

Nash wasn't fouled with three guys huddled over him hacking for the ball. Nash and Diaw didn't call a time out. Walton didn't step out of bounds. Jones wasn't held on the last shot.

Oh wait, you must be in bizarro world.

Suns will win game 7.

just letting you know the foul was on raja before kobe elbowed him...foul by raja, whistle blew while kobe was making his move which was when the elbow came

and calling a foul on kobe for that elbow is like calling foul on kobe when he went up for a shot and elbowed Barbosa on the way up..its not gonna happen, thats part of the game. Almost everytime someone makes a post move and turns you are gonna get an elbow, thats how you protect the ball. Just watch shaq for a few plays against the nets..krystic got totally beat up by him last year with those elbows, it will be interesting to see if krystic can handle him this time. Dipping your shoulder into someone is when u get in trouble

however, clotheslining people are not part of the game. I am hoping for a lakers/clippers series but I think having raja/kobe got at it again in game 7 will be great. Im curious to what happens if theres a blowout. If lakers are down what will stop someone for going after raja or vice versa.

as for everything else, this has been the best first round of the playoffs i've ever seen

kings are hanging with the spurs cant wait til tonite, bonzi wells is playing amazing. im just waiting for ginobli and parker to get all their usual calls from the ref whenever they flop towards the basket (in the spurs defense, the refs do even it out by picking on duncan for the smallest fouls) but ginobli and parker get every call in the book, especially ginobli's flops

bulls kept coming back against the heat (which I think the heat do not have a great chance against the nets without a 100% wade, unless shaq plays like he did in game 6, which i doubt he will for more than 1 game)

im mainly a cavs fan and i must say everytime gilbert arenas touches the ball im scared to death, he never seems to miss

    • AMD 9070XT

      Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/

      One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.

      I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.

      I really hope the author's health is ok. Squirreling away a official backup of this software. Looks like the internet archive already cached a copy as well - https://web.archive.org/web/20...ldbit-soft.fi/software.html

      AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
