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.

/agree.

That was complete bull****

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

    • Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
