Kobe gets a seemingly uncontested layup. You can tell know one wanted to give the refs a reason to send Bryant to the line.

Roy gets it back with a driving two and a foul. That's a bigtime take. Brandon giving Kobe a bit of his own medicine.

Lakers throw up a brick, but Gasol gets the rebound. He goes back up with it, and it looks like LaMarcus gets a clean block, but it's called a foul. That's free throws. makes both.

Blazers break the halfcourt trap, and the Lakers, for some strange reason, don't foul right away. Precious seconds run off the clock before Kobe fouls Jarrett, sending him to the line. Jack makes both. With 20 seconds to go, it's Blazers 109, Lakers 103. It's looking good, but it ain't over.

Im a lakers fan and everytime i watch the lakers play portland its a good game. Every time i watch L.A play in portland the announcers are taking verbal shots at la saying its a good thing la doesnt have to play portland in the playoffs. They also keep bringing up the 6 game winning streak at rose. If L.A was to play portland in the playoffs with a healthy bynum L.A would punish them. if my memory serves me right then you remember what happen in the 2000 western finals when L.A knocked out portland in game 7 after coming back from a huge deficit. Portland treats the game vs la as the championship game but its too bad la will actually get there not portland. Anyway i feel the announcer for portland are extremely disrespectful towards L.A. If anyone else feels this way let me know.; 10:21 PM
The X-man said...: Let's think about this for a second, the announcers are PAID BY THE BLAZERS, and you expect them to treat the Lakers like the second coming? Not to mention they gave props to the Lakers when they needed to, but c'mon, they're not going to out-praise their bosses now...

Don't like the heat, stay out of the kitchen, or at least find a Lakers-friendly broadcast to watch, and quit complaining.; 1:51 PM
