Kwame and Luke = momentum killers, and Phillip's poor rotations

Phil's rotations in the 4th quarter cost us any chance of winning this game. Kwame and Luke destroyed any semblance of offense or defense the Lakers had going, while George and Cook rotted away on the bench when they were clearly playing great for the team.

With the Lakers up two and Phil took Cook out and Sasha, Luke and Kwame came in, I turned to my wife and said "Dallas will be up 10 by the end of the quarter, watch." They were up 8 at the end of 3.

Luke got smoked. Then he proceded to get smoked again. And again. And once more.

NO, Phil is the momentum killer. He didn't have to pull out Smush and George out...he did, which was dumb, idiotic & moronic. Howard then torched Luke for 2 baskets in the post, Sasha gaved up 4 FTs 30 ft from the basket...momentum killed.

Phil then proceeded to put FLAMING Kwame in the 4th...which killed the Lakers.

By the way, refs took turns raping Kobe. Way to go. I'm going into official NBA boycott...no more NBA products.

I've been saying this all year. Luke is the biggest momentum killer in the NBA. I dread seeing him in games. I'd trade Luke for Harold Miner at this point.

At this point, I'd trade Luke for a Happy Meal....with cheese.

I was shouting at the TV when I saw Cook go to the bench and Luke and Sasha checked-in... I think at that point, probably most of this board knew we were going to blow it then and there... If its so plainly obvious to us, why wasn't it obvious to our coaching staff... Can someone please explain the rationale of that move, coz its still eating away at me hours after the game ended... Why? Why?

Luke is a big liability every time he steps on the court, guys either post him up or take him off the dribble. As for Kwame, what more can you say? Another freaking airball on a layup, even Stu and Joel were saying how can you not draw iron on that?
