Anyone notice the silence after Mark Jackson mentioned that Kobe was in the game at the beggining of the 4th quarter. Jackson said that PJ wanted to close out the series by having Kobe in.... Then JVG said that the Lakers should sit Kobe cuz it will look better winning without Kobe in the 4th....then silence for for a good 10 seconds. lol

A desperate attempt for wanting his team to get back in the game. LOL
LOL I remember that. Van Gundy said it would mean more if the Lakers won the quarter without Kobe...


then Mike Breen asked Jeff "what's your last name again?"

Jeff: "exactly"

I never took it as anything but a joke, just like some of all his other wild suggestions.

JVG has been nothing but emphatic in his praise of Kobe, Phil, Pau, and LO throughout the playoffs.

Na, think about it for a sec

how would you feel if you're a die hard Laker fan and you're watching a 70+ year old Hall of Fame Laker handing the Finals MVP trophy to the Celtics?

Not too good lol

NO, I was pissed that Stern did not allow Bill Russell to at least do the talking. Stern is a self-centered a-hole. How much more would that moment have meant to Kobe had it been the all-time great CELTIC handing a LAKER the first "Bill Russell Playoff MVP" award?

I'd have preferred it... much respect for Russell, so stop hatin'.

Seeing how the award was named after Russell, and he was a Celtic, it makes sense that it would be mentioned.

I loved it. Probably chapped the collective ass of Celtic Nation.

Watching Jerry West hand the NBA trophy to the Celtics would definitely tick me off.

flip side of the coin.

Imagine your a celtic fan. One of your players gets the finals mvp named after him and the first one to receive this newly renamed award is...........A LAKER?

i love it!

I'm pissed enough that his silhouette graces their uniforms.

This Laker team was a streak buster, so it's fitting it busted up all these streaks.



This team has found a way to win against historical odds and silence all of the critics, it's probably the most satisfying win of the decade as they have shown they have the Heart of a Champion.

^ Agree, I just emailed Dave and said that he needed to apologize to the fans of LA for those hurtful comments about Chick through the years.

Chick's dedication and love for the Lakers will never be forgotten.
