Now game two were over. So, is Spurs a better team?
Yeah, they won at home. Lakers doesn't seem dominant at all and I think it is pretty obvious that D Fisher cannot guard Parker.

how can you predict the series after one measly game? The Spurs won a game AT HOME, congratulations. Hell even the Rockets one a game at home against the Lakers. Up until the mid/end of the 4th quarter the game was neck and neck and anyone coudla one. Lakers just made a few bad plays in a row that snowballed into a hole they could not get out of. I'd say wait until game 2 is over before making predictions.
The Laker team is an entirely different team come playoffs. They can and WILL find a way to win. Malone and Payton want a ring too badly for them to let this opportunity slip. As long as we can steal one from the Spurs we will be in good shape once we come home. This season especially, we have done very well at home.
It was surprising to see Shaq start to become an important offensvie player again. He was neglected in the Rockets series, as the other Laker players stepped up big. Now, he has become a major important offensive player again. His F/T percentage needs to get around 50-60 % though.
We do need to find a way to stop Tony Parker though. He IS the Spur's offense. Without him the spurs would be nothing. He single handedly creates plays for all his teammates. I say stick D Fish on him the entire game and let Payton's whining lazy ass sit on the bench.

wow, i missed that play. why was willis in the game so early?
Lakers spent the early part of the quarter lobbing over Rasho into Shaq, for a bunch of easy buckets. Rasho's been fronting Shaq. Pop called a timeout and pulled Rasho, for Willis who hasn't been fronting.Originally posted by: shady06
