Even though I believe that we just took any hope from the Wolves in winning this series after game 5, Game 6 is still an important game that should not be overlooked. A desperate animal is a dangerous thing, and the Wolves will do anything they can, to stay alive. However, the World Champs have been here before. They smell blood and know when to closeout teams. Not only do they have the memory of Chick to give them motivation for the 4-peat, now they have dedicated their run for 4 to our fallen hero Rick Fox. Now we have extra fuel to add in our fire. The Lakers know how important Game 6 is. They want to end it at Staples.

GO LAKERS!!!!!
4 PEAT IS 4 CHICK AND FOXY!!!!!!!!!

yEAH!
AND ENDING IT AT STAPLES
TEH CROWD ON THEIR FEET
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
LAkers know they want to close this out a
and not give the wolves anymroe chances...........

My dad is such a jerk.

He calls me today, and he tells me to start waiving, so I do. He then sais, that's what youll be doing when Im at Staples tonight! It made me so mad you guys But I hope he has fun!

Anyways, Im going to just say, last game the Triangle was executed flawlessly. I hope it carries over into tonight...

DOnt you live with your dad?

Yes, im only 16 and in high school, but Mondays - Thursdays he works in Pasadena...

Great Game!!!!!

The last two games will just send a message to the rest of the losers still alive in the playoffs, that the World Champs are taking no prisoners!!!!!!

Hey Spurs, Hey Queens, I know you guys were watching!!!!!!

I know that you guys are scared!!!!!

The Lakers Train just rolled over the Wolves. Next victim, San Antonio Spuds!!!!!

Go Lakers!!!!!!
4-PEAT 4 CHICK!!!!!!!!!!!

Wern't you all just absolutly entertained during the 4th, what a great game. Bring on the Spurs baby... Bring on the Spurs...

Another thing, I have a new found respect for Min. They made the Lakers run for their money for this series, and nothing came easy. I do feel Lakers got their swagger due to the hard pressure that Min. put on them. They played the Lakers smart and well, and I really do think Garnett played well as well. Im kind of glad were done with the Wolves to tell you the truth... It's time for the team of the past now...

Yepp
I wsish the best fo luck to the wolves not drawing us again next year adn advancing........
It was kinda sad seeeing kg from teh bench......
but bad luck for them of drawin us
SPURS BABY!

The Spurs swept all four regular-season matchups with the Lakers this season and Bryant said earlier that maybe Los Angeles would return the favor with a sweep in the playoffs.

"I think Kobe said something about that, that we could sweep them," Los Angeles coach Phil Jackson said. "That's what Kobe said. That is a possibility."

GO 4 IT LAKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
