Kak,
76ers problem is not Iverson scoring...he'll do that all day. Who else?
Kobe and Fisher were sharper today. The effects of teh layoff are over. They'll get better as the series goes on.
Lakers in 6, but only because they want to win at home.

kak,
Shaq was everywhere. He also passed really well out of the double teams - 8 or 9 assists....and if Fisher keeps making the threes, it's going to cause real problems.
If Mutombo has to guard Shaq one one one....well, Shaq is averaging 36 with double teams, so...take it away and he gets 50.
If they double team with the power forward, Shaq was able to hit Horry on several cuts for dunks tonight. Still, this seems to be the best way to go. A power forward is big and strong and can get his hands upo and cut down Shaq's line of sight.
If they double team with Iverson (which they did a few times), Fisher is open. If the threes fall - they did tonight and Fisher was 15-20 against the Spurs - the Lakers are unbeatable.
I don't see why they double team with Iveson on Shaq. Realistically, it takes Iverson's quickness off the table (Shaq isn't leaving the post) and at 6-0, Shaq can see right over Iverson. It's a dumb strategy.
It comes down to this: the 76ers are playing with MUCH more heart than the Lakers, and making fewer mistakes. But it is obvious that the 76ers are seriously outgunned on both ends of the floor.
If LA can execute better (10 turnovers in the 4th?) these games won't be close. Still, the 76ers have earned some respect from me.

Isn't that what Bill Walton said right after the game 
lol, jk
Too bad Shaq didn't get 1 more assist for the triple double or it woulda been even better if he woulda got a quadruple double.
I always kinda thought shaq sucked, and was just good cuz he was huge, but he proved me wrong tonight.
Although I don't count blocking Maculloch as a real block

I agree with you on teh defensive scheme Larry Brown is using..He's got it all wrong right now..he needs to use a quick 3 guard line up to chase the cutters and sharpshooter (personally i like iverson, mckie, and maybe even Raja bell at the 1,2 and 3 spots) and then maybe a Geiger or McCullough at the 4 spot, and Mutombo better start playing better on shaq before they take his defensive player of the year award away from him..
I dont like the doubling down on Shaq either..like you said,he can pass like amother fucker now..If I were Larry Brown, use all 6 fouls on all his post players on Shaq: Geiger, McCullough, Mutombo, Hill...I mean thats 24 fouls to give up on Shaq..and say its a shooting foul 3/4 the time...shaq gets 18 free throws----HE's NOT gonna make 10 of them...so that takes away at least 10-15 points from shaq..
I know I know, Hack-a-Shaq isnt basketball but neither is shaq using his left elbow to elevate off of Mutombo's shoulder for his jump hook so Mutombo cant even jump to put an arm up to blockthe shot...

Kobe aint the best player in the NBA, A.I is better.
But watch out cause the best player in the NBA next year will be T-MAC no doubt.

Sixers have no chance
Shaq sucks he just big WTF!!! He is quicker and has better footwork than any other center in the league. He is also the best passing center. Plus hes 350 fucking lbs
Mutumbo is the Def player of the year and does not have a prayer vs Shaq one on one.
Factor in Kobes age, he is leaps and bounds better than A I and V C

I dont think anyone can say iverson is better then kobe. he is a great player, but for one, hes not as well rounded. Second , he shoots usually a pretty miserable percentage, in which kobe does not. As far as vince, i think hes way too hot and cold to be considered the best player. Hes still an immature player and settles for way too many really bad jump shots. Now McGrady is becoming one of the best players in the league, because, like Kobe, he is incredibly well rounded and passes well, rebounds, blocks shots, and has an inside outside game. Both are impressive.

First of all, Kobe is a punk. BUT, that is because he's so young and has gotten so much at an early age. Jordan had some of the same problems when he first entered the league. I remember well because I was a Bulls fan before he came along. I loved his abilities, but not the me, me, me attitude on the court. One thing that helped Jordan was he didn't win a title so quickly. That may hurt Kobe more than it helps him, but only time will tell.
Anyway, I hate the Lakers, but they are the better team. If they stay focused, I don't think the Sixers have a shot. I hope I'm wrong, because I really enjoy that team and Iverson (even if I was pulling for the Bucks...gotta love a bunch of no-names [well almost no-names] doing so much together!).
Iverson is a good guy, no matter what people think about his appearance or past behaviors (when he was a youngin like Kobe).

T-MAC is younger than Kobe. At 21 he is the youngest player in NBA history to score over 27ppg.
Toronto let the real superstar get away.

What is T-MAC? It sounds like a computer sold at McDonalds.
As to the series, The Lakers wer very cold the first game, I rarely saw them make a jump shot, very unlike them. Shaq is too dominant inside and of the 76's double him, that frees up Kobe to start cutting and Fisher to hit threes. And that is without Rick Fox getting hot. Iverson is a spectular player and scores a lot, but shoots a lot to get all those points, which limits the rest of their offense. Lakers in 6.
