shits rigged
Game 6 of the Western Conference semifinal series between the Los Angeles Lakers and Houston Rockets was the most watched basketball game ever on ESPN.
The Rockets' 95-80 victory on Thursday drew 7.35 million viewers, topping the 6.6 million that watched Miami beat Detroit in Game 6 of the 2006 Eastern Conference finals.

it just shows u how important it is for the lakers to stay in the playoffs.
remember when the cavs made the finals against the spurs. lebron doesn't get viewers. that series was the lowest watched finals.

yeah yeah, the lakers always draw more viewers, but i think lebron is just as much fun to watch. and again, i can't agree with the whole "the game's rigged" thing. maybe when there are large discrepancies with foul shots or something, but when a team just does not make its shots, makes turnovers, etc. that's just the team's problem, not the refs.

you should be LOVING the refs because of those free throws the lakers had at the end.
ahh, what a heartbreaker.

the nugs should have made a lot more of their free throws-don't really know what happened to chauncey. but really, i think the nugs played a lot better and harder. they really let it get away from them. the denver post was sad to read today.

every team has hacked dwight like crazy but no calls

anyways, what an unbelievable performance by orlando!!! i loveee cleveland, but after that third quarter, i couldn't help but go for orlando.
btw, i seriously thought that that last second shot by mo was so going in! haha

the reason why kobe is better is because if he was lebron, he wouldve drove, or made a jumpshot with 13 seconds left, instead of kicking it out

how fisher is still playing is unbelievable. where the hell was bynum in the 4th quarter? dude was playing well. how can u not give the ball to the best closer in the game.
terrible ref calling down the stretch. especially on that jump ball.

^oh please, the refs were terrible the
entire night. and i agree with you about the jump ball-not about the j.r. thing,
but the fact that it should have been nene v. odom. what BS. oh waiiiit, it was nene and gasol! my bad

Haha, that extra weight from McD's must have been what caused the shot clock to go down when he threw down that dunk.
