LOL the pre-game?

Anyone notice the ESPN guy that talks at the start of the pre-game (black dude with glasses) one of his eyebrow goes way lower than his other? It's kinda creepy.

It gets my fired up. I think Stewart Scott has a glass eye or something. It's always been creepy like that. He used to not wear glasses and it looked even more fucked up.

 

[ArtsyGirl]

Oh glass eye!! eek.. It would make sense though, you'd want a good excuse like that.

Why was Odom doing squats during the Anthem? haha

 

[Jeremy]

Might have been stretching his back or something.

From what I saw it looked like Lee had gone too far behind the rim and put too much on the shot. I think it would have missed anyway, who knows..

 

[ArtsyGirl]

Terrible no call on Pietrus... Gonna be a good game, Magic are playing alot better..

 

[yak pac fatal]

^thanks to the home crowd, theyre playin with energy

 

[ArtsyGirl]

Doesn't hurt that most of their players are shooting well..

 

[S O F I]

[Killuminatii 71]

WOW. Can't believe this shit. Lakers had like 6 opportunities to make a 3 at the end... mother... effer!

Best game so far.

lmao at the confetti coming down before the game ended hahaha.

 

[yak pac fatal]

LOL!!! first ever playoff victory

 

[Scoobyffc]

nice game for alston
kobe was off the second half so many mistakes

and It makes me sad to see Luke Walton playing

 

[Killuminatii 71]

If kobe had made his freethrows and his shots, 3-0.

in other news...

According to NBA sources the team is expected to announce this afternoon a deal sending sharp-shooter Jason Kapono(notes) to the Philadelphia 76ers for bruising forward Reggie Evans(notes)."

Doug Smith of the Toronto Star confirms the report and drops some numbers:

The deal also gives Toronto some financial flexibility.

Evans is owed $4.6 million next season and $5 million in 2010-11 on his contract.

Kapono's deal will pay him $6.2 million this coming season and $6.6 million the season after.

Toronto's last push to try to make the team better to keep Bosh?
