2009 NBA Finals: Game 4 Lakers @ Magic - Let's go Magic, Let's go!

PrintTonight might be the biggest game of the series. Either the Magic tie it up at 2-2 or the Lakers take a stranglehold on the series at 3-1. I can't see the Magic being down 3-1 and taking 3 straight games from the Lakers but there's achance that they can win the series if it's tied 2-2. Tonight's game won't disappoint. I dont' think we'll see any more blowouts as in Game 1. The remaining games from here on out will be close throughout.
My new favorite player of the finals after the jump.
I don't know what it is, but I'm rooting for him to do well. I'll go so far as to saying I wish I had a Pietrus jersey (GSW or ORL) to wear during these games. He just seems like a good guy who's found a niche and is playing well at the right time. In game 3 I was expecting him to miss those 2 crucial free throws down the stretch just like he did in Utah a couple years ago. But nope, swishes both free throws. I haven't seen him step out of bounds on the sideline or make a silly turnover. His body language is different and he's playing with a lot more confidence. I'm glad he's found a role on the Magic.Now if only Adonal could get out there...
Blog Battle
Silver Screen and Roll is previewing the game from the Lakers' point of view and the Magic point of view. They have a linkfest going on and are even organizing a watch party to get together with other losers Laker fans.
Meanwhile the good guys aka the Orlando Magic are covered by Third Quarter Collapse who have a linkfest going on as well. The big question, can the Magic keep up their hot shooting from Game 3? Hit up their open thread for a preview.
Quick Thoughts
Here's what worries me about the Magic's chances tonight. They barely won in Game 3 despite an off night from Kobe and the Magic shot the lights out, best shooting performance of any team ever in the Finals. And the game came down to free throws. They should have won by double digits.
They'll have to step up their D tonight and do a better job in the 4th quarter. Last game seemed that the Lakers picked up the pressure on D in the 4th and the Magic offense became a little too helter skelter.
Tonight will be a good one. I'm looking forward to it.
Unfortunately, I'm picking the Lakers by 5. I hope I'm wrong.

You can switch a couple calls but you can’t completely save a team from sucking.

kobe’s jumper when fouled by pietrus wasnt a foul….he hit his shooting hand….thats part of the ball
a lot of loose ball fouls on dwight???
The foul where Fish got called for pushing Dwight (When Dwight was pushing on Gasol) — go watch this again….dwight has his hand on gasol and gasol flops…and not to mention dwight gets fouled first if the other was even a foul
it doesnt go both ways…its very obv the lakers….esp kobe….get very favored with calls

I agree with you when it comes to superstars getting calls more often and getting off the leash often.
But, I draw the line in when people say teams get an edge because officials connive with their officiating crew or with David Stern to help a team out. I just don’t see it. Yea, home teams always get advantages, but I don’t believe certain teams do.
Like I said, Orlando got alot of freebies as well and the link I put above with D12 was too obvious.

Actually
Mark Jackson was talking about how great the play was while the replay was showing, and it CLEARLY showed the elbow to Jameer Nelson’s jaw yet Jackson ignored it and kept on praising the pass to Fisher.
by Precise Films Productions on Jun 11, 2009 11:04 PM PDT up reply actions
If you're...
…trying to argue that personal success is dependent on competence, I think the reality of life is that the two can be woefully unrelated. In an ideal system, perhaps, that would be the case, but the fact that Mark Jackson was a very successful basketball player doesn’t mean that he’s right and I’m wrong when I say that Derek Fisher’s OT three never should have happened. Kobe Bryant committed an offensive foul, an extremely blatant one at that. Suffice to say that if Mark Jackson doesn’t care that the pivotal game of the championship season, tied in OT, was swung by a blatantly uncalled offensive foul with less than a minute to go, well… he’s wrong about that. Doesn’t matter how many assists he has, or how few I do.
I’m sure I’ll be faced with the retort that the Magic pissed away the game before this play, and that may be (albeit only in an emotional sense – a tie game is just that, and the Magic having the ball back in a tie game that late in OT is a big swing), but the NBA like to pull “rule of law” stuff with some regularity, and you can’t have it both ways. You can’t cost the Magic a game by not counting the clearly committed basket interference by Gasol in game 2; not if you’re the same league that insisted Amare Stoudemire simply couldn’t play against the Spurs after the Horry foul, because the rule was cut and dried. The league needs to start examining themselves as far as how they decide to change officiating styles. I’d be in favor of generally letting a little more go, but it needs to be consistent throughout. Otherwise, letting Kobe Bryant thwack Nelson in the chops isn’t a basketball decision you’ve made by a reasoned series of steps; it’s an unavoidable situation which renders the final moments of the game undeniably less fair, less exciting, and more frustrating than anything else. At the end of the game last night, I wished I’d never bothered to turn it on. I want to watch the two best teams play, not the officials and commentators doling out their brand of justification for letting a superstar sh.. on the rules in his quest for personal glory.
And it's not even a conspiracy theory
It’s pretty widely excepted that Kobe (and other stars) get calls
Rigged? Are you serious?
In a game in which every Laker bigman was in foul trouble all night and in which the Magic had almost double the Lakers’ free throw attempts (37-20), you’re trying to say that the NBA was clearly fixing this game for the Lakers?! Come on, you can’t be serious with that. Look, if the NBA was trying to help the Lakers out, they did a horrendous job with all the fouls they called and all the free throws they gave Orlando. Plus, if there’s a conspiracy to get the Lakers the title then clearly the Magic are in on it, what with missing 15 of those 37 free throws they got.
Please. Get out of here with that nonsense.
Hey, the WWE is meant to be rigged. It’s like a movie or a show.

But yeah, clearly the NBA was rigging this game in favor of the Lakers tonight. That’s why Orlando was up 5 with 32 seconds to go, and it’s why the Magic basically doubled up the Lakers in free throw attempts. Man, that David Stern, when will he ever stop!

Fish was an ex-Warrior lol
Since the dubs aren’t in the playoffs and I’m the only one who defends him here, that automatically made me the enemy anyways, so I had to go with it.

I cheered for Bulls over Celtics, does that make me a closet Bulls fan?
MJ is one of my favorite players, does that make me a closet Bulls fan?
I cheered for Spurs over Mavs, does that make me a closet Spur fan?
Admiral is one of my favorite players, does that make me a closet Spur fan?
I also went with Hawks over Cavs, Mavs over Denver.
I also like Thurmond, Ewing, Russell, Wilt, Kareem, Shaq, Zeke, Barry amongst others. That must mean I’m a closet fan of all of those teams.
If anything I’m an NBA fan.

Giants and Dodgers is a huge rivalry
Warriors/Lakers on the other hand not so much. As well as most every other team in recent memory not named Kings or Mavs.

Derek Fisher screwed the Spurs last season, too.
Brent Barry (or Manu Ginobili?) pump faked Fisher, and Fisher LANDED on Barry yet there was no defensive foul.
All of a sudden the broadcasters were all supporting the no call. I remember someone saying that Brent Barry should have done a better job trying to sell the call. WTF is that? It’s the REFEREE’S job to see the call in the first place, and now the broadcaster is saying that Brent Barry should flop in order to get the call?
It was supposed to be the Spurs vs the Celtics in the Finals last year.

Oh yeah and Pietrus.
Man I’ve been rooting for that guy so hard throughout the Finals. He spent all those years on the Warriors making us frustrated with his turnovers, but we loved him at the same time. Now, he goes from a loser team to a team that’s competing in the NBA Finals, and has to guard LeBron and now Kobe.
If only he made that potential game winning three pointer, I would have been so happy for him. Derek Fisher makes a three, and then Pietrus comes back and makes a three to win the game and becomes the unlikely hero. Would have made for a great NBA Finals game, with two former Warriors making the final two plays.

Whoa
Who’s this Fisher guy? Why can’t the Warrior get someone with stones like that?
Now wheres the rubbers? Whose got the rubbers?
I noticed there's so many of them
and there's really not that many of us.
