- Chick Hearn is a true legend of the game. Johnny Most was a ridiculous homer who had an annoying voice and survived as an announcer simply because Boston fans loved him being a homer. Sorry C's fans, it's true.
- What is Paul Pierce doing? For someone who is supposed to be the guy who closes the door, he's completely out of it. You don't let Jordan Farmar drive past you on the baseline.
- Pau Gasol just grabbed another rebound and scored. The Lakers have a 22-7 edge on the glass now, which is not the sign of a soft team.
- Really, I'm stunned. I figured the Lakers would come out like this, desperate for a win, but I did not think the Celtics would just roll over. Someone needs to wake Pierce and Rajon Rondo up right now, because they're just not there. Maybe they should roll out a wheelchair.
- The Celtics have responded by feeding Kevin Garnett. A few years ago, this would be a fair way to respond. In 2010, it isn't.
- I expected Doc Rivers to be angrier in that huddle. I also expected Mark Jackson to say how much he loved Doc Rivers' demeanor in that huddle. Finally, I expected Mark Jackson to ramble on without much of a point.
- There you go, Paul Pierce. Make some good strong moves.
- Unfortunately for the Cs, Rondo still hasn't woken up. Instead of getting back, Rondo made a dumb gamble in transition that allowed Jordan Farmer to get ahead of the pack for the slam.
- Speaking of Jordan Farmar - this is why I said he reminded me of B.J. Armstrong. He's capable of being a real difference maker, but it doesn't always happen. When it does, the Lakers are a much different team. Their bench can actually compete with Boston's bench, and their offense actually runs with some fluidity. Back in 1991, Armstrong's emergence as a key bench piece was huge in the sweep over Detroit. Farmar's emergence, so far, has been a big key in Game 6 tonight. Can I get an amen from KG (via Jose3030).
