- Thread starter I. Cold
- Start date
taking a charge in a playoff game...bitch made
Homie i dont know why you come here sounding all condecending to me, Acting like you the only one who watches the nba. Guess what theres other people exactly like you who watch and analyze games. I've been a laker fan since 91' ive watched Laker basketball and nba basketball eversince, im educated man, i dont mean to brag, but im speakin the truth.
The mvp race wasnt clear cut, but IMO evidence leans more towards Lebron and Kobe to be MVP not nash. I dont let these sports writers influence my opinion cuz str8 up i know alot about ball and can make my own infrences.
(if you actually read the majority of them, they are a joke, sports journalism is just like any other type of journalism, alot of illustration and imagery all used to support ones agenda) Some of these writers have as much B-ball experiance as i do.
Fact is, and you can look this up, Ever since the Colorado incedent the media has made a point of making negative articles about kobe (How many articles have you seen saying kobe shoots too much, but the records show that when he shoots alot the lakers win more, also the same writers who say he shoots too much, find themsleves critisizing him for shooting too less at some point)
Basicly if you are a sports journalist, you have to write to appease the avg. audience and the avg audience, Hates kobe, loves lebron, Loves white pgs who pass well. So dont get confused and say that these "journalists" are basketball experts.
Ima have to disagree w/ u man ive seen alot of angles and it was a super close call but nash wasnt set when kobe got airborn
and on that play, EVEN IF it was a charge, do you actually expect Joey Crawford to make that call? Its the playoffs, its American Basketball, this is what makes American brand basketball specail, The athletisism, the dunks. If nash did that in your local rec center they woulda laughed his ass out the gym/playground! Every single dude in the vicinity woulda called nash a bitch for tryin to take a charge. In the NBA playoffs, basketball is a different brand of ball, more physical, more grimey..Taking charges in tthat point of the game Is bitch MADE..I dunno but rewarding nash with a foul call on that play woulda irked 9/10 basketball fans.

LOL come on mane, I know you a Laker fan and all, but try to be objective. I am not a fan of either team in the series, I'm just a fan and student of the game of basketball. That was clearly a charge. He had position with his feet set outside of the restricted area and Kobe just bowled over him. I do believe that is the definition of a charge.
Learn how to read... how can Nash "make" his teammates knock down their shots. He does create and get them good looks... but it's on that individual to knock down their shots. So dewd you stick to what ever you're good at. Obviously you aren't good at reading. So with Lamar Odom improving does Kobe get credit for "making" Lamar better? I can see a coach making a player better but how can another player make another play better?
Real talk... he probably thought... I am going to be named MVP and this is my homecourt so let me step over here and get this charge. We all know former MVP's used to get calls in their favor (Jordan, Shaq, Duncan).... Didn't work out this time. Kobe was already in the air. Y'all gotta keep it real and stop dunk hatin'...
congratulations. you're a Lakres fan (big suprise there). you want a cookie?
Yes, its SO clear-cut, in fact, that Nash won the title IN A LANDSLIDE. and congrats again about being a big boy and being able to make your own inferences.. that doesnt mean you know shit about what an MVP is

oh boo hoo. there's a conspiracy out to get kobe, yes.. Im sure thats it. it has nothing to do with him allegedly raping a girl, then acting like an ass to the media. kobe brings that shit on to himself, my friend. dont kid yourself
yo.. they do it for a LIVING. you think they just read prosports daily, watch the espn 10 ten highlights and thats it? they dedicate their lives to the game. they KNOW the game.. just cuz you been a fan since 91 (wow) doesn't mean that you know more about the game than these people do. get real

IT WAS A CHARGE. look, here is the definition of a blocking foul and a charge.
Blocks/Charge: A block/charge foul occurs when a defender tries to get in front of his man to stop him from going in that direction. If he does not get into a legal defensive position and contact occurs, it is a blocking foul. If he gets to a legal position and the offensive player runs into him it is an offensive foul. In both situations, if the contact is minimal, no foul may be called. To get into a legal position defending against the dribbler, the defender just needs to get in front of him. On a drive to the basket, the defender must get to his position before the shooter starts his upward shooting motion. For most other cases, the defender must get into position and allow enough distance for the offensive player to stop and/or change direction.
That means, regardless of how "airborne" kobe got, IT WAS A CHARGE. I dont give a fuck how well kobe played, that was a charge. moving on...

Easy, by setting them up. Nash does it directly, Shaq makes Wade better indirectly by drawing a double team which can leave Wade open or make it esaier for him to go one on one. You can give Kobe credit for indirectly making Odom better because he doesn't face as many double teams as he used to so the games easier for him. If you can't understand that you must be mentally retarded. The voters agreed with me so you know what? I win, game over.
