38-10 Can any team win when they loose that bad at the line?

Let's see, I remember when I was 10 and played against my bigger brothers and they would spot me 10 baskets and play to 11. Let's just give the Celtics 30 points at the begining of the game and have even calls from that point on. Wouldn't that be fun!

    Lets do some math.....

    Boston 38ft attempts.

    Lakers 10ft attempts

    Boston shot 19 shots in the paint.

    Lakers shot 35... yes 35 shots in the paint.

    Lakers were clearly the aggressor... i don't want to hear anymore "Lakers weren't aggressive enough."

    I consider Danny. Being from Boston, I right this moment seen Clay Buchholz. This guy started out undesirable this year, then began to pitch properly, and went top decrease back to being a wounded duck fluttering around with a broken wing, under no circumstances to fly returned. My call for this guy is Clay Suckholz by way of fact jointly as the no-hitter grow to be final season, this season has been like a 1969 pink Ford Mustang Convertible that began existence as a super American dream device (final years Buchholz), and then unexpectedly met the decrease back of a truck and shattered into 1000 little products (this years Suckholz). It have been given so undesirable for this guy, he grow to be sent to no longer the Triple A group, yet right down to the Double A group. Now it extremely is gruesome.

    No, how can they. The Celtics played a great game but the ref's is falling asleep at the wheel. How can a team win if the free throw discrepancy is 38-10, wow. But the Celtics played great to win the game. But the free throw was just horrendous, 38-10, wow.

    Can any team win when they (lakers) settle for jump shots most of the game?

    Yeah you can say that kobe might not have wanted to drive to the basket b/c of his fouls. But w/ the exception of walton and gasol everyone was settling for jump shots.

    That could have been the difference in the game. If you are driving to the basket on most of your plays and are getting contact then you can complain about the refereeing. Look at the Celts series with the Cavs when Lebron got to the line frequently. It was because he was being aggressive instead of taking jump shots.

    Well maybe if the Lakers were more aggressive, and stopped playing undisciplined basketball, then they'd be at the line more often and the Celtics would be at the line less...

    Well if the Lakers were more agressive, maybe they would get to the line. Remember Boston is a very good defensive club

    dont forget even with a jump start like that, they cant get too comfortable, lakers never gave up, and almost tied the game...
