I am a Laker fan (Showtime!), but a Kobe hater. Celtics in 6.

Not a Paul Pierce hater but certainly no fan at all.
This comment sums up my perception.

"And the Oscar goes to…The player who, during an Eastern Conference finals game in Orlando, was identified on a fan’s sign as ‘RuPaul Pierce.’ The biggest diva in the NBA, that’s Pierce. He sells fouls like 7-Eleven sells Slurpees – constantly. He is as dramatic as an Elvis sighting. He is a soap opera in shorts. The prediction here is it will take Pierce less than one quarter of Game 1 Thursday to be so wronged by a Laker defender that he’ll appear to have been hit by an ice cream truck.”

OBTW i’ve never seen kobe be wheeled away in agony in a wheelchair and then walk back on to the court 2 min later skipping like a loon.

Pierce was a lame for that stunt! Too bad Willis Reed did it 40 years earlier with the Knicks.

I like Pierce the least of the bunch. I have always liked Allen and Garnett before their stints in Beantown. Rondo is playing awesome.

100%

I believe the ‘RuPaul Pierce.’ description fits much better.

I will never like pierce again after that bullshit.
Rondo is amazing garnett is entertaining and allen is pure class.
The lakers are too strong too long for boston.
Kobe is one of the most entertaining players in the nba and has been for years. His supporting cast is top notch and I cannot see them losing, regardless of what happened in 08. Last but not least artest better figure out what the clock on the wall counting down from 24 is referring to.

I believe the Lakers are taking this series very personal.

Hey easy on Pierce--he went to KU . Lakers will win---different team than 2 years ago and Kobe won't let them lose. Some of those late game shots against the Suns by Kobe in the last series were almost Jordan-like.
