WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ESPN.COM: NBA

the LAKERS finally pulled out of this one. my heart was doing flips and jumps, as the game took it's course. the refs finally called sac-town's dirty big men, and they fouled out, as they rightfully should. the victory is not as sweet as it should have been, because kobe elbowed bibby in one of the last plays, and didn't get called for a foul (see, i'm a fair guy!). the thing is, it should never have come to that, because 1) webber should have fouled out of the game with 3 minutes left, when he tried to swipe the ball from horry, and instead smacked horry's wrists, and was not called, allowing him to stay in the game. 2) several plays before that one, bibby lowered his shoulder into fisher, and should have been called for an offensive foul, but instead, fisher picked up his 5th personal foul. those were three BIG calls at the end of the game that the refs messed up on, two hurting the lakers, and one favoring them. but we still pulled out of this one. my blood is still racing from the excitment. i won't be able to sleep for a while.

WHOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
bring on game 7!!
