15 Years Ago Today - Kings vs Lakers Game 6 2002 WCF

[Bilz]

I swear 99% of people that cry conspiracy about this series didn't watch this series at all. Bottom line is the Queens choked this series away, because of course they were led by the King of all chokers in Chris Webber. Series aren't won or loss in one game.



A rivalry requires that both teams win back and forth. Queens ain't win shyt. It was never a rivalry.

So to be clear, you were cool with the Leon Powe game after seeing the way the Lakers choked away game 4, right?

 

[Rakim Allah]

I thought it was a pretty typically called game, given the circumstances, but as someone who watched the Lakers and Kings a lot, I may have been more conditioned to it than most.

The Lakers were not going to get eliminated early because of a questionable call. If that meant giving 20 close calls to them, so be it.

Also Stern didn't want another 15-1 run by the Lakers after game one. Going forth both teams got favorable and bias calls until game 7.

ish was wwe type rigged

stern said lakers are wining no matter what

Game 6 was clearly fixed and the NBA knows it.

So was Game 2 and 5...and the NBA knows it.

That Kings/LWO rivalry was

Too bad the Kings faded into oblivion to keep it up. Only Kings fans are holding that one sided rivalry.

I wonder how sohh was during this.

So to be clear, you were cool with the Leon Powe game after seeing the way the Lakers choked away game 4, right?

Let me know when you find a post by me complaining about that game.

Is that how you fix a game, by waiting until the 4th quarter and making one bad call?

Y'all don't even think anymore. Game 6 was systematic from the start.

one bad call, the irony.

Bibby was the only one on Sacramento that wasn't shook. That team was talented, but so fukking p*ssy, led by C-Webb's scary self.

fukk them pussies crying from the start, the refs were going to give them shyt that night I was at a house party, the whole fukken party stopped for that fourth quarter to watch the fukkery. Great times, fukked a bytch too that night

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

No doubt in my mind Kings were losing that game 7 at home in Arco. With that said Game 6 was a robbery, I remember that whole game vividly.

Everybody was cooking hitting shots and looked poised to close it out which is odd because you'd think with that team they would show more poise at home.

I knew it was over when they fouled out our whole frontline , the Bibby foul was just the blatant one we will all remember. There were so many more sneaky calls that even the commentators smelt something funny in the air.

shyt was and looking back I haven't been able to physically , mentally or emotionally invest myself in a playoff series since then I just watch for the Fukkery now
