AccuScore - Lakers - Spurs Preview

Found May 20, 2008 on AccuScore.com:
PLAYERS: Bruce Bowen,  Ime Udoka,  Fabricio Oberto,  Brent Barry,  Damon Stoudamire,  Kurt Thomas,  Michael Finley,  Tony Parker,  Manu Ginobili,  Ronny Turiaf,  Derek Fisher,  Jordan Farmar,  Sasha Vujacic,  Vladimir Radmanovic,  Pau Gasol,  Lamar Odom,  Kobe Bryant,  Tim Duncan
TEAMS: San Antonio Spurs,  Los Angeles Lakers

The Spurs just keep on winning. They might not be stylish, pretty, or popular, but San Antonio just gets it done behind the big man in the middle, Tim Duncan. The Lakers on the other hand are the glamour team of the NBA. They are young, and play an appealing brand of basketball led by Kobe Bryant. Los Angeles wants another ring, but they will have to go through the champions to get it. Who will survive the rugged West? Let's break it down.

Someone Forgot to Tell Manu to Show Up Last Night

Via Upside and Motor  |  May 22, 2008
It's no secret: Manu Ginobili is what makes the Spurs go. If the Spurs want a chance at this series he's going to have to shoot better than 32%.

Lakers/Spurs Preview: Kobe vs. Manu, Duncan vs. Gasol, Parker vs. Fish

Via The Scores Report  |  May 21, 2008
Like most NBA fans, I was rooting for the Hornets in their series against the Spurs. It's not because I hate San Antonio; I'm just sick and tired of watching them play. But the Spurs prevailed and now they face my least favorite team, the Lakers. As much as I like to root against both of these franchises, this is an excellent matchup. Kobe has the unenviable task of having...

Lakers' Bynum to undergo surgery on injured knee

Via sports.aol.com  |  May 19, 2008
Andrew Bynum has been out for the entire second half of the NBA season with a gruesome knee injury that at first was expected to keep him out a max of 8 weeks. However, 4 months later the news comes in that arthroscopic surgery is required. Bynum will be out for the remainder of the season (duh) and most of the summer. How much will this affect the young and burgeoning center?

Andrew Bynum going under the knife... again

Via The Scores Report  |  May 19, 2008
Andrew Bynum injured his left knee more than four months ago, but even after surgery, it still isn't feeling right. The Lakers have announced that he'll undergo arthroscopic surgery on Wednesday. No matter how they do in this year's playoffs, the Lakers would be the prohibitive favorites to win the 2009 NBA Championship with a healthy Andrew Bynum. Without him...

Distracting Tony Parker

Via Cuzoogle  |  May 19, 2008
Since I love to do my own photoshopping I decided to add to the list of ways to try and throw Parker off his game at the line. Game 7 is tonight and the Hornets need all the help they can get to knock off the champs. So for all you Hornets fans out there, head down to Kinkos and print out some signs. Here are five photos to try.

Spurs Play Stand-By at The Orleans Airport All Night

Via sports.yahoo.com  |  May 20, 2008
Ain't karma a bitch? LOL. After doing the Hornets on their home floor, the Spurs rallied the troops after the press got their pound of flesh and headed for Louis Armstrong airport. Once they got there though, the plane was having mechanical difficulties. To add insult to injury (or as I call it KARMAC JUSTICE), to the mix, there was a convention of cable nerds hoarding all...

Spurs already off to a slow start

The Spurs intended to fly last night from New Orleans to Los Angeles, but they ended up spending the night on their plane.

Meet Spurs superfans Larry, Darryl and their other brother Darryl

Via Sports Hernia  |  May 20, 2008
If the NBA playoffs continue to gift wrap them like this, we're in for a treat. Does anyone know what these guys are holding? Seriously, we don't know what they're holding and we'd like to know. Is this the Spurs purposely unrecognized booster band? Quite honestly they all look like they specialize in something uniquely creepy, we're just not sure what that...

Who's to blame?

Via The Scores Report  |  May 20, 2008
Like most NBA fans living outside the greater San Antonio area, I was rooting for the Hornets last night. I always like to see new blood deep in the playoffs and I was excited about the prospect of a Lakers/Hornets series pitting the top two MVP candidates against each other. But, alas, it was not to be. A horrid third quarter did New Orleans in, and although they made a furious...
