The final nail is in the coffin for this group of former Champions. Shooting 62 percent from the 3 point line 20/32 and veterans Peja Stojacovic and Jason the Jet Terry combining to hit 16-17 3 PT FGS. For the Fomer Seattle Franklin High star, 9/10 from 3 amnd 11/14 overall sent the Lakers on a vacation. For Dallas
in one of the most prolific shooting demonstrations in playoff history, has sent the Mavs to the Western Conference Finals vs OKC or Memphis. By the numbers the Laker bench was outscored 86-37, Out rebounded 40-39 and a record 49 3 pointers for the 4 game series. The Mavs who are now 5-0 since
the 23 point loss in Portland courtesy of another Seattle Super star Brandon Roy. The Lakers on the other hand were vicitimized by thier failure to guard the 3 point line and rotation and help defense issues. The normally classy storied franchise had a few players Andrew Bynum and Lamar Odom committing flagrant fouls in obvious frustration in the Later stages of the game. The Lakers may need to dismantle this team and or see a Dr. Jerry Buss maybe? The end for Phil Jackson came swiftly after a storied stretch 11 Titles 229 playoff wins and a .704 winning percentage all the Zen in the world would not help this team now. GM Mitch Kupchack must consider working on the Chemistry and attitude of this team. I know many Laker fans I did not want to inflame the situation amd making the situation worse Jason Terry provided enough fuel for that fire and as a result he and the Mavericks will be flying into the Western Conference finals as smoothly as a Boeing Jet on an Everett WA test flight . With reflections on round ball I am Mark Alan Janisch WWS
