Saturday. 5:30PM. Gut-check time.

Raja returns.

Kobe steps it up.

This has been one helluva series. Either way, I'm almost sad to see it end. I feel like, if the Suns pull it out (and they will), we're going to back to square one with LA for the Clipper series.

What a game! What a game! What a game! What a game! What a game! What a game! What a game! What a game! What a game! What a game! What a game!

What a game!

I keep hoping for Kurt to come back. A little more muscle in the middle wouldn't hurt us. First we got to get past L.A. though.

Dam. What a game!

Geeeze... I HAVE to sleep. No way will I be able to for a while and 5:30 comes early!!!

What an unbelievable finish. THis game topped the triple overtime game with the Bulls in the Finals in my book.

Now.... the return of Raja. Hopefully they'll just play ball now.

I can't sleep after what an incredible game that was also! I'm so anxious to see game 7 already. I have to thank Tim Thomas for an incredible shot. He is da game saver!

GAAAHHH! HEART-BREAKER! That was a sweet game but geez, I don't understand why they didn't use Devean George more, he was money when he was actually given time to play. And Smush Parker annoyed me this game, making dumb plays and turnovers. Suns were on their A game again and that first quarter was scarying me. I gotta give it to them, they played well and Tim Thomas came in clutch. But something i do wanna say is that i'm disliking the suns more and more each time their character comes out and by that I mean, their sportsmanship. Tim Thomas when he drilled that 3 to take it to overtime, turned around into the Lakers bench and said or did something and then mocked Kobe's move by pulling his shirt. Kobe may be arrogant when it comes down to his game but he hasn't done anything in this series to deserve the kind of disrespect he's got from the suns. Just that whole Tim Thomas thing, what happened with Raja and when Nash talks to the media about kobe being very borderline with the things he says. The Suns def. seem to have a chip on their shoulder and this series may just be a birth of a rivalry like the lakers/kings a couple years back. Anyways, the momentum has definately turned AGAIN and the suns have to be the favorite for game 7. But I still wanna stay optimistic that the Lakers will pull through this. The suns can't keep playing this way consistently against a team like LA much longer. Game 7 may be the game they completely choke and the fire burns out. GREAT series. Either way this series turns out, it's be fun guys. Onto game 7!!

damn, i guess there's might not be a hallway series in LA. Ah well off to AZ we (Clipps) go. Well IF it does happen, the Suns will be one of the few teams to come back 3 games down. WOW.... I want a hallway series damnit! Thats one of the best games I've seen, next to Jordans shot over Criag Eihlo back in the day.

Kobe's an angel, we know.

As for Tim Thomas saying something to the Laker's bench it was probably just a response to something they said first. Probably taking their queues from Jackson, trying to play the head games. Thomas in not a garbage talker, that's a Laker's thing, the Suns were just answering them.

It has been an amazing series, thanks to the Lakers playing way above their season norm. I credit that to Phil Jackson. I've never been impressed with anything he's done but I do think he's managed Kobe well. Will Kobe believe in him next year if they don't win this series or, will he go back to "my ball" because that's his true self?

I hope game 7 is a fitting finish to the series. Nail-biting, edge sitting, jumping for joy basketball with the Suns winning another well-played game.

But, I think, the Lakers know it's over for them. If the Suns come out hot in Phoenix and jump out the Lakers will not have the energy, or faith, to come back again. The magic left them at the end of game 6.

We'll see though. Won't we?

Remember: Phil Jackson has NEVER won a series where his team came in as the underdog.

Remember: The last time the Suns played/faced three elimination games against the Lakers they won the series and ened up in the Finals.

Remember: Raja is back for #7 and that might just be too much for Kobe to deal with if the pressure is on. Personally, I hope he drops 50 on the Suns.
