It was a good game. The officiating wasn't good as both teams got some bad calls. In the end though, the Lakers lost cause Pau and Odom didn't play well. Bynum played a strong 2nd half. Kobe seemed to try to force too many shots when he should've trusted his teammates more. Wade pretty much locked him down on 1 on 1 iso plays. Lebron was not impressive. He seemed a bit lackluster. Bosh played really well. I guess he really wanted the ball in the post cause they were feeding him all night down there.

Wade did a great defensive job on Kobe in the second half. Interesting to hear Charles Barkley say what I mentioned previously regarding Wade and Lebron, I think Wade needs to play the closer role and have Lebron feed off him on the receiving end. It would give the Heat offense, particularly late in games, some MUCH needed continuity.
really? lebron and wade where both hacked repeatedly in the last 5 minutes of the game. kobe arguably got his arm hit when wade went for the ball, but lebron never touched him or the ball.
as for the goal tending no call, dont know what play you where watching but the only close one i saw had pau gasol grabbing the rim while the ball was rolling around it thus defensive goal tending would be in order.
lakers fans always pull the ol "refs screwed us" if they dont pull the "its only a regular season game it doesnt mater" bull when they lose.
Wade outplayed Kobe in the closing minutes of the game, if I were a Heat fan, I would hope that the coach/team takes notice of that. They won because the ball was where it should be at the end of the game - in Wades hands.
