The dynasty was basically killed by JJ Barea and some 3 point specialists shooting wide open 3s.

The players quit on their hall of fame coach in his last game.

Kobe disappears in the 2nd half

Then the "star" center gives a cheap shot to the smallest player on the court

Way to go out with pride

yes.

/thanksjesusitsnotthespursanymore

The dynasty was killed by whatever the hell was going on in the locker room. It really is like the Cleveland situation last year.

Yeah I bet odom and Bynum were laughing it up in the locker room. Way to act like a champion

60s Celtics ended by the Lakers/Knicks
80s Celtics ended by champion Pistons
80s Lakers ended by the AIDS
Bulls ended by retirement
Spurs ended by WC champion Lakers

Kobe dynasty ended by Dirk and a bunch of spares

I wonder how much heat Kobe takes in comparison to LeBron last year? Especially considering he was far worse than LeBron, yet still got swept with a far better team surrounding him.

Kobe vs. Dallas:
23.3 ppg
2.5 apg
3.0 rpg
.3 bpg
1.8 spg

LeBron vs. Boston:
26.8 ppg
7.2 apg
9.3 rpg
1.3 bpg
2.2 spg

My guess is he doesn't get anywhere near the criticism, even though he deserves it far more.

Bad end, but it wasn't nearly as bad as the last Lakers dynasty where the Kobe/Shaq cat fight allowed them to lose to a Detroit Pistons team with no HOF'er.

lolwhut? LeBron was the MVP last year and his team had the best record in the league.

Ranks right "down" there with the Pistons '91 walkoff in Game 4 of the East finals against Chicago.

Pathetic display by the Lakers today.

Lol at these Mavs being better than the 04 Pistons. This is a team that was the hot pick to lose in the first round. Only Dirk would get significant minutes on that team

no question to the OP. embarrassed in every way possible.

Can't get over how much Laker hate there is. This board is like catharsis central.

Dallas played their asses off and had an NBA record-setting series and final game shooting the basketball. This series was far more about Dallas playing extremely well than the Lakers playing like crap. This series was one shot and one final-two-minute choke away from being 2-2 right now. Of course no one will remember this.
