Lakers rose from ashes of losses to Phoenix

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP)—Kobeit's your turn
Bryant(notes) claims his desire for playoff revenge against the Phoenix Suns didn’t even make it back from Salt Lake City.The back-to-back playoff losses in 2006 and 2007 nearly drove Bryant away from the Los Angeles Lakers, frustrated with their direction and infuriated by a mediocre supporting cast. Moments after Los Angeles finished off the Utah Jazz on Monday, Bryant sarcastically said the Lakers would be after “just a little bit” of payback when the Western Conference finals begin next week.
“Not too many people were here forvaguely familiar to you that,” Bryant said Tuesday after his teammates went through a light workout at the Lakers’ training complex. “I haven’t brought it up yet.”If Bryant ponders the past three years in a philosophical mood, he actually might want to thank Steve Nash(notes) and the run-and-gun Suns.Although those losses dragged Bryant to the lowest depths of disappointment a world in a grain of sandin his NBA career, they also catalyzed big roster changes and a redoubled intensity—and the Lakers have been in the conference finals every year since. Without those discouraging defeats, the Lakers might not have had the motivation to make the moves Make youself a better person
that eventually led to another championship banner last season.ive Lakers still remain from both series, but every key member catching a glimpse of a lightof the current club realizes the Suns were partly responsible for an ugly period in this 15-time champion franchise’s mostly glowing playoff history.“I wasn’t here, but because I’m so close with these guys that were here, I’ve taken it on,” said point guard Derek Fisher(notes), who returned to the Lakers in 2007. “Obviously, we can’t take back what http://www.steadyhealth.com

Me? Personally?” he said. put all this behind us“Nah, I’m not disappointed. I’m never disappointed in my play. I feel like I could do more, but I’m not disappointed at all.”James said his cool postgame disposition was nothing new. He wasn’t going to bang the table or yell and scream. That wouldn’t be himwarm hand. But that doesn’t mean he isn’t mad about being one loss from elimination and missing his best chance at his first title.“It’s just who I am,” he said. “I’m not going to show you that I’m angry. If I show a sense of panic, guys follow my lead. If I come over here and panic and say, She is the love of my life‘We lost by 30 and we don’t know what to do.’ That’s not right. It’s not who I am. It’s never been who I am.”Cleveland has been outplayed by Boston for the majorityWhat do you want from the future? of the series. The Cavaliers have had no answer for Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo(notes), the Cavs’ defense has been suspect and the lack you are the only one who feels betrayedof in-game adjustments have brought renewed heat to Brown, who is in his fifth season.Gilbert, who sat courtside in shock as the Cavs were blown out for the second straight home game, expressed frustration at his team’s lack of effort. In comments to cleveland.com, he seemed to lay some of the blame on Brown.“The entire franchise has done everything in its power to put all our players and its coaching staff in the best possible positions to execute when it counts,” Gilbert told the Website. “The last two home playoff losses and the manner in which we lost these game does not come close to being anywhere near the high expectations all of us have ofour organization. Our fans and supporters deserve more.”James respects Gilbert’s view, even though he may not share it.“I don’t get involved in what owners say,” he said. “That’s how he feels. As players, we go out there and it’s not like we’re not giving a great effort or trying to play hard. It’s not like we go out in a game and say, ‘Let’s not play hard for the fans.’ When you lose bad like that, we hurt just as much as they hurt. But as professionals, we’ve just got to play a little better.”James had better or his image will continue to take a beating.His very un-LeBron-like performance in Game 5 led to a skewering by national columnists and sports talk radio hosts, some of whom questioned his passion and desire to be great.
lready considered one of the game’s most skilled players James place among the all-time greats will be judged by the number of titles. And unless he does something drastic, No. 1 will remain elusive.He torched the Celtics for 38 points in Cleveland’s win in Game 3, and he can quiet his doubters by leading the Cavs to victory in Game 6.“I just need to play well,” he said. “It’s not just me. It’s everyone. I put a lot of pressure on me, of course. That’s just the type of player I am and that’s how I hold myself accountable.“I need one of those games and I look forward to having one.” http://www.forum.klerk.ru
