LOS ANGELES (AP) Tim Duncan had 26 points and nine rebounds, and the San Antonio Spurs pushed the Los Angeles Lakers to the brink of first-round playoff elimination with a 120-89 victory in Game 3 on Friday night, the worst home playoff loss in franchise history.
Tony Parker had 20 points and seven assists as the Spurs methodically seized control of the series by dominating their third straight meeting with the short-handed Lakers, who played without their top four guards due to injury.
Dwight Howard had 25 points and 11 rebounds, and Pau Gasol added his first career playoff triple-double with 11 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists, but the Spurs were far too much for a team without Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash. Andrew Goudelock scored a career-high 20 points in his first playoff start.

He didn’t play. The Los Angeles Rapers had to go do it without him.

They should amnesty Kobe with his age, even though I’m a fan of his. But the Lakers suck, so’s the Celtics. The Heat will still win the title. No one is gonna stop them.

Won’t take that long. The Lakers have never had more than two straight losing seasons since moving to LA in 1961. If Howard resigns it might take one or two years. If not maybe two to three. Might be time to think about life after Kobe though.

I only regret that Phil Jackson isn't their head coach.
Go Knicks.

I'll wager the Spurs are the ones to take this years title.
