And Then There Were Two

The haters want to say we can't get the job done.

The haters want to say there's no way we can win two games in THEIR house to win this thing.

The haters want to say our win on Sunday was "ugly" and "lucky" and that if we play that kind of game in Boston, there's no chance in hell.

Derek Fisher got asked after Game 3 about winning ugly. Fish told the press, "My three championship rings don't list my field goal percentage - they only say World Champion." Let's go out and give him a chance to get one more that says the same thing.

Kevin Garnett said after Game 4 that he could "taste" the championship. The only thing I want KG to taste after tonight is the bitter taste of adrenaline as he realizes they're one game away from losing it all.

They want us to give up. They want our heads hanging low. They want us to believe there's no way we can go into someone else's arena and take two must-wins in a row.

The Lakers won 27 games on the road in the regular season.

Let's take a closer look:
In November, a two game winning streak on the road.
In December, a three game winning streak and a two game winning streak on the road.
In January, a three game winning streak on the road.
In February, a three game winning streak and a SEVEN game winning streak on the road.
In March, a three game winning streak on the road.
In April, a three game winning streak on the road.

Every month of the regular season, the Lakers have faced this simple task time and again and got the job done.

So, again I say... two more wins on the road to win it all?

Ain't no thang, bitches.

You gotta believe, baby. You gotta believe.
