So Goat, you had the nice long writeup, but didn't make a prediction!
Or did I miss it? Who do you like and in how many games?

Pretty much, yeah, but he didn't say it! And he gave the Celts edges in a bunch of places, so that made me unsure. After such a lengthy writeup, I just figured the guy would say "... so after all that, I think it's ____ in __ games."

Goat, you're write up is okay I won't argue with that but how come you're laying the -5.5 when you say "Kobe will hit 1 or 2 game winning shots?" Especially if you think the Lakers take it in 5 that means you're predicting a couple close games. I know that who's home and everything comes into play but Boston is one of the best road teams in the league.

Why do you need his prediction?
His analysis for the most part is on point. I agree with almost all of it. With that anaylsis, you can your own picks. Goat doesn't suscribe to the "post a play -> tail -> wash,rinse,repeat" idea.

Well, one reason I need it is that I found his analysis confusing. Not to be disrespectful, but it wasn't written very "professionally" (I'm not saying it wasn't detailed or well-observed, just that due to grammatical errors and such, I could not consistently follow his flow or his line of reasoning -- it was jumbled)...
So while it more or less sounded like he leaned Lakers, I am not at all certain of that! So I was curious!

Jackson’s game by game adjustments will make Rivers’ head spin. Scoring the coaches and their styles of court side manners, the advantage goes to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Sorry I wrote that whole thing in like 30 minutes in the message box. If you wanted a professional analysis I could have sent you my notes which are about 30 microsoft word pages of notes from the 08 series but that would confuse the shit out of you

I was wrong Goat, I read it to quick the first time and thought I read, "I bet like LB, Lakers in 5" just some miscomprehension on my part.
Apologies.

Okay Goat, you've written up and talked alot about game 1/the series. You made a thread stating that Boston loses game 1. What's your opinion on the LA-5.5?
You can lay everything on the table but in the end it means nothing if you aren't making the plays.

I'm not arguing with you, I'm just posting your perspective as well as Donaghy's and made no comments about it. Everyone wants all the info possible so I'm just laying it out
