You think Garnett hit Howard for spacing, they send a message folks. Once Garnett does that to gasol he will have little mincy faggot balls

Kobe isn't LBJ or Dwight...he is a winner.

Revenge factor, HC this time, better D...they will easily play better D than they have all playoffs...Gasol and Kobe are 10 times better together now than 2 years ago... they won't fall apart in any game, but I don't see any blowouts either way >20 pts.

Has any team won 3 consecutive series without homecourt ending in a Finals win?

and no, NY in 99 doesn't count for that shit-shortened season as 8th seed to get to the Finals.

lakers didint have bynum too in 2008

**BigDaddy** · 05-28-10, 11:01 PM

**dynamite140** · 05-28-10, 11:03 PM

Lakers will win this time.

**tanner40** · 05-28-10, 11:04 PM

If Phoenix wins tomorrow it will be big for Boston. They will be nice and rested by the time game one rolls around

Artest wasn't in 2008 for D, LA 2008 team was a lot worse.

I agree. That is if Phoenix doesn't shock everyone. But if it's Lakers/Boston, which you know the league wants, you know that Kobe is probably still seething from 2008 finals. I think Artest can be physical with Pierce to where Paul will be whining so much to the officials it will throw him off. If Odom plays like he can Celtics can't match up with him. But you never know what you will get with Odom. Jackson won't let the Lakers be unprepared from the outset like Orlando was. Had Orlando been mentally ready from the outset of the series I think there would have been a game 7 or maybe even Orlando winning in 6. You can't wait till you are down 3-0 to get competitive. There is a major difference between the leadership of Kobe Bryant compared to Vince Carter or Dwight Howard. Kobe has that assassin's mentality that all the great ones have.

**playa420** · 05-28-10, 11:10 PM

lakes vs celtics is gonna be an epic finals.Im gonna go with the celtics, beating king james and the cavs, and dwight and the magic is some impressive shit.The lakers road to the finals has been way easier and theyve stumbled a couple of times

**blackbox** · 05-28-10, 11:11 PM

To bad LA has home court advantage,or Boston would be right there.

**SHADYLANKY** · 05-28-10, 11:13 PM

Rondo is so much better now I think Bos gives them all kinds of problems. If the Odom plays to his potential (????) and Gasol plays well then it should be a great series to watch. If Bynum can't do much and Odom doesn't show I think Bos has great chance of taking down LA. This is assuming that LA takes down PHX.

cause boston was so awful when playing the magic on the road

**kobefanatic** · 05-28-10, 11:25 PM

i'm not that confident in LA now, although i will root for them ALL the WAY

**big time 3** · 05-28-10, 11:35 PM

celtics will roll, wait and c!!!!

**jlgarciaiii22** · 05-28-10, 11:45 PM

I take it your All in on Boston was a All in on the Magic

**PAULYPOKER** · 05-29-10, 12:00 AM

The only chance of the Boston boys losing the finals is if they face the Suns

**TheJer** · 05-29-10, 12:07 AM

I will stick with boston in the finals.

**ThaTopMoron** · 05-29-10, 12:14 AM

the thing is, Boston has worn themselves out they had a tough road going thru #1 and 2 w/out HC.

LA has taken it easy, guys executing, shooting good, rebounding to win at home. they didn't give half a shit playing on the road vs OKC, and vs PHX they just tried to go out and outshoot them again like at home. yeah, didn't work but they never fell apart...went back home, shot badly but still did the intangibles to eek out the win. now they are due for the big closeout game on the road just like last year.

and sweeping the jazz didn't even take 4 dominant performances...the jazz just have that inferior complex to LA they fold late after always being right there.

the Lakers have yet to show their best yet, saving it for the Finals for a reason.

**mundane** · 05-29-10, 12:16 AM

im edgar casey jr. ill give u a gift - lakers in 6!

Artest D is not as good as people think

Pierce vs Artest, I take Pierce offense over Artest any day

One more thing, Artest is the dumbest player in the finals

Rondo over Fisher
Perkins over Bynum
Kobe slight edge over Allen
KG vs Gasol, slight edge to Gasol
Pierce over Artest

Celtics bench over LAL

Celtics have great players and play the right way, half court offense and defense
LAL have great players but they have no identity, I am sure the C's will force their style of play on LAL

Phil Jackson is the most overrated coach in the history of professional sports

Celtics play smart, LAL sometimes I wonder what the **** they are doing.

Remind me again how many times a team made it to the finals that had a better road record than home record?

WOW!!! the Suns are are sucking the life right out of the Lake show,, Kobe has played how many full games with no rest now? While Nash is sleeping on the bench,, with that said the Lakers are still fighting for their playoff lives........................

My question is did you even watch the games??

Just remember this much> the Suns now know they can win at the Staples Center because if the lake show wouldn't have got that lucky game ending basket the series would be 3-2 Suns because the rested leader Nash was to perfection both shooting and commanding his soldiers with nothing but win in his sights only to be robbed by the luck factor

**jboy4** · 05-29-10, 12:25 AM

No way would I bet against the Celtics.
