Bench - neither one is impressive. Although, Lakers have more talent but that talent tends to underperform.
Coach - Lakers
Lakers in 7

What? Only a slight edge at the SF? Paul Pierce is way better than Ron Artest...And if Bynum is still hurt Perkins is better. The Lakers have one good player off the bench, Odom, while the Celtics have many contributors(Wallace, Davis, Allen). Plus Kobe is going to be guarding Rondo a lot, which leaves Ray to be able to shoot over Fisher. KG is going to punish Gasol on D, guarantee it.

Best joke i've heard all week. Old man KG with the bum knee is gonna punish the most skilled big man in the league? Yea right. As long as the Lakers pass Gasol the ball the Lakers will win.
Boston in 6. Lakers didn't convince me against the Suns, Steve Nash dominated in every game and Kobe and Gasol, epspecially Gasol, were unimpressive for long periods of time.
[QUOTE="drStickman"]Boston in 6. Lakers didn't convince me against the Suns, Steve Nash dominated in every game and Kobe and Gasol, epspecially Gasol, were unimpressive for long periods of time. would that include the first couple where they lost by like 30 points? O.O
The Lakers are going to have to put Kobe on Rondo which will make him tired and wont be able to finish out games. That leaves Fisher on Ray, and ray has about 4 inches on Fisher which is enough space for Ray to knock down shots. I think the key matchup will be KG vs. Pau, 2 years ago KG manhandled Pau on both ends. But its 2010 and and KG aint exactly fresh, if KG can make Pau struggle and force him to shoot hard shots then the Celtics will win. Is anyone excited to witness the rondomonation?
[QUOTE="Lockedge"]LA Clippers. Because the Lakers and Celtics have won enough, they don't need any more championships given to them.Agent-Zero
They're gonna sign LeBron ;) Seriously Eric Gordon=All-star. in 2 years Gordon and Griffin will be one of the best inside-out combos in the league If the Clippers ever do better than the Lakers, there should be celebrations and partying in the streets. The ideal year in (north american)sports would have The Clippers taking the NBA title, Kansas City Royals or Pittsburgh Pirates taking the World Series(because while both have one or more championships in the past, their extreme level of suckitude in the past 2 decades makes me feel terrible for both teams), The Detroit Lions or Cleveland Browns winning the Superbowl would be nice. A team like Phoenix winning the Stanley Cup wold be good too. But I hope the CLippers do well. I don't even like Basketball all that much, but I hate seeing some teams just fail hard, even when they're trying.
