i hope it's sarcasm from the OP.:biggums:
The Lakers won't get past the second round for the third consecutive year. Bookmark it.
Still giving up to many easy baskets.
Have to beat a couple of proven teams.
[QUOTE=cotdt]There seems to be a consensus on this thread that Lakers might not even be able to make it to the Finals, and I agree that it will be very tough for the Lakers to get to the Finals. But if it happens, the Lakers match up well against the Heat. Kobe and Howard will beat Lebron silly.[/QUOTE]
nah more like howard and pau will beat miami silly. if they meet in the finals lakers will be a tough match up for miami. memphis and lakers are the toughest match ups i believe. hopefully it's okc that makes it to the western finals lol.
How did OKC make it out the west last year when the Lakers and SA had a better frontline? Teams find ways to adjust. Don't know why people fail to realize that.
Not only did I bet $5,000 that the Lakers will win the championship; I'll leave this forum in shame if LA does not make the finals this season.
Straight up, book mark this page. Since July I've said the Lakers at their best are BY FAR the best and most complete team in this league. If they are healthy come June, I believe they will annihilate everyone Miami included.
Cocky much?
Watch and see boys.

Money!
As it stands, Heat are the favorite, but IMO I'm more worried about teams in the West than I am about the Heat.

OKC had Ibaka, Perkins, Collision. They had plenty of size for defense and rebounding against LA and SA. They just don't have offensive bigs.

Yup
Dwight>>>Bosh
Gasol>>>>>Battier
Artest<<<<<<Bron
Kobe>>>>>>>>Wade
Nash>>>>>>>Chalmers
Jordan Hill>Haslem
Jamison<Allen
Meeks<Lewis
Lakers will win the championship if they play up to their potential. It's that simple. There's no team in the league with their combination of star power and [i]balance[/i] on the basketball court. The only other team that compares in talent(Miami) has a starting front line of Bosh and Battier.
