I ran out of characters so i needed to send another reply.

Stopping the MAgic involves frustrating Howard and defending the 3. The Lakers are one of the best teams at defeding the 3 and we have plenty of 7 footers to halt Howard, which is the same formula you guys used. Not too complicated. You guys have done a good job on Vince and Jameer I admit, and I give you guys props for that. I'm glad we are playing you guys instead of the Magic so that it's actually a competition. Should be a fun series, we'll see how it goes. I would liek to continue this argument, feel free to comment back, just don't get so mad at my opinions.

Gasol will dominate KG because he can shoot over any defender, KG although has been healthy won't be able to keep up with Gasol all series. Gasol is very skillfull and makes great post moves, and can make passes in no space to give teammates open looks. On defense, Gasol is pretty mobile meaning he can move out of the key and still stay with his man, he doesn't get beat often. KG likes to take those 18 footers, and Gasol can get out there and block him. He did the same thing to Dirk in the regular season.


This is going to be so funny to watch. People just don't realize how good Gasol is. KG is going to have nightmares with him.

Pau will do well, no doubt.

Dominate though?

The season split Gasol had a 16 ppg ave vs Celtics front line ... i HARDLY call that dominating anything.

Did you see game 4? I think that was a perfect example of who's team it really is. It's not rondo's team. Who did the Celtics rely on late in the 4th when it was crunch time? Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. I don't think rondo ever touched the ball on offense besides bringing it up to the magic's half and giving it to someone in the 4th quarter and OT. Now I'm not going back and saying rondo sucks, I'm just saying realize that just because rondo has been a spark for the Celtics this season, doesn't mean it's his team.

Obviously Celtics are going to win this series, but the more games the Magic take them the better for the Lakers.

What happened, no response to my comments back? Although lakers game 4 against Suns didn't help my case, suns had a lot of help from the refs and I still think Lakers will win the championship

Well after 2 embarrasing performances by the lakers (minus Kobe and Fish) the series is not looking good. I actually started cheering for Celtics in the 4th quarter of game 5 because I was so disgusted by our play. The series isnt over yet since the series comes back to LA, but I'm not so sure about our chances any more. If we force a game 7 by the miracle that Lamar Odom shows up and Ron Artest keeps his stupidity to a minimum, it will be a hell of a game.

And now the Celtics put up a disgusting performance of their own. Nothing good to take from that game at all. Pretty sad for a potential Finals clinching game. It's amazing how differently some of the Lakers play at home and frustrating to see them turn it around like that.

I expected it to go 7 after the C's won game two so I'm not surprised at that, just at how the C's decided not to show up. I don't think it will happen again in game 7, which is going to be damn stressful. These are two true heavyweights and the league would have been cheated if the finals had been anything but Celtics vs. Lakers.

I'll also say that the refs have done a great job since the first two games. Those two whistle-fests were hard to watch but they've let them play since then and it's been a better series to watch because of it.

I don't think the refs have done a good job any game, and I will never believe they have truly done a good job untill they start calling carrying and traveling in the nba
