Re: 2nd Round: LAL vs. UTAH/DEN I really don't care who we face. Ideally, I'd prefer Utah, since they're without two very key players in Okur and AK. However, the Nuggets have no Nene, who is just as important. Either way you look at it, we're going to have another pretty significant size advantage, especially against the Jazz since they have two PFs who run about 6'7".
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) We made it out of a tough first round, I'm proud of the season already.
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) Just checked out how we did with them last year. Beat 'em 4-1, damn.
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) This isn't last year. How did we do against them this year ;]
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) I picked lakers in 6, but i think they could win it in 5 if they keep on playing like this... heard deron might have strained his elbow... OT: As for the WCF, IF and WHEN we make it there, i think i prefer the suns over the spurs... why? coz were already real good on the defensive end... and playing the suns could give us a window to re-polish our offensive sets LOL
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) I think I prefer the Spurs, IDK why though. I just feel comfortable with Drew matching up with Duncan. He always brings his A+ game against Duncan. I don't know what it is about the Suns, but that high powered offense kind of scares me...especially with all the nagging injuries this team has and how streaky our shooting can be.
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) It's going to be either in 6 or 7 games. A hard fight for this Lakers team, Deron and Boozer have been animals against Denver and they're the biggest threats against us too, as no one can guard Deron and we also find it hard to defend Boozer. Though I believe we will make it to Western Conference finals (Against Spurs please )
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) Thats exactly why i prefer the suns... because to beat them, we have to rediscover our offense... If we do that, and maintain our defense... then we have a chance to win it all. If we play the spurs, we might suck even more on the offensive end with how hard the spurs play
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) I rhink we would roll the suns. bynum and gasol would tear their frontcourt to shreds, and ho's going to defend kobe, jason richardson? please, i would much rather have suns than spurs. spurs know how to win, suns do not.
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) Yeah I agree with you, though we'd beat both of them. But Suns have nothing against us, besides Nash who is not 100% at the moment. JRich killed Portland but cmon, what the hell will he do against Artest/Kobe. We could handle Amare down low also and he's not so good on the defensive end. Spurs however can suprise us, as G.Hill is a hero these playoffs,him and parker could really give us something to think about. But both of those series will end in 6 games. Actually I'd rather have Suns than Utah against us.
Re: 2nd Round: Lakers vs. Jazz (Best of 7) w00000ttt lakers blow the lead with odom jacking up dumb fucking shots
