Why is this in the Laker forum? But, ya i do hope the Cavs win. I hate both the Suns, Pistons, and Spurs. So i din't really care who won. I want to see a Cavs- Spurs. (LeBron dunk over Timmy).
I like the Spurs, so I have no problem with them winning again. LeBron had his chances against the Pistons, if he doesn't win that series that's on him. That said, I do respect LeBron though and expect him to win a few championships eventually.
I'm hoping the Pistons win their series, due to the fact that they have endured injustice from the NBA when they overlooked the Kobe-like arm followthrough that slapped Webber in the face by LBJ. I can't help but lose respect for both Lebron and the NBA from stuff like this.

I'm a Kobe fan and everything but one needs to be pragmatic.

Lebron on the other hand did not get the suspension which he deserves if the NBA is making an example of Kobe for that followthrough that result in the shooter hitting the defender in the face is unacceptable and if done a suspension will follow and most likely a $$$ fine. Everyone in the League knows it, including Lebron. So if he knows that what will happen, why did he do it? Most people have come to the conclussion, ruling against Kobe, that this is not "natural" but rather is retaliatory. Lebron probably knows that the league won't touch him because they want to make him the face of the NBA and because they don't want to ***** up ratings if he were to be suspended. That's where I lose respect.

Oh I can't wait to here it. People will talk about it until Kobe graces the court again, kind of like last season with Wade.
Being in the East helps alot, that's why people haven't made a big deal about it. The Pistons have been playing terribly anyway, it just shows what a defensive player like Ben Wallace does for your team. This is why we need Jermaine O'Neal.
<div class="quote_poster">YourNewChef Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Let the "Lebron owns Kobe" bandwagon begin!</div> I hope not because everyone knows that Kobe would own Lebron in a game of one on one!! Kobe is cool!!
