so is this the "official" series thread????....if so this is my post taken from the lakers forum http://msn.foxsports.com/nba/story/8217566?MSNHPHMA ^^^this article kinda sums up why I'm picking the celts in 7..........but these or my thoughts on game one (since I know you'll care about them so much) The Celtics KG = will have a field day regardless of his inability to post up.... Pierce = he'll be fine....and I had no problem with the wheelchair moment, dude was just taking precaution....he even admitted he was a little embarrased himself Allen = the main difference between the celtics in the first 2 series, and the series against the Pistons....when he's on the Celts are a totally different team...and imo I think the Kobe hatred will work in the Celts favor, because Ray takes it personally and therefore will bring "it" everynight Sam I Am = still has some magic left........sure he'll take some bad shots, but he did the same thing with the greatest big man of our modern era when he was a ROOKIE!!!....in the end the good outweighs the bad with Sammy Perkins = would've been crucified if Pierce was done for the year Rondo = an all around solid performance Posey = people forget how great a defender this guy is....he's a smart, physical, long, and quick veteran defender P.J. Brown = this old man keeps ****ing shit up for folk Doc Rivers = pretty good job in game one (surprisingly), needs to post KG up more though The Lakers Kobe = will be fine, BUT dude needs to get to the rack....game one looked very tmac-esque with all those damn fall away jumpers he was taking. Celtics will happily look at him shooting contested fadeway jumpers, and not getting in the lane getting folks in foul trouble and others involved Odom = this dude continues to piss me off...so talented yet so damn mentally soft Pau = did this dude score a bucket by his own damn self? I mean every bucket he hit was, because of kobe....and can we please grab a rebound““? Fisher = played great, lakers will be in good shape if they can get that kind of production every night from D. Fish The Bench = Phil should've played them more, but at the same time I think some have kinda overrated the bench. Luke Walton just flat out sucks. Farmar can be good depending on the night. Sasha is the most reliable and dude ain't afraid of the moment. Turiaf is a hustle guy. Ariza can be a factor, but I don't think he's healthy right now. Mbenga should retire. I mean there is no true "6th man" off their bench........ Phil = should use bench more
Celtic fan here! Obviously im going with the Celtics.. but, I think id be allright if the Lakers win. Kobe's just amazing and I like Sun Yue just because he's Chinese and left-handed! hahaha But then Vujajic is just too cocky with nothing to be cocky about!
