In all that happiness we cant forget about the Kings or the Wolves. They've both played brilliantly in the season, and they are still a serious challenge. Who would you prefer to go against us or who do u think is more likely to get into the finals. And what about the eastern side? Whos the favourite? In my opinion its gonna be Timberwolves-Lakers=Lakers and Pacers-Nets=Pacers
I'd love to see another Kings Lakers series it brings out the best in both teams and there is always a high level of excitment when these two teams play.It also always fun to see playoff rivalries.

Kobe is gonna flex and point at his muscle again at the Continental Airlines Arena. :thumbsup:
I would like to see another Kings/Lakers series. Partially because a series between them is always as entertaining as it can come. They always put on a heck of a show. Plus, I also feel more confident that the Lakers can beat the Kings. Not that I don't think they can beat the TWolves, which, I do believe they can do. I just think they stand a better chance against the Kings. Partially cause they have home court, which is something they won't have against the TWolves. Plus, despite the fact that they have two solid centers down in Sac-town, neither of them can guard Shaq. The only match-ups that worry me about a Kings/Lakers series would be Payton/Bibby and Peja/George(Fox). But, the way Payton played defense and the way the Lakers played overall on defense in the last 4 games, I really am not worried at all about that. So, actually, overall, I could care less on who they play. I think they can beat either team they go up against. So, whoever it is, bring it on.
Hopefully, they'll go up against the T-Wolves. They've played great so far and are hungry for it dis year. In the finals, the only team that actually stands a chance against the Lakers are the Pacers. Artest can shut down Kobe (who plays more physical D than Bowen), KG will tear up Malone and Shaq isn't the same as he used to be
I really don't enjoy watching the Wolves that much to be honest. I've always loved the Lakers vs. Kings matchup though, and I'd love to see it happen again this season. Plus if Sacramento made it to the WCF that means the Lakers will have atleast 4 more days of rest than the Kings because the Kings need a game 7 to get there.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting NikeHoops3:</div><div class="quote_post">KG will tear up Malone</div> In the last game against the T-Wolves, Malone handled KG and then some. No one poses a threat to the Lakers at this point. Even Peja has been reduced to a shell of his former self. The Lakers are peaking at the perfect time. But I'd prefer to take on the Kings, to send them back home without a ring once again.
I'd like to see the TWolves and Lakers go at it. The top two seeds in the West battling it out for a shot at the title. I'm a KG fan, and I'd like to see him silence his critics for his years of being a playoff bust. The Lakers vs. Kings is always exciting to watch, but I'd like to see something different this year. The Lakers beating the best team in the West and the league MVP would make it that much sweeter if they go on to win the title.
^^ i agree....I would also like to see KG Sam and Spree battle it out against the Lakers and hopefully go to 7 games with them....but the Lakers are rolling rite now so itll be a difficult task to stop em, no matter iof the Kings or Wolves win....
I would love to see them go and beat the Queens. But I think the Twolves can beat the Kings, they are young but quite dangerous.
I Gotta go with The Kings And Lakers!! Whenever These 2 Teams go at it,Really good Ball Is played by both teams!!
As of right now, it looks like we are going to have to wait a bit longer...the kings are putting a whuppin on the wolves.... I'd rather play the wolves just because they are less of a threat IMO...

I like the Wolves matchup too. Just to see another group face the Lakers in this western conference finals and I'm just pulling for the Wolves to beat Sac.

I would love to see the Twolves and Lakers do battle. The battle of the #1 seeded team in the Western Conference, the league MVP Kevin Garnett, why not? It'll be an excellent matchup. Even though I'd love to see our arch-rival Sacramento Queens go at it again, it's time for a change. And new competition.
Queens-Lakers. Primary reason being the Lakers will have home court advantage. Besides, what better opportunity for the Lakers to put the Queens in their place......again.
