    There's "can't hold" and then there's "lose by 35."

    Put LeBron on the 2007 blazers and we're looking at ring number 4 or 5.

    Why can't we find a guy like Danny Green in the 2nd round?

    I'll say this, Portland still has the best starting five outside of San Antonio, in the west. Nothing else, but it does have the best
    starting five. Give me a 50 bucks if I am wrong.

    He would be a fine coach for the Lakers. Kobe would probably like him. And that's what matters.

    They don't need a coach. They need a team.

    It wont take long till the Lakers get back into the playoff hunt. Lets stop kidding ourselves. If I'm a betting man I would bet that Kobe will get one more good shot at his 7th ring and maybe even two more.

    Kobe should probably work on getting his 6th ring first.

    Until then, stop kidding yourself about Kobe having 6 rings.

    It seems like their first 6 games, the Spurs were just going through the motions. Starting Game 7 Round 1 they turned it up multi notches (except the Game 4 in Portland, which they could afford to lose). They've just been blowing everyone away. What the hell is in the water in San Antonio, Fountain of Youth?

    Meanwhile, the one team I could still really root for, the Pacers, look to be in trouble, surrendering home court in Game 2 and losing players to injury. Spurs/Heat again? So much for conspiracy theories; Heat/Thunder or for that matter Blazers/Heat would have gotten better ratings.

    Boozer looks to be on the way out? Is he affordable for us?

    What about Lee? Lowered asking price, I heard.
