Who would you prefer to see the Lakers face in the first round?

[djohn2oo8]

I would say the Rockets or Memphis, just to see which team could get the most ejections out of Bynum :lol

[Reck]

Forget ejections, Lakers wouldn't make it past the first round. :lol

Memphis. That would be a good series imo.

[HarlemHeat37]

Realistically,

1- Memphis
2- Houston
3- Dallas

Agree with this. I would love a MEM/LA or LA/DAL first round matchup.

Dallas would get fucked up, now MEM vs LA would be a epic series.

[DPG21920]

Don't think Dallas would get messed up. Dallas has a legit defense and Dirk can't be guarded by anyone on that team.

[HarlemHeat37]

Dallas would need Beaubois or Delonte to have a big series, tbh, + 2 of Carter/Kidd/Terry making 3s consistently, throughout the series..

[Mugen]

1. Memphis
2. Dallas


Rockets would have lost both games if Bynum hadn't been ejected. Doubt moobs would pull that shit in the playoffs, but ya never know....

[DPG21920]

Dallas wouldn't win likely but it would not be a pushover series.

Which is more then likely not to happen, Bynum & Gasol should dominate that series. Last year the Mavs were deep at the C spot with Chandler & Haywood, now they just got Haywood who's made out of glass & Mahimni. :lol

[DPG21920]

Brandon Wright is playing well ^

[Spurs da champs]

Brandon Wright is playing well ^

He's no center & he defiantly can't guard either Gasol or Bynum, he's too damn small.

[DPG21920]

There's a reason Dallas has one of the top 5 defenses in the league

Well that top 5 defense hasn't/wont helped them against the Lakers.
It's mostly scrub ass zone anyways.

[DPG21920]

They swept LA last year

[Venti Quattro]

If Odom decides to wake up from the coma he is in right now, the landscape of the playoffs will change.

[Spurs da champs]

They swept LA last year

They had Chandler last year & JJ barea (as well as Peja), last game they played Sessions made Kidd look like Fisher. This year's Mavs are not even close to being as good as last years.

[DPG21920]

Delonte >>>> Barea

Vince >>> Peja

Their defense is still great and they still have Dirk and besides Tyson, they didn't lose anything of note.

[Venti Quattro]

But Dallas' newly-acquired pieces imho are a collection of dysfunctional players. Delonte, Vince, and I don't even know where to begin with Lamar.

[DPG21920]

But while that has impacted their short-term ability to win regular season games (which before Delonte missed a big chunk they were winning pretty well), it hasn't hurt their fundamental strong suits (I.e. Dirk on offense and overall team defense).

Will you please tell me the lotto numbers since you have a crystal ball obviously. I know stats don't tell whole story, but Bynum was a -10 before he was ejected and result was 84:83 Rockets.

[Venti Quattro]

That's debatable, but it sure has been downgraded with the departure of Chandler. Haywood is just an overpaid fatass. Chandler was their anchor & fortifier last year.

Scola had a party down low after Bynum was ejected. Plus it took the life out of LA. He's so stupid though. He got ejected in both Rockets games.

Do you think he will be punished somehow by the Lakers?

crofl he's the main guy of the guy running the show.

Do you think he can pull shit like this if Jerry and Phil were still running the show? They'd have no problem benching his titty ass.

[DPG21920]

No doubt they are worse without Tyson; I'm not arguing otherwise. I'm saying their core principles are still in tact even if they are somewhat muted by losing Tyson.

Sure loss. Might as well not even show up.
