Congrats Lakers

Suns just can't stop you and the Celtics don't have enough fire power. When will the parade be?

Dunno but lakaluva is already buying his "outfit" for it

I actually watched a few games from the 2008 finals recently..Things that stuck out to me were...
1. Paul Pierce was getting to the rim at will most of the time. Pretty funny that Radmona & Luke Walton were guarding Pierce a lot lmao...Now LA has a thugga Ron to throw his 260lb frame at him.
2. Posey hit a lot of timely three's & defended Kobe very well. Kobe usually has a tougher time when being guarded by longer players.
3. Eddie house also hit a lot of timely three's & was great energy off the bench.
4. PJ Brown was a great veteran coming off the bench & also helped a lot.
5. Leon Powe almost beat LA in one of the games by himself hahaha he kept attacking the rim like a motha er & went to the line like 50 times in one game haha.
6. Pau Gasol's offensive skills are even more ridiculous now & he doesnt play as soft anymore.
7. Bynum not anchoring the paint made it a of a lot easier for Boston to get easy buckets.

Only difference I see for Boston is that Rondo is a lot better now. The celtics also still play great team defense but KG, Pierce & Allen looked much quicker 2 years ago.

Lakers may win this series, but it wont be because Glassnum is there.

Sam Cassell's also not there anymore. He also killed the Lakers with timely hits. I wish we got Leon Powe during the free agent season last year. That would make Bynum ABSOLUTELY tradeable.

I'd say that Big Baby and Perkins are better players now than then.

you forget the juicy-saturated Doc Rivers scene, bullfan1000.

Lakers aren't as good a 3-point shooting team now. Kobe and Fisher both had down seasons, Farmar was Farmar, and Vujacic had a great season then. They miss that part of their offense. Whether the tradeoff for a much better defense is worth it remains to be seen.
