this has no substance. I guarantee you that a major trade will upset the order of the west once mroe.
And its deff. going to be Utah or Phoenix
I wish the season would end today. Some damn good match ups in the West.
Lakers vs Jazz
Spews vs Mavericks
Rockets vs Nuggets
Portland vs Hornets
Even with Bynum out the Lakers look to be the best. I can see Mavericks knocking off the Spews. Rockets over Nuggets and if Portland gets going they could beat the Hornets. Some upsets in the first round a possibility.I would have never guessed the Suns would not make the playoffs. And wanting to trade Amare or anyone but Nash.

No doubt but it would be a good first round in West. I think the East is good but it probably won't be good until 2nd round.
The best thing about your post is how incredibly, obviously afraid of the Spurs you are.
4-1 without Bynum or a healthy Ariza. Yeah I'm sure he's shaking in his boots at the prospect of a Spurs/Lakres series.
How did that one turn out for ya?
4-1
1)at the OP's 'rational, objective, and completely unbiased' analysis.
2)at Laker fan from turning it into Spurs vs. Lakers, yet again.
Lakers
Spurs
Nuggets
Portland
Lakers
Spurs
Spurs
and so the bandwagoner speaks
houston wont even get past the nuggets
enjoy another first round exit![]()
Lakers are unbeatable to most of the western teams including spurs, except suns that owns Shaq who always Kobe feel disgusted every time they meet.
i think we would beat Portland in a 7 game series. Chandler will hold his own against Oden, Paul will abuse their PGs and Dwest always outperforms Aldridge. If we limit Roy, then we will win easily.
e ally if sean marks is getting 18 points![]()
He's our secret weapon. He's our Robert Horry, James Posey even though we have James Posey.
And the spurs will be resting their big three once more when Lakers beat the out of em'.![]()
I dont like the NO vs Portland matchup, neither deserves to be in the second round.
I'd love to play Portland, that would be an easy 4-0, 4-1 series for us.
I will say this.
If Andrew Bynum is able to come back at 80-90% of what he was before he went down there is not a team in the WC that will beat them in a 7 game series.
Except the Spurs
not w/o a couple significant additions before the trade deadline. LA is too big and deep for SA right now
Its hard to say about the Spurs. I think they are slightly better than last year's team, especially with Mason around. I don't know how Bonner is gonna much about against their bigs. Also, will Manu be healthy this time around? Its easy to rule out the Spurs, but they execute so well in pressure situations they can compete with anyone. They can't afford to blow big leads like they did in Games 1 and 5. I think they can win at least two games this time around, but the Lakers still have the edge in my opinion.
The Spur's problem against the Lakers is they don't really have the personnel to stop the Laker's frontcourt attack. The Lakers have shown in the two regular season games that they can get a lot of easy pts in the paint. The Spurs were relegated to mostly jump shots.
I don't know about you but I'll take the team that's scoring easy pts in the paint over the team that has to hit jumpshots any day of the week in a 7 game series.
and the rockets favorite team the jazz elmianates the rockets once again but at least we got to the lakers![]()
I'm really not concerned about the Lakers frontline, Gasol specifically. I'm more concerned about our players staying healthy. We'll talk about matchups when and if we get there. But I like the Spurs chances against any team when they're all healthy...
