    You beg to differ that regular season success over an opponent guarantees the same in the playoffs, especially the finals?


    I should have emphasized the finals in my post but regular season success is still no guarantee in the playoffs.

    The 2007 Cavs.
    the 07 Cavs had more heart and toughness than this year's Lakers. This year's Lakers are just a bunch of soft pussies

    If this year's Lakers had the same lack of heart but also had the lack of talent the 2007 Cavs had they would have missed the playoffs.

    But on the flip side if they had the same amount of heart as that team they'd win it all.

    Houston is winning with defense.

    Denver beat Dallas by outscoring them.

    You don't wanna try and outscore LA, it just isn't gonna happen 4/7 times. Say what you will about their defense but their offense is stacked and balanced.

    That's why Cleveland has the best shot to beat LA.

    the 07 Cavs are to Rudy, as the 09 Lakers are to Judge Smails from Caddyshack

    But regular season record still doesn't matter.
    It doesn't matter unless you look at how GS beat Dallas in the regular season. Apparently, Avery didn't.
    I knew we were doomed the minute I knew we had GS in the playoff.

    IMO Avery did and he overreacted to it, so he inserted Devon George into the starting lineup at center. Charles Barkley said it best, don't change the lineup that won you 67 games and got you here.

    I still think Avery is a good coach but he will always take plenty of well-deserved blame for that series.

    They are clearly not dependent on an Asian. They're 2-1 against LA w/o this Asian you speak of

    AJ and Terry Porter went through the same unfair firing.....they both had a team of player who got them fired because they didn't like being held accountable for shot selection and defense.

    His coaching was HORRIBLE in the series against GS.

    He was never really good at making adjustments either. I don't think he's a bad coach, but he wore out his welcome. I'm sure he will learn from the experience and come back one day as a very good coach.

    Carlisle actually did a of a job. The team had a lot of different issues to deal with, including quite a few injuries, and a pretty mediocre team aside from Dirk, and still got them to 50 wins, a 6th seed, and the 2nd round. He did a damn good job overall.

    regular season doesnt mean much in the playoffs. playoffs is all about who wants it more. the lakers clearly dont have the kind of focus that the Cavs have. and all laker fans do is make excuses, saying they play down to compe ione, etc...

    lakers will most likely win game 7, but so far they clearly do not seem have the heart of a champion.

    Funnily enough, this what everyone keeps telling Laker fans this year as well. When will you people actually understand basketball? A healthy Lakers team is repeating. Mark my ing words.

    It's bumpable if they beat Boston/Orlando..they haven't really done anything yet, I'm pretty sure everybody that follows the NBA picked them to win the West..
