Barring Injury Lakers will last 5 vs Spurs, Spurs are deep, and will be a match up for the Lakers size.

I don't get why Deadly continues to massively underrate the Spurs' frontline while at the same time respecting OKC's, a team who has an offensively challenged 4 and 5 whose defensive presence is highly overrated (Ibaka is merely a weakside help defender who farms blocks, not a paint anchor; and neither is Perkins). If Duncan plays anything like he's been playing lately, he'll essentially cancel out Gasol in a playoff series (I don't give a what his numbers against Gasol were last year), and if Splitter can give the Spurs 8-10 points against the Lakers' second unit bigs, who are all hot trash, that'll be more than enough room to work with. The Spurs' perimeter will outscore their Lakers' counterpart, whose only capable scorers are a streaky Bryant and Ramon "the Savior" Sessions, by a wide margin.
You wouldn't bet me![]()
but we finally have a real PG

Why are you guys worried about LA's size? The Lakers biggest weakness still hasn;t been addressed yet. I'm not sold on their bench. Barnes is good, but Blake, Murphy and Goudelock are big question marks in the playoffs.
Name the amount, we'll have kori mediate right now. As soon as you paypal it to her i'll do the same and she'll confirm.
ed with the wrong guy
Lakers crappy 3pt shooting will be their undoing. The Lakers are big sure, but it is hard to operate with people sagging so deep in the paint. You can't throw it out of the post because you know that they will just throw up a brick.
Spurs give major minutes to bonner and blair, and also rely on scrubs like danny green for major contributions. We rely on kobe, gasol, bynum, and artest (for defense). U needed all-world games from green and blair to win last night
You also suck defensively![]()
Offering to bet is ing with someone?
What's the bet? Spurs and Lakers in the playoffs? So the bet is negated if they don meet? You're on, YOU name the amount, friend. What can you afford to lose?![]()
Spurs are nowhere near the same team as last year. Splitter wasn't a key part of the rotation, and in addition to their thin frontline, the Spurs desperately needed depth and a defensive presence at the small forward, which they added with Leonard and Jackson.
Your frontline (which was better last year) was supposed to carry you over Dallas. But since the perimeter couldn't guard a chair, Dallas terrorized the Lakers on the outside and penetrated at will (JJ Barea).
Ramon "the Savior" Sessions still doesn't solve the problems the Lakers have with quick guards.
That said, I think it's a relatively even matchup and the winner will be decided on whose roster "nuts up" more. I can see Manu and Gasol having prominent impacts or bleeding vaginas. I can see Sessions becoming an unlikely hero or a total goat. I can see Duncan putting up one last great run or struggling with the Lakers size. I can see Bryant averaging 28+ on a good percentage or going Detroit '04.
Because he'll say he'll bet 1000, just to get out of betting.:
Bonner and Blair won't get major minutes if that series should happen.
Andbeing a good defender anymore. The only player he can guard at a high level anymore is an equally slow Paul Pierce.
Z-bo ready to tap that ass again if Spurs fall to #3 and Grizz stay at 5
That's not your concern. Paypal whatever amount he says & kori will get it back to you. Unless you're scared..
$500, will send it to kori when i get back from the tourney tonight, deal?
1k a little too rich for your blood?![]()
I want to watch how things develop but I'd be interested in betting you DD.
Worked for Dallas
And no, the Spurs "don't live and die by the 3." They rank 12th in 3 point attempts. They look to penetrate or to the post first, and because of that, often get wide open looks outside.
You're on. I'm depositing mine 1st of the month though.
