Pleasantly Suprised

I think out west, we'll be the best challenger for the lakers


On paper, talent wise and depth wise, they would be still a little better ( assuming ian is a little less than the savior...)

But our slightly superior chemistry, and execution could make the difference

And this TP , hill vs fisher, farmer match up kills lakers more than odom vs oberto/bonner, we create serious mismatches for them too

Lastly, I would really like to see Manu unleashed against "the machine" ... he coudn't wait to tear him up ( and the rest of the lakers players standing inadvertantly next to him..)

I'm somewhat impressed by kobe, but i really question if his body will be saved enough in this post-season despite the reduced minute this year...another irrational feeling...( not that i want kobe to be hurt even more than his pinkie..)
