Do the Lakers have the easiest road to the Finals?

Both those games were in final minute though that could've gone either way, and Jameer was big in both.

Dont think magic could beat lakers

cleveland can though, and will!

Don't know about the last part of that last part, but the Magic have still put on some pretty strong performances in the absence of some key players this year. They're a darkhorse no doubt, but a dangerous one IMO.

Agreed, I hope Magic dont get to the finals more than anything. Their combo of Howard and 3pt shooters is our ether.

Yeah, the Cavs are the easier match up no doubt. Though Nelson being out helps a lot cause he really killed us in those two game this year but still I think the Cavs are better for us.

It's a down year with too many teams racked by freakish injuries. History will not be kind to whoever wins this year. *Placeholder Champions*

Denver is scoring mad crazy, I think lakers will have their hands full with the Nuggets.

Cleveland will beat the Lakers if the refs call it fair

Cleveland will beat the Lakers if the refs call it fair

Shouldn't that be the other way around?

Cavs sweep the Lakers in 2

Definitely looking to be a bad year this year for NBA fans. Even the regular season sucked --two and a half elite teams, the rest of the good, potentially great teams phoned it in. The last three years had great compe ive series during the playoffs. We've yet to have any significant series battles outside of the Chicago- Boston one, and that will be forgotten in two weeks since it was an inconsequential 1st round victory. (unlike the Mavs upset)
The Rockets-Lakers series had the potential to be something to watch, but is turning out to be a real fugazy of a compe ive series, since game 2 -- and I doubt the Rockets make the series anything but a boring elimination...

While Nuggets are tough offensively as well, I don't know if see the Lakers under Phil's guidance being outwitted by George Karl.
All the East Coast match-ups are yawners with Lebron beasting....

This might actually be the first year in a while where the Finals series will actually be more interesting to watch than the preceding rounds.
