    With KT on the roster the advantage the Lakers had in the post is gone. Spurs backcourt is better overall than the Lakers. TP+Manu > Kobe

    This is simplistic way to see things but I don't see the Lakers winning 4 out of 7. I think this will be spurs in 5 or 6.
    You're predicating all of this on the hope that the Spurs will SPAM. If that doesn't happen again this year this conversation is meaningless. The way they are playing right now they wouldn't even make it to the WCF.

    Radmanovich and Farmar are match ups nightmares.. i haven;t seen a roster this good since ourselves in 2003... it's a scary picture guys... Spurs in 7 with a Manu miracle
    Farmar? Check your sack.

    I love it...keep it coming. If we meet, the Lakers got it in 7 and it will depend on HCA.

    If everyone is healthy I think the Spurs can do it in 6 or 7. Bowen on Kobe will be a battle for the ages. Kobe is going to go off in one or two games for certain, but if Bowen can force one bad game out of him that may be all the edge the Spurs need. The front court tandem of Bynum and Gasol is tough, but with Ginobili and especially Parker healthy and in attack mode I think the Spurs are going to limit either their aggression or playing time thanks to foul trouble. There won't be any easy wins for either team, but I think the Spurs get it done.

    Lakers will have HCA if we meet up and that may be the difference maker. No way this series goes < 6.

    Spurs in 5 or 6. Lakers won't have enough chemistry this year.

    Chemistry hasn't really been an issue at all. Gasol couldn't have fit in any better, he's averaging better numbers here than he did in Memphis. The rest of the team has been playing together for 3-4 years, they know each other like a book. I suspect Bynum's integration will go smoothly as well. The sheer talent level alone will compensate for lack of experience together.

    The way things are shaping up and considering how easy the Laker's schedule is for the rest of the season I don't see how we won't have HCA over the Spurs, who seems to have a much tougher schedule.

    Enough with the name-calling dude. It's childish.

    Yeah, the way things are shaping up.

    You sound like mavfan when they were 5 up on the Spurs.

    Only you sound even stupider with your insurmountable 0.5 game lead.

    We don't have to worry about the Lakers making it deep.

    HCA is only relevant to pretenders.

    The Lakers didn't have it the last time they took out the Spurs; the Spurs didn't have it for EITHER of their past two championships.

    If your team needs it; your team isn't ready.

    They way they were playing last year at this same time was about the same and they ended up winning it all. Against all odds.

    Pundits gave credit to other teams - ESPN has been talking about the match between the lakers and suns all day long, non-stop.. It's understandable, they are flashier and more marketable.

    The spurs "work in the shadows"... then they come at the right time and bite you in the ass.

    I think most smart experts are giving the Spurs the benefit of the doubt right now. They get a lot more slack than any other team in the NBA.
    It's probably the world champion thing.

    Well if we're going to go by experience and history then the Spurs will not win it all this year because they have never repeated in the last decade despite having talented teams throughout.

    Ok let's go on history, Lakeshow hasn't won in 5 years, Spurs won last year.

    Advantage Spurs.

    That's why the history argument is completely stupid and irrelevant.

    The only thing that matters is the present. Ask the Patriots about that.

    How is D&C spamming when the ing le of this thread has Lakers in it. Oh, and someone asked for his opinion and he is giving it to you. What more do you want. If you don't like the thread, than you know what to do. It's that simple.
