    I would say the Magic are the favorites to win the championship. They're not my favorite team in the league, but I'd pick them over the Lakers...I would have picked Denver or Orlando over the Lakers in the Finals, but not Cleveland. With Cleveland out, the Lakers are in trouble. The Lakers think they can just sit back and cakewalk through everything but they are really going to have to do some work in this series. They can't depend on the refs bailing them out if they don't play close enough (see 2004 and 2008 Finals). They played Houston and Denver close enough to where the David Stern whistles got them to the line and helped them win. I just don't take this team seriously. Kobe Bryant, but then who? Pau Gasol? Lamar Odom? Andrew Bynum? Trevor Ariza? This team is simply not championship-caliber. They have been unimpressive in the Houston and Denver series. They only won against Houston because Yao was out, they only won against Denver because Denver missed a couple of buckets. Stern got the Lakers into the Finals, the ratings will be there, but at the end of the series Kobe is going home without a championship.

    the refs are like the angels on angels in the outfield. They get you so far, but championships you have to win on your own

Why come out in the 2nd round and make fools out of yourselves? Orlando has no one to step up and be a leader on this team. What now Dwight? The so-called Defensive Player of the Year had 12 points and 12 rebounds tonight. If he's so good defensively, why did he allow 112 points? This is why the DPOY award should go to players who impact games defensively. Anyone can stand there and grab rebounds. Good job Boston for just going out there and doing what you were supposed to do. No big surprises here, it'll be nice to see Dwight Howard and LeBron James go home even with their BS Defensive Player and MVP awards.

    The Lakers looked great closing out Denver. They had a gear that the Nuggets just couldn't match. Who is Gasol supposed to guard? Lewis? Doesn't Howard guard him on the other end? I can't see Lewis being able to guard Pau in the post.

    I still like Denver's chances to win it all.

    Fans of a certain team might disagree with you.

    You should know that his burning hot gay passionate hate for the Lakers overrides all other hate.

    I don't like Orlando, but they are the favorites against LA. The Lakers are the underdogs in the series. I don't like either one of these teams, but Orlando is the better team between the two. No trash talking against the Lakers, they're just not an intimidating team.

    My standards are higher than this...I could never watch ugly chicks do porn. I might find it acceptable if 1 ugly chick has a really hot girlfriend, that way, my attention is better served on the hot girl.

    Of course, "clear favorite" means whomever you think is going to win.

    The Jazz one was pretty weak, but the others were pretty good.
