Lakers
would you rather play the Clippers or the Lakers in the first round? (Obviously this depends on whether we are first or second in our division)
Definitely Lakers, because the Clippers have more than just one man and a good coach on their team.
Clippers
Kobe can be a pain in the ass.
Hmm, that's a tough one. With the Lakers, although we'd definitely win that series...you just know Kobe is going to have one or two games which he manages to win himself. With the Clippers, they don't have much (if any) postseason experience, but Brand could be a tough matchup for Duncan.
In the end, I'd go with the Clippers, simply because I know that the Lakers would give Dallas fits...and hopefully tire them out for the second round![]()
Lakers. It always feels better winning a championship when you beat the Lakers.
A "True Champion" does not care who they face!
Lakers, we get to rape them out of the first round, and keep them from the lottery, so it's win win.
Lakers any day of the week. They're probably the one team who we can beat with very little contribution from Duncan. Kobe will struggle against Bowen, and Lamar Odom is an inconsistent scorer. And on top of that they play no defense. Tony Parker will have a field day with Smush.
Clippers are dangerous on paper, with Brand as the workhorse and ET as the closer. If Duncan and Manu are not back to normal, they'll be a tough matchup.
Lakers! That's sooo funny to beat the arrogant Lakers... I wouldn't grow tired of winning against them on Finals.
I betcha the mavs are cringing at the thought of having to play the Lakers again. Kobe could break some first round scoring records with that matchup.
I'll take a Laker beatdown.![]()
