I like you, you seem like a good guy overall. I enjoy how you "battle" these noobs on here, don't know how you have the patience. Hell, if you're ever in the LA area...let me know. I'll buy you a drink, a hoe...or both.
With that said, I would like to extend this warning to you as a friend. Do NOT place a series bet on Boston in the finals. It will be a loss soon as you press the "submit" button.
This is the Laker's year. Kobe WILL get his revenge. No chance in hell Kobe will lose again to the same team. Have trust in him, players like him come along maybe once every ten years. We need to recognize destiny when it's right in our face and take advantage of the situation by POUNDING the right side with straight $$$$$...this is what we are born to do man, lay huge cash on circumstances like this!
In their 2008 matchup in the finals, Paul Pierce dominated the Lakers. He's the main reason why they beat LA. However, this time it will be different. Instead of Radmanovich or Walton guarding him, it will be one of the best defensive players in the last 10 years: RON ARTEST. This will be the key matchup and the difference in 2010.

is it possible for Phil to play this lineup...
Kobe, Artest, Odom, Gasol, Bynum...
on offense, that leaves Kobe to run the point... that's not really a problem... difficult lineup for Boston to match up with...
on defense, can they hold their own? Kobe on Rondo... Artest on Allen, Odom on Pierce (?), Gasol and Bynum on KG and Perk...
i think Phil is going to experiment with that lineup at some point... i almost think he has to...

Just because you have the best record dosen't make you the best team, as the Cavs, Magic, Mavs, and Suns have found out. These are great teams in the regular season but as we have all seen they are not built for the playoffs. Defence wins championships, and Orlando and Phoenix would have trouble guarding the Sisters of Mercy. They have also made a living at the 3 point line and trying to outscore their opponents, too easy to shut down. We also found out the Cavs are a one man show, again too easy to shut down. The Lakers and Celtics have been so dominate in these playoffs because offensively they have too many reliable weapons, both teams play very good defence and both teams have a great coaching staff. These two teams have shown how superior they really are to the rest of the league, but to gauge how they will perform against each other based on their dominace in these playoffs is not very wise, and I do know the Lakers haven't had to play any real defence except in game 5 when they had to turn it on and the Celtics have not played a team with a real offence. What will happen? I believe the key to the series lies in Rondo. As he goes so does the Celtics Offence. Who has had to guard him? Nelson? Mo Williams? If I were Dr. Phil I would Put Kobe on him. Lakers in 6.
