Spurs/Lakers

[Steve]

Who do you have?

I say Spurs in 7.

They're the hottest team in the league and the Lakers look like they're ready for the season to end. 40 year-old Karl Malone is the heart of that team. An inspiring sight, but once that begs for trouble as The Lake Show moves into Duncan, Webber/Miller, Garnett, Wallace, and/or O'Neal territory.

Shaq looks like he's finished. Granted, Yao while he has a lot of room for improvement is the one body that can slow the big daddy down. Still 7 pts??

The Spurs are redhot, they have the best coach in the NBA, and to my surprise have the homefield. Thought having the higher seed demanded homefield, but i guess they go by records. A good choice, since everyone plays the same schedule.

Tony Parker is peaking. One more reason to go against LA, other than Kobe is the spawn of Satan.

Ugh

After seeing game 1, I would like to change my original prediction from Lakers in 6................................................

...to Lakers in 7!!

(Of course, the reality of the situation is that if LA continues to play like they did yesterday, the Spurs could sweep, but either way... the PISTONS are this year's NBA champs!)

 

[Steve]

No changing picks...i'm sorry

Predictions

The Lakers will win game 2, the Pistons will win again also.

 

[Steve]

Don't see LA winning tonight.

What would scare me as a Lakers fan is this...

Payton seems to have one foot out the door..

And...the Spurs played B- basketball. They have another gear to reach.

If they win tonight...break out the brooms.

 

[ShawnHartXXX]

HAAAA!

Lakers in 6.

Who da MAN?! Huh?? HUH???

 

[TSiegel]

Screw that.....the way Ball was played yesterday.....

You're looking at the NEW NBA Champions.....

Minnesota Timberwolves/Sacramento Kings.

 

[Steve]

That had to be the ugliest series win.

Malone tiring himself out after game 3...

The Spurs going in the tank in the second half of game 4..

Fisher's prayer in 5.

And the last nail in Parker's shooting coffin in game 6.

Don't see Minnesota beating the Lakers, but the Kings will.

Uhm... Go Pacers. ^_^

Woohoo. Hoosier Pride.
