I hope the nuggets can pull it off but I doubt it,tough to beat the Lakers becuz they got home court...Cavs in 6,regular season means nothing,example>>Rockets got swept by the Lakers in the reg but pushed it to 7 in playoffs.

The Nuggets will beat the Lakers in 6. I have no concern whatsoever. Picks 1 and 3 Lebron vs Melo. It'll be an awesome, up-tempo Finals.

I agree, I say it'll take 7 games though.

All of the people now doubting the Lakers is exactly what the Lakers need.

Lakers win game 7 by about 15-20 points.

I'll always doubt the lakers, I'm a born laker hater. Unless they're playing the Celtics or the Knicks...who I hate more.

Plenty of reasons to doubt and/or hate them. I just have this feeling that they're getting the genuinely disrespected card on their side, and with the talent on their team, they're the ones you want being cocky if you hate them.

This is the reason why I'm picking the Lakers. Personally, I want Denver to win.

Someone likes all the Jerry West bulls***.

I'm really not sure what this means.

Jerry West came out today and said that Lebron is passing Kobe up in being the best player in the league. I too think, this is an empty statement. I mean, I think it's true but I don't think Jerry does.

Poor Blake Griffin. His career in the NBA is over before it even stars.

Kobe Bryant is now, according to this game's announcers, up to 5 technical fouls in this playoffs. A 1 game suspension happens after #7.

Griffin is a less mobile version of Michael Beasley.

And a more physical version. Nice job trying to knock Griffin without telling the entire story.

I said he was a less mobile Beasley. I never said that he wasn't a good player.

Blake Griffin is going to be a beast in the league. Whoever compared him to Beasley doesn't know Griffin. He is so much bigger and more powerful than Beasley and is still athletic as hell.

Beasley is a good player as well. He just smelled NBA cash and came out too early.

 

I am hoping that Griffin can do well at the next level.

 

But, (Kansas players aside) many backcourt Big 12 guys seem to suffer from a lack of touch in the pros and take extra time to develop.

So was Elton Brand. So is Baron Davis. So was Lamar Odom. So was Danny Manning.

I see you're giving me the hard sell here. Somehow I'm just less than convinced. Where's the Candyman thread?
