LOL at VEl saying the Celtics are better than the Spurs. I guess he didn't realize that Boston played scrubs all year like Philly, Toronto, Orlando, Washington, Atlanta, Charlotte etc.

While the west is arguably the toughest conferernce in all of sports, and possibly ever in basketball.

Celtics have gotten it done when it matters, but they've also lost games they had no business losing. Lakers have beatin 3 good teams to get to where they are, and had their way with all three teams more or less.

Not only are the Lakers better, but they haven't played 2 seven game series and than a 6 game one, so the Lakers will be the better rested team.

I just don't see how Boston can stop Kobe, and if they double team, Odom, Gasol, Fisher, will burn them all night. And even if they do play him man up, like RP said, who guards Odom? Perkins isn't quick enough, PJ Brown is to old, Garnett will have to play Gasol. Odom should be able to have his way in this series.

It's good to see Lakers/Celtics and it will be even better to see Lakers take it in 6.

Also, the 2, 3 , 2 format is retarded.
