What Would Don Draper Do?
reminds me of the lakers vs. suns series clinching game in 2007.
game ended up being a blowout, and kobe practically threw in the towel in the 2nd half.
lebron looks like he's playing the same way.

would the Lakers have a better chance against Orlando or better chance had it been with Cleveland?

What Would Don Draper Do?
i've always had a lot of respect for players that shake hands and congratulate the winning team. it's classy and shows good sportsmanship.

ECF:
Magic over Cavs in 7 - yes i know i'll get shit for this, but it's my gut feeling and i think if they play lebron hard with hedo, lewis, and pietris, they might get somewhere. plus, the have this guy named Dwight Howard
FINALS:
Lakers over Magic in 6 - Dwight will show up our interior, but look for mbenga to get some minutes to toughen dwight and rough him up. horrible stretch for the games 3, 4, 5 all in orlando, because if we don't win one there, it'll be a 7th and anyones game, and i do not want that at all
Finals MVP: Kobe Bryant
You sir are a genius. I think you are one of the few who actually thought Orlando would win the east before the playoffs started.

charles is on point about cleveland. this team isn't gonna get much better next season. they're old. there's not a lot of trade bait unless they steal a player like LA did with pau.
cleveland should say
to lebron.
cleveland should say

Also, it says I already voted on this poll. Now, I did vote when all of the playoff teams were listed... and I voted for Cleveland. Now it's saying I already voted and that I voted for Orlando, which I did not.
So do not put too much faith into it. It seems like the poll got messed up after the editing to reflect current teams.

home court advantage is huge, especially with the way refs call games now. experience is a big intangible factor too since the lakes were there last year. i agree that the cavs would be the easier matchup but it's kinda negated cus the cavs had home court vs. everyone. this years cavs team reminds me of the 2001 sixers where they had iverson and 4 other guys on the court to play defense.

back on april 16th:
It's up to us now. who is the hurngriest, Kobe, or Dwight. We've been here and lost twice in the last 5 years (2004 & 2008). Time to end that and take what is ours. tkae what belongs to us. snatch that trophy back and win this series. We have 3 months to be tired after this, just will together what is left and get this shit done.
Go Lakers
