    This might deserve its own thread. :p

    Barring injuries or some unexpected event, I say Suns in 5...

    The Suns game plan has to be to give Kobe his 50 and shut down the rest. That way they would win easily. The Kobe Show is their best friend...

    Honestly, I am more interested in sideshows like Raja vs. Kobe or just how much the two teams hate each other. I am hoping for a fight or two, tons of technicals, war of words, and the rest. So I am really interested in this series more so for its entertainment value.

    Should be fun either way...

    lol what? cavs and wizards get no love??? Lebron gets no love!?!?!? I like how the refs are basically calling anything that touches lebron a foul. That late foul when lebron went on the floor crying was really funny. The ball was already past the half court.

    wtf i thought you had to give the defender a step when you set a screen. Phoenix's screens are right next to Farmar... BTW i like this guy's game on Nash... he's pretty physical with him so far.

    lol....kwame brown after his no call foul which wasn't a foul, he just literally walked up the court in the next 2 possession and than amare in the paint, and he just stands there and let odom and farmar foul him, while he standing out the circle watching....who is of course his man

    no wonder the lakers have been slumping, no chemistry, no heart at all

    Lakers for whatever reason matchup pretty well against the Suns. All 4 games they played this season were reasonably close. Kobe can single-handedly win a game or 2 in this series.

    Suns in 7

    I hate that camera. Lakers are looking better than they should. Farmar is playing Nash pretty well so far.

    I'm not saying the Lakers will win, but the 1st quarter reminds me of last year's series. Last year, the Suns exploded for like 39 points in the 1st quarter of game one and never did that again. This time, the Lakers are controlling the tempo from the start. If the Lakers play steady and don't crater, they could give the Suns a rough time. Still, I give them almost no chance of winning this series unless the Suns choke like dogs. Steve Nash won't let them do that. The talent gap in this series is too great.

    Also, is the ref Leon Wood the same as the guy who played at North Carolina?
