Well, we have a couple of hours before the doubleheader of elimination games tonight... who is everyone picking? Celtics 93 Nets 82 Kings 98 Lakers 94
Kings over Lakers by about 5. Nets over Celtics by 15 or more. Antoine Walker put the final nail in the coffin with his comments about Kidd's wife and Jason Kidd will merely slam the door shut. All in all, should be an interesting finals - Sacto vs New Jersey. Sacto in 5-6.
As long as Sac. has to play 5 on 8 , they have no chance. Shaq commits about 20 fouls per game + constant traveling, and will never be called for anywhere close to that because the "League" absolutely WANTS L.A. in the finals!!! It's all about the Benjamins$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I knew New Jersey would win, they were far superior to Boston. My prediction for the Lakers game, 99-98 Kings.
The officiating tonight is simply crap. Why even play the game if they're going to protect the Lakers with that nonsense.
The refs were awefully stilted toward the Lakers. Pretty unfair job. Nontheless the Lakers converted their FTs and the Kings didn't execute at the end. On to game 7, still looks like Sac advancing to me. The Kings need to come out firing though, the closer it is at the end the tigher I expect the Kings to get.
