This a storied rivalry, taking up almost a 3rd of all finals ever played. A must watch. I'm taking the C's.

Kobe wins his 5th ring. Hate em, but I guess they played an OK game..*sigh*..


The series run up to 7. Most games happen right after the other( I mean, the Lakers game may come on and the the Magic came may come on immediately after or even during that one)
Again, I won't be able to update this everyday or after every game.
Bear with me please.

Sorry for the huge lag, I've been restricted from use/busy, so this has taken a while to update...

Not possible for the Lakers to win in 5.
I hope not.
It's looking pretty grim for the Suns
Jazz may win

Yeah, pretty much.
Looks like a sweep to me
Probably
No. 5 games

[םмҗ]

Lakers in 6 now my bad. That game last night went horribly.
Bobcats are good...somewhat
Don't underestimate Dwayne Wade

[Majestik]

Nah, Wade has been defeated. However, I am the most pissed Mavericks fan.

[םмҗ]

Mavs suckkkk

D-Wade dropped 46 last game. he can do it again.

[Majestik]

He lost.

The Mavs can come back.

[Young Hawk]

Last night... the Hawk's loss really, really hurt me. It was so awful. I fear Joe Johnson will leave if they don't win the series. Mike Woodson is gone for sure (he should be gone!). If the Hawks get blown out tomorrow night, I fear the Hawks will have quite the shake-up in the off-season. (such as.. Trading Josh Smith, Al Horford, Crawford... etc.) I think it will be a mistake if they do... they really should keep Al and Josh. Joe Johsnon is my favourite player and I really hope they keep him.

P.S. I believe Jeff Teague should play more in this series, maybe even start because Crawford/Bibby's defense on Jennings has not been good enough to win this series.

So far... my western choices are looking right on cue. Lakers and Suns both did exactly what I said they would and the Spurs DID upset the Mavs in 6 and GUESS WHAT. Jazz are leading Denver right now in game 6 where I will be right again if Jazz win tonight. Pretty good Western choices I made lol. Didn't think Bucks had it in them to push Atlanta so far and well, I just thought Dwayne Wade coulda outdone Boston... Oh well

[Sienkronieze]

I really want the Hawks to win. C'mon, hometown team.

[Young Hawk]

[Majestik]

So...looks like there are a lot of scared C fans right about now.

[Ruinn]

Anyone see the suns and lakers yesterday? With less than a second on the clock, Artest caught the air ball from Bryant's shot and put it back up to win 103-101.
