    You guys just don't get it. Stop hating for a second and you'll see the Lakers can win at will. Sweeps are boring and not very profitable. In down economic times, it serves the league to play more games. Its good for everybody. Denver will fall, Orlando will beat Cleveland. Lakers in seven in both series. Yawn.........

    As the second youngest team in the league, the Lakers can be flakers. The kids are too young to focus the way they should. Can you imagine the distractions? Cash, women, more cash, more women and, oh yeah CASH and WOMEN EVERYWHERE:eek: Especially in LA.

    There are a few real @ssholes who carry the "thug" mentality off-court, but for the most part they all seem to be decent guys.[/QUOTE]

    I think we can count Lebron out, It's looking more like it now anyway.
    I am not counting Kobe out just yet though, Denver needs to win tonight to bring the % down on that.

    Eather way it should be another good game.

    Don't say I told you boys....don't count Orlando out! They gave last years winners a tough series! Orlando and the Lakers should be interesting. That said. I've never liked the Lakers!

    Cleveland still has a shot. However Lebron can't do it by himself his team needs to step up big time.

    Lakers?? come on man.. The Nuggets won't let this one go;) and you were one of the guys i liked here:p J/K cnh.

    I beleive the winner of tonight's game will take the series. The only pro team i like out of California is the Chargers, Yeah i liked Jerry Rice and Joe Montana how could anybody not like them the 49ers KICKED ****. but i was never a fan of the 49ers, and the Raiders well the best thing that could ever happen to that team is if the owner sold the team or fell over dead, I can't stand Al Davis he is the fall of that team IMNSHHO.

    With that said i always look forward to a Broncos Raiders show down.

    The thing is, playoff basketball is different than regular season basketball. So far, the Cavs supporting cast has not stepped up to playoff level in this series.

    Maybe the first two series didn't present enough of a challenge, or maybe they got out of rhythm with the layoff after the sweeps in the first two series.

    Maybe Orlando is just a better team.

    Melo has the fastest 1st step when he drives to the basket that I have ever seen in recent years for a player of his size! Unreal.

    If he has a faster first step than LeBron, that is pretty impressive!

    I'd have to go with LeBron for quick first steps. He's very explosive and strong.

    Plus considering LeBron's size, which is why I commented on the Carmello comment. I don't see a lot of Western Conference ball so I really could not compare the two.

    I personally have not seen anyone with LeBron's size EVER be able to move like he does, including his first step explosion.

    Cavs did it. Triple double for king James.
    I thought it was cool to see Brady Quinn and Ben Rothelisberger (no clue if I spelled that correct) enjoying the game.

    The Cavs have to win the next game to even get home court advantage back. They're still on the steep side of the mountain.

    Too much Kobe...if Denver does not get their act together in the 2nd half this series is over. Advance Lakers.
