we are truly blessed to have the 2 best teams in the nba finals. I am a die hard lakers fan but let me explain why i think the lakers will prevail. ok first the kobe factor kobe can out play the big 3 on any givin night. 2nd the celtics have trouble scoring and seem to disapper in the late parts of the 2nd half. 3rd i truly beleave that the lakers are faster and our bench will outscore there bench. 4th i think that odom and pau will have a great series. i also think the celtics are very overated. one thing i will give the celtics is there defence they have homecourt advantage and the refs seem to give the home team a little advantage so far see the semi conference where the home team only lost 3 times out of 25. i might be a little biased but i have watched every lakers game this year (nba pass) the lakers have been down 20 and came back the lakers also had alot of injuires and where winning games with only 7 players. both teams are great and have the abillity to step it up i just think that kobe will get the hyper dunks on and go to work. i may be wrong but lakers in 5

Aren't the two best teams usually in the finals? I really dislike Kobe, no offense to anyone. I think the Celtics will win in 7. It's two vs three in this matchup.

the two best teams are never in the finals. last year there wasnt an nba finals to me.celtics gonna fall hard man the big 3 are gonna be no where to be found. this series will be lucky to go 5 games celtics way overated. how can you dislike kobe hes the best player to every play the game. he had more point than your team (dallas) at one point in a game last year. i see what your saying but the "big 3" have never proved anything. we will see though i could be wrong i just dont see the celtics bench even scoring ten points in the game.

Well I will agree that last year the two best teams weren't in the finals because 67-15 Dallas wasn't there; couldn't get passed GS. But usually the two best teams of the year ARE there, though. I dislike Kobe because of his attitude, and that's it. He is a crybaby! How soon you forget the beginning of this season... Besides, how could you think it'll be over in 5 with the Lakers on top? Just look at the regular season series! All Celtics! They're no joke. The only thing the Lakers have that's different from then is Gasol, will that be enough against a defensive team like Boston...?

You think Kobe is better than MJ, or Magic, or Chamberlain?? That's pretty bold. He is an amazing talent, for sure, but the best ever...not convinced. That title belongs to MJ.

This response is sent to you from the capital of California, home of the Sacramento Kings (be nice!) Ugh....the Lakers will win because of Kobe..not a fan of Lakers or him. I agree with your prediction of Lakers in 5.

like you, I am also looking forward to this match up...truly this season belongs to these two teams for their remarkable performance in the court and outside the court (trades). It would really be nice to see the games lasting til game 7 with LA taking the championship crown.
