Yes........why do these stupid threads pop up from outsiders ? Who the hell cares about the other series ? Of the 4 teams left last I remember you had to win a series first to play in a Final.

I hate the Suns but I won't disrespect that team or their fan base like that, and you wonder why Laker fans get called out for being arrogant ?

Because of threads like these, yeah we know in our minds hearts on who we would like to face. But why post it ?




+1

we have wayyyy toooo many threads like this. this can bring bad karma you know? let's take care of the suns first guys heck we have not even played a game against them yet. let's not be arrogant my laker bros.

Here is a weird scenario and I know its just what if. In the 2007 Finals we should have won games 1 and 4. IF we did and had a rematch with the Magic and Kobe was going for his 6th ring, wouldnt it have had so much simularity to the Bulls-Jazz rematch in 98 when Jordan went for his 6th ring. Its crazy but we were this close to closing in on PJs 4th 3 peat this year. Oh well. We lost but if Bynum played man oh man what could have been.

Just win a championship this year and I'm happy!!!

Lakers made the 2007 finals? :confused:

We need to take care of the Suns first & foremost, but peaking around the corner a bit I would have to say the Celtics. This 2-9 disadvantage needs some rectification.

Hahaha making threads about the finals.


You're not getting there.

Suns in 6 you'll all soon realize what kind of team you're up against.


Btw Lopez IS back and will be starting.

Don't be silly, an insignificant forum thread isn't going to jinx the Lakers run. It's their series to lose. But as a fan, I'd pick Celtics. I could care less about the easy road. Revenge is all I want :x

Deep ' I'm incline to agree with you on that it is disrespectful to the Suns and their fan base....OMG DID I JUST SAY THAT. I say lets take care of the Suns first and who ever wins out east then we'll handle it when it comes about....until then wait for Game one on Monday, but for now just shut the hell up and chill out.....

Too many of these premature threads popping up. We haven't even played Game 1 of the Conference Finals, god forbid we lose and we'll be seeing threads like "Bench Drew, Start Lamar" or "Rebuilding for 2010-11.

But agree with anklebreaker that starting to correct that 2-9 disadvantage wouldn't be a bad thing.
Thank you, Phil.

I love how Deep points out that getting ahead of ourselves proves arrogance, then this genius makes this post.

I'm a big believer in the power of positive thought too...
But at what point does it cross the line into lunacy?

You will stub your toe on the way to the pisser tonight. So it is written... So it shall be done...

So a team with the best record remaining in these playoffs and that has won 16 straight games including 8-0 in the playoffs is crossing the line into lunacy. I guess there will be a lot of crazy muh fukc's out after the Finals this year then. I LOL :lol:

By the way i can't remember stubbing my toe last night but then again i don't remember much of anything after 2 in the morning on weekends. :o

Didn't you guys lose by 40 points in the series clincher? Yeah...you guys weren't even close to winning the championship in '08.
