Congrats on a great win tonight. Like most Lakers fans, I have a deep respect for the Spurs. To be the best, we have to beat the best, and the Spurs are still the team to beat!

I hope you sweep the Suns!

I can only hope... I still think it is going to be a knock out drag out series.

BR i tell you , Spurs in 5..believe man, believe!

Lakers scare me. More so than the Suns do. I will say we will beat New Orleans in the semi's and then the Conference finals will be Spurs vs Lakers and Spurs will win in 7.

Eh I don't know. The Lakers' interior D is even worse than the Suns', which is pretty bad. Their perimeter D is better, but not great.

What really scares me about the Lakers is Phil Jackson. The best coach in the NBA not named Popovich. When I think of all the scenarios for the eventual champions this year, I think of Rivers/Saunders/D'Antoni/Scott...I really can't picture any of them as champions. Jackson and Sloan are the only ones that I can realistically see, and they'll (probably) be facing each other next round.

thanks for the kind words.

Best first post ever.
