Who will win the NBA title? 

Post#1 » by NEM » Mon May 10, 2010 4:26 am

As some of you may know, I am a Magic fan, but I am asking this question on every teams board (except the teams still in the playoffs) just to get a view of how everyone else feels about the playoffs. Sort of for like personal research type of deal. Provide an explanation if possible.

Thx,

I voted for the Lakers. Not because I want them to win, far from it. I hate the ****. But, that's why they're going to win. God damnit.

because they are technically still in the playoffs, so im giving everyone a fair chance. thus far, the hawks have 3 votes out of 294 and the jazz have 1

I voted Magic. I think we'll see a Magic/Lakers final again. They are the only team left in the playoffs who have the bigs to even compete against Los Angeles and have proven in the past to be able to contain Bryant. Vince Carter and Jameer Nelson will be major players if they go to the finals, those two will need to carry the team IMO.

The Cavs look silly when they're trying to close games. They only close well if they're up by 10 or more when there's 4 minutes remaining in the 4th. I'd be nervous if I was a Cleveland fan.
So ORL goes to the finals.
PHX vs LAL...
As much as I can't stand the Lakers, I don't see them losing to Phoenix. Phoenix can wear them down by running constantly, but the Lakers' game will still be in and out and in again. Phoenix did put the clamps on Aldridge in the 1st round, but Gasol is no Aldridge.

ORL and LAL. Homecourt to the Magic. ORL got their taste last year, and really they were as close to being up 3-1 as they were down 3-1. Howard better make his free throws.
I like ORL.

Why the hell are the west finals waiting until Monday? Anyone?

Phoenix is MUCH better defensively than in previous years.
