Congrads to boston backers

They will win this series no doubt about it. I think I will lay a good chunk of my bank roll on Boston to win this series. I knew this was a terrible match-up for the Magic. They have no anwser for this team. as much as I hate the Celtics they have a good team when everyone is healthy. But they won't be the Lakers. Bad match up for the Celtics.

the only thing I can hope for here is for the Celtics to blow 4th quarter lead like they did so well in the regular season

what makes this celtics playoff run even more amazing is that they have done it without brian scallabrini

I'm a huge lakers fan, so i'm hoping for the team Lakers can beat easiest to advance. Just wondering why you think celtics won't beat the lakers..

I believe out of the two (boston/orlando) lakers will have an easier time with orlando... with boston, who on the lakers is going to chase ray allen around, and garnett plays good D, not sure if that is a good matchup for Gasol.. and then rondo of course will take it to fisher

if LA plays orl, we dont have home court, if we play boston we do... so that has a big impact as well

If you look at the eyes of the 5 main starters of the Boston Celtics camp, you can see they want to fight LA Lakers more than Orlando Magic. It is a Pride thing with the Celtics this year because the the NBA world already forgot that they were the one team that defeated LA Lakers back in 2008...lol

It's going to be a great fight when Lakers meet Celtics in the NBA Finals. Knowing Kobe Bryant he hasn't forgotten Boston Celtics can play Great Defense...lol

bro everyone seems to think that the Suns are going to beat Lakers. They don't have the height to do it.

never said the Suns were going to win it all. I was going to put money on them to win the series. But if you look over the stats. It doesn't look good for the Suns. Lakers know that if they shut steve nash down that will be the key, he gets the offense going for the Suns. Phoenix is 4-9 in their last 13 apperances against the Lakers. all have been by a margin of 6-26 points. not a convencing stat to put money on.
