What a nice opening game to the Western Confrence Finals!
I say Lakers in 6.
What do you guys think?

Pretty difficult home win. Should be a good, long series. If the Lakers win this series, they are going to be spent by the time they get to the Finals. If the Cavs walk over the Magic like they did with Detroit and Atlanta, this could be a problem for LA.
Melo's Olympic experience seems to have really changed him. Terrific defensive performance. It's like watching a completely different player this season.
I hope the Cavs/Magic series will be as exciting as I anticipate the Lakers/Nuggets series to be. The first two Cavs series were pretty boring - LeBron was simply too darn good. I'm not sure we'll see anything as good as the Celts/Bulls series, though. Now that was incredible.
Always looking for top NBA game worn items of superstar and Hall-of-Fame-caliber players (especially Kobe, LeBron, MJ, Curry and Durant). Also looking for game worn items of all players from special events (e.g., All Star Game, NBA Finals, milestone games, etc.). Please contact me at gameusedequip2@hotmail.com. Thank you.

I guess that the Lakers are 7 games from a championship so it's safe to put up a Laker flag. Laker fans are some bandwagon jumping folks. Fashionably late and leave the game fashionably early. The stands at Staples are unlit, so you can't see nor be seen. Some Laker fans are true, but most are fake phonies who come out of the woodwork in late April. If the Lakers play bad, then their fans are crickets and tumbleweeds. However, I agree the Lakers will win. And, all of a sudden, it will be cool again to be a "life-long" Laker fan.
Does anyone know if the Lakers are selling any of their game used items from this season? My brother-in-law lives in Pasedena and is a die-hard Lakers fan and my wife is looking to get him something Lakers related for Father's Day.

I believe MeiGray will get their jerseys from the Finals, if they can beat the Nuggets (I think the series will be close). As for regular season items, if you want to email me at rgf2@hotmail.com I can put you in touch with a couple of folks.

In my opinion the Nuggets have the most tattoos I have ever seen on 1 team.
I looked like they just got out of a tattoo convention next door at the L.A convention center.

Nothing against the Lakers...I'm a Phil Jackson fan from his days with the Bulls dynasty...but I'm hoping for a Cavs-Nuggets NBA Finals, in order to see some really fresh faces in the World Series of the NBA.

Dave,
You may get your wish. All four remaining teams are exciting ... no matter what the match-up, I expect the series to be good. These are the four best teams in the NBA (though only because KG is out), and it's nice to see the best teams meet each other at the end. I can't wait to see if the Magic can challenge the King and his teammates tonight.

As a basketball fan, I'm far more interested in a series being competitive and exciting than I am with TV ratings. The Lakers may pull it out, but I continue to be amazed at how much trouble they're having in some of their games. I certainly didn't expect them to lose two games to the Rockets without Yao, McGrady, and Dikembe (and three games to the Rockets total). And they came close to losing at home again last night. The players around Kobe are overrated (Pau, Odom, Fisher, etc.). Pau may be the most overrated player in the game. He's a good player, no doubt, but you just never know if he's going to show up and play hard for 48 minutes. Kobe will have to carry the team on his back, just as he did last year in the playoffs. I'm not saying he can't do it, mind you, as there is little Kobe can't do. It has to take a lot out of him as games and time pass, though. Tomorrow night's game is critical. If the Lakers can come out and dominate, it will set the tone for rest of the series. Last night's game certainly did not send much of a message to the Nuggets (other than the Nuggets have a shot).
