It's always easier when one has the best player of his era to coach and somehow, the coach with the most rings has had two, maybe three of them. No correlation...

If I had to guess, you just pointed to a bunch of words in the dictionary to create this post.

The dictionary also had:

Jordan >> Kobe

Crazy ass stat of the day...

This is the Laker's 40th trip to the Western Conference Finals, in their 62nd season. That's 65% of the time.

And stop exaggerating, it's 64.5%.

Less than 24 hours to go!

Can Bynum's knee hold up? Can Lopez come back and play effectively?

I think the match-up at Center is going to be pivotal in this series.

IMO, it comes down to your boys being able to stop this, and all the resulting trouble is causes:

About freaking time this series started! I have no idea what to expect, I don't think I've ever seen a game where both teams had this much time off.

I think that Lopez, Dudley, and Amundson are the keys for you guys. If you're going to win the series, you're going to have to win a really high number of the 50/50 balls, and those 3 are very good at that.

If the Finals end up being Lakers vs. Celtics, I'm going to have to find a surrogate team during next year's regular season, because it will be totally obvious that the regular season doesn't matter AT ALL if your team is a top notch squad. Both the Lakers & Celtics completely blew off most of this season, and here we are. I'll need to root for some borderline playoff contending Eastern Conference team during all non-Laker games or something to keep it interesting.
