magic are TOP 3 team for sure..

how about the team that just beat the Magic and Celtics in back-to-back Finals?


i just dont like Orlando
they didnt really improve at all

VC is half man half retired and they just dont have enough to beat the heat or celtics imo

You act like there's only 2 teams that could beat LA. LA won't make the Finals next year, guaranteed.

 

[Mexi]

wait, next year as in this upcoming season? 2011 Finals right?

if they're healthy, they arent getting beat by the West this season. no way in hell

im not usually this adamant about the lakers. usually im like "if" but i just cant do it now. the west is no where near the Lakers.

 

[monta8curry]

Ewww the Lakers lol I just hope the Warriors will be average this year...and not be stupid again like letting Morrow go to the Nets.

 

[Mauersota]

I just hope Rubio actually does come over next year lol.

 

[WhenIRap]

The Knicks should try and make a move to get Rubio somehow. That would be badass. I'd prefer him over tony parker.

 

[Mauersota]

Haha I hope not, I'd rather move Flynn than Rubio if he comes over.

 

[Pugz]

considering the knicks dont have tony parker you should prefer any player to him.

Your biased. They arent making the Finals.

He's biased for picking the repeat champs to make the finals?

 

[Pugz]

The Hornets, Rockets, Pacers and Nets are on the verge of a four-team trade, according to a report from Chad Ford.

Darren Collison and James Posey would be sent to Indiana, Trevor Ariza would go to New Orleans, Courtney Lee would go to Houston, while New Jersey would receive Troy Murphy.

The deal is in the advanced stages, according to sources.

I don't see why NO would do that tbh

 

[DJT]

wow...guess NO is planning on keeping Paul for a while. Good pick up by Indy.

 

[Mexi]

He's biased for picking the repeat champs to make the finals?

yup

i think he's going by the theory that no team makes 4 straight Finals
fine, i can live with that.

as of right now though, the Lakers are LEAPS AND BOUNDS above the West
I can not see any team in the West beating them, at least not now

 

[Pugz]

thunder gave them a run and they only got better.

 

[Mexi]

still small

lakers ended the season sleep walking

do you honestly think they can beat the lakers? cmon Pugz

you guys are getting a little too high on the Thunder. everyone take it slow

 

[Pugz]

i didnt say they could beat them. i said they took it to them and still improved. its not going to be easy like you say. im still picking the lakers though.

 

[Mexi]

well we'll disagree
as of now, it's a cake walk

btw, do you know the FIBA schedule?
doesnt the tourney start soon

 

[Pugz]

i just seen it. not sure where though. im pretty sure it does start soon.

 

[Mexi]

FIBA USA TEAM = Lakers vs the West

they might make it look closer than it should, but they'll win

2008 gold medal game was closer than it should have been, but Kobe bailed them out
