good game??? i am tired of watching the lakers, no... wait kobe play. i dont see a team effort in the lakers team. they have no chance if the keep playing for one player. every guy in that team as soon as he gets the ball checks out where kobe is. when he is on the bench they dont know who to give the ball to. suns in the other hand oh my got.. what a wonderful team. i like the spurs but i would have loved if the suns had amare this year and have gone all the way. tooo  bad maybe next year. this seems like it is going to be detroits year. lakers need kobe to start all the plays not finish all of them. he needs to look at his teammates and pass the ball more. enogh with the record brakings kobe; this is not a one man sport it is a team sport.

why is this so hard to believe. The Lakers have one of the greatest coaches coaching them in the zenmaster. They have the best player in the nba in kobe bean bryant, and he came in with more chips on his shoulders because steve nash might have robbed the mvp award from him. And like you mentioned, they have a vastly improved luke walton, i have to give him credit for that because he was terrible a year ago, and lamar odom is a triple double threat any given night; he has been fantastic throughout the playoffs thus far. Also, Smush Parker's heroics and shutting down Steve Nash fairly well. Phil Jackson's Lakers have the better formula in their style of play to win in the playoffs, they play slow tempo and try to maintain control. The Suns play a more fast break style added with the three ball that they live or die on. Nash is their playmaker and locking him down breaks down the engine. The games have been close because of the freak of nature shawn marion, without him like you saw in the extra period of the last game, the suns could not buy many baskets other than on the perimeter. It never hurts to have the clutchest shooter in the game today either!

Everyone is saying the Pistons, but I wouldn't bet on it. Surely they'll cruise through the Eastern Conference, but the Suns will be unstoppable come playoff time... Amare will be back with Nash and Marion, and an emerging supporting cast of Diaw, Bell, and  Jones/House who can all put up big numbers on any given night...

N'orleans Hornets!  OK, that's a little bit of wishful/wanting thinking. :)\n\nI think that Lakers will win based on their stats.

I'll pick the Lakers because they are the team I've always cheered for ~ they exceeded expectations last year and really had a nice push into the playoffs. They were the second youngest team last year, I think this year they will be very good. \n\nNow. On to reality! \n\n1. Chicago Bulls look really good. \n2. LeBron's Turn, the world wants this kid to win, win, win. \n3. Miami will tank. They relied on emotion and a fourth-quarter D-Wade every time, this can not go on. \n4. I'd keep a wary eye on the Mavericks, they are very hungry and well coached. \n5. It's the sunset years for the Spurs, so sad to see, what a great decade and what a great team. \n6, Steven Nash won't three-peat the MVP, he's just too old and rickety. If Amare doesn't return to his old self, the Suns are way too soft in the middle. \n7. The Clippers are better than everyone thinks -- I think they'll shock a few teams who discount them in the playoffs. \n8. Detroit and the Pacers both are headed south. \n9. I have a soft spot in my heart for Houston. I like Yao and Tracy, didn't they pick up someone? Shane Battier maybe? Some role player who'll really help that team. I've not seen them yet this year though. \n\nSo, I'll pick the Lakers over the Bulls in six games. Phil Jackson is a much better coach than anyone has given him credit for. Like Riles in the Showtime era, they think he just rolls the ball out on the court. Phil knows the 82 game season is just that, a long tune up time for the playoffs. His teams are usually peaking going into the playoffs instead of exhausted like so many eager coaches teams. Kobe proved himself with 81 points and a scoring title -- hopefully he's finally matured into an adult.

The Lakers are not going to win against the Suns in Pheonix. Even though the Suns are playing at home thats not the biggest reason why they are going to win. The biggest reason the Suns are gonna win is because of their depth. They have different makers coming off the bench and all the Lakers have is Kobe. Kobe is a fantastic player but as you can see in the last game they cant win if he scores almost more than half of his team's points. Basketball is a team sport and if you dont make your team mates better than you will lose the game. And who makes his team better than Steve Nash?? Thats why hes the MVP for the second time in a row.

If they get lucky, third round, get knocked off by the Spurs. (They get lucky by beating Phoenix, Clippers should beat Denver, so the two LA teams meet in second round, Lakers win in 6 with a bit of luck). They can get no further, no matter how much luck they have. And even getting this far is pushing it. Realistically, lose to Phoenix in 6.
