Ive been picking LA every series of this playoff. This is where I stop. Give me Boston in 6 games please. The Celtics are back and are playing some great basketball right now. The defense is clicking, Paul Pierce is playing better, their bench guys like Nate Robinson, Sheed, Tony Allen, & Big Baby are stepping up huge. I think Rondo can dominate this series, and I think Garnett & Perkins will slow down Gasol & Bynum. This is more than likely the last hurrah for the Big 3, and I think they go out with a bang winning their 2nd title (both over the Lakers) in 3 years.

this will be an incredible series for sure! Two great ball teams going head to head! I'm a die hard Laker fan so can't bet against them, but I will say, they have their hands full and Boston doesn't lose too many final series!!!

Artest is the difference between the Lakers from 2 years ago. Lakers in 6, I think Artest takes who ever he's on out of the series. Boston will have to rely on Rondo to win this series, he has to take over for Boston to win.

Artest isn't going to show up when they need him the most, this time.

The Celtics will fight hard but I think the Lakers will win it (*Pukes*).

    • summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "  
    • this one is gold:     Bryce has a cult inside the Panthers fanbase that has truly developed some NPC hivemind. I'll never understand how he's captured the true essence of the casual fan like that.    
    • "everybody has to earn it, heading in the right direction, feel great about him, get it done at the right time"     Mother fuger
