hahahahahaha Love reading bozak's pre-series analysis.

As I said last week, if bozak thought the Lakers are a lock, I like
the Celtics. Even if the fix is in on this as well. Guess if your
prediction and analysis of a series sucks, go with the ol' "it was
fixed." From now on, predict the fixes, genius.

But maybe, just maybe, determining Finals from how teams have played
in the playoffs so far is a bad way of going. Remember the Lakers/
Pistons a few years ago? The Pistons played one of the worst played
series ever against Indiana. Everyone thought the Lakers were a lock
for that one too. Anyone remember the result? Guessing a few of you
can. Or was that fixed too?

The only safe bet seems to be is if the Spurs (yes, the Shams
according to our Kreskin) are in it, they will win.

But as I also said last week, I hope this is a good series. So that
would require the Lakers to win at least 2 of 3 in lala land.

Just don't think the Lakers are exactly a lock. Do you still, bozak?
But at least the you have those 8 ESPN "experts" on your side.

the refs certainly havent been on my side... good thing donaghy dropped
a dime on the league today... so they should be able to play a game without
the refs deciding it...

that being the case, its a done deal... lakers...

So far my crystal ball has been RIGHT ON (the above I posted on 5/31/08).

Now, I'll be very happy if the C's prove me wrong and win two in LA instead
of just one.

Boston was the better team all year. Boston is the better team now. LA is
the better hyped team, always have been, always will be. All hype, no
substance.
