FINALLY were not facing those damn suns anymore. Lets kick this post season off with a bang and set the tone with a blowout.

126-108 Lakers.

What, already?

Alright, here's my take. They will score over 100. We'll score over 110, and win this game. I don't think it will be a blowout - just a solid win. Radman or Sasha are going to have some open shots. If they hit them - it will be over early.

i remember that one time when radman lit them up hitting threes and all. hopefully we can knock down all the open shots cuz they leave ppl wide open and if we dont they will. farmer, fisher, radman, and sasha could win the series for us.

i feel the exact same way , even though we have a good chance of beating them, im just sick and tired of seeing their faces.

I'm guessing 116-106 Lakers. Should be a very entertaining game with lots of offense, but the Lakers pull away in the 4th and build a lead too large for AI and Melo to overcome.

I can't wait for Sunday, it's been a long 4 years since the Lakers were favored to win a playoff series and I am extremely excited to finally see them get the first of the 16 wins they need for the title :jam2:

I am expecting Denver's intensity to outmatch us, and have them upset us in the first game in a close one.

117-109 Nuggets
Iverson with 33
Carmelo with 28
Kobe with 35 on bad shooting

I know, weird... just feeling an upset in the first game, I do expect us to run four straight on them after this.

n'importe naouak

it's just a vibe im getting from this, I wouldn't be surprised at all if we won.

it's a feeling i've always had in sports, I always expect the underdog to shock in some ways, and I think that's how the nuggets will. And let's face it our team has a fat cad syndrome, better to have it bite us at the beginning of a the 1st round against a team we can sweep than later.
