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.

It'll be an interesting match for sure. Lakers win. No blowout though.

My prediction: Lakers in 6.

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.

People forget that the nugget's D is not existent.

Lakers in 4 or 5.

a few close games but lakers should be dominating.

(this is all if we remain healthy)

Edit:

Sorry I predicted the whole series.

For game 1 I say lakers will take it by 10-20.
