Western Conference Finals - (1) Los Angeles Lakers vs (3) Phoenix Suns

[leor_77]

I didn't see this thread as of yet, so I decided to start it. Phoenix is playing very well right now, and is very deep, but I think that the size/length of the Lakers will be too much. Lakers in 6.

There isn't one because there's still a week until the first game.......

and this is a weak gameday thread...

I was going to ask where it was, but then again the Lakers won just last night and there is still a week until the first game. I'm pretty sure they assigned someone to make the thread btw, so I doubt this holds up...

Then start your own, asshole.

Chill out, I was just saying because if you look at all the other threads they are well done. I mean you could of thrown more than a couple of obvious sentences up there.

Well this is a Cavs forum and Im okay with this up so we can at least talk about it.

Lakers will dominate this series.

if the Suns have Lopez i think the Lakers will be challenged upfront. Amare, Frey, Lopez and Amundson are not a bad front line. Remember that Bynum is hurt. Besides Kobe vs Grant Hill, and the HC advantage, where do the Lakers have an advantage?

PG Big Advantage Suns
SG Big Advantage Lakers
SF- Advantage Suns
Front Line- Small Advantage LA
Bench- Major Advantage Suns
play as of the last 2 months- Advantage Suns

I have a feeling the Suns are this years Orlando. I may be dead wrong but I am going with Suns in 6, what the hell. Honestly, the Lakers should be favored, but I am going to go out on a limb.

You are probably right but I just have a feeling that the Suns will continue to play over their heads.
If they can get physical with Gasol and Bynum (lopez and frey are underrated defenders) and Richardson continues to play at a high level, this series should be a ton of fun.

Sucks we have to wait until Monday. Really TNT had a slot open for Sat Night, why the wait?

To top it off game 2 is wed and game 3 is not until Sunday. Crazy lag time!

Well Frye sucks defensively. Lopez is a pretty good defender. Amare hated defense but has been better. Collins can get in to try to injure Bynum.

The biggest key for the Suns will be J-Rich and if he can catch fire. Kobe/Ron need to shut him down.

 

[Absinthe]

The Lakers will kill the Suns. I might be wrong, but the Lakers will simply pound the ball inside, get the Suns' bigs in trouble, and then the game is over.

^Hope you're right about this... unlike LAST time

This won't be a sweep. The Lakers will win, but Utah might win both of the games at Utah.

lol

 

[Seize]

Lakers in 5. If the Lakers keep improving as a team...and Gasol keeps playing like this, it might even be a sweep. I may just be looking down on the Suns though...

Suns in 6...
