Sports Sound Off – Who will prevail LA or Boston?
Who will prevail?? LA or Boston.
This rivalry is not Yanks vs. Socks, Ali vs. Frazier, and Affirmed vs. Aladyar (for the horse racing fans). Heck the NFL has these blood baths every week, CowBoy’s vs. Giants or Redskins, Steelers vs. Browns, but as far as the NBA is concerned, this is NIRVANA (translation: Kurt Colbain).
More Fun After The Bump
Break It Down
You decide:
BIG THREE vs. BIG ONE
KG vs.KOBE edge KOBE
Pierce vs. Gasol edge Pierce
Allen vs. Odom edge even
Doc Rivers vs. Jackson edge Jackson w/ 9 titles
Bench edge even LA’s been playing well Boston has the Vets
Boston had better win GAME ONE. Some series each game isn’t as important
While others series, it can make or break the outcome (see Suns vs. SA & SA. vs. LA)
Both teams got their MOJO working.
I think layoff will help Boston more than LA at least initially
My question I asked myself is: Can KG play out of his mind to win his first ring? I’m talking 30 & 16 every night. 22 & 10 isn’t getting it done PLUS shut down Defense on Gasol.
Allen’s gotta get 20-2 5(Hey Ray, just imagine you’re still w/ Sonics)
Cut off the Head and the body will die.
Kobe will be highly motivated. This will be another knock on Kobe in the Kobe vs. MJ discussion if he can’t get it done.
I heard Kobe is headed back to Colorado for some A-C-T-I-O-N.
I have never rooted for Boston, but this time with the Curse of the Bambino lifted, Boston is the Hot Team Sport Area in the U.S. w/ the Patriots and Red Socks doing MAJOR work.
I look for the Boston Celtics to go from last to first.

Must see TV
I don’t think it is possible to downplay this matchup.
It might not have the appeal as some of the others you mentioned to today’s fans, but historically it’s got to be one of the best.
I’m predicting Lakers in 5
It’s part optimism and part believing Boston doesnt have the heart to get the job done.
Boston had a hard time in every series with an iso player. Come on Joe Johnson & Lebron gave them work
You think they can hold Kobe?
I’m betting they won’t…
Look for Pierce to go off in the hometown. KG to psych himself out and take himself out the series.
Kobe, Lamar, and Paul will be crowned the Big 3 over the other guys.
The Lakers role players are playing fantastic. Playing with swagger and confidence
Come on man. Turiaf is giving quality minutes now
Again, Lakers in 5
Thats a bet
PROPS!

Man (Sad Face)
Boston looked okay last night
Not at all frightening
Laker’s didn’t seem as assertive
Bench bitched up big time
Now we’ve got to wait all weekend for the next one
Doh!

Boston has the tougher Front Court court but LA’s Back court is better. ( KB24 & Fisher) I think even after the game 1 lost if LA wins game 2 in Boston, LA is going to take this series. That is just my opinion. I will be rooting for LA also. I cannot stand Boston Sports teams . New England Patriots cheat to win, You cant find a fan of color at either Celtics games or Red Sox games..um whatelse.. Celtics fans broke into Bill Russels house and took a dump in his bed..The Red Sox where the last team to have a black player. Im no racist but um yeah…and like i said already SPY GATE!! 3 Championships of fraud..on that note GO Lakers..
