Blown leads

[douglas342 at aol.com]

I watched the second half of the LA-Spur game and was struck by the difference in defensive intensity in the two series.? The Lakers and Spurs both seemed to get a decent number of relatively open shots, but the Celtics and Pistons have to scramble for anything vaguely resembling an open look.

As for a finals matchup against LA, yeah, the Cs won both regular season meetings, but Gasol hadn't joined the Lakers yet.? All bets are off, and as much as I detest him, I wonder to myself if there is anything Kobe Bryant can't do on a basketball court.

The Lakers are playing well but San Antonio looks real slow and they have seen 
any defense like the C's or Pistons
Perk dominated Bynum earlier in the year, he,?Garnett,?PJ & Leon will need to 
own the paint, and reduce the number of second attempts

The Fakers can't beat Celtics or the Pistons.? That's the difference.
What we're watching is the real Finals.

<But I'll tell you MY answer, which is affected by my living in the Land of the 
Beast (LA):? the pain of losing in the ECF to Detroit would be far easier to 
handle than the pain of being forced to watch Kobe and entire LA sports media 
machine?gloat about beating the Celtics for the next four months or so.>
