Im going to predict the rivalry. Lakers against Celtics in the finals. A little revenge for a hungry Lakers team. I can't say enough how much Bynum and Ariza change things, that would make for a hell of a finals. Though Kobe V Lebron would be amazing, imagine a game 7 coming down to the last possesion. Of course Kobe nailing the game winner with a Jordan-esque like fist pump.

as for the west, id like the suns and spurs go at it (who's the best oldies/veteran team, haha) while lakers face the hornets (and hopefully the hornets would be back in their fighting form at that time).

a showdown between kobe and lebron in the finals would be a hell of a series, since both of them has this burden on being who's the next great thing after MJ. But i wouldnt mind a boston-san antonio finals either. i'd see two great proud teams going against each other. pure team play, pure excellence form tim and KG. a battle of which is the best BIG 3 in the league.

i just appreciate basketball as much as anyone does.

THAT TEAM WAS HORRIFIC. SMUSH, KWAME, WALTON, ODOM! That, you can use as an excuse, to an extent. But I know, it gets me pissed to see Kobe do that.

Thats where its coming from. Games like last night against the Bobcats, Kobe fouled out up by 3, and the Lakers D gave up a 3, when all they had to do was gaurd the lines. On the bench it looked like he lashed out at Odom for steppin back a foot or 2 and not gaurding Boris Diaw. Who wouldnt be pissed? I would of at least stepped in his grill, you can't make those mistakes. Kobe made some big "trust" passes down the stretch to Fisher and Sasha, he believes in his teamates, though sometimes it seems like his teamates dont believe that. Kobe has the right pieces, I wouldnt say better than Jordan. I would rather have another playmaker/can get his own shot (Pippen), than 2 big men with Kobe. I honestly feel that KB24 and Phil are gonna do this thing, and all this "Kobe can't get it done without Shaq" BS can stop. (CAN I SAY SHAQ NEED A CLUTCH GAURD TO HIT CLUTCH SHOTS AND NEVER CHALLENGED JORDAN WHEN HE WAS ON THE MAGIC)

MJ had a mystique about him, obviously, and was the best leader off all time, alongside Bill Russel. If Kobe has any flaws in his game, it would be leadership. But I must tell you he has vastly improved it, and has the pieces to hoist another title as well as his first finals MVP.

As i was saying, im just tired of all these MJ comparisons they give to lebron and kobe. all three of them possess mad skills that can will to take over games when needed (e.g. kobe in phili finals & olympics against spain and lebron in detroit conf finals). however, MJ surpasses them all by giving boost on his teammates development and confidence. imagine, steve kerr asked for the ball for the game winner during the finals with utah... that's confidence.

as for the league today, leadership still plays a big part on to winning. nash inspired the suns (and even the league for the matter) to be an offensive force, KG brought out toughness in boston, duncan gave the spurs a winning tradition (tp flourished under this), howard makes his team hustle out every night, and paul just made his team believe they can win.

lebron and kobe may have done this to their team, but i guess this belief only comes from the fact that they can "CARRY" their team. KG did that before in Minnesota, but he just got tired and gave up after.

sure, the lakers last year toughed it out against boston. but the team just gave up on the last game. PLEASE SEE ALSO THE SERIES AGAINST THE SUNS when kobe stopped being a leader and they lost to the suns though they lead 3-1. im no kobe hater, in fact im a kobe fan. but if he does things like these, these would just impede his destiny for greatness and would just make his skills worthless. right now, though he has the right pieces in LA (even better than what MJ had, and i believe kobe can't lead the bulls with his attitude), unless kobe can lead them all the way, i still doubt theyd win.

kobe is still in his prime, and can still prove me wrong.

im just waiting.
