I hope Bynum will play good for the lakers, even if I root for the celtics

wcsoldier:
yeah I agree with you Daygo , Fish will have trouble with Ray but that's the way we defended them the few last times we played them ... imo Brown should play more minutes , he has the athleticism to bother Ray shot release and to stay with him on drives ... too bad it wont happen because Phil is in love with Fisher and Brown making decision is very poor at times

because both niggas are starting PGs for their teams and rondo is 100x better
who will guard rondo tho? bryant?

farmar or brown will guard rondo, they're just as young and quick

but their shitty defenders only thing better about them than fisher is their quickness, its gonna be kobe guarding rondo just like the whole westbrook match up, im sure fishers gonna try guarding him in the first starting minutes.

It could happen...if the Celtics get Fish in foul trouble. But yeah sticking a more athletic player on Allen will always be good.  Not to mention someone like Brown who can sprint down the court for a long outlet pass as soon as the shot goes up. Whoever is defending Allen will be guarding the three point line and not really be expected to crash the boards.

I am saying this right here right now. Kobe's legacy is on the line as a great Lakers.

IF the Lakers win this final series against the Celtics and Kobe ends up with one more ring after this, I will be the first to stand up and call Kobe Bryant the greatest Laker to ever play the game.

IF the Lakers lost this finals series against the Celtics, I don't care if Kobe wins 3 more rings, Kobe can never be the greatest Laker ever without beating the Celtics.

When you look at the history, great Lakers like Jerry West, Elgin Baylor and Wilt Chamberlain tried and tried and tried to beat the Celtics. When it looked like they could, they lost. Magic Johnson could not beat the Celtics on his first try. They called it the Celtics curse. Then Magic's Lakers beat the Celtics twice to break the curse and finally add some justification to call this a rivalry. Now it's Kobe's turn. Kobe's first time against the Celtics ended like every great Laker's first time, he lead his team to failure. But, if Kobe can redeem himself, and he can beat the Celtics, then Kobe deserves his place next to Magic as unquestionably the two greatest Lakers ever. This rivalry is that important. Sadly for Shaq, he never had the chance to beat the Celtics, but Kobe does, and to bring a Finals victory over Boston is something that lives Laker fans minds, and makes them legendary.
