Lakers in 6 or even 5 but naww wolves are stronger this year. Lakers in 6
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: Don Jacob on May 20, 2004, 10:24:32 PM
i say the lakers in 6


both teams have match up problems


wolves- no one on the lakers are going to be able to guard garnett efficiently...he's too quick for malone and shaq

lakers-but on the same flip tip, and like every team in the NBA, no one on the wolves will be able to guard shaq....this series you should see shaq explode, the wolves have players the size of shaqs arms so it'd be a no brainer to pound it down to him

the key for the laker to win this series is keep the wolves off the boards.....garnett has been a killer on the boards and those 2nd chance shots will kill the lakers...malone and shaq need to pick up the rebounding efforts. also we need to make sure spree and cassell don't get hot, take em out of the game like tony parker......these two players are why the wolves are even out of the first round , garnett is a great player but he's the worst leader, he can get 31 and 21 but if cassell and spree arn't doing nothin....the wolves arn't doing nothing.
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: .:DayGoStyLz:. on May 20, 2004, 10:32:49 PM
hopefully wolves in 4 lol but i doubt it...

La in 6, maybe even 5...unless injured Cassell can go crazy in this series the wolves dont stand a chance...
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: Don Jacob on May 20, 2004, 10:54:02 PM
i think cassell  will have a good  series regardless his injury....i mean he was doing pretty well against mike bibby, ( i love payton and all but..) this series should be a lil easier for him
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: A-Trak on May 20, 2004, 11:29:10 PM
Lakers in 7.

Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves

Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: Don Jacob on May 23, 2004, 12:07:05 AM
wow after watching the first game and hearing that cassell won't play game 2 .......this series has a GOOD damn chance of being a sweep!
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: Bramsterdam (see ya) on May 23, 2004, 10:35:07 AM
lakers.. in 5 i think, maybe 6 though
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: On The Edge of Insanity on May 23, 2004, 10:50:17 AM
Well I think Sacremento would have given Lakers a good series, they've played LA as good as any other side has this season. Considering its the T-Wolves I'll say 4-1 Lakers
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 23, 2004, 09:21:56 PM
1-1 :(

lol yup, Cassel was out early in the game and they kept sending shaq to the FT line. ;D...I knew my T-Wolves would bounceback. NOw Hopefully we win at least one game at LA.

But the T-Wolves beat Sacremento...

And T-Wolves beat LA Lakers 3 times out of there 4 meetings in the regular season
they have 4 wins and 2 loses this eason (including Playoffs) vs lakers
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: JTSimon on May 24, 2004, 11:50:03 AM
1-1 :(

lol you know I'm happy  :D ;D
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: E. J. Rizo on May 24, 2004, 12:37:36 PM
1-1 but its not even a bad thing the lakers did what they have to do and thats steal homecourt advantage by taking atleast one game on the road....two games coming up in LA.....Lakers are still in good shape....dont expect to have a shitty game by shaq again.....
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: Doggystylin on May 25, 2004, 02:22:31 PM
and i wouldnt say shaq had a bad game, they just didnt give him the ball enough

I agree big time
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: Don Jacob on May 26, 2004, 03:04:24 AM
i think this series will be harder than indiana or detroit


indiana will get KILLED by the lakers.....it'd be a lesser T-wolves. sure they got j. o'neal .....but the rest of the team isn't a threat to the lakers like cassell and spree....ron artest is good on the d....but he's not going to see kobe in no way shape or form, just ask bruce bowen. Malone and Shaq will MOLEST that front court.

detroit will supress the lakers inside game a LIL bit....but c'mon ben wallace will be facing the OTHER o'neal  here.  Ben wallace might be the second strongest player in the league......but oh wait who's the first....oh that's right shaq.....and malone ain't no twerp neither. even if detroit busts out with that "no fly zone" crap we still got kobe on the perimeter who can create any damn shot he wants....


again whoever comes out of the west (most likely the lakers) is going to win it all......the finals is nothing more than a charity game anymore

Keep dreaming...The series against the Spurs was really the championship series...T-Wolves and Pacers don't stand a chance...Lakers should easily take it over Minnesota, and take it over Indiana even easier...If you know basketball, you know Minnesota is a better team than Indiana. ;)
Title: Re:Lakers vs Timberwolves
Post by: Montana00 on May 26, 2004, 04:14:59 PM
Pistons v. Pacers could go either way.

But no matter what happens. Lakers will win.

Ben wallace is a great defenseman. But shaq is too powerful.
Alot of people underestimate Karl....Rasheed will soon know malones true power :)
Kobe is one of the best players in the NBA, and hamilton wont be able to stop him. Gary payton is a great defenseman, and hes got billups wrapped up. After game 3 im starting to get back into his offensive side.

Tayshaun prince and george are both mediocre players.....who gives a shit about them.

They didn't impress you by placing 2nd in the west with mad injuries throughout the season? It must take a lot to impress you...At least if that didn't impress you, beating the Spurs 4 games in a row shoulda'. :-\
