There’s no way Boston has a chance against Kobe and the Lakers. Sorry, just not possible. Kobe is not going to let anyone stand in his way this year. Plus, there’s no way the Celtics can play with the Lakers. Top to bottom, the Lakers are better. Plus, come on, Phil against Doc? Really? This is what everyone is so excited about?

I can see Phil Jackson walking the sidelines, Darth Vader music playing in the background. He looks over at a visibly scared Doc Rivers and Force Chokes him across the Staples Center.
All Star Wars references aside, the combination of Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant will be too much for the Celts to handle. Kobe is hands-down the best basketball player in the world, and has the rare ability of being able to decide exactly when and how he will singlehandedly beat you. The Celtics don’t have anyone who can even come close to Kobe.

Kobe speaks Italian and I like that. Pau Gasol is cool because he just took an American name, dropped an “l” off the end, and called himself Spanish. Oh, and now all of a sudden everyone seems to be running over to hop on the Laker bandwagon…and I certainly am not going to be the last one to jump on that train.

There’s still reason to believe that Boston can play these games to win and maybe pull it off. The Lakers have been playing the Spurs whose game play couldn’t be more different than Boston’s; the Lakers are going to need time to adjust (time they don’t have) and Rivers is going to send as many looks at them as he can. The Celtic’s have proven two things in the series against the Pistons. One we already knew, they suck on the road. Two, they can win on the road when the fates align. The Boston Celtics will win the NBA finals in six games, case closed.
