People are creatures of habits>>>>> LBJ will continue to lose it at the apex, the olympics, the finals, LBJ just can not get it done, it is his character. Kobe was the difference this past Olympics.
The Lakers will continue to allow teams to linger when they could have closed the deal, and the Magic will continue to find a way…not to say that Hawks, Mavericks, Denver and Spurs are non factors, but, anything is possible if Lakers overlook their opponents!!! They have a history of it!! Kobe has a history of it!!! Kobe’s teams have lost a series after being up 3-1, they have lost to Detroit after being unanimously chosen favorite, again favorites against Boston two years ago….and now they are favorites again….it never worries me when they are the underdog, it is when they are FAVORITES that I am most rattled. It is a trademark of Kobe.
I LOVE Kobe, Idolize his dedication, but, it is his nature to beat down naysayers and relax on top. He loves proving people wrong. KOBE>>>ITS A NEW GAME!!! YOU ARE NOT ON TOP NOW>>> YOU MUST PROVE IT AGAIN!!!! Show the world you ARE as none other can be. WIELD YOUR TEAM AS only you can!!!

I am a Laker Hater with a capital “H”!! But I am an objective fan of the game of basketball who so happens to reside in the LA area.
I think that the Cavs will implode and choke like they did last year and not even make it to the finals. With all the star power and team chemistry that exist in Cleveland they will be under the most pressure to win a championship.
In order for L.B.J. to legitimately earn the ‘greatest’ moniker and game cred, Lebron has to win it this year. After being in the finals once and getting to the Eastern finals twice, it’s time for ‘Bron to take it to the next step. Pressure is a funny thing, you know, and I feel strongly that the Cavs will buckle under again.
Orlando will emerge out of the East to face the Lakers in which the Purple and Gold will win in 7.

Can L.A. flip the switch?
Absolutely.
I’m not questioning this team’s desire. I’m just wondering if teams like Orlando, Dallas and Cleveland want it more.
Here’s my playoffs breakdown if you’re so inclined.
