Both really good teams, but the Lakers are destined to win again. next year too, the its up for grabs.

I agree that the concern for the Spurs isn’t the losing streak, it’s facing the Lakers. The worry for Boston is squandering these games will mean a #2 or #3 seed, which means facing the gauntlet in the second round of the Miami Heat. Whoever gets out of that series will be tired and beat up heading into a series with Chicago. Getting the top seed allows them to work out the kinks against a much weaker #8 seed and avoiding Chicago/Miami in the second round.

The Celtics are a playoff bust team? I believe they’ve been to the finals two out of the last three seasons, winning it all in one of those trips. They’ve been considered “old” in all three of those seasons. Yep. Pretty awful. Complete bust. Might as well write them off now and just give the Bulls or the Lakers the title. No need to actually see how it plays out.

i hope the Lakers don’t finish 1st in the west. why? after a “should-win” 1st round match-up…i believe, i could be wrong, but at the 2nd round, they would meet the mavs, who would be a lot easier to beat than the thunder.
agree..only a fool would discounts the C’s the spurs.
