2011 Playoffs: (2) Lakers vs. (7) Hornets

Postby Lamrock on Thu Apr 14, 2011 2:35 pm

Unless the Lakers somehow blow a 16 point fourth quarter lead in the final Excremento game (and the Clippers don't blow a 20 point lead in a game in which the other team wants to lose), this is a series. I reckon it'll be the only sweep of the first round. I love Carl Landry but without David West, the Hornets just aren't that good. They have no bench and CP3, while still great, isn't what he was.

Lakers in 4.

Lakers in 5 due to one game where Kobe will jack shots more so than usual leading to a Lakers loss.

Lakers in 5.

Chris Paul will have a ridiculous series against Fisher and Chicken-pox Blake, but ultimately, the Hornets have no-one who can guard Kobe Bryant or Pau. The 1 game will be an aberration probably somehow caused by Ron Artest.

Lakers in five. Even though they've broken their losing streak and finished the season on a more positive note, they're still yet to "flip the switch", so I think the Hornets will take one and give them a couple of hard fought victories but ultimately, the Lakers will be moving on.

Lakers in 6, with 2 blowout losses causing a lot of doubt.

I hope Steve Blake gives Kobe, Gasol, and Bynum chicken pox. If not, then Lakers in 5 or 6. I chose 6 because Bynum hurt his knee again.

It's okay that Bynum is out. Who else on the Hornets would defend him? Mbenga? :lol:
