credit doc rivers for fucking with his bench rotation from 8 to 10 players, his in game adjustments are not so good either, thats why they have so much trouble closing out.

^^ Me too. I would rather be the perceived underdog than a *force of destiny* every time. Nothing shall be taken for granted. And with the first two games in Boston . . . shewsh. This series will be a mind-roiler from front to back! Exciting stuff! Go Lakers.

while you point out that the celtics have had a rougher go of it in the playoffs, keep in mind their lack of playoff experience as compared to the lakers. this was a team that won 24 games last year. but this celtics team looks a lot different after finally getting their first road win in detroit...and then overcoming a 10 point 4th quarter deficit to clinch, again on the road. also, while it can be argued that regular season matchups aren't very telling of how a playoff series will go, the celtics beat the lakers in both games pretty handedly (esp. the 80s night letdown at staples) i know you laker fans are on top of the world, but i'm sensing some cockiness in LA. watch out.
