I'm jumping ship and going with Detroit from here on out. The Lakers are a joke. They had trouble putting down the rockets who played like a joke in the playoffs. They squeaked out a victory against San Antonio. Don't even get me started with the T'Wolves series because had Cassell not been injured I guarentee the Lakers would be at home watching right now.
Not like Detroit beat any good teams either, the East was a joke. But this is seriously pathetic. I could probably run "the Glove" right now, cause man does he suck. And at the same time Chauncey is stepping up huge for the Pistons. Before the game they showed states how GP has scored 5 points on 2/7 shooting and his assist/TO ratio was 6/5 where Chauncey has 45 points on and a 15-5 assist/to ratio. Karl is gimped out and old, looks like he will never get that bling.
Whats going to ultimately do in the Lakers is the fact they have no bench. Fisher is the only respectable person coming off it for them. Walton and Rush can be good, but they've each had ONE good game all playoffs, and pretty much all season, that doesn't make them viable options during the finals. Not saying the Pistons bench is any better, but thats not how their squad works anyways. All the Pistons really have to do is minimize what Shaq and Kobe can do, because the rest of the Lakers are fucking up big time.
As it goes though, its still to early to count the Lakers out. But seriously, what a joke of a team they are.
