don't over look this game. if Heat get Dragic back, it'll be a tough matchup. it's obvious their lacking of good PG play killed them in game 4 toward the end. Herro isn't a savvy PG as Dragic is. |

No doubt, we can't take this one for granted.
Miami is a proud, young, talented team. They won't give up; they will fight "tooth and nails" until the end tonight. |

Dragic is listed as doubtful and unlikely to play. And even if he does come back he will be more of a liability than an asset. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

Goran has no lateral movement. He tried to make one move and the pain was so intense he had to just go sit down and quit practicing. So no... |

Yeah given the Heat’s priority to bring Dragic back next year.. there not gonna risk bringing him back from a injury that could become worse if he plays on it, he is done for the series and rightfully so, they aren’t gonna win even if he plays, they can at least save his legs for next year. |

Expect the toughest fight out of all the playoff series thus far. Way more intense than Denver. Miami knows what the Mamba jerseys mean to us and they will also give their all to break our streak.
Hopefully the team is mentally and physically prepared for the South Beach onslaught.
Mamba on 3.. 1, 2, 3... Mamba!! |

They can fight all they want. If we don’t play terrible then we raise the trophy tomorrow. |

The Miami coach has been in the finals before. Did not he coach Lebron?
It will be a dogfight.
The key is the Lakers have ball and player movement. And don't play Lebron on 4. Without playoff Rondo it would always be Lebron on 4. Need a movement offense and use Lebron when it matters.
The defense has been good. Alternate between man and zone.
Adjust as needed. |

He not only coached Lebron but Spo is probably the best coach in the league right now |

Maybe just the delusional fantasy of a biased Laker fan but I'm seeing a blowout.
I expect to see the Lakers best game. High intensity defense, minimal TOs, above average 3pt shooting, winning the rebounding and 50/50 balls all game.
I expect the Lakers to be laser focused and exert their dominance early and often. As a team they want to end this, celebrate the championship and go home.
Lakers by 20+. |

I see it the same way honestly. I know it's not "classy" or whatever you want to say to look past a team since many are extremely superstitious but I personally don't believe anything we say on a forum matters as far as the Lakers performance on the court.
We'll see why the Lakers were such big favorites to start this series and end it in beautiful blowout fashion in respect to many of the older fans health.
I see them getting that double digit lead within the first 4-6 minutes and never looking back.... |
