Well I told you that Parker would also toast Payton the same way that Francis did as both can take him off the dribble at will. Payton has lost a lot and just flat out looks old. I think he knows it too and he's pressing, which even makes things worse for him. The Lakers role plaers don't know their roles as they're just a bunch of individual talents. On the other hand, the Spurs know how to play as a team, and that's why they'll take out the Lakers in 6 or less.
BIG DADDY, if you just stepped back and looked at the situation for what it is, you would see a vastly overated team in the Lakers who could be taken out by the Pacers, or by any team that plays team basketball...
BTW, Shaq has really slowed down too. All Time best Center? No way in HELL. I'd say he's the 6th best at best behind Chamberlin, Jabbar, Olajuwon, Russel, and Robinson. Shoot, even Ewing had more game than Shaq.
