I think that is the most intelligent thing you have ever said there Deberg. For some reason I expected a "but Kobe is going down this fall" thrown in there somewhere.

There's no way the T-Wolves win this series. They have no big men. Shaq is going to dominate.

That's why we have Mr. Sniper on our side.

2 week signature bet too, I'm lookin forward to that.

Tonight I predict the Lakers may come out a little slow but should even things up by half. They will have a strong third quarter and pull ahead and try to hold on in the 4th. They will be successful and go up 1-0 in this series.

I think this first game tonight will pretty much tell the whole story about the rest of the series. Will the Lakers have their same edge? Will the Wolves be able to hold Shaq to under 30 pts/game? Are the Wolves good enough to stay in this til the very end?

I'm looking for some key matchups. Minnesota will be doing CBC (Center by committee). Flip basically says he'll limit Ervin Johnson's time, increase Madson's, and he'll give Kandi another shot, despite his horrible play in the Kings series. Minnesota won 2 of the 3 games against the Lakers in the regular season with Kandi starting.

Sprewell will have to perform like the Game 5 of the Sactown series every game. He doesn't have to get 30-some points every game, but he's got to be all over the court and fully energized the whole game.

And of course, we're going to have to maximize the small advantage of Mailman vs. KG.

Do these things, and we can win our home games. Like the Sactown series, we can't make stupid plays, and we have to take advantage when the other team isn't fully in the game.

A lot to do, but that's basically what the Wolves have to do to beat the Lakers.

I like Maddog and he came up huge for you on the O boards against sac. Although Madsen will always get his rebounds and will always bring your team energy I don't see him having the same impact as he did against the Queens. He is a liability when it comes to scoring too. Expect the Lakers to not even cover him unless he takes it to the rim. That will free them up to try and cover those damn pick and rolls more. Cassell better not even try to drive into the paint with his back like that either. If he does his first game may be his last in this series. Expect to see a Lakers team you have never seen play the Timberpups especially on D. The last time they played each other would be the best example I can think of. Don't forget the Lakers didn't have Shaq for one game and Kobe for another when they played earlier this season.

Put any thoughts into that sig line SNR?

Can I be a Lakers fan now? I mean, I AM from California. Can I be a Lakers fan? I'm going to root for the Lakers.

Why are they still the Lakers anyway? There are like NO FUGGIN Lakes anywhere near Los Angeles. They maintained their nickname from Minnesota, hey, now that would be poetic justice, a Minnesota team eliminating the Lakers.

They should rename themselves to the Los Angeles Quakers, as in Earth Quakes.

Sure you can be Lakers fan, all you have to do is convert. That being said I think the Los Angeles Drive by's with an Uzi symbol would rock. We need to replace those pussies up there in Washington anyway that bent to the PC when they changed from the bullets to the jizards.

That was weak man, even for a disgrunteled Queens fan. nlm

There has been noise about him going to Sac it will be interesting hear your story change if that's the case.

I wonder where all those pups fans are today?

Whos disgruntled? I could give a fug about the Queens. I wanted them to win, but the deserved to lose, like a big dog. Jim Rome had the best take on their sorry chit this morning on my way into work.

Its over, the windows closed, they cannot close the deal. They are chokers. Any fan that has emotion vested in them is an equal loser.
