    Screw Hollinger. He predicted we would go 17-49 this season 17-49?!?! Get the fuck out. He bends over for Miami and Chicago just like 90 % of ESPN analysts. Listen, I’m afraid of the rejuvenated Knicks and the Bucks aren’t elite, but they aren’t the Charlotte Bobcats either. But this is the Boston freaking Celtics. We won’t let that happen to us, even if we are just a first round exit. Won’t happen. So again, screw Hollinger.

    And of course the first team he mentions when asked about the West playoff picture is the Lakers. What an idiot (putting it nicely)

    Another lame prediction that’s meaningless. And the Lakers with Sessions are significantly better so with their frontline power and Kobe they should be the favorites in the West. They handled the Mavs pretty easy last night. Go Cs…prove Hollinger’s an idiot.

      They’re better with Sessions, no doubt. And Bynum is in full on beast mode. If the twin towers stay healthy, they’ll be tough.

      Still think the Odom thing will come back to bite them, his scoring off the bench was vital in their Championship runs. I think come playoff time that lack of depth is really going to haunt them.

      I’m still putting my money on OKC, but that will be an interesting matchup,no doubt.

    Please James, don’t say positive things like that about the Lakers. My heart can’t take it.

      Sorry, it hurts me too. Fisher could not defend and this was a great pick-up whereby the Lakers got a speed freak that can defend, shoot the 3 and pass out assists. It sucks but I still believe we can beat them if we get the chance in a Finals. Bradley and RR will slow Sessions down and if we rebound properly we can win it all. We’re a long way from that but I like what I am seeing of late. Having lived 13 yrs in LA and 16 more in Santa Barbara I’ve witnessed way to many Laker titles for my life. At least I am old enough to have enjoyed all the beatings we put on West’s teams. Go Cs…

        Yeah, living in LA didn’t make losing to them in 2010 any better for me. God, that sucked.

    Brad, I’m also living in LA and yeah, it was horrible having to watch that parade. But unfortunately, the Lakers are going to make a very solid run. Hopefully OKC or Dallas will knock them out. And off subject here, but I love watching Tony Allen playing for Memphis. I miss that crazy bastard; he is lightning in a bottle, plays the game with tenacity.
