Hahaha. I hate to say it, but the NBA champ is coming out of the West. Being a SoCal guy, I am certain that the Lakers will make it fo' in a row. But if by some catastrophe they don't, then Sac-to, Big D, or San Antone will still be better than the best team in the East.
It's just like it was in the 90s when everyone knew that whoever came out of the west was just a sacrificial lamb for MJ and Co. It's just reversed now.[/b][/quote]Well, Don Corpuzzi, since this is the second time you and I have banged heads over your Lakers vs. my Nets in the same thread no less, I will make you an offer you can't refuse:
Find your own way to New Jersey for game 7 of the 2002-2003 NBA finals, and I will personally provide you with a ticket to the game so you can watch your Lakers go down!
