Let's have your predictions. I say LA in 6. But then I again, maybe I shouldn't underestimate Ron Jeremy and Superman. Let's hear some predictions.
I think Lakers win. The Magic can win if, and it's a big if, they hit the 3s like in the Cavs series. I know everyone wanted a Kobe/LeBron finals, but i think Orlando will give the Lakers a better series. Lakers in 6.
After LeBron hit that game winning 3 at the buzzer.....EVERYONE said that LeBron is the best player in the league and is better than Kobe. Now, I predict that people will back away from that stance and lean more toward Kobe. When it comes to conversations like this, sports fans (for the most part) are very fickle. It's the "what have you done for me lately" approach. Watch...the media and the fans will swing from Kobe's jock once again................and soon. I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with it. I get sucked up into the same conjecture. I'm as guilty of it as anyone else. I like Kobe (used to hate him) and I like LeBron. Both of them are nasty.

I think you have a point but Lebron isn't helping himself any with his behavior and commentary after the game. Avoiding the handshake left room for doubts about sportsmanship but his explanation removed the doubts. Nobody likes to lose but wow, what an attitude.
lebrons probably a pretty good guy. it does seem that he is trying to give himself a certain image without earning it. his rant yesterday about how "lebron" doesnt know pressure was something out of a poorly written sports movie. i think he walked to the locker room against the celtics last year as well.
