		<description>I think Gasol is worthy of being named the best passing big man in the NBA. His offensive game is a true joy to watch. </description>

		<description>Mr. Lowe writes like a true fan of basketball, rather than a mere fanboy of one team or another. I&#039;m on the opposite side of the court, a Laker fan from the old days. Paul Pierce is the craftiest player alive. Russell is a giant. Larry Bird one of my favorite players. I &quot;hate&quot; them all, and admire them even more. The highlights of my basketball life occurred  watching the Lakers-Celtics games in the 80&#039;s. Great opponent, great games, great victories, great defeats. I can barely remember who the Shaq-Kobe Lakers beat for their championships. Any victory over the Celtics is unforgettable. I&#039;m sure Celtics fans feel the same way about the Lakers; you&#039;d rather beat them than anybody else.</description>

		<description>Celtic fans I wanted the Lakers and Celtics in the finals
again just to shut some of you haters your team prior to last year was a joke for 20+ years. The Lakers were always in the mix and continue to be the most successful NBA team in the league, so stop your hate AND RESPECT the LOGO that&#039;s right is a LAKER 
peace!!!!</description>

		<description>Amazing, such a dignified and eloquent piece - from a fan of the eternal enemy no less, yet there still exist blights upon the NBA like the moron who commented immediately prior to this.
perkisabeast - really?  Perhaps posts like this are just a cover for some inadequacies you&#039;re facing in your life.
I pity you.</description>

		<description>You should quietly fall on a sword. Never compliment the Fakers and their band of frontrunning d-bags. I wouldn&#039;t urinate on Phil Jackson if he was on fire. They can go suck it and their fans can burn in that pit they call a city. 

If they do manage to not choke this one away it will merely be sauce for our ultimate revenge. And if I ever run into the gutless puke who spoke that way about Phil Jackson I will make sure to run over him repeatedly with my car.</description>

		<description>Another Lakers fan here. Wonderful piece, I&#039;ve also enjoyed watching Gasol play since the trade (probably a little more than you have ;) ), and it is frustrating to only see them put together this sort of game only every few weeks, when they could be carving up the league on a nightly basis. 

I&#039;m intrigued about this Finals matchup, as the Lakers match up significantly better to the Magic than the Cavs did--the Magic had mismatches all over the floor, and a relatively good neutralizing defender of LeBron in Pietrus&#039; tough defense. He still got his points, but had to work a lot harder for them--shades of Kobe vs. Tayshaun Prince in the &#039;04 Finals (although Kobe worked hard and still didn&#039;t score, LeBron is a mutant freak who will get his regardless). 

If Orlando&#039;s shooters get hot, all bets are off, but as long as Odom and Ariza are 80% or better (and 6 days off should help both of them out), I like the Lakers&#039; chances. 

What I&#039;m most happy about is not seeing Anderson Varejao in the Finals, against anyone. He is perhaps my least favorite player to watch in that he gets away with TONS of contact on the defensive end and on the glass, and rarely gets whistled for it. Apparently it was decided he&#039;s an &quot;energy&quot; player, which means that playing wildly is normal and accepted for him. Game 6 was a rare exception in that he picked up 2 quick ones, which altered the game significantly in Orlando&#039;s favor.</description>
