Did you bother to read the rest of the post, where, in my very next sentence, I said I was wrong about the Cavs?


I'm betting the Lakers are a little bit nervous about having to face the Magic instead of the Cavs. The formula for beating the Cavs is pretty straight forward. Kobe and LeBron would have gone back and forth (I give the edge to Kobe and his experience). As long as they kept LeBron from having more than 1 or 2 monster games, the Lakers are far more talented, with a deeper bench, than the Cavs at every other position.

The Magic, as Cleveland learned, is a little less straight forward of a matchup. Much more balanced, the kind of team the Lakers have struggled against this season. Should be a good series.
