NBA Finals: Lakers vs. Nets

How much did you watch? 2 minutes of the whole series? MacCulloch is like 7\'0" and weighs close to 300 pounds.

Well he hardly played and is probably 60 overall

He\'s a starter....he played alot...well average minutes i should say.

Lakers in 4-7 games

McCulloch is the best chance the Nets have to contain Shaq.  As much as I want to see the Nets win, I highly doubt it\'s gonna happen.  Shaq and Kobe are gonna dominate.

I personally think that, baring foul trouble, Martin has a better chance at guarding Shaq.  He\'s smaller, but he\'s more physical.  Then again, they could also just double team him every time he touches the ball...and probably will.

Martin should play just like the thug Cincinnati man he is.  And if they even sorta contain Shaq this will be a good series.  The Nets bench out scores the lakers bench 2 to 1.

He can\'t compare with Shaq though. MacCulloch doesn\'t even rank in the top 10 centers in the league, Shaq will average 40 a night.

And if you double Shaq that leaves Horry open.

I\'d rather take my chances with Horry and attempt to contain Shaq.  Horry won\'t hit them all, Shaq hits a lot.  You gotta pick your poison I guess.

Either way, I just can\'t see how the Lakers can even lose one game as of now. Perhaps the Nets might steal one, but I just see a sweep o\'comin.

I\'ll tell you how: hot shooting.  If the Nets can come out one night, and shoot the lights out, they have a very good chance of winning.

edit-800 posts...woo!

So far with only 6 minutes gone by the Lakers are handing the Nets their @sses on silver plates. Nets can\'t seem to do anything at all, and I haven\'t seen the Lakers play so easily since the regular season.

Sweep. Lakers three peat. I\'m already calling this.

Shockwaves, yeah shooting, but will the Lakers allow the Nets to shoot them out? I doubt it, Shaq is invincible against MacCulloch and well, if your watching the game so far, I\'m playing a guessing game in how the Nets can ever even win 1.

If the Nets are going to play the rest of the series like this, not only will the Lakers 3 peat, but they will also become one very dull series. :yawn:

Not if your a Laker fan... Nothing better than watching Shaq do a reverse layup or people off the bench shutting down the Nets starters.

I\'ve had enough good series watching the Lakers slosh through the West. It feels good to watch the Lakers dominate games again.

Kidd who?

Well, the Nets are playing horribly.  Hopefully they can get themselves together.  Anyway, they have had a lot of open shots.  They just didn\'t take them, or missed them.  Hell, there was no one within 10 feet of Martin for most of the 1st quarter.

And as for Kidd who...Kidd hasn\'t been that bad.  Kidd will play well in this series.  He\'s the rightful MVP this year, and in some ways (as in ball distrubuting, passing, etc) he is the best player on the court.
