Do you question Bynum's desire? The great ones, eg. Kobe, bring their A game practically every night. Seems that Bynum has a great game and then is content with that.

Well if Andrew is there in 2 years when Kobe's not can you imagine building a team around Andrew
Well would have to say Bynum won't have as much of an impact as Kobe because the NBA has become a guard oriented league

oh, i see there was a separate thread. you're faster, steve.
Pau's recent career average is 19 ppg. Game 6 he had only 3. Not a good stat. Like when Garnett scores 3 points in any Celtic game, I'd be surprised if the C's would win that game.
More Mike Brown, thumbs up or thumbs down?

Just like Game 7 against the C's, home court advantage will be the deciding factor. That and MWP again being the savior!
... and Blake and Gasol showed up.
Wow indeed, Steve. I was ready to concede an 0-1 series for the C's at the 4th as I had to go out but I learned later on that the C's won by 1. Rondo is spurring energy for the old guys and we take a win one at a time. Same for your Lakers, congrats to them for advancing and today they played at their capabilities. And yeah, Metta helped a lot. His D is actually very good. Finally, the West will have a 2nd round game.

The big question is whether a wek off for OKC will be a positive or negative factor. Similarly for the SAS

Watching the nuggs this past series IMO they are close to being a contender. No one can match their speed or three point shooters. Ty Lawson is an amazing young player along with Faride. George Karl is an excellent and seasoned coach who really gets into their heads in the time outs.
Agreed, Steve. I am surprised by their performance and Karl indeed is a very good coach who knows and loves basketball a lot. How he made this team jell is an achievement in itself.
And the Clippers advance. The LA/LA dream is still alive. They showed some spunk by winning game 7 on the road. And Kenyon Martin finally showed up when it mattered.

Watching the replay of the Clips clincher, Coach Vinny was commended for staying with KM and benching all-star Griffin as KM was very effective down the line and was the Clipper with the most playoff experience. And Blake was smiling and feeling happy for the team from the bench as they win and move on. That's the spirit.
I watched most of the games between the Griz and the Clips - I missed today's
I now am of the opinion that nobody wants to win a game (and, thus, is willing to do whatever it takes) more than Kobe, but CP3 is right there next to him. These 2 guys are nails. Absolutely driven. Way more than D Wade, more than KD, more than, well anyone. Maybe David Stern knew this last summer because if that trade goes through I say the Lakers win the title.

Interesting thought, Ron. And you're right about CP3. Tonight he was not going to be denied. It was a very very physical game, with lots of bumps and no calls as van Gundy would point out - Play On! But I now see the value of a CP3. The guy is tougher than I thought. And the thought of him beside Kobe today - Wow!
