[Ross.Virant]

Share your Thoughts on the Exciting Game 7's Approaching..
1. DENVER NUGGETS @ LA LAKERS
&
2. LA CLIPPERS @ MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES


Who do you think Is going to win and Advance? Who is Going to have The Big Breakout GAMES In GAME 7? Someone from EACH WINNING TEAM will HAVE 1 BIGTIME/BREAKOUT PLAYER in Each series willing them to the Win.

Who will Will Each series and who will be The hero of Each team?

When/IF YOU ARE VOTING REMEMBER TO PICK OR CHECK BOTH OF YOUR TWO TEAMS TO ADVANCE AT ONCE, and THEN CLICK SUBMIT or VOTE. You Will Only BE ALLOWED TO CLICK VOTE or SUBMIT ONE TIME ONLY, BUT YOU CAN PICK THE TWO TEAMS YOU THINK Will Advance at the SAME Time and then VOTE.

1. DENVER VS. LAKERS -
Leaning Slightly towards Lakers to take this one with home court giving them an edge. I think Denver is is more motivated in a sense though.. Lakers have Kobe Bryant and Expect a Big Game from him as usual, But Kobe Big or Not, Bynum and Gasol Must Have Good-Great games To Advance. If Gasol or BYNUM comes up Small look for Denver to win, but only 1 of the 2 Big men on LA really need to have a good game in Addition to Kobe for them to take the Win. The return of Ron Artest, I predict not to have much of an Impact Unless this game goes down to the wire Last minute of play, he can turn the intensity up in the last minutes of play to get a win. I think his return will not be a huge impact as it will cause confusion/change for both teams.
My Choice Lakers-60% Chance. Denver- 40% Chance to win.

2. CLIPPERS VS. GRIZZ.-
Also a Very Tough choice with my choice again slightly going to the home team Memphis. Home court really being a Huge advantage in Game 7 more than any other game in the series, Especially in a series that has been so Very close, and Memphis having an amazing crowd/support. Also leaning slightly towards Grizz. due to the Unknown of intensity and Health % of the Two main Stars In Blake Griffin and CHRIS PAUL. Memphis appears to be near 100% health wise, rejuvenated my the home crowd will give them an edge, Gasol is playing Great and Consistent, along with Randolph Consistent. Chris Paul and Griffin Not so Consistent in the last 2-3 Games.. plus they are banged up. Due to not Knowing what I am getting out of Blake Griffin and Chris Paul. I give the slight edge to the Grizzlies, even though I truly think the Clippers are a better team, they are banged up: Chauncey Billups - OUT, C. Butler- fractured hand, CP3- Groin strain, B.Griffin- Aggervated Knee.(KEY PLAYERS INURED, or not 100%) Deandre Jordan is being outplayed and not showing up in this series.
MY Choice Grizzlies 55% to win. Clippers 45% Chance to win.

I really Do not not where or Who the SPARK and STandout Players will be for each team, Each team as Multiple players to Give them the spark to win. Of Course Kobe will have a Big Scoring Game regardless, But needs Someone else to Have the Big Game for them to Win, OTHER than KOBE, Who will be big for Lakers and Step up for them to Win?
In the Other Series WHO WILL BE THE STANDOUT PLAYER OF GAME 7? To will their Team to the Win?

So Let me know Who Players of the Game 7's are Going to be BESIDES KOBE. We know what we will get out of Kobe, But they need more from Someone else in addition to a 25+pt. game from Kobe. Or will It Be Someone from the NUGGETS?

I hope the Staples Centre has seen the last of its NBA action for this season

I find it Very Unlikely that both of the LA Teams Lose but it is possible especially in Game 7's Both could win or Both could be eliminated..

Well that sums up every possibility

I see big games from Ty Lawson and Rudy Gay. Also OJ Mayo will finally kick start his post season.

Beat LA!

Amen!

[Ross.Virant]

Yea, I hope Denver Can Pull It out.. Its Gonna BE TOUGH though, I Agree I look for Ty Lawson to be Big He Must play as good or better than he did in Game 6, for them to win. Gm 6 was a playoff career high.

I am a huge Lakers fan.However,I hope they lose and here's why.1st off...they have absolutely No chance versus OKC due to their poor bench and lack of heart.I see No drive in this team whatsoever.
Secondly...there's also a rumor that Brown might be out if they lose this game 7.That kind of excites me because he's a horrible coach and motivator.To actually have to see him on the sideline for 3 more years is extremely depressing to me!!!!

I believe you are correct If they advance to play OKC LA Lakers Have a Small Chance against OKC. I think Denver matches Up Better With OKC and would push that series further... But still think either way it would be OKC's Series.
I have OKC the Favorite to win the West w/ a bit of an edge on the Spurs, But Denver would Give OKC more of a challenge I think.
BUT CORPORATE NBA WANTS KOBE VS. DURANT... SO LOOKOUT for some Questionable Calls for/in the Lakers Favor Tonight.. I Guarantee there WILL BE SOME. In Lakers Favor, Maybe deciding factor...?
