Celtics in 6

Its painful to have to witness this re-match of the 80s, when a rematch of the 70s would have set me into a euphoric state (Suns/Cs- 1976). I have next year, haha... But with the this year I have to take my bias out of it. I despise the Lakers and Kobe Bryant. Just because he's winning people overlook all his character flaws and say he's better than Michael Jordan. I can write an essay off the top of my head using statistical data as my evidence that MJ is so much better than Kobe that they shouldn't even be in the same discussion.

So my wanting the Lakers to lose and my predicting the outcome of the Finals has to be fair.

Its hard for to me say that the Celtics with homecourt advantage, a team built to win NOW, and at least 2 superstars that have come full-circle to reach this point can lose it now... Even if Kobe is on the other side. And as for the Lakers running through the Western Conference, I think they aren't as good as everybody thinks. I say that because of their lack of experience.

Expereince can be poise. That's why I think whoever wins the first game on Thursday wins the championship. Celtics are gritty, determined, and they sacrifice their offense and individual statistics for defensive supremacy and wins. I really hope they win. There goes my unbiased opinion.
