Ain't no way Phil can go with Pau + Bynum in the starting 5 IMO.
Who guards Rashard?
LO should realistically be reinserted into the starting lineup.

with that lame one handed hook shot? gasol is a lot faster than Z and taller, more skilled than varejao and wallace combined. let's see if howard can contain pau... cause i dont think so. he's the only inside player basically that the magic has. lewis and hedo are only shooters, and dont use their height
with that being said Pau Gasol and Varejao are both soft!

See this is what is interesting to me. While Bynum of Gasol may not be able to gaurd Rashard on the perimeter I dont think he can check them in the post. Phil is a good coach and I think it tells a lot about the team to see who adjust to who. Sometimes making a team adjust to you shows you have confidence inwhat you do.
I hope the Lakers win the series but I mean after seeing Orlando this post season it wouldn't surprise me if they took it.

I think the first two game are must wins for the Lakers, because of the 2-3-2 format. We know they can win on the road and we're the best road team thisseason, but they must win the first 2 games and protect homecourt. Orlando has many shooters and has a better post presence in Dwight Howard, the key would beto get him in foul trouble. I think this time around, Kobe won't let them team lose. With that being said, Lakers in 6 or 7. Let's go LakeShow!!!
