Why I don't want the Lakers to win
The 2006 NBA Playoffs begin this Sunday (Manila time) and while my fellow bloggers here are posting their thoughts about who will win what awards and stuff, this is what I offer for the postseason.
Every day beginning today (I hope I don't run out of ideas), I'm going to feature a Playoff team and the reason/s I don't want the said team to win--a particular round, the whole thing, whatever. Of course, the Phoenix Suns are exempted here, since this is the team I'm hoping to go all the way. (I leave it to the rest of the guys to do the Suns-bashing, just to be fair.)
Our featured team for today is the storied franchise, the Los Angeles Lakers.
This one's pretty easy.
No, it's not a Laker-hater thing. Their non-dominance the past couple seasons have allowed me to go easy on them. I actually rooted for the Lakers at some points this season. And it isn't a Kobe thing, either. I sort of considered this year as one of redemption for the guy and I've come to respect him and his talents (finally).
The real reason I don't want to see the Lakers winning in these Playoffs? Simple:
SUNS LOVE, BABY!!!
The Lakers face my Phoenix Suns in the first round. What else can you expect from me? :)
See y'all tomorrow!

There are only three teams in the west that can match the offensive firepower of the Suns: the San Antonio Spurs (when all are healthy), and the Dallas Mavericks. Add to that those two teams are play excellent defense.
The Suns are indeed lucky that they probably won't be facing either until the Western Conference Finals.

oh, and as a bonus, i might even consider Nash as the Most Improved Player for the season, for his improved play... and since medjo konti yung mga nagstep up ng play nila to be awarded MIP (David West astig ka)
