I personally think the experience that matters more is easily one deep run because you get the experience of winning a series and so on and so forth. Comin out of the West before the injury I would have said Houston but right now Im just not sure how deep they can go. I personally like Dallas once they get adjusted to Kidd but they only go as far as Bass & George take them.

I don’t think they need Bynum to win a ring. But it would be a better if they had him. What’s up with Ariza.

E$, hard to argue with 1st in the West.

Anyway, who do YOU have coming out of the West? I figure it’ll be the Lakers, but there are obviously about 9 good choices.

Lakers have all their hope in #24, & in the West it won’t get them far.

Bust Jlaze, who are they killing?? Sac-Town, Portland? come on….

That’s what my point was. I thought you were slighting me when I said Deron had played the same amount of games (12 over 3 vs. 17 in 1). I wonder which matters more? Lots of 1st round games (a la T-Mac and Pau) or a single (or limited) deep run (like Joe Johnson, Paul Pierce, Deron, etc)?

dagwaller – THats just one Laker and to be honest Gasol may have had limited games but he played a lot of them again SA which means he’s aware of how the best play and what their going to do to him so I like their chances

And I think we’re in agreement that the Lakers have a great chance to win the whole thing. E$’s post was saying that their lack of playoff experience was the problem; my point was that every team has a couple players with lack of playoff experience.

2Easy, Pau has played 12 playoff games over 3 years, Deron has played 17 in 1. My point wasn’t who was “WAY more effective”; my point was to respond to someone saying that the Lakers were inexperienced in the playoffs.

Quite frankly the Lakers can win it all without Bynum but his prescence will make it all the easier. Now for those of you who are gettin on his case, Bynum’s 20. He has at least 15 more years in the league and should not jepordize his career for a run rite now. Kobe blazed him but not with the intention of helpin lets all be aware of that, it helped but I dont think Kobe was doin it to be nice. I saw someone write that Deron has as much experience in the playoffs as Gasol… I hope you werent serious. Deron’s played almost double the games in the playoffs in 1 year (About 19 or 20)that Gasol has his whole career (about 8 or 12) and has been WAY more effective. All this being said I hope Bynum gets healthy quick because I can hear the excitement in his voice about playin wit Lamar and Pau on a digusting frontline that should honestly block out the rim like an eclipse
