If they are played the beautiful west way, Lakers win. Regardless, I don't know or care who will win.
C's might not be a physical team (but Pierce and Posey), but they are used to the east style play, esp after seeing Cavs and Pis. They should keep it that way.
Lakers like to play a smooth game for sure, but after Jazz and Spurs (the only 2 west teams playing east games), they are prepared to play ugly games too.
Its just like old Pats, how did they win (esp against Colts)? By running and by playing D. and by short and non-spectacular passing. By grinning it out. C's need to do that as well. Pierce is the one of the best to score in 肉搏 situations.
Lakers, meanwhile, should not be fooled by the media, and think they are the current Pats. If they do fall into the dynasty crap, heihei, they will fall like Pats.
