Let alone to the NBA Finals.
You want an underdog?
The Purple and Gold would have been your best pick to fail this season. They started out with a miserable 2-10 record and very little mojo.
The fact that they parlayed that start into contending for the Western Conference Championship is amazing.
Today the Lakers play the #1 seed Denver whose been the highest scoring team in the playoffs thus far.
Once again, the Lakers are an underdog and rightly so. They're playing a highly disciplined team coached by Mike Malone, arguably one of the best coaches in the league.
While the Nuggets are #1 in offense in the post season, the Lakers are #1 in defense making for a classic clash.
Did I mention that I love underdogs?
The combo of being a Laker fan for over 60 years and my love for underdogs have come together to form my prediction that the Lakers will win the series in 6 games.
As it stands, whatever happens we can be assured this is going to be a great series for basketball fans.
