I just don't use smileys

My apologies. I'm used to too many smilies, your style is refreshing.

If I am wrong, I'll admit it, I just know (based on 35 years of watching the sport) I won't be.

All I am saying to you is that your reasoning for why the MAgic will win has no precedent outside of the '04 finals of happening.

Ready to be a big man and own up to my predictions? :)

Magic in 7. Going to be a great series.

Backup pick is Lakers in 5.

No. I just have absolutely no idea how the Lakers will play against Dwight. I think the Lakers will make it close no matter what, but if Bynum doesn't have a big series, I see the Magic winning it.

I don't think Bynum needs a big series, he just needs to stay on the court. Kendrick bloody Perkins held him in check, so if Bynum doesn't get cheap fouls he should be able to do the same.

That's a very big "if" going off of the what we've seen so far and how we've seen the refs handle Dwight.

It takes a HUGE, GIGANTIC Man to admit when he's wrong, and I am that man. But Obviously the Magic can't win the title right?
