When it comes to these NBA finals, I can't stand to see the joy of those Laker fans. They are so cocky, and they think their team is actually the best in basketball. There are fans that say that the Magic are an easy match up for the Lakers, and after watching the first four games they are still insisting. I believe that the Lakers not only lost last year to the Celtics, but they might have also came in contact with the "four leaf clovers" because they are nothing but lucky in these playoffs.
They beat the Rockets, in which Yao Ming was missing in action. They got very lucky against the Nuggets (Blame the refs). Now they are getting even luckier against the Magic. First game should have went to Lakers, without a doubt but the second game should have went to the Magic. The Magic missed a lay up with .6 seconds to go. in which Gasol should have been called for goaltending. Even the Lakers head coach, Phil Jackson, admitted it. Game three should have went to the Magic without a doubt, but game four was a different story. If it wasn't for Dwight Howard missing both free throws, when he only had to make one to secure the win, the Lakers would have never won.
The Lakers are up 3-1 but it can easily be the other way. The Magic are a great match up for the Lakers without a doubt! I still do not think the championship is out of reach for the Magic. Just like the Lakers have proved, luck is a big factor in the NBA, and if the Magic has that luck bounce their way, then the series can flip to their side.
