Do we need the rest of the Regular Season???

December 19, 2008

Twenty five games into the season and so far its a 3 team race.  The Lakers, Cavaliers, and the Celtics all have twenty or more wins at this point.  The Lakers have already sealed the deal with the Western Conference and only the Celtics have a larger lead in their division.  At this point, there are only 5 teams in the Eastern Conference that are above .500 in win percentage which means that the Celtics could probably clinch a playoff spot before the all star break.  With the Lakers being 8 games ahead of 8th place Utah Jazz, this could mean a playoff clinch in the next couple of months.  I will make my predictions now that it will be a Kobe – Lebron showdown in the NBA Finals.  It could possibly be a rematch between the Lakers and the Celtics but I am going to go with the upset in the playoffs.  I think the Celtics will go into the playoffs with home court advantage but I think Lebron James is about as clutch as a player can be in the NBA.  Look for Kobe to go off towards the end of the season.  I am looking forward to the Christmas matchup of Lakers vs. Celtics.
