NBA Finals Preview: Los Angeles Lakers

Well we are doing the same thing for the Lakers as they are in the NBA Finals for a record 30th time and Kobe Bryant seeks the oppertunity of winning his fourth NBA Title. If Bryant were to win his fourth title, I truly believe that Kobe is a top five NBA player of all time. So lets give some keys for the Lakers to win the NBA Finals.

1. Kobe Bryant and his Teammates- I think the biggest thing the Lakers need to have is for Kobe Bryant to make sure that he is passing the ball. They have some insane stat that if Bryant shoots the ball less then twenty times, the Lakers are 49-1. And if he shoots over thirty-five times, the Lakers record is around .500. I think the writing is on the wall for Bryant to make sure that he needs to create instead of doing it himself because thats how the Magic beat the Fighting LeBrons.

2. Lamar Odom- This one is clear cut because we have all seen the Lakers when Odom shows up then we have seen the Los Angeles when Odom doesnt eat enough gummy bears. If you havent heard the story about Odom's love for sweets, I highly suggest you read it. (Odom is one of the best characters in the NBA from his love for sweets to his love of living on the beach, Lamar you are the man.)

3. Andrew Bynum Attempt at Becoming a Man-Now I realize that Bynum is a fresh twenty-one year old but he needs to grow up quick. Bynum could become a huge X-Factor if he figures out a way to stop Dwight Howard. He needs to show to Howard right away that he isnt a soft player. I hope Bynum puts Howard on his ass in the first half just to show whose house it is. If Bynum can do that, the Lakers will be looking very good.
