2010 NBA Playoff Picks UPDATED x4

OK, so it's the night before the NBA Finals and I've been questioning my Celtics pick. Good thing there's still a night left because I am SWITCHING MY PICK TO THE LOS ANGELES LAKERS!!!

I look at Kobe and see him as a determined monster who will do every possible thing in his mind to beat the Celtics to win his 5th title. That 38-point loss in the 2008 Game 6 NBA Finals put a mark in Kobe that has haunted him since and even though he won last year, he wants redemption. I also think this series will be different because Artest will shut down Pierce and Gasol will only improve his game against Garnett/Perkins. The only worry I have is Rondo, but I do think Brown and Farmar will step up and limit Rondo. The last thing that swayed my pick was the fact that the Lakers have home-court advantage this time around for a 2-3-2 format. I don't see the Lakers losing the championship on home court, nor do I see the Celtics winning in 5 or less. Therefore...

LAKERS OVER CELTICS IN 6!!!
NBA Finals MVP: Kobe Bryant
