However Bryant has that infamous gay flail that he does on drives, almost always gets the call, so I don't doubt he'll get his fair share.
Hopefully the series doesn't disappoint. But if one team has the ability to make games a blowout, it's definitely Orlando.
Also: I hope people aren't underestimating Bryant's ability to choke on the Finals platform. You don't have to look back too far at all to get a prime example of what I'm talking about...

Possibly vs Detroit in the '04 Finals but last year the Lakers as a team fell apart but thats a great Kobe hater quote....Anyways I take Lakers in 7 and i think it will be a classic 7 The Magic will give the Lakers all they can handle with the matchup problems that they present but with the homecourt advantage and the Lakers experience (and they have Kobe call me a "homer" as some of you white boys like to say) im going with the Lakers...But i wont be shocked if the Magic get the upset just dissapointed. And anyone can quote me on this if Kobe can't lead his team to a championship against this Magic team I'm ready to say Lebron>Kobe. Kobe has a great team and they are not playing against three hall of famers and one of the best defenses of all time..So Kobe better get this done
