The Magic vs Lakers are this years NBA finals contenders, but they could only be one NBA champion. So the best way to determine a champion at this time is by evaluating the current match-ups. Let’s look at who is guiding Kobe in the Finals; the Magic will assign Courtney Lee, a rookie 6-5 guard. Kobe cant wait for the NBA finals to start he, wants one more ring, and Lee simply can’t hold Kobe. He is too small, too young and Kobe is too great. This year in the playoffs Kobe is averaging 29.6 against good defenders from the western conference and Lee is an average defender, expect Kobe to have a gigantic series.
The only in which the Magic have is at the center position. Although the Magic have Howard, the Lakers do have three players that are over 6-10 and we play enormous amount of minutes. The in which I am talking about are Lamar Odom, Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum. Andrew Bynum will challenge and make Howard work for his points because of his physically ability and height. Pau Gasol will also help, he is an 7- footer that could gave Howard some difficulties. Lamar Odom has a big heart and will compete to his best ability in guarding Howard. But unlike in last series Howard is forced to help more and guard someone who could score the ball in Bynum, Gasol or Odom. In the Coaching match-up the Lakers have the greatest coach of all-time, while the Magic have a good coach. The Lakers have a edge in this coaching match-up.
