actually, we’re not the same person

2 different people

ooh. . in that case. . you would only have 6 points and he would only have 8, and you’d both be out of contention for a top five spot. . .i’ll keep track of both of your predictions though!

w/e thanks?

i mean theres no real prize for it tho…

That’s not true! You’ll get a nifty TLN Certificate.

if they put james posey on kobe, who is ray allen gonna guard, if allen goes to the bench and they play posey more,they lose offensive power,or if they play small ball lakers are gonna kill them in the paint.

this is my prediction lakers sweep boston 4-0 or lakers win in 5.

Its kind of a stupid game anyway, who else would be closer to a triple double than kobe? And if not kobe then who else but pau?

actually theres 3-4 guys who are capable of being close to a triple double in any one game, Kobe, Gasol, Odom, and to a lesser extent Walton. its the same for every statistic you can predict.

20+ points? Kobe, Odom, Gasol, and to a lesser extent Sasha
10+ rebounds? Odom, Gasol, even Kobe and Vladdy have been known to reach that plateau (and theres Turiaf if given enough minutes)
2+ blocks? Gasol, Kobe, and Turiaf, along with Odom.
3+ 3 pointers? actually, this is the rarest stat, as a lot of our 3point shooters will make 2 consistently, but not often 3. still Kobe, Fisher, Vladdy, Sasha, and Farmar all have the capability to do that on any given night.

to top that off, next year bynum will be in the mix, and he’ll instantly be eligigble for 20+ points, 10+ rebounds and 2+ blocks on any night as well.

so yeah there are some trends you can predict, but thats part of the fun. Predicting is making knowledgeable guesses, and obviously, luck plays a part in it too
