Devil Dish


Dear Lakers,

Sorry, but you have no shot against the Suns.

Yes, you played great defense in the first half of game one.

Yes, Kobe Bryant was absolutely ridiculous in the first half of game one.

But, the key phrase in both of those sentences is first half.

You can't keep up with the Suns for 48 minutes, and that point was proven Sunday. Eventually, the offense will come alive.

On Sunday, it was Leandro Barbosa leading the way for the Suns. On Tuesday, it might be Nash, or Amare, or The Matrix.

Pick your poison.

Kobe can't do it all for an entire game. With the exception of Lamar Odom, the rest of your starting lineup can't even compete with Phoenix's best bench player.

Get ready for another first-round exit, Lakers, but this time it won't take seven games.

You'll win one game in the series, at most.
