If Nelson plays, that could be good or bad for the Lakers. If he's healthy, it's bad. If he's not 100 percent, it's potentially good. I remember wanting the Lakers to trade up for him in the draft that year. Too bad they didn't.
The three point shooting scares me, but the Lakers have the advantage inside (despite Howard). The Magic can't match their size. Then again, if the Lakers have Bynum and Gasol in at the same time, it means Gasol is going to have to defend Lewis or Turkoglu, which doesn't bode well for the Lakers. But there's also that Kobe guy. However, Pietrius is a good defender, so it should be fun either way.
This could be a very entertaining series that could easily go six or seven games. If Orlando is consistently knocking down the three ball, it could very well swing their way.
