LAKERS owned the Celtics.  
Game one - was all Lakers.  
Chris Rock gets a verbal smack from Phil Jackson. Awesome!

Lakers are gonna take this in five.  
My prognostication.

I said Lakers in six (and maybe not that close), and I’m sticking with it. But I could see five. A healthy Kevin Garnett would balance things out a lot. But this is what happens to an old team.
