If Mitch kupchak does his job right, the Lakers might trade Odom for Artest since no team is stupid enough to want Rad, Mihm, and farmar in exchange for the best defensive player in the league.  Depending on the salary cap, the Lakers may pass their first round pick for the like of Baron Davis or Elton Brand, as the rumor about Gilbert Arenas wanting to join the Lakers is not gonna happen.  Elton brand would bring defenses to the Lakers poor defenses, and is already playing in the same arena.  This would be the best move for both team, since Brand does not want to spend his whole NBA career without a championship ring, and the laker Defense is lackluster at best.  This year, the Lakers were lucky they didn't have to face the Phoenix sun in the opening round of the playoff.  The Celtic were also lucky to play the Cavalier as well.  

There is talk that Phil Jackson might on, and the only coach that would replace him is Avery Johnson, who lead the Mav to the NBA final in 2006.  The fact that Phil was too laid back and may to many bad coaching decision show us that his time with us has worn out.  When the lakers had an 11 point lead in game 4, he take out fisher and a few minute afterward, the Lakers were down by 5 point.  The Celtic was on a 16-4 run.  What kind of coach play Walton instead of Turiaf, and play Rad instead of Ariza?  His Phil had the aggression like Doc River, and the right coaching job in the final, the Lakers would have won.  Why would you take Kobe off Pierce when the Lakers were leading?

Opinion and about the final for next year.

I'll wait to see what happens with the Celtics bench to say whether or not they're the favorites to make it out of the East

but really, they don't have much competition there, anyway, so it's very likely that they would be

as for the Lakers, once they sort out Andrew's contract problems, I would hope that they try to ship off Odom, as there isn't much outside shooting to spread the floor with a starting lineup of Bynum-Gasol-Odom-Bryant-Fisher... Bryant's getting older, though that's really not a concern

San Antonio is trying to sign Corey Maggette, and if they do it'll make you think that the whole "odd year championships" thing is true... they're an older team and they need more offense, and Maggette will help them there... wouldn't be surprised to see them in the Finals vs. the Celtics
