So I missed the deadline of the article due to an extraordinarily busy day yesterday. So here you go -- a day late but I let it rip. Enjoy.

LOS ANGELES:

Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum…

WAKE UP! You’re in the Western Conference Finals.

I mean Bynum is playing with about as much enthusiasm as a porn actress filming her 12th scene in nine days. Meanwhile, Odom is having the best “pursuing the inbound throw-in” playoff series in the history of the NBA. But that’s about all he has done productively. But 50 percent of the credit goes to Trevor Arizza for anticipating the throw and actually stealing the basketball.

The two have combined for a whopping 66 points in 201 minutes. How in the world does a legitimate 7’ 11” and 6’ 10” player not produce more? A guy from Glenn College, who has more tattoos than Carey Hart and Dennis Rodman combined and hair that takes away from Donald Trump’s fame, is manufacturing a better playoff series than the two of them together (Chris “Birdman” Anderson).

Get out of Hugh Hefner’s crib Andrew and Lamar… well… just start your trade campaign.

CLEVELAND:

Le”brick” James get your tee times set up because the Cleveland Cavaliers are finished after an overtime Game 4 loss last night (116-114 ORL leads 3-1).

Take the emotion out of it, and say it out loud. I am going to smoke a cigarette. Does that sound right? Read the Orlando Magic’s roster out loud then read Cleveland’s. If you are in a pick up game and you had both rosters right in front of you, who are you going to access on your team… more Cavs players or more Magic players? With the exception of Lebron James and Mo Williams, who is only good when he’s “on,” who else are you taking over Dwight Howard, Rashard Lewis, Rafer Alston, and of course, the “Dirty Turk” himself, Hedo Turkoglu?

I hope you understand where I am going with this.

Orlando is the better team. Yes, Cleveland was fantastic against the West, but if they somehow-someway make a historical comeback, remember the four teams they lost to (New Orleans, Houston, and Los Angeles twice). Cleveland is your “Fools Gold” of the playoffs.

When you game plan against one guy, it’s pretty easy to figure out. It boils down to players. You may call him “King James,” but he may never wear the crown.

And where did this spectacular Cleveland defense go? That’s all anyone ever wanted to talk about coming into the playoffs. That statement was a gigantic myth. The first eight games the Cavs allowed an average of just 78 points, now they are playing a couple bonified superstars, and the Magic are lighting it up for an average of 100 points a game. Michael Cooper could slow down Larry Bird and Joe Dumars could slow down Michael Jordan. Ok. So Lebron is going to get “his.” It’s the question if his supporting cast can be more productive than toe lent.

Don’t forget that these two franchises are here to stay. But I would consider Orlando the second most attractive city outside Los Angeles for the next decade. They have an uprising superstar, gorgeous weather, no state tax, and Disney World. Orlando has the best opportunity to win multiple championships, not Cleveland – they need to lay some new carpet down and fabricate their team because Bron Bron’s supporting cast “ain’t” doing “it” for him.
