Match preview: Los Angeles Lakers - Phoenix Suns 2010-05-18 (NBA)

Looking to get to a good start

Although they`ve made it to the Western Conference finals, the Lakers` post-season play don`t look as convincing as last year. They`ve beaten the Thunder with a score of 4-2 and swept the Jazz. Andrew Bynum is having some injury problems, so he`ll yet again see limited minutes and he usually opens games well. The Lakers are known for coming out strong, with lots of energy and often have the lead after the first quarter. They are aware of the fact that first quarter is probably the most important one, as the teams try to force each other their tempo. bet now

Rising Suns

The Suns hit their stride late in the February and it looks like they`ve been playing their best basketball down the stretch and into the post-season. In the first round of the playoffs they overcame the Trail Blazers in six games and surprisingly swept the Spurs in the Western Conference semifinals. online betting

Not too good at opening games

The Lakers have pretty much dominated the teams in the opening quarters. They`ve found themselves in the lead after the first quarter in four out of six games against the Thunder and in three out of four games against the Jazz. They have been especially impressive at home, as they`ve had the lead after the first quarter in all five games in the Staples Center. Although they`ve had the upper hand in this segment against the Trail Blazers, they`ve been struggling to get into an early lead against the Spurs. Although they`ve swept the Spurs, Phoenix found itself trailing their opponents in three out of four games. Shouldn`t be any different this time around. bet online
