Three guys that the Lakers will be depending heavily on in the playoff are Gasol, Bynum, and Odom and none of them have that high pressure playoff experience yet. I'm still not sold on Gasol and Bynum not getting in each other's way. And I do expect the Suns to get better as they get Shaq into the flow of things. I also expect that Kidd is really going to improve the Mavs. He's going to create tons of open shots and just make the game easier for Dirk and especially for Howard. The Spurs are the champs and know exactly what it takes to win and they still have three guys that are arguably top five at their respective positions in the league. Right now, I would rank them:
1. Spurs
2. Mavs
3. Lakers
4. Suns
