memphis is lot better defensively.............. though they play slow paced offensivly .they do have inside outside game...............P gasol is a monster.................anyway lakers didn't had chance to match-up with memphis as they # 3 team in the southwest lower than # 4 seed.......... beacuse of spurs and mavs.............. denver I agree........worst 3-point shooting team.............. lakers sure have a legiment chance to win against denver if we have got chance to match up with them
