I agree with Lakers in 5 as well especially with the way they're playing. As long as the Lakers can contain Dwight in the post without having to double team him and leaving Orlando's shooters open for shots, then I don't see the Magic causing the Lakers too many problems. They haven't proved that they can hit contested 3's over and over again and sooner or later Orlando is going to die by the 3 just as they've been living by it to get to this point.
If Phil decides to start Bynum and Gasol in the front court it'll still be alright since they can exploit their size advantage on offense at the beginning of the game to impose their will and Odom can provide the spark off the bench. Odom will still play more minutes towards the end of the game anyway so starting Bynum won't be a big problem at all.
