I'll take the weakest team of the group and that's the Hornets, we'll sweep them. The Blazers could easily take us to six, maybe even seven games. Gerald Wallace is looking comfortable and Brandon Roy looked really good based on the few minutes I watched him play last night. The Grizzles could probably take us to 6 games best case scenario, just because they have quality perimeter defenders who would force Kobe to be a volume scorer. They just don't have enough offensive fire power without Rudy Gay to stay up with us.
