Good luck to the rest.
Could it be a Dallas vs. Miami Finals?

Writing has been on the wall for some time as the Lakers have been playing poorly since late March. Their bench production is one of the worst in the entire league, just never matched that of last years. They continually go away from getting the ball into the post to Bynum or Gasol, particularly when Kobe goes into long stretches of one on one mode.
The biggest problem with the Lakers though I believe is that they don't get very much production from their point guard position. Fisher doesn't score much anymore or even get assists and what used to be his biggest asset, defense, is now a liability as he just doesn't have the speed anymore to stay with the top tier point guards. Blake was supposed to be a nice backup and maybe even starter at some point, but he's just never performed as they would have liked.
The games have all been very close in the box score except for one area, 3 pointers made, as its been the difference in every game. Lakers need a quality point guard with some range who can hit the 3 and better facilitate the offense.
