The first game of the NBAFinals tips off tonight. Sports writers from across Africa preview the finals series and predict whether the Lakers or the Heat will become champions.

: It’ll be the Lakers in six. The force and the momentum they’ve gathered throughout the playoffs make them look pretty unstoppable. Obviously James and Davis are the key players. Davis has been the star of the playoffs: He’s a solid defender and a beast offensively and has been unguardable at times. James is playing like a 25-year old, not a 35-year old, and is clearly inspired to add his name to the list of Lakers legends who’ve won an NBA title.

Since the start of the playoffs, I have been banking on the experience and the collective of the Lakers. I use the same logic here. I think James and the rest of the team have more than enough experience and talent to achieve their goal. Now, it won’t be as easy as in the conference finals. The Miami Heat are a very good team and will be very difficult to beat. The Heat can win at least two games in the finals. But in the end, I vote 4-2 in favour of the Lakers.
