Default Game Four

Does anybody know who won? I assume it was the Lakers. They had a 24 point lead in the second half when I turned it off. There is no way the Celtics could come back from that kind of deficit on the road.

Are you saying that basketball is still going?

The Lakers led 35-14 at the end of the first quarter. That 21-point lead was an NBA Finals record.

I think it's safe to assume that the Zenmaster, the MVP, and his roster of 12 healthy players did not blow the greatest start in NBA Finals history in front of their racous home crowd.

After all, Kobe is better than Michael Jordan.

Guess the Celts (and hey, maybe even the top 3 in the East) might just be pretty good. I think all the Westophiles are coming to the realization that the West was overrated and the cream in the East just a smidge underrated (I was one of them so I'm not bragging).

You lost all credibility when you said you'd rather watch Euro's kick a ball than Americans hoop it up. Please cease commenting on basketball, politics, apple pie, and the red white and blue.

Last time I had the TV on the Lakers were up by 20 about midway through the third quarter. Argh... Lakers brought their A-game today I guess.

No way the Lakers blew that lead. MVP, Coach of the Centuray, Bynum waiting to play next year, Jack on the sidelines. Now way the Lakers blew that lead.

Q: How good were Michael Jordan and Shaquille O'Neal?

A: So good that they made the Zen master look like a great coach.
