2009 Playoffs Highlights - Day 34

We're going to the finals (*singing).

Oh yeah! Way to close out the series. The Lakers were almost perfect for this game. They came with a mission and stay focused all the way to the end. Everybody contributed in their way, Ariza early on scored 10 points in the first quarter then Pau Gasol and Kobe Bryant took over this game with their triangle offense and their inside-outside post-up game. The Nuggets defense had no answer for them, Carmelo was once again struggling from the field. JR Smith tried to pick up the slack but it wasn't enough to counter the Lakers physical defense.

So we're heading back to the NBA Finals and this time we're ready, No Boston for our REVENGE, we'll take anybody. Which ever team, Cleveland or Orlando joins us better come ready with their game face on. The whole world wants to see a Kobe vs. Lebron Finals (even Nike and their puppet commercial) and I have to admit they'll be an easier opponent compared to Orlando. Dwight is dominant in the paint it will be a tough challenge for Andrew Bynum and they have great 3-point shooters.

Anyways, time will tell.
