Lakers Back in NBA Finals, Spurs Gone Fishin'



Was "Lost" Season finale incredible or what? Oops my bad, wrong post or may be not since the Spurs got "lost" last night and couldn't find their way to greatness. Kobe Bryant and the Lakers did, they're back on top, proved once again why they had the best record in the West. We are on a mission, no team can stop us, we are four wins away from the crown, NBA World Champions (actually it's only in the U.S, but that's the title, anyways). What a great game? It doesn't matter how you start a playoff game it's how you finish. The Lakers didn't miss the opportunity of closing the Spurs last night, the first half looked like we were heading back to San Antonio but Phil Jackson keeps impressing me with his coaching strategies, we were being led by 17 points in the second quarter with Kobe on the bench (getting his beauty rest lol!) but he kept the second unit on, trusting them and letting them figure this out on their own and they did. They carried the load, helped reduced the margin and Kobe just finished them off in the second half, he just killed them with tough shots, tied the game and we never looked back after that.
Now We're the Western Conference Champions, which we don't care about, we want the big one, the gold one. It's going to be an historical finals against Boston and a revenge against Detroit (they eliminated us back in 2004). I just want Detroit so I can hopefully make a trip to one of those expensive finals game. (I'm begging already for tickets by the way)

Seriously though "Lost" was crazy last night. How can you make an island disappear?
