Well, you know where I'm going here.....
- Kobe and the Lakers utterly rolled over last night....that's the headline for me...yes, I know it's usually inappropriate to cite the losing team in a game such as this (the clincher) but I'm going to go ahead and get it out of the way....Worst effort I've seen in a NBA Finals clincher in my lifetime....All that needs to be said....Now to the champs.... Boston got 90 from the KG/Pierce/Allen/Rondo quartet that has led them all year (including a crazy 20 shot attempts from Rajon Rondo, but I won't kill him, they won by 40).... Granted, it might've helped if 75% of the TVs in America weren't off already but KG turned in a series-saving (for himself) performance with 26 and 14 on 10-18 FG and you already know about Paul Pierce....series MVP who took his game to heights unseen by even the Sports Guy Bill Simmons (who's column is likely to be a must-read today)....
- And so the NBA season ends.... and to the Draft we go! It never stops where I come from....but I always have a hard time going from game talk to draft talk where people like Chad Ford actually become semi-relevant...
Other things...
- Raiders WR Javon Walker robbed and beaten at gunpoint in Vegas.... there seems to be a highly increased likeliness of this kind of thing happening lately....pretty troubling...but something tells me there weren't alot of precautions taken here when reading the time of day/location in Vegas/etc.....Do better folks....
- The day after the Tiger US Open win... I read 3 different pieces mentioning it as either the "likely" or "the" best US Open ever....word? Golf isn't exactly a sport that lacks history....slow it down...and Tiger's 97 Masters win still far outshadows this win simply for what it meant to the sport....
That's it for now...enjoy the day...
