3	Congrats Lakers! Whoo hoo! It is so nice to have at least one team at Staples win a championship. May this championship inspire a certain hockey team the Lakers share a building with. lol

That game was mismanaged and poorly executed in my opinion but out of the 5 games the Magic played well in 3 of them so I wouldn't say it was to easy.

Can anyone else understand why Van Gundy didn't put Pietrus and Alston in sooner? I mean when ur down 9 or so get ur studs in stop the bleeding. Bringing them in when down 18 is pointless and lastly don't put JJ Reddick on Kobe that's just stupid.
