Hey Mark Jackson, I have a question — can we stop with all these Michael Jordan/Kobe Bryant comparisons? Please?
Now, it’s true the Finals series is far from over and there is still a chance Kobe Bean could [...]

Wow. What a comeback.
That’s what I was left with last night after watching the Celtics climb out of holes that were, in some cases, 21, 24 and 20 points deep to capture Game 4 — and control of the series — 97-91. While the comeback was certainly one for the ages, Boston started [...]

While teams HAVE come back from a 3-1 deficit in the Playoffs before, most get the feeling that if Boston wins just one of these road games in LA, they’ll be in a great position to finish the job when they get back to Boston. That’s why I expect to see the Lakers come [...]

A lot was made about Curt Schilling’s comments about Kobe Bryant’s demeanor after Schilling blogged about attending Game 2 of the NBA Finals. In case you don’t quite recall; essentially, Schilling said Bryant was extremely hard on his teammates and apparently displayed noticeable levels of aggravation towards the other Lakers, including some sailor-like cussing.

Apparently, everyone in Hollywood and the entertainment industry are fans of the Los Angeles Lakers — that or they have lots of money to blow on court-side seats and know they’ll be seen by all the world. I mean, what else can explain Hillary Duff on the floor of an NBA Finals game? [...]

While our friends at MixMakers.net aren’t really fans of Paul Pierce or the Celtics, even they have to be happy about tonight’s Game 3 of the NBA Finals — even if the team from Boston is involved. So what can we expect tonight? Is Kobe going to go off as he tries to:
A. [...]

With thanks to With Leather for pointing this out to me, I have to say this is just wrong. What we have here is a turncoat to the highest degree; a person so low, they’d be shot for desertion if they were in a branch of the military. What I am talking about [...]

After allowing a 22-point 3rd quarter lead evaporate down to a nail-biting 104-102 margin with 22 seconds left in the final quarter, the Celtics held on to take 2-0 lead over the Lakers in their best-of-seven series. The Lakers, who were aided by hitting seven 3-pointers in the fourth, almost stole Game 2 and [...]

Well, it wins Game 1s, at least. Just ask the Lakers who were held to their lowest point total of the Playoffs, scoring only 88 points. Furthermore, LA got contributions from players that normally propel them to a win. Lamar had 14 and 6 while Gasol posted 15 and 8. Hell, [...]
