The NBA is fixed. They rigged it so it would be Lakers vs. Celtics for the ratings. They knew the fans didn't want to see the Spurs in the title game again, so they screwed them out of game 4 of the western finals. They also wanted the Lakers and Celtics to get better, so they allowed BOTH teams to pull off lop-sided trades to strengthen their respective ballclubs. Am I wrong? :smt102
kenny, your sig made me feel a little better.. :wink: Tony-- you may have something there-- Celtics/Lakers is one of the iconic rivalries of the Reagan era.. I'm sure David Stern (and the respective team owners) doesn't mind seeing it revisited in the finals.. Myself, i was looking forward to a "revisit" of the 1988 finals when it was Lakers/Pistons-- only I wanted a different ending.. A few weeks after those finals, I went with a cousin to a nationwide youth summit on a college campus; some of the kids in our Detroit group wanted to fight the L.A. contingent...
Shit on the Pistons and the Celtics, Los Angeles is bringing it home baby!!! GO LAKERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
