Wait. I was in LA and I didn't see any celebration... HAHAHAHAHA.
Oh.
Sorry. Poised and unbiased. Ahem.
This series was a disappointment. Not for a Boston fan, obviously, but for a basketball fan. We were sold a bill of goods. And ESPN/ABC are still selling. They tell us The West is the tougher of the two and the Lakers were just worn out. No. The Lakers were not a good team. At all. They are one good player, Kobe.
The East is clearly superior. Cleveland and Detroit, hell even Orlando could have 'beat LA'. But people are still buying what they're selling. Utah, San Antonio, don't forget CP# in Nwarlins, y'all! BOYAAAHHH! Bullshit.
You want a team to watch out for? Orlando.
Sure, Boston has a nail on wood favorites chance of reaching the Finals again, but the east will get tougher (except Detroit. note to self, mail check to Flip Saunders for Pistons implosion and fall of Tayshauwnn Prince). Atlanta isn't going to sit still. Cleveland will make a few moves.
So, although satisfying, when a series ends in six with a 39 point blowout and the media favorite is on the losing end and LOOKS like losers, you have to wonder... did they sell me Boston v Los Angeles?

I would argue, the Celtics had a tougher road. Those games much more physical almost make the Finals a cake walk, physically
I don't think that the Lakers were as bad as they played in the Finals. I think that the matchups weren't in their favor, BUT what really hurt them was Doc Rivers turning into a supercoach and Phil Jackson sticking his thumb up his ass and not doing anything to help Kobe out.
And, yes, it was beyond disappointing. I thought that was going to be the best series in a long, long time, and it was total shit.
