Is it me or is The Lake Show having a Nuggets moment in Game 6.
Oh the irony

The Celtics didnt have to show boat that way.
I’m just saying.

Let me just say that I’m pissed as hell at the Lakers for making me cheer for them in this series and then laying an egg. Instead, we’re stuck with another few months of KG’s faux-tensity and Paul Pierce. Ugh ugh ugh. Not to mention Boston’s “fans”. When do we get pink Celtics hats to go with the Pink Sox hats? Plus, what kind of message does it send to the children that they can grow up in a world where Doc Rivers is a championship coach and Danny Ainge is a championship GM? That’s just wrong.

/off-topic rant.

Jeremy, who are you looking at at #20? I was for Lawson. If we go PG, Chalmers is our only real option. He’s ok, but I don’t get the hype that some have given him. I’ve seen him play CU twice every year for the past few years and never really walked away saying “Wow”. I’m in the best player available category, which will probably be a swingman. I’d love it if Rush fell to us, but doubt that happens. Chris Douglas-Roberts would look good in blue, but he doesn’t fill our outside shooting need. All I want is for us to NOT draft a foreign big man. None of them are worth it that will be there at 20.

I was really torn between the two teams in the finals. I really did not want either to win. Part of me was pulling for the Lakers simply because it makes me nuts when the eastern conference fans argue that the east is just as good as the west because they have won the title three out of the last five seasons.

The everlasting memory I will hold in my mind from these finals is KG’s post game “interview” with Michelle Tafoya. That was awkwardly hilarious as you could tell KG could not put together a single coherent thought yet it was obvious the director kept telling Michelle to keep asking him questions.

Other thoughts:
I found it highly annoying that Sam Cassell was celebrating as if he had accomplished something. All he did was force his way out of LA and sign with the best team in the league. Any of us could have done that.

I thought it was pretty poor the way Boston kept bombing threes and going in for dunks after they broke the press in the last few minutes.

Can somebody tell Paul Pierce to save the Gatorade bath for after the game so they do not have to stop a blowout with 30 seconds left to clean it up.

I got a kick out of when KG, Pierce and Allen were leaving the game for the final time and a camera man was out on the floor filming their group hug Joey Crawford grabbed the camera man by his shirt and drug him off the floor. I do not really know why, but that made me giggle.

The other funny thing I remember from the games was during game 3 or 4 coming out of a timeout the camera was on Mark Jackson, Van Gundy and Mike Breen when the game started up again. Van Gundy scowled at the camera and nodded his head towards the court. When they did not change the shot to show the action his scowl grew bigger and he not so subtly gestured towards the floor and finally the director changed the shot to the action. I just loved the condescending look on JVG’s face when they were showing the commentators instead of the game.

I guess that is my finals recap.
