It looks like LA will fumble away this title, and Detroit is there to fall on the ball. Enjoy it D-town, and let's see if you can back it up next year. But Shaq-KB's lil season-long cat-fight destroyed this team long before Detroit had anytyhing to do with it.

I agree with you on the above points, re: about how the LA Team is "crumbling inside and out", esp. w/ that "previous" feud b/w Shaq and Kobe. My problem with the team now is that while we know everyone wants to end their career w/ a ring, the Lakers have too many Chiefs on thier team (Shaq, Kobe, and now Gary and Karl Malone
)...it won't end pretty (as evidenced by Phil Jackson's being cornered about it last night). Also, I don't think the Lakers are losing simply b/ of their "fumbling"--Detriot has broken down their defense. PERYID
The Lakers think they are the isht (and many of their fans are obnoxious--I'll bet they were planning their victory celebration after the Lakers' Game 2 win
)...that's what will cost them in the end...
And I'm not hatin'...just being honest
ETA: Steeltrap, no you're not included in the "obnoxious Lakers Fans (i.e. many of whom are old Bulls fans from the MJ Era) category".
