NBA Playoffs and Finals

Finally the Miami Heat has won the elusive O'Brien Trophy. After years of melting down in playoff games and just continuing to be MJ's bitch. Miami finally took its place in NBA History as World Champions. And speaking of the NBA, this years playoff games were off the chain and entertaining. Who would have thought that the year Miami wins its championship. The brackets had the Los Angeles Clippers advancing to the second round and giving the Phoenix Suns fits. Who would have thought that the Lakers would go up three games to one on the same Phoenix team and choke it all away. And to add salt to a open wound, now hafta watch or hear clips of Shaq going on stage and screamin', "CAN U DIG IT?" like the gang leader of RIFFs (The Warriors). Laker fans remember that. Although noone yelled back RIFFS, we pretty much dug the fact that the Lakers had Shaq and Kobe and hopes of more than three championships being won.

Another thing, Laker fan needs to stop hatin' and appreciate. After Magic, Laker fan forgot that on one season, like this one, the Clippers were the team. They didn't have Shaq, but they had Cedric Cebellos aka Club Ced and Nick "Gangsta Hoopa" Van Axel running the sequel to Showtime called The Lake Show. The Lake Show consisted of forearm shivers from Van Axel, two returns from Magic, as a coach and player and oh yeah, Dennis Rodman. Laker fan is upset that the Diesel didn't come in to camp in shape and paid no attention to the fact that this man brought with him fifty or more wins a season. The only time Shaq did not reach fifty wins is his rookie season with Orlando and a strike shortened season. Other than that, you can count on fiddy wins and a bunch of missed free throws. Laker fan also sided with Kobe. So instead of having fiddy wins, guaranteed, fans were okay with one below .500 season and another barely making the playoffs, ahhh thats Kobe's team.

Meanwhile, on the other coast, Heat fans not only get to see topless hot women in thong bikini bottoms, but a hot championship team as promised by da diesel with big help from the guy mentioned after Lebron James and Carmelo Anthony. I guess until those two guys average 30 plus points in the finals, let alone get there. The order is one, Dwyane Wade and you can toss in the other two where you see fit.

Congrats Miami.
